What PDF viewer are you using, and can it chop the margins off each page automatically (or at least have a fixed viewport/zoom (bonus points if the viewport understands left/right gutters))
The problem I'm having is that most of my technical PDFs have giant margins so the viewers I've tried on the nook touch have the text scrunched in a tiny box in the middle of the screen and I have to zoom in every single page, individually, to read them. Turn the page and it goes back to "fit page to screen" and repeat.
And I liked how they left out whatever it inserts (or deletes from) the httpd.conf file
On cPanel-based servers, instead of adding modules or modifying the Apache configuration, the attackers started to replace the Apache binary (httpd) with a malicious one.
So tell us what exactly it inserts (or deletes from) the httpd.conf file without modifying the Apache configuration?
then anytime there is a car wreck, or someone stumbles and falls, or even hiccups, attorneys will be subpoena Google digging for media to prove or disprove the case. Google won't store video or audio data for that simple reason alone.
Google's goal will be to have computers search all that media for the cost of electricity. If an attorney wants it, they'll search for it just like everyone else, no skin off of google's back (though now I wonder what kind of ads adsense shows lawyers?)
However, you're supposed to attack the idea, not the man.
Care to point out where I insulted the man? All I did was torrent his newsletter, but every time I connect to the swarm, I never get any new data, I always get the same data again. This has been the way bittorrent worked since its inception (so I was off by 3 years). After all, if anything changes then the hashes in the.torrent file will tell the client it's corrupt and the client will try to change it back.
The use (or not) of the BitTorrent specification
If you "(or not)", then you're making it something other than what he's proposing.
Off to BT101 [wikipedia.org] with you
OK, I read it. I'm not seeing how DHT will solve the fact that the first time you commit a change to your code, the bittorrent client will detect it as corruption and replace the files with the original version from the swarm since the modified files won't match the hashes in the.torrent. Using a magnet link just hides the.torrent from you, the first commit will still need to somehow add new hashes (god forbid you do a rebase and change ALL the hashes).
The least invasive way I can think of to do this with some semblance of security would be some sort of public/private key arrangement that would identify the author of the.torrent file and allow that person to distribute replacement.torrent files through the swarm. When I commit a new version of foo.c, my signed update goes out and everyone updates their.torrent file with the new foo.c hash, and starts getting the new foo.c file. Anyone joining the swarm with an old.torrent gets notified about the updates and new hashes. Meanwhile, someone attempting to add evil.c to the torrent would not be able to get anyone else to recognize it as a valid block.
Intriguing idea, but I tried subscribing to your newsletter and I keep getting the Sept. 24, 1998 edition over and over. The problem with using bittorrent for this is distributing NEW data. If the protocol could cope with a seed appending data to the torrent without having to create a whole new.torrent file, then this could be awesome. As it is, you're just changing the problem from "how do I send out new versions of files when I commit something" to "how do I send out new versions of the.torrent files every time I commit something"
Have you actually ever bought a DVD in a "poorer market"? Not a pirated DVD, but one properly licensed and imported?
Have you ever bought an anime DVD in the US (one properly licensed)? Compare the price of getting an entire series in a box in the US to getting a single disc with two (if you're lucky!) episodes in Japan, and realize that your mistake is in thinking the US is on the high end of the region coding totem pole.
The entire point of swarm topology is to move data to a lot of places at the same time. If you just need to get data from A to B without sharing it with anyone else, rsync it.
Also based on the claims of that patent (the automatic packet fragmentation patent) it looks like now that ON THE INTERNET is a done thing, ON THE CELLULAR NETWORK is the new hotness for taking things everyone already does and patenting them all over again.
Problem: Medicare recipients vote Republican too (keep the government out of my Medicare!) Also, as soon as you suggest not covering some treatment, DEATH PANELSSzzz!1!!one.
Honestly, I don't know which scares Republicans more, old people deciding not to support big pharma by letting themselves die instead of being kept alive on drugs and tubes, or old people deciding to be kept alive on drugs and tubes on Medicare's dime.
-Legalizing obstruction of justice ( most prosecutors come from top notch schools, they should be able to win conviction irrespective of the quality of evidence)
Alternatively, force prosecutors to be sworn in at trial, and hold them and their star witnesses to the same perjury standards they hold the defense. Also, if it turns out they withheld exculpatory evidence and get an innocent person convicted, they should be charged with obstruction of justice and have jail time equal to the time the innocent person spent in jail and/or forfeit their wages for the same number of years.
the government requires that employers allow employees to vote with no financial penalty
The truth surprises even Americans: the federal government does not require that employers let you off work to vote. Neither do a lot of states. That's what early voting is for.
AFAICT, Google hasn't laid a single foot of fiber themselves
That's funny, half the rage over google fiber in Kansas was them getting permission to use power poles for stringing up fiber. Not sure what everyone was up in arms about if all that fiber was already there.
On top of that, I don't see any sign of "in-game" crest marketing in TFA:
There are five attractions: Giant Garden Gnome, Dolly the Dinosaur, Llarry the Llama, MaxisMan Statue and the World’s Largest Ball of Twine.... There is no in-game charge for the Attractions Set; however, you will need to purchase a specially marked Crest or Oral-B product in order to redeem the code."
Unless the Giant Garden Gnome has a shiny smile, it's not in-game advertising, it's just cross promotion.

Yeah, I remember discovering the wonders of net send * School will be closing early today
What box model would be best?
One that allows me to discover BOTH inside and the outside sizes so I can measure BOTH what will fit in my box, and what my box will fit in!
Thanks jquery!
Is it worth 12 billion dollars to keep AT&T and Verizon from controlling the airwaves?
As long as there's a postage stamp sized piece of land somewhere in the country where you can exercise your rights, they have not been infringed.

The explosion at the Texas plant was not from mixing Ammonium Nitrate with Diesel fuel
The real WTF is that it's explosive without mixing it with diesel. Why even mention mixing it with diesel?

How the hell would they know? The thing they paid for to tell them didn't work!

it's performing the same function as corrective lenses - forcing one eye to work harder than the other.
You aren't reading it correctly (maybe your eyesight is bad ;)
One eye sees the falling blocks while the other eye sees the blocks at the bottom, the goal is to force the eyes to work together.
I'd preserve social security but gut medicare.

Well, you know what they say: any sufficiently advanced securities are indistinguishable from magic!
