Cable television here is $45 a month. Just to watch TV. I noticed that I've had it for 2 months and yet have never even turned my TV on once.. but I'm still paying for it. All those commercials are going to waste on me, since I'm getting nothing out of it.
The simpsons was the only thing worth watching on TV... now that they suck (horribly I might add)... There is nothing to watch on TV at all. Needless to say I cancelled my cable subscription.
My recommendation to you to get commercial free entertainment... GO OUT AND DO SOMETHING. For the love of god there is an entire world out there full of live entertainment. Things you can do, things you can learn, things that are fun. Talk with a friend, listen to music. There is so much that you can do that involves your mind being active and your consciousness evolving. TV is like the anti-progression tool. Your brain effectively does nothing for however long you let that CRT think for you.
I just went skydiving for the first time yesterday.... albeit I only jumped from 10,000 feet... but the experience is undescribable. To all other slashdotters, I recommend that you give it a shot, even if you only jump from 2 miles, and not 20.
I've had a 1 meg 30 pin simm of my keychain for the last 3 years, one of the memory chips broke off a while back. The other two could be in good working order. Sold: AS IS
Thrown away? You've never worked fast food before. I'll just say don't be so trusting next time you bite into your 1/4 pounder w/cheese... you have no idea where it's been.
Lemme highlight the whole thing, so that you can read the whole thing:
Microsoft's XP license agreement says, "Except as otherwise permitted by the NetMeeting, Remote Assistance, and Remote Desktop features described below, you may not use the Product to permit any Device to use, access, display, or run other executable software residing on the Workstation Computer, nor may you permit any Device to use, access, display, or run the Product or Product's user interface, unless the Device has a separate license for the Product."
What microsoft wants here is everyone who uses XP to have a license for the device they are using XP on. So if your friend sets up a WinXP box with a VNC server, microsoft doesn't want you "enjoying the functionality and features of XP" from your win98 box, win2k box, linux box or your toaster. Microsoft feels that people may not upgrade from win98 to XP because they might use VNC to access a seperate, 3rd party XP machine. It's pretty gay, but unless you are running XP on all machines involved... you are breaking their license.
Don't buy XP, don't worry about.

We have something like that here in the states. It is two bars that you hold on to, and it vibrates on top of sending a current of electricity through your body. The current is low but enough to wear you feel it and would like to let go. The longer you hold on the more tickets you get to redeem for prizes.
any local hardware store sells the stuff for heavy duty duct work. Some stores will even cut it for you and give you the exact sizes you need. You'll have to do your own dremel work though.
I've noticed there's a lot of secrecy in this code. How do I, as an adminstrator who uses SNMP confirm any of this? All of these descriptions are about as vague as saying "We have a secret exploit that will kill any machine using the ICMP protocol, not exactly sure but it exists!". Does anyone have any more information as to what exactly this exploit does in order to crash. This is just not enough information:
Numerous vulnerabilities have been reported in multiple vendors' SNMP implementations. These vulnerabilities may allow unauthorized privileged access, denial-of-service attacks, or cause unstable behavior. If your site uses SNMP in any capacity, the CERT/CC encourages you to read this advisory and follow the advice provided in the Solution section below.

It's called a 486 in a mini tower with an install of slackware 4. You need one (1) modem and one (1) ethernet card... configure ppp-setup to always stay on. Run IP Masquerading and you are set. You'll be able to plug your linksys AP into the ethernet card and you have every box on the network through 802.11b
I know it's kinda chunky, but it kept all my boxes online for months until I got DSL and a cisco router.
Ahhh, I just tried this. You have a good point. I also just checked out streambox, where has it been all my life? Easy enough to find, google search for streambox showed this first:

He has a right to be a little paranoid. Real player is notorious for spyware & the like. he is just looking for just the simple player (read: no bloated spywa^H^H^H^H^Hfeatures).
It's a church site that lets you download real player to see one of their presentations. I guess they felt that it was sinful to let someone endure the pain of trying to navigate through www.real.com.
The links are really really small, I think it's done that way on purpose... here is where you can find what you're looking for:
Real Player 8 which is good. It's not the newest version so they don't give you the option to download JUST the player anymore, which is hard to find. Email me (address listed above) and I can send you the RP8 install (basic, non-network install).
RealOne Player which in my opinion sucks. This new piece of bloatware does everything the previous versions did but so much more (that you don't want it to do). I recommend against it.
Put a patent and a copyright on the strands that make up diseases like AIDS, Herpes, Malaria & the common cold. I'm tired of catching a cold, and I sure as hell don't want to get any terminal diseases in the near future. If you think about it, DNA is really a kind of software, it is intellectual property that's been unclaimed. Well dammit someone should claim that IP and protect it's right to not be copied unless specifically authorized by the rightful owner and in compliance with the DMCA!
You don't really have to crack it. I've noticed they technique they use to make it difficult to change around links. they open up a no permission browser window and then from there redirect to the link of the actual.rm or.ram file that you are streaming off of. If you have any sort of network monitor you'll be able to see the exact URL where you can download the file and save it to your hard disk.

No, the person or entity that allowed you to contract the disease (i.e. The person, elephant poop, tse tse fly...) would be held liable for violation of copyright and patent infringement.
