Not exactly... the bounce message is generated by YOUR SMTP server, not Hotmail's. if you telnet to mx04.hotmail.com on port 25 and use SMTP commands to fake sending a message, all you get is:

I only have linux boxes, but I bet if you used an exchange SMTP server, you'd get a different bounce message back. Note who the bounce message was sent from... it was NOT from mailer-daemon@hotmail.com in my test - after using telnet I tested using pine;).
If a child is intentified to have a "weakness", how is this a potentially bad thing? you really want to bring your child into the world KNOWING that they're going to suffer debilitating mental illness halfway through his/her life? you are one sick person.
Wouldn't intentifying the weakness allow health professionals to make provisions for that child? see above. sure, we can make an alzeimers victim as comfortable as possible, but they will still get sick. and probably have to live their life KNOWING how it will end up. once again you are sick.
or religious, in which case you believe that this isn't cruel, everyone should have an opportunity to suffer and everyone, regardless of fitness is created equal.
I see NO short-term disadvantages to choosing an egg that doesn't have alzeimers. long term, there is a "disadvantage" since selection will cost money, and as a result, those who are presently rich would evolve "better" than the poor. we aren't at a level yet where characteristics like intelligence could be selected, but that day will most likely come.
Interestingly enough, at Best Buy they have a "magic" version of smart cards (or memory sticks, dont remember) that have DRM somehow. They cost $10 or $20 more for some reason. But it is happening.
you could bank it such thta you "feel" like you're skiing straight but are in fact turning.
Its missing a critical part of skiing.

When I go skiing fast, it is of course important to move quickly relative to the ground. This model works fine for that. However... an equally important aspect is the fast wind in your face. I would imagine skiing would be much less fun without the relative air movement.
if this is in fact the case, I musta gree with blizzard. Even though the DMCA has many bad uses, this would be a good use IMHO. Unfortunately, the RIAA could cite a good use like this as evidence of its "good"-ness
a bunch of my friends did this to a drive that had about 10% bad sectors on it and was well past warranty, except we left it open:-). unfortunately, after 3 or 4 boots, it stopped spinning up properly, and then someone punched through a platter. anyway, it was cool for the few minutes that the heads still seeked.
A comparison with C/C++ compiled by gcc. At least for the prime factorization, changing the code from java to C would have been trivial, and would also show any discrepancies between natively-compile java vs. compiled C.
I have been unable to get 2.5.2 to boot in VMware.... the buslogic scsi driver doesn't seem to load/initialize, regardless of whether it is compiled in or as a module. I've set it up almost identically to 2.4.17, which works fine. Any ideas?
I imagine that for a general-purpose CPU, there would be issues with more important sections having errors... but this is still awesome technology. I wonder how you benchmark/rate chips that are unique?;)

Well, according to the CIA, the highest point is 5 meters... they can't move up very much!
Don't most cards still work with VESA? I used some standard VESA modes in an assembly program I wrote, on my Geforce2... I'm not sure about VESA 2.0 though. (I don't know exactly what it is)
Your logic is slightly flawed. If you store all the "hard to compress" strings, and indexed them, you will have a lot of those strings - most likely, the size of the index will equal or exceed the size of the original string, which is why this won't work.
Say, for example, you have a 10-bit patterb stored, but you have 1025 of them stored. the index will require 11 bits. for that matter, if you have over 511 stored, you need 10 bits, and have gained nothing.
Somewhere on AMD's site was a fairly detailed explanation of how they came up with the numbers - it was actually a fairly comprehensive test (lots of software), and I think they did a good job. It seems they gave Intel the benefit of the doubt though, as in most of their tests, the Athlons performed slightly faster than the P4 whose clock speed they were rated to match.
True, but think about the cards that have grown and shrunk. Winmodems aren't especially much of an issue on a modern CPU. Any features for a sound card that may have at one point been hardware are also most likely simple.
However, the graphics card has drastically improved - from a mere framebuffer + ramdac to an actual processor, even a (somewhat) programmable one at that. The off-loading of graphics processing more than compensates for other cards moving to software.

that was supposed to be "an "
Does this mean you can't do an any more?

hmmm, of the 3 machines I tested, only using "localhost:1214" worked... you couldn't do it from a remote machine (":1214")
I agree. They say nearly nothing useful... and whats this about a "worm"? Its a bug/feature, not a worm.

Any reason you can't take the Xbox's DVD drive, drop it in a PC, and write ripping software?
I was replying to an offtopic post which got modded down to -1. The guy asked if anyone knew of recent cards that did VESA 2.0, and I was answering ;)

as can win98 and up - probably win95 too (start, run "winipcfg", release, renew, you now have a new IP)

I think you should see pics of the far side of the moon. it is MUCH more cratered than the near side, since the near side is protected by the earth.
I think you should change your sig to "have to look up but dont". Anyone who actually looks the stuff up most likely cares enough to moderate well.
How exactly do you talk to something when there is a big ball of rock between you and it?
