One is looking for a hotel/isp. A hotel may not necessarily BE an ISP. He's looking for a combination package. Not necessarily a studio like you badly imply.
Wiring your house is a VERY different project. Discussion involved the type of wiring to buy, which is VERY different than finding an internet appt building. Your house doesn't necessarily mean you'll be an ISP.
Building a server room is a bit of a task. All the user was looking for is cheap rack equpitment.
If you can't deal with the ask slashdot's, how about turning them off, eh?
Maybe I'm just still waking up, but I've been looking for this feature for 30 minutes (after I've installed.9.7) and can't find it. Is it flaw that I can't find it under Prefs->Advanced? It does let me toggle JS all together but nothing else.
This isn't such a bad feature if you think about it. Well, if it did it like OSX did, I'd be happier, but I can't say that XP does. It should prompt and then dowdnload if affirmative.
But that's my humble opinion, which isn't as scary or so scary or whatever...
Think of it, if there was more competition, and the numbers were more even, say like Pepsi and Coke are (i think), imagine how many fewer people this would have affected. Just a thought..
I agree with you whole-heartedly. Just wish to further what you said.

But seriously, just so long as we can maintain regional advertising or local stations, I'll be happy. Last thing I want to hear is an MS Commercial or a McDonald's Commercial in NYC. If there's a special event in the area, I'd like to hear about it as well.
I'm not angry at MS in this case since I'm a Mac user. (OSX Rules! ph34r.)
From my witness of IE and Windows and what not, its free just like the veggies you ate as a kid was free for you. You were forced to take it though you hated it. Though, a lot of people using computers have figured out the IE alternatives.
Some kids learned how to feed the veggies to the dog or hide them or what have you. But those other kids who ate them, they were forced in the sense, you will eat your veggies and I won't prepare them in any other way. Parents weren't accountable for how things are made just so long as no one dies:). Microsoft has become the 'parent' company for the childen, the users who think they can't just run away from home or what have you.
The free you are refering to is the same free that has no primary cost. The secondary cost is that you could be hacked and have to pay for repairs or what have you when something REALLY goes wrong. If MS had more accountability.. if they were forced to atone as quickly as possible... if the user was seen more as a partner in the industry vs a simple target to sell something to, I'd believe the "free" part of IE.
As for the virus people, intrusion doesn't always fall under the form of a virus. What if I was manually, possible but highly improbably, hand crafting binary executables. Norton/McCaffee wouldn't be able to pre-predict what my application does in a grand sense: Word Processing, calculator, screensaver... That general behavior is hard to analyze, THOUGH, some sneaky behavior is always catchable.
Are you afraid of losing your whole system (perhaps due to lightning or theft)? If so, then your backup must be kept physically isolated from your system.
You answered your own question. That and if you wanna backup a 50 gig HD to 600 meg media such as CD-R's, you gotta be insane. You can't automate it or anything.
Also, I've seen powersupplies fry hardware. Recently had a powersupply kill a MB randomly. So doing something like tape is quite desireable.
My major gripe about the way linux distribs work is that they like to install stuff right into/usr/bin and/usr/lib.
I'd enjoy it if the base system stayed in/usr/bin,/usr/lib etc etc and whenver i wanted to, just rm -rf/usr/local (or/usr/X11R6 for X stuff) and be done with it. Plus removing the/var/db/pkg (or where-ever the package db files are stored)
That COULD be funny. "Gadget, we have a serious matter for you to take care of. But first, I must warn you, the porn you are looking at will self distruct in 5 seconds." *Boom*
If the last meteor shower was that visible, mind you, I saw only 1 meteor every 5 minutes, will this single meteor be just as bright? Being in NY and all, we have too much light, but in secluded areas, there is SOME visibility. Like in a baseball field when the lights are dead.
There's another big problem with Verizon not only as your DSL prover, but as your CO. If you want/need them as your CO, you must have a voice line. Yes.. more money going to them just to have the line open regardless of who is maintaining the line for you, MCI, Sprint.. whatever. Verizon STILL gets another cut just for you having a voice line.
Yes, this is technically fesable to have a DSL line without a voiceline. Verizon and its stupid policy. Meh.
With all these references to getting a tail, let me disspell the myth. No, you won't turn into a gigantic ape that's 10's more powerful JUST because you have a tail like Gokuu. Freaks.;)
Let me make an ammendment, a common IP, not necessarily the IP of origin. Someone could be behind NAT:) But then again, the software to figure out the common IP shouldn't be hard...
To a degree, this can work. If the signatue was of the text itself. If it was based on long sentences being present within a mail, plus the origin of the mail (based on the connecting IP), this might have a chance.
Think of it, spammers would have to start hitting multiple mail servers which creates a lot of over head and is just silly, to get around this. That and spammers would have to use very very generic text to get by it. Like "Act now. We sell. Porn!. Natalie Portman!" vs "Come see our barely of age teens do really bad stuff."
If the watermark was of a tree falling in a forest, and no one was around to hear that tree, would it make a sound? Could be a good watermarking scheme;)
Slashdot Mirror
meant to say appt/isp, not hotel/isp. guy replied to got that hotel crap in my head.
You DO realize, there's a difference in all 3.
One is looking for a hotel/isp. A hotel may not necessarily BE an ISP. He's looking for a combination package. Not necessarily a studio like you badly imply.

Alas, poor mini-me will have nothing to hump. (/austin powers 2 reference)
Odd..i checked there again and its not there. All I have is Cache, Proxies, Software Install and Mousewheel

Why are you bothering to back up your data?
...

You know... you are going to hell for that one.

For Mac OS X with IE, the first 3 worked. Didn't check the rest since I got scared off :)

This puts a new twist on the phrase, "You are what you eat."

would you like fries with that?

Does this mean they'll have red ibm logos or blue redhat logos' on them?
They are porting over key software for communicating with the iPod over to the windows. So stop comlaining.
