    So, you won't mind to give your domain/IP adresses to be submitted to rfc-ignorant ?

    Put a sipura 2000/3000 (see voxilla.org) at your main office and take a SIP Phone with you.

    For IP adresses, dyndns.org, zonedit.com and many other provide such services

    Hum, is it the same CIA that helped the funding the contras by using drug money in the '80 ?

    And for opensource users, you'll have to add the backcountry factor : they climb up by themselves before doing the only (or two) downhill of the day.

    yeah, hopefully, they also go to 2 letters standards, otherwise we wouldn't have got Gigabit ethernet over copper (aka 802.3ab)

  6. Re:arbitrary declarations on Gates: Open Source Kills Jobs · · Score: 1
    Prior of criticizing this junk in detail, you may try to read it in detail, or at least read every word in it

    Art. 17 (2) No one shall be arbitrarilydeprived of his property.

    And, to my knowledge, taxes are established by law which means that they are not arbitary.

    And, in the same manner, I can barely see how those rights are arbitrary, I don't see any individual convenience right like the one you put up as an example and hey were also agreed by founding members of the UN, including the US. That makes the difference between arbitrary and not.

  7. Re:Bill Gates obviously doesn't understand economi on Gates: Open Source Kills Jobs · · Score: 1
    "no-one has the right to be employed"

    Well, according to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, yes (see article 23).

    But apart from this slight detail, your counter-argument is valid.

    yep, me as well.

    They came in outlook 2003 (or was it XP), but after evolution featured them.

    I wonder what where this idea originated ...

    yeah, just like the most "popular" webserver is also the one with the worst security record.

  10. Re:What Microsoft gives on The Software Politics Of 2004's Presidential Race · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It's aslo an indication of the future winner, as, in presidential election years, MS always bet on the winner :

    1992 : Dem. 72%
    1996 : Dem. 54%
    2000 : Rep. 53%
    2004 : Dem. 58% - Rep. 42% ... let's see

  13. Re:They don't call it the 3rd world for nothing on Endangered Countries On The Internet · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Little correction : Macedonia was part of Yougoslavia, which founded the Non-Aligne Movement, and this puts them directly into the "3rd world" (cold-war meaning).

  15. Re:We have a free market of ideas in this country. on Fahrenheit 9/11 Discussion · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "For instance, Michael Moore has consistently insisted that at least a significant portion of his film is satire and not meant to be taken seriously, but he won't tell us which parts or what makes them untrue. "

    Which means that you have to think for yourself and search where is the truth in what you've been told ! What a disgussing concept !

    I still have some interrogations concerning the psychological effects ...

    I wonder if the data transmitted will feel more secure with a bad protection and will avoid being eavesdropped ;)

    not to contradict you, but making analogies isn't always a good idea ... information wants to be free but is brainless ...

    No, the numbers goes from 600.000 to 1 million dead people in the '94.

    Just because you didn't see it on TV doesn't mean it didn't happen that way.

    This has been one of the worst case of non-intervention, Belgium forces fled, US & France didn't came until tool late ...

    This is also one of the reasons why NATO has been so prompt to go into kosovo.

  25. Re:Suse: on Suse 9.1 Reviews? · · Score: 1

    The whole story that Suse 9.1 is realeased and available. Of course, you can only have it now if you're ready to pay for it.

    Otherwise, if you want it for free, you'll have to wait until it is available via FTP on the 14/06 (IIRC).

    If you want a totally free distribution, may I suggest you to use debian, gentoo or slackware ?

    For the security updates and bugfixes, suse linux products have a 2 life period, during which all updates are freely available through FTP, as soon as they are released.
