If you are connected to the net 24/7 at home set up Apache or similar and run your own web site. then you can store up the capacity of your home machine. In my case thats up to 500gb of storage.
Nothing to forget, nothing to carry, and always there (well as long as my ISp don't mess up)
I mean what is the challange in normal situations? Add Dragons, drive-bys, alien abductions, superheros, Villans, Elvis sightings, you know the things you see in National Enquirer
Everyone knows that without dark there is no light.
You have to make sure both parties start to read the random stream at the same start offset. Otherwise; the party that is supposed to see unencrypted data will not.
There was only one re-make of Leisure Suit Larry, and that was the first only. (Lnad of the Lounge Lizards.' Since then they have not done any thing regarding the old quest series. (Kings, Space or Police)
This is a Parody of the Kings quest series. I for one would like to see this genre come back. I had them all.
On three different occasions I've had 'Registerd/signature required mail fail.
One I was shipping a part to a company. They say they never got. I get back a return receipt with no signature. That was the United States Post Office.
One was a package sent to me Fed-ex. Was a pricy Optical drive. They left on my back door without any signature.
Just recently UPS did the same. Four new 120gb dirves left on backdoor steps. Even though it was clearly marked signature required.
Until there is a way to guarentee that the postal/package carriers do their part of the job nothing will change.
I was 'served' a subpoena just becase some idiot server figured my last name matched. I was not related by blood or relationship to the person in question. I even went to the court the next to have them correct this issue.
The result? I got lots of junk-mail(spam) from attourneys who thought I needed their help. They could not even read the full case jacket to see that yes indeed I was not the person in question.
I don't see how e-mailing is any help in gettting the process papers to the right person.
IMHO P2P (or something like it) will eventually be implemented on all the anonymouse ftp sites as well. Just need a open- ource standard version and away it would go.
Only thing it would need is a 'auto share partners' system to replace mirroring.
Why does anymbody forget backups? - I did not have my new LARGE tape drive yet. It failed one day before I got it shipped to me. I would never expect a drive to fail in one mere month. No scraping sounds were heard. Furthermore; the clicking was about the same voulume as the normal drive head movements on it. Since I had never bought a Quantum drive before, I figured this might be normal for this drive. Go figure.
I have had drives that failed more gracefully than that. At least with them you could do partial track and sector copies and re-build the data.I have never in 20 years had a drive fail with such a complete and utter failure before.
I had a Quantum drive fail by 'click death'. They told me the clicking sound was the heads hitting the stops. It started to become worse, and after a month it had died. The data was unrecoverable even by a data recovery company and their clean room.
I've had very good experince with them. I have a 800 MB drive that still runs well. I don't use it much any more becaues of the size. My drives are exclusivly Maxtor now. (no I do not represent Maxtor or any seller dealing with Maxtor)
I have had a Quantum Drive fail after 1 month so badly that even a data recovery company could not recover any data from it. It had anihilated the 'sync track' by scratching it to death.
I fear this. I will have to support it eventually. From personal experience they still have not figured out what a 'stable' fs is yet. Sql6.5 was an example about how it took them 5 OS patch levels and 5 Software patch levels just to become 95% stable. (I dare you to try and restore 10 DB and not have a problem with memory fragmentation)
BTW IBM have had this since the S/36. Its called a filessystem for the data and a database for the databse type needs.
A large portion of 'data' in the filesystem is wothless to search on. Take a image file for instance. The only 'real' database worthy information is about a image. So why not just have a DB with the info bits of relavant files included. Maybe text files should be put in the db verbatum, but raw data (images, video, audio,etc) just don't make sense to include in a all-for-one-and-one-for-all approach.
Pretty soon we will have google-type-bots on or pc's finding lost info for us. ala locate/updatedb.
take a few rubberbands and loop together (thcker ones work well) take 8 1/2" x 11" paper torn into 1 1/2" strips wide by 8 1/2" long. Fold paper untill its 1/4" wide & 1 1/2" long. Fold in half so it forms a V. use rubber band like a bowby putting V of paper over center of ubberband streched between two finders. pinch paper together over band. pull back. Aim. fire. This a lot faster to reload than just shooting rubberbands.

you never said where you access this data from .

I am totally sick and tired of all the advertizers trying to stick thier shit in my face.
Time to make a stand people.
why use just numbers? Besides you know they are gonna need counciling anyway after that
sex and gender are not verifyable.
I knew a person with DNA of XXY (that's right TWO X and ONE Y)
even had both types of parts

Any company who uses these the popup and popunder capability of our code shall pay royalties to us.
Any company trying to make a profit on what we put in, we shall take them out.
Any company tring to gyp us of our money shall be hurled into a small black hole (small because we intend much room for growth)

Now doing a rasberry would put this on your IRC ;P
Kinda takes all the fun out of yelling would'nt it?
After just d/l and installing 0.9.9 on a home & work pc's I have to do it again? *sigh*
Well at least I can use secure documents with my bank now, and don;t have to use Netscape.
BTW the tar for the binaries is large- 12mg or so. The source is even larger. If you want to compilehave at least 600mg on a drive somewher.

In other news little green men wre seen to be buying scuba gear. Local tabloids say its was a small invasion of martians and was dismissed.
Santa was quoted "Well I'm already wearing red so no problem"
Rudolf was caught buying a extra fur coat saying "Ya know, brass monkeys and all that."
Sleds with pontoon sales also rose.

Just entering his name into the Justice computer would have rendered a judgement of 'not guilty'
and gets rid of annoying door to door salesman, Then I'll buy one.

Software becomes dated and outlives its usefulness. This doesn't happen because the software degrades, but because hardware improves.
As an example: Would you use a 286 based compiler on a Athlon/Pentium machine now? Of course not.
Software may not rust, but it does fade away.

My advice - Beware!
