Why does the cost rule it out again? Why doesn't he just download paltalk or something? Does he use windows? what's wrong with the standard video conference utilities? To be completely honest VNC uses more traffic than those types of utilites.
Find a new job, that is ludicrous. "flex time" my ass. You are getting raked buddy. If they require work outside normal hours, and that you "clock in" at a certain time, all they've done is renamed "mandatory overtime", and you don't get paid for it.
At my job, my boss tells people that "he's usually in between 8 an 8:30". I try to be in by 8, but my boss knows I'm scheduled to leave at 4:30, but it's more like 5:30 (or later, sometimes much much later) everyday. They are really leniant about that because "it all works out in the end" so he [my boss] likes to say. Of course he says that because I work more hours than I'm paid for, but that comes with the territory. I'm willing to trade that off to be treated like a proffessional, and not like I work at McDonalds.

That is truly childish. The real assholes at SCO are the suits and money-grubbing lawyers responsible for this charade. A code monkey in the trenches who needs a job to pay the bills isn't necessarily an enemy of open source.
They are enemies if what they bring could be lawsuits. If those coders put some code that was similar into one of their projects, SCO could sue for the rights to "own" that project. There's nothing childish about it. The Samba team won't allow developers that have experience writing Microsoft's networking code. So what's the big deal?
How about this, since they know the ISP's, and since they know the domain name (if blocking by IP blocks other sites then obviously they are using virtual hosting by domain name), why don't they

Nintendo has traditionally done some odd things, but I think this even beats out "The Glove" and "gyromite" as being the oddest. It is weird to see people playing that stupid dancing game using something similar to "The Mat" that nintendo had 15-something years ago.
"In fact, it's the companies with lots of resources who are falling behind in the race who typically come up with the biggest and riskiest innovations. Given Nintendo's ability to create good hardware and its strategic position in the handheld space, that could mean some VERY cool things in the future."
I don't see the gamecube as beeing all that behind. Sega maybe, but in the US Nintendo is #3 behind the PS2, and xbox, in Europe it in #2 behind playstation, and in Asia it has been #2 for awhile with a sudden jump last week into #1. That and they have $6 billion in cash. People think Nintendo is struggling just because they aren't doing as well as their management thought they would. I have played the gamecube at walmart a few times and I think it is a great system. It's the only one I've never seen "down for repairs" since they build the display.
The essence of the "voluntary" dissolution of Be means that this money will not go to a sudden resurrection of the BeOS, as some have thought (foolishly hoped, perhaps).
Those people obviously don't know about the deal Be made with Yellowtab right before they sold to Palm. YellowTab (yellowtab.com) got exclusive rights to the Beos source code, and is updating it and preparing it for a release.:-)
10.1.0.0 = IT at a different site 10.1.1.0 = dhcp range 2nd site
10.4.0.0 = test systems 10.5.0.0 = production nat
The ranges have been changed to protect the weak;-) But you get the idea. I have seen a/24 fill up which was a huge pain so I use a/16 for the dhcp range. I will never ever run out of IP's.
There's a couple of 192.168 network scattered about, but this makes things really easy.
I do use the 192.168.0.* range on my home LAN though.
I want it replaced with a system with no moving parts. As someone who likes to go 4x4'ing it's frustarting when there doesn't seem to be a good CD player appropriate for a jeep. Something that's no big deal if it gets stolen (when the doors and windows are off), yet doesn't skip when pounding the trail. I'm thinking some sort of huge flash media. Or an iPod type of thing that is really just the faceplate of the stereo, and the cradle is the actual stereo unit itself. That way just the faceplate could be taken into your house and sync'd.
2> They will say that since they are known for vaporware, that any derivitive "vapors" belong to them. Then they will start to sue drug dealers and junkies charging them a license fee to to continue smoking their crack.
" '..."They should stop, somebody stop them!" I hear all the time but... is this right?' "
Of course it's right. Just because the virus writers do play a role in the "ecosystem" of the Internet, doesn't mean that they shouldn't be prosecuted for it.
They knew in the middle ages that the black plague was being spread by the rats. Some towns cleaned up the sewers, and the water systems and killed off as many rats as they could find, those towns did relatively well during the plague. There were other towns that were convinced that the plague was sent by God (and maybe it was) and refused to clean or do anything about it, and those towns were wiped from the map.
The plague played an important part in our development as people. In fact bubonic plage is still being spread and caught by people. The results are very minor because most of us that have european ancenstry survived because our genes were stronger...but does that mean the water systems shouldn't have been cleaned by the few towns that did it? Absolutely not.

now we're going to see "Free Adrian" stickers on every phone booth in the universe.
I'd be surprised if every country didn't think this was illegal. Even Sealand has laws against this.

I tried posting ten puns to slashdot to try to get them modded up, but unfortunatelly no pun intendid
Wouldn't that be a gaipun? I wouldn't have though troll either but hey it's /. ;-)
There's been lot's of Gaimen over the last few years. It's the new fad didn't ya know? Lot's of gaiwomen also
That's exactly it.
;-) But you get the idea. I have seen a /24 fill up which was a huge pain so I use a /16 for the dhcp range. I will never ever run out of IP's.
Here at my company I use the 10/8 wherever I can.
Set it up something like this
10.0.0.0 = IT
10.0.1.0 = dhcp range
10.1.0.0 = IT at a different site
10.1.1.0 = dhcp range 2nd site

Actually, they did just that when they aquired DR-DOS from Novell a few years back.
see?
probably in one of 2 ways.
