Check with your "friend" (this is you isn't it?) and see if he trademarked or copyrighted his company or domain name. Then merely have the ISP served with papers to transfer the name. To be honest though, your friend shouldn't have signed up unless his name was going on the ownership documents. I'm sure this could fall under some sort of class action. If it's a bigger host, then there would be a lot of people involved. This doesn't help in the interim though. He may be just stuck. If the ISP has decent legal, they may have just registered the domain for him and then "rented" it to your friend.

This just in, within minutes of this announcement AtLANtikCr4c|< 1.0 was released and allowed this to be played on PC's Macintosh, Linux, as well as able to copy in your own cheat codes in real time, as well as burn directly to cd-r.
Nah, the xbox will be around. Are you kidding? It's a microsoft product. They could give every single one of them away for the next 3 years and still have money to light their cigars with. What I do smell is more games for nintendo. The typical rule of thumb (according to what I've heard), is that you develop for the top 2 (or 3 if you have money). Nintendo, was kind of hit or miss on this. They were #3 in USA, #2 in europe. So some game manufacturers would opt for an xbox release hoping to get more sales out of the USA (unless of course in Europe).
Perhaps this mean s more games for Nintendo?
I know that since they dropped the price, I'm asking my wife for a gamecube for X-mas, and I wasn't planning on buying a game console at all.
for the record, use the ISC mirror. I got a sustained spike of over 1M/s I downloaded the entire thing in just about 7 minutes. I'm on a T-1 by the way, so your results may vary.
That's about how you feel sometimes looking for a job -hehe
I've gone through a total of about 3 different head hunting organizations, and have never EVER been placed or even gotten an interview with a place. One of them even posed like they were looking for posistions themselves and scheduled an interview with me. It wasn't until I was at the interview they told me that they were head hunters. I probably wouldn't have gotten all dressed up had I known that.
I've never ever ever gotten a job through Dice, Monster or any of those others. It's always been by driving around with a stack of resumes or the classifieds. Although I do know one person that got a job from Dice, but they had to move 200 miles to take it.
During the.com boom though I got called from headhunters about once a week. I don't even know how they got my cell number.
I used to work at zones several years ago, and the standard markup varied. They often sold their full computer systems at a loss, and so had to recoup the cost by marking things up _a lot_ . A $1.50 ethernet cable would balloon up to $30 or more sometimes. Of course you'd also buy the computer at $100 less than retail though. That's pretty standard practice. CompUSA does the same thing. Sony sells their playstations at a loss as well, then inflated the costs of accessories to stay in business. Your example is pretty freaking extreme though. I wonder if it was just a fluke. I saw things like that at zones all the time. All of a sudden a $1,299 computer would be $12.99.
'infringed IBM's copyrights by distributing IBM's contributions to Linux after SCO had violated its Linux license by claiming a copyright on parts of Linux.'
I read and re-read it and I can't make heads or tails out of what they are saying. Reminds me of this thread. Sure glad they aren't after me.
Well duh, they always have to play for the lowest common denominator[1]. So what they will do is make it so that you can't ride it after the batteries get too low.
I blocked the sitefinder with PF on my firewall. Not very elegant but it worked. Wildcard domains still resolve, but I don't get that stupid sitefinder thing anymore.
I will be doing the BIND patch later when I have more time.

Every time you want to login or log out, gotta wait for the java plugin to load
There's your problem. You still have the java applet. Call them up and tell them you want the HTML version. We have both installed. I approve my timecard perfectly fine from Galeon, none of that fussy Java stuff. I've even tested the HTML version from linx, it works, but it's a little odd to read.
oh yeah! I can still remember how excited I was when I beat the first dungeon, I about peed my pants with excitement. I felt like I was a part of the elite. That was no comparison for the first time I beat gannon though. Whenever I entered his dungeon I usually started shaking so bad with excitement that I'd have to pause and relax for a minute.
I played it so much that I even hear it complete with the sounds of what I would be doing during the game at that point in the song, complete with jumps, coins, and breaking bricks.:-)
We use kronos, and aside from it running on windows 2000 and XP (damn no unix), it runs really well. It's the swiss army chainsaw of punch cards. I'm salaried so I just approve my tiemcard once every 2 weeks, but the entire system is web-based, employees jsut log in from their own work stations, or one of the dedicated machines we have scattered occasionally about the building it also has wall-mounts for swiping magnetic strips, which are also tied into the megnetically locked doors through their gatekeeper system. It's really smooth.
Don't forget printers. At my work we had a network printer that stopped working. What was happening was that there was an attempted name resolution at the beginning of the print job, when that failed it went with the known IP address. Now that the name resolution always resolves, those print requests went out to the internet. Fixed with a simple block on the firewall.

Go ICANN? Wow, now I am really confused... who are the good guys again?
IBM, er wait, SUN? no dang, hold on it's coming...Apple? no wait...uhhhh i forget.
Everyone except SCO, Microsoft and Verisign.
Does anyone on slashdot still host their site with verisign? Last time I did, it was still called InterNic.
how many lawsuits is this now?
It's not my bag baby!

Slashdot needs to learn to treat SCO like a child. Just ignore their attention-grabbing techniques!
I disagree with you there. I think SCO needs more attention. Give them all the free PLUG's they want!

But, will your ethernet stop working if you use it?
No.

I can only remember the sound the whistle (or was it a flute?) made in the first Zelda.
Thetheme song for the orignal super mario brothers.

I blocked it too, but it still breaks the DNS system. You shouldn't be blocking requests from the owners of the root servers.
