You ignorant miserable no nothing fool. Only for American trucks, machine tools and rail cars. The Russians would have been defeated outright in 1943. FACT.
I've just had this strange usenet flashback to the 1991-93 timeframe where there was a very very vocal element on alt.binaries.* bitching something rotten about posters using JPEG instead of GIF.
Strange how spurious BS arguments get recycled again and again in defence of the status quo.
If I was bold enough to make a prediction, I would suggest that within 18-24 months, posters into alt.binaries.* using anything other than yEnc will be in a very tiny minority.
Like all great software that scratches an itch for just about everyone , a de facto standard some becomes a de jure one. The RFCs will be along later.
As a real life example. How many european govts were mandating OSI and X400 to the forcible exclusion of everything else back in the late 80s/early 90s ? How many are doing so now ?
Anyone want to take bets on how long it will take MS to give it the ultimate seal of approval by supporting it in OE ? I reckon its sooner rather than later.
Obviously a 13 year old who takes the BOFH columns seriously.
Problem being I know one or two tech support types who would make your life hell for however long you spent wasting that ISP's time. They hold the cards matey, you dont hold jack.
It doesnt NEED to. A proper L4 balanced proxy implementation will select the proxy member from hashing enabled based on source/dest port, source/dest IP Address AND on the URL. This will ensure that connections to www.foo.com from your source will always go the to the same server.
Carp is a waste of time in any large implementation.
Maybe its because you are on the waiting list for a CLUE transplant, you idiot. A shitty proxy implementation is not the general case, I can pretty much guarantee if I roll out a farm of L4 balanced NetCache appliances, any ISP will save bandwidth in spades. The average users browsing experience will be suitably improved also.
Listening to self righteous Vegans is nearly as bad as having to put up with the bollocks spouted by the wilder christian sects, endless moronic repetition that we are all destined for hellfire because we are catholic, protestant, gay, black, white, jewish, hindu, moslem, having sex before marriage, single mothers, shopping on Sundays/whatever.
You cannot rationally argue with these headcases, its a religion, an article of faith, they are fscked in the head every bit as bad as members of the LCC, CoS, Moonies or any other cult.
The nonsense that we cannot be meat eaters if the planets population reaches [INSERT LARGE FIGURE HERE] has been repeated by their ilk for well over 150 years now. I believe the figure originally started at a billion and has to be adjusted up each time the the past assertions have been exposed as utter bollocks.
Any person who would take the rantings of Peter Singer seriously should be made to pay dearly for advocating the fascism of the 'animal rights' movement.
No animal tested drugs, no medicines, no welfare benefits paid out of taxes raised by folks and their businesses you would destroy in the name of cute little animals, for you or any hellspawn you breed. You want to condemn the world back to a medieval hell where a simple infection ment death, its only fair that you should be hoisted on your own petard and try that road yourself first.
The cure for the comfortable urban middle classes who make up the vast majority of proselytizeing Veganism (Note I did not say vegetarian), is to be dumped say for 18 months onto an Ant/Artic island full of 'Ohhh So Cute' seals/penguins armed with nothing but a blunt hatchet.
Homo-Sapiens, like a lot of members of the ape family is an omnivore, live with it.
>Are you aware of the 500 plus mega ton nukes that we have
Someone shoot this fscking idiot. There are NO 500 megaton nukes, you have been watching to much Babylon 5.
The largest device ever tested was the Russion Tsar Bomba at 57 megatons in the Artic Circle back in the early 60s.
It took a Bear stripped back to the metal just to get the damn thing airborne at 30000+Kg in weight. Impressive, but useless as a deliverable weapon. Even at 30+tonnes the test device device generated a reduced yield, if it had been fitted with a fissile jacket of U238 as planned for production, estimated yields were in the 100-120 MT range. Problem being, the dropping aircraft would have had zero hope of escape after release. The test Tsar Bomba was the cleanest ever tested, with nearly all its yield coming from Fusion. A production device would have been seriously dirty from its U238 jacket.
500 MT in assorted handy size nukes are a lot more of a threat from both a tactical and strategic viewpoint.
The USA is responsible for nearly 25% of the worlds economy. Can you imagine a world where the US had a similar sized 'economy' to china ? You wouldnt be spouting bollocks on your cheap PC for a start. You'd be out shoveling shit and wondering how you are going to put food on the table this week.
Coal wildfires in China generate nearly as much CO2 as all the cars in the continental US combined. But that doesnt matter as coal miners are heros of socialist labour.
Same old anti progress hypocrisy from ultra left greenies.
I have implemented restricted internet access BY DEFAULT at any site I have connected to the net.
Ping : No Fscking Way Outside DNS : LMAO AIM/IRC/ICQ etc : You must be fscking joking. Direct HTTP Access : Go and boil your head
You get proxied and filtered HTTP access and thats it. Active content again is blocked. Trying to bypass it through SSL tunnels/whatever is a mandatory P45.
Fsck with my perimeter, the IDS spread randomly throughout will see what you are doing. Again you will be joining the ranks of the unemployed.
All inbound/outbound SMTP AV checked & filtered with active content blocked and held, through 2 tiers of mail servers running complimentary products.
Access to 'everyone' in the mail directory is restricted to supervisor use only.
Group security policy makes amateur gyneacology over HTTP a sacking offence.
Nothing new there. Wake up Yanks, the way we do things in Europe is a tad different from over there.
How fscking stupid can some people be? You dont get paid, you withdraw your labour and find someone who will renumerate you in a timely manner.
You are kidding yourself if you have under the illusion that you are indispensible, letting the side down/whatever. I've news for you, you are NOT. Taken a look at state of the IT market lately ?
The laws of economics dont change just because its linux you are working on.
Those 60+hour 7 day weeks you spent burning the candle at both ends and in the middle count for NOTHING if you are not being paid.
Once you are surplus to requirements or just unlucky enough to be there when a company implodes. The hard work you put in is MEANINGLESS in that case.
I remember, unexplained lockups, data losses on arrays, absolutely crap write performance.
These days I am reliably informed that the drives ship from the OEM directly with the vendor string changed and thats it. Seemingly it cost too much to maintain their own microcode for yet A.N Other drive.
Have to buy hard drives from CPQ my arse! Whats stopping you putting in a stock U160 controller and hanging drives off the back of that ? $3500 buys a LOT of Atlas 10K3s these days.
The CPQ drive rails mount standard SCSI drives and are freely available if you talk to your nearest CPQ reseller nicely. Compaq use stock quantum, fuji and seagate drives, they just change the vendor mode page entry to make it look like they are 'adding value' somehow.
Thats utter bollocks, Netscapes LDAP server was one of the shittiest bug ridden implementations of LDAP I ever had the misfortune to roll out and support.
If the little bastard had the ears boxed off him by his so called 'parents' at regular intervals growing up, there would have been no need for any medication.
Typical cop out. Feed the pathetic fsckers amphetamines & blame someone else. These days, little bastards are not being 'naughty' anymore, they have ADD, (as if that made being bold acceptable), yet another cop out.
If know of one case of alleged ADD, where the doting parents were ripped a new one by BOTH sets of grandparents, when they witnessed first hand the behaviour of the little miscreant.
Suprising how the need for Ritalin and the 'symptoms' of ADD rapidly disappeared when the little bollix had the hide tanned off him for every transgression.
