I've not seen anyone bring this up yet.... The real promise of ADSB is to completely decentralize the ATC and open up the thousands of small airports to be used by VLJs in an entirely new kind of commercial air transport. No more hub and spoke.. any airport with a 5k' runway becomes a potential point of travel and with only a few people on board a plane.. there is no need for all the security theater. The existing ATC could never keep up with this much traffic.. but with ADSB it doesn't have to.
I annoy people by not playing the game, by turning off my cellphone, not running an IM client (unless I want to specifically talk to someone), only checking my email twice a day etc.
Oh I see... so it's ok for you to not be available but when you need to 'specifically talk to someone' you expect them to be online and ready to go. Double standard much? If you can't deal with people messaging you all the time why not tell them as much.. or would that be too confrontational for ya?
If this is really the way we want to go, then we should eliminate state government, replace it with regional governors to attend to regional issues, and stop pretending that states matter.
Hmm... now why does that sound so familiar....
The Congress will no longer be of any concern to us. I have just received word that the President has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away.
But that's impossible. How will the Emp^H^H^H President maintain control without the bureaucracy?
The regional governors now have direct control over their territories. Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of the secret police.
If you had a choice between two toilets, the Open GNUFeces gtkSepticPort, or a CrapThrasher 3000, is there any question which you would select?
Hmm.. yes I can see it now.. the CrapThrasher3k... three times the thrashing speed of the CrapThrasher1k. You know.. I find your ideas intriguing and wish to subscribe to your newsletter....
Hasn't the climate been drastically changing for millions of years... were we the cause of that too? Isn't it just possible the one ultimate source of all our energy (aka the Sun) is responsible for the warming trends just as it has been for all of measurable history? What wonderful arrogance that our blink of an eye existence could cause such global changes... Hate to break it to you.. but industrial emissions have only been around for a 100 years or so... which is not even a blip on the radar in the geologic time that such changes are measured.

What about the Gateway Connected DVD Player
I picked up the wireless version of this last week... works pretty well... I only hope they improve the software side to support more than just mpeg format.. it looks like it is planned though.. going by what options are greyed out on the setup menus. Anyone know who really makes these?
You know... I think that you've gotten the wrong impression about me. I think in all fairness, I should explain to you what it is that I do. For instance, tomorrow morning I'll get up nice and early, take a walk down over to the [studio office] and walk in and see you, and, uh... if you don't have my [mpeg] for me, I'll crack your fickin' head wide open in front of everybody in the the [studio]. And just about the time that I'm comin' out of jail, hopefully, you'll be comin' out of your coma. And guess what? I'll split your fickin' head open again. Because I'm fickin' stupid. I don't give a fick about jail. That's my business. That's what I do.
I was only countering your implication that we shouldn't be fighting terrorism at all.. I may disagree with the way the current administration is going about it... but there is no question to me that we need to be fighting it. Now.. if we were not spending so much on those social programs I brought up we could also defend our borders here at home. You have a problem with an 'open ended' war.. no clear enemy etc... I don't like it either.. but the reality is THAT is what we have to deal with.. we are not fighting a nation state.. we are fighting a small percentage of Islamic extremists. They won't stand together under a common flag or uniform... Given the existing makeup of our military... how would you propose to eliminate them? You do think they should be eliminated right? It is kill or be killed with these people.. there is no negotiating or reasoning.. Perhaps you should spend less time trying to put a jersey on me and focus on trying to understand the bigger picture.
> 1. We have started a "war on terrorism" that is open-ended and has no clearly-defined foes.
We would much prefer the foes to clearly define themselves... terrorists don't wear uniforms and march under a common flag you know.
> (thus impoverishing the government)
It wouldn't be impoverished if they stopped playing the role of a twisted robbin hood.. stealing from the middle and upper class and giving it away to anyone who asks... here or abroad.
Our BigGov needs to get back to basics.. actually doing what it is mandated to do by the constitution.. that alone would resolve many of these issues.
If you agree.. I'd encourage you to join up with the Free State Project and help set an example of how things CAN be done.
In this movie the ball enters into a scene where a deer and a hunter hidden in the forest. The hunter emerges from his hiding place in the ground to shoot the deer. You hear the gun shot which is followed by applause.

What about using usenet to publish changes to RBL lists? Each valid command would be signed with pgp to authenticate the source... then you just write up some scripts to retrieve messages from certain newsgroups.. validate the signature and modify a locally stored list.
Spam posting to those groups would become a problem.. but there are other ways of dealing with that. The point is.. if you can validate the source of the change commands it does not really matter how they are published.
It would only be 'near time' instead of real time... but isn't that good enough?
Here is the mix you want... though you didn't say how your user info is stored.. so I'll assume ldap.
- Postfix with ldap lookup tables for mail routing
- amavis-new with spamassin + sql (or ldap) for per user white/black lists and scoring
- cyrus imap taking delivery via lmtp from postfix and running saslauthd against whatever sort of backend you have to authenticate users (flat file,ldap,sql)
- Squirrelmail for webmail
- up-imapproxy to soften the blow caused by any webmail system
In my setup I have a pair of failover LVS load balancers out in front of a pool of postfix systems.. they handle antispam measures and mail routing and I can adujust the volume to each as I need to. Cyrus may not be the easiest thing to setup... but it's worth the effort. I'd suggest hiring someone who does this all the time to implement it and show you how to maintain it.. if you don't have the time and resources to learn on your own. I took the extra time to do a distributed network stress test on this setup before putting it in production and it's never had any serious issues.

How much will that noise start to degrade the network signal - especially when you start talking about gigabit Ethernet?
GigE can't use PoE... because GigE uses all 8 conductors to make the data connection... and so there are no idle wires left for the power.

But I believe that Americans, as individuals, had no interest in stealing Iraqi oil, even if the President did.
So where is all this cheap stolen oil I keep hearing so much about... prices at the pump have been rather high recently.
