The only place XM/Sirius is even remotely worthwhile is where I don't have some form of internet access, and with 3G getting more prevalant, that's going away. I just wish more portable players, like the sansa e280 (rockboxxed, baby!) had 802.11 capability, without restrictions on where you go to get your streams. That would be really nice at the gym. Yeah, phones can do it, but I really prefer having a cheap device that is really good at that one thing that I don't worry about breaking.
At home I use my roku soundbridge, which provides a great streaming interface. On the road, I use streamtuner to 'dial in' my internet radio stations from shoutcast. Audacious, I just discovered while trying ubuntu as a good xmms replacement.
My brother was hit (on purpose) by a car. The guy then took a crowbar to his head. That guy got 3 years and two counts of aggravated assault. That's it.
...it would be a good idea to have red lights, emergency vehicles, construction vehicles, whatever send radar signals that would be seen by radar detectors. Then as you are approaching something that requires your attention, you would be alerted. A good use for increasing safety by what officials consider an evil technology that is already ubiquitous.
You'd have to ask my greylist, mimedefang, and spamassassin filters, as most of it gets killed before even making it to the 3rd, which kills the rest. Stuff in that small threshold I allow, maybe 1-2 every couple of months gets through, and that's usually from a company I actually had done business with in the past.
Mimedefang rejections on dumb things at the helo/from stage, and greylisting kill most things without ever having to receive or process it.
I have a blackberry for personal use. For friends who also have them, I use PIN messaging instead of SMS. For more involved conversations, I point them to the blackberry messenger app that does IM type messaging (including audio notes, images, other attachments) rather than make them install something like jivetalk.
PINs are really nice for a few reasons: 1) direct berry to berry messaging 2) you know when the message has been delivered 3) they can have a separate alert from regular SMS messages 4) they don't eat up messages from the expensive monthly SMS bucket. Heck if everyone you need to SMS has a blackberry, you don't need to add sms to your plan at all. This assumes your data plan is unlimited and your SMS plan is ridiculously expensive.
Drawbacks: 1) must have a data capable cell signal, whereas SMS works anywhere a phonecall works. 2) for whatever reason, PINs don't automatically move your highlight to the latest in the BB messages list like SMS messages do. 3) the blackberry messenger alerts are wonky. There is no "first message" vs "everything else" option, so you either have an alert each time or never. Alerting when friends are on or not must be set after every conversation, vs. the 'buddy pounce' feature of jivetalk. Messenger would be a lot more useful if they'd fix those two things.
One thing I had a problem with in synergy is VNC sessions. My laptop is linux, but runs vmware for windows. When at home, I like to use synergy to go across both, but the vmware instance no workee.
Recently a co-worker did the oh shit thing. What is the normal unix flag for increasing verbosity of feedback from a command? Now go man pkill and use your imagination on what happened.:-)
DRM or not. Why would I want to do this? I'd be happy to pay for an.ISO, or.flac, but mp3? No thanks. If It's going to be encoded and tagged, I'll do the encoding, thanks.
But if you want to give me compressed files to see if they are worth purchasing the real thing? Sure, why not.
And it should be for services rendered. What service does the health insurance middleman provide, other than to inflate the cost and refuse treatment? Hrm?
Also, I understand your wish for a small government, but for example: a national healthcare plan is "big government" kind of talk
Not necessarily. The reason healthcare is so #!@$@! expensive is the for-profit middle man (health 'insurance' companies) we have today. Odd how the administrative staff at most doctors offices is 2-3x the staff that actually does the work! WTF???
Get rid of the middle man lining their pockets and making decisions about YOUR health (it's ridiculous, many health insurance companies now think that *they* should function as doctors with decision making!). Bring costs down, and use insurance for exactly that purpose. You don't use car insurance for oil changes...
Why isn't election day a national holiday? Seems like a really good reason to not work in this country would be to have the time to do more research and go to the polls.
the courts already accept what a hash is for forensic investigation. In fact, if you *don't* hash your original (actually, twice with different algorithms is standard practice) and your working copy, it's likely any evidence from the investigation will be thrown out.
The kiddie porn known hashes are a quick way to do the search. There is a list of known hashes, not only for CP, but all kinds of other nefarious stuff, or even for things specific to the investigation. Forensic tools allow you to use these lists of hashes to speed your investigation.
That said, while talking to some people in the industry, I was told that CP is the #1 thing that these investigations are for.

True. But where were her parents? Pretty sad the girl lived in a household where she couldn't talk to her folks about what was going on.

yet another thing I should patent....
Stop spending money on invading other countries and blowing up brown people.

surely you meant /.*//g /[.]// just removes the first period it sees.

Runs the current paragraph through the fmt command.
In windows, I believe %0|%0 will get you there. And on most modern linux boxen, your example will crap out in less than a minute.
oops. s/vnc/vmware/

I can never remember apropos, so just use 'man -k'
You can also wrap ppp in it for a poor-man's vpn. It works surprisingly well, and doesn't suffer from the NAT problems inherent in using IPSec.

If we are so much better now, why is the color of the man's skin of any importance at all?
That the administration that led us down this horrible path has finally been replaced?
I thought Jack Thompson was disbarred? Why are we still hearing about this crap?
And it should be for services rendered. What service does the health insurance middleman provide, other than to inflate the cost and refuse treatment? Hrm?
Yeah, but dogs and CURTAINS are!!!
each candidate should have a simple published resume. They are, after all, interviewing us all for a job. *shrug*.
