NEW YORK (Reuters) - Apple Computer Inc. has been in talks that could lead to a decision soon to use Intel Corp. chips in its Macintosh computer line, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.
If you have a look at the passport SDK, you'll see that the affiliated sites don't have direct access to any of the user's data.
That may be true for the moment, but I certainly don't trust
that to stay true once Microsoft gets enough users registered w/ passport.
They have proven again and again, that their ONLY
concern is making money. Would you trust in
microsoft enough to belive they won't start selling
that info?
As usual for NOVA, it was a great show.
My favorite was when one of the volunteers
attempted a method noone on the site had tried yet.
He filled a large box w/ sand and set the obelisk
in it. Then slowly removed the sand from holes
in the bottom of the box. It was a simple method, accurate, and used existing tools the Egyptians had in plenty.
Once you have seen spam from an ISP's angle you
realize how beligerant something like MAPS
must be in order to be at all effective.
Agreed.
Spam is horribly abused. Harsh methods are sometimes necessary.
If MAPS claims to contact providers before adding
them to the blacklist, that is wrong and can be abused as well. From my perspective, MAPS has done
more help than harm.
Using MAPS blocks email from that particular
domain. While it may block email from other domains
on the same box, if used properly, it doesn't
block viewing of the page. Which is what this
article seems to imply.

I've met the fella that heads up the
The Cross Creek Initiative. They are basically
a non-profit organization promoting alternative fuels. Hydrogen is what they believe in the most. I've read some of the company reports on hydrogen they have, along with many many letters of support from various universities and scientists world-wide.
Worth checking out if you're interested in options
to centralized power/alternative fuels. The fella I mentioned put it to me this way:
20 years ago when you went into a bank and asked to see a computer, they took you down to the basement and showed you the huge mainframe sitting there. At desks were dumb terminals connected to a centralized computer. Now when you go into a bank, you see 10's to 100's of seperate computers. Decentralized. Hydrogen can do the same with powering our houses, vehicles, etc....

Yes the site is new. Yes it is run by newbies. That is the point. The folks really care about learning linux, and helping others at the same time. Give it a try. Participate. You just may feel good about it. I do. =)

I'm getting really ticked about this spam crap. This is something that the ISPs need to handle, and handle fast.
You've obviously never worked for an ISP. It's not quite as cut and dry as your post makes it out to be.
FYI, system stats to date for just my personal server at home
Running a mailserver at home for a few email addresses isn't even close to a production mail system w/ thousands of users.
BWAhahahahahahahaha!!
Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Mwahahahahaha!!!

NOVA had a show on raising obelisks awhile back.

Yes they are that easily bought.
Sadly.
