I plugged it into a hub, and I take like 3 IP addresses (Verizon has never said anything). Since I don't share things (printers, filesystems) between computers a hub works just fine).
IIRC, the connection between my DSL modem, and the CO is a analog connection. Therefore my DSL MODEM has to convert my digital signal to an analog (MODulate) signal, and convert Verizon's signal from a analog signal to a digital (DEModulate) signal. Hence in actuality it is a MODEM.!
Uhm, I think the only Ford (sold in the US) was the Aspire, and it was the biggest piece of shit, and was only on the market for 2 or 3 years. On the other hand Kia branded products are junk! I can't tell you how many times I have been driving down the interstate and saw a 97, 98 Kia blowing smoke out the back. Now I don't even see the 1st generation Sephias and Sportages, probably because they all are sitting in salvage yards. They are cheap poorly engineerd cars that are intended for the, "I want a new car, but can't afford a real new car" crowd.
I own a 2002 Honda Civic (sweet car), and a 1995 Chevrolet S10 (has 150,000 miles on it and still drives great "almost as good as when I bought it with 22 miles on it"). These vehicles are quality built vehicles built in the United States (Honda was engineered in Japan). Not to mention the fact that these vehicles will keep their resale value much better than any Kia.
Nuclear power subs, not nuclear weapons. There is quite a difference between a nuclear sub, and a nuclear device. The pride of their military (as another poster said) is some crude short range nuclear missles (only capable of reaching taiwan), and some Russian MiGs.
They spend most of their labor force on making toys for happy meals, computer cases, computer cases, etc. While we make the good stuff like microelectronics (mostly the design end), airplanes, space shuttles, software, etc.
Yeah nothing like the Chinese engineered micro-electronics in my Intel and AMD (Fabbed in Malasyia, but designed here) processors. Oh yeah, they weren't engineered in China, they were designed here, in the US. Sure we leave the easy stuff to eastern lands, but we make the good stuff here. How many Stealth Bombers, nuclear subs, and mars probes are made in China?
Since when is your quality of life dictated by your posessions, and retiring early. Everyone in this day in age is only worried about keeping up with Mr. Jones down the street. Can you imagine if we had a depression like the Great Depression where most people are starving to death, and on the brink of homelessness. Even the poor in our country have it much better then the middle class of some nations (try living in Afganistan, Iraq, or the former Soviet Union).
Well not really, when I used to race RC cars as a kid (High end ones). We had removable crystals in the back of the controller, our cars would operate at 27.XXXXMHz, if the XXXX (I don't remember if it was 3 or 4 X's) was different we wouldn't interfere with each other.
If you are talking about the motherboard, it runs on a widely available chipset. Support the chipset, support every board that implements it. I would rather wait on purchasing hardware until linux drivers are available (cheaper that way), than use Microsoft's mediocre products.
BTW I am not running a PII 400MHz, I am running an Athlon 2100 on a KT333 chipset, and a nVidia GForce4 Ti.
Background: I live in Florida, and I voted for Bush (~300 vote margin of victory)
If I voted for Brown, then we would have been that much closer to having tax and spend Gore in the White House. The pressure would be off Iraq, and Usama would be smoking Cubans with Saddam on TV.
I agree! I am not rich, I am a broke college student, making ends meet. You don't have to be rich to be a Republican, Democrat policies only make everything more expensive (cars, insurance (ambulance chasers for the most part are democrats), TAXES, etc.). I believe in free market, personal responsibility, and actually working for my money...... Therefore I am a Republican.
I'm pretty sure Linus, et. al. aren't going to implement DRM in Linux. Any DRM solution would require that it be software supported, otherwise how would a processor know the difference between ( MOV $data, %eax ) for my database app, and ( MOV $data, %eax ) for my mp3 system?
I don't know who tought you American Government/Civics, but doesn't congress do appropriation bills?
I believe the Dems held congress during the Regan, and Bush(41) administrations. It was probably like "Mr. President, we won't pass your defense appropriation if you don't pass our pork barrel highway through Boston".
That's right, it has to be a two way street. If they start h4x0ring our boxes, they can't go to the police if we start going after theirs. And, hopefully they use windoze....
I installed Lime Wire for Linux a couple of days ago. It is such a piece of shit, 1/15 of the downloads even start (and now I find out that the piece of shit is riddled wit spyware). Is there a descent GNUtella client for Linux that doesn't include any spyware.
I tried gtk-gnutella and it wouldn't connect, I liked bearshare when I was using windoze, and setup my firewall to prevent spyware traffic.

Yeah nothing like microsoft, who believes in open source, and fully supports WMP on linux.

It's NOT A MODEM DAMNIT!

Even better yet, I have DSL. It came as an self-install kit.
1) Plugged DSL modem into the telephone line
2) Plugged DSL modem into network hub
3) Connected filters to telephones
4) Threw install CD in the trash
I guess since the MPAA is in bed with Microsoft, us linux users are going to still have to rely on newsgroups, and P2P to download movies?
Yeah, I like the part about the 3.5 drive actually being able to read a 5.25 floppy.... :-)
Yeah, but pathfinder made it there, name another organization that has sucessfully landed a manmade object onto Mars?
I was thinking along the lines of Solaris, Oracle, VMS, .... Not Windoze, MS Office, SQL Server....

Kinda like at the end of meet the parents, where he gets into it with the stewardess... "You can't say bomb on an airplane"
Die temperature of 89C (from screenshot), those USIIe procs run hotter than my Athlon XP 2100+.

Yeah and a circle of radius=1 is called the "unit circle". Wow I miss freshman trig... :-)

make sure to tap the report out of the top, otherwise you might blow it to bits.... :-)

I run Linux, does it run well under Wine?
