I have one account that I keep very private. well I am now getting spam in it. I figure that they got it from my web browser. I usually put in a bogus e-mail, or my alternate (spammed) account. I had changed once and forgot to change back until a week later. By that time it was too late.
My mom once sent for s cookbook(?) from Pillsberry. To date I have tried the 'remove' option for her 6 times. each time they say it will be removed. Then a bit later here it comes again. This e-mail has even followed her when the ISP went non-profit (change in domain names - NYX.NET. The e-mail account she has does have a limit. She has even wrote to the company directly and this has not stopped. I'm gonna set up procmail for her, but this is just the tip of the iceburg.
I, for one, tired of advertisers using my desktop as yet another billboard advertisement. An O.S. is not supposed to be a advertising vehicle. I get it everywhere (Mag, Book, TV, Movies, billboards, phone, mail, e-mail, etc.)
I would bet that sometime down the road they will have a 'AOL'centric active desktop feeding you ads at a phenominal pace. You might think web popups are annoying now. Could you imagine tring to get to Word and a popup comes up and says 'Would'nt you like a Coke(tm) with that?"
ARRGGHH, enough already! Lets tell all thes lusers where to get off.
Could be low end 'front' end for a server-client server architecture
Eg linux serving in background, w/ PS2 handling the 3D-X interface and mouse etc. Backend handling multi-game storage and net connections, stand-alone game servers, web, mp3, stack of game cd-'s(multibootable) etc. Then a LAN party would be 'Bring your PS/2, games,controller/interface/nic cards we got the server'
A NIC with bootp would be wicked thou. Would not need HD then. Kit could be cheaper.
5) That if you sue anyone over patents that you think may apply to the Software for a person's use of the Software, your license to the Software end automatically.
* Hmmm, this is different.
Sounds like they *KNOW* there are copyright violations. Then in court they could counter-sue any plaintiff (did you or did you not see the code?)
W3K supports something called a 'Dynamic disk' in short it bypasses the 'standard' way of disk partioning in favor of the MS way. Currently there is no support for it right now (link to articles)
My conpiracy theory: MS will keep changing this MS-Partioning every so often, thus forcing us (the linux community) to spend time/effort in black box re-engineering. At some point we will hit a DCMA wall with the 'encrypeted data' partiions/folders/files. I just took a class on W2K (not my choice) and this new MS-P has incentives to switch by making some new 'features' only valid with dynamic disks using NTFS (deliberatly disabled my MS?). AFAIK linux still only has read ability for NTFS. Other 'features' of MS-P are raid (0,1,5), plus spanning (take various chunks from same or different drive, and make a drive out of them) 'letterless (C:,D:)' partition mounting (like unix)
All of this added to the fact that you can encrypt and compress a individual drive/folder/file. The encryption would be a problem just for the fact that MS seems to be behind DCMA enforcement. The method involves public/private w/key retrival from 3rd party (aka back door) BTW: Anyone remember MS vs. Stacker?
BTW: partition type 42 was for linux swap/DR-DOS partitions (according to the link) coincidence huh? This smacks of WinBIOS type of attack
Saw this in the docs and mentioned it to a guy from my W2k class (Yeah I know!!!! - not my choice, I like to eat) Just loved that shocked look on his face. His comment was "What? is that a $100,000 machine?" To which I grinned evilly and said "No, multimilion dollar big Iron from IBM." BWwaaa, Ha Ha!!!! His reaction was priceless! Ain't I a stinker?
So now it's:
$0 - Slackware O/S
$5,000,000 for a machine to run it on (S/390)
Priceless - the reaction of all those ego-centric Windows people
I just checked pricewatch - actualy the 80GB drive vs 100GB drive are better for price/size ratio eg:
# * size = cost/mb
10 & 100 = $2710, 1000GB
14 & 80 = $2405, 1040GB (might need to add another controller)
NIC: $20 D-Link DFE-530TX+ (Linux works great)
$58 for 20GB Fujitsu HD
$210 for Yeong-Yang Cube server case
(as someone mentioned)
$105 for 3 * $35 for 512Mb ram
Worst part is this you NEED 2 - 3ware Excalade 8600 8 port contoller cards $345 each (8 drives per card) OUCH!!!!!
(I don't see why these boards are priced more than a GeForce 3 - $299)
The raid you are refering to only support mirroring, and only 4 drives per card.(4 on board- 4 card)
(Yeong-Yang cube case)
15bay-6bay(V)+2bay(V)+7bay(H)
- ATX cube server case w/300w ps
IMHO: I don't like the intel etherexpress - too many weird boards out there that don't work right (100b chipset)
Gee I've had several times where the 'other' programmers, and manager have complained my code is too complicated. Gee It worked didn't it? learn from it! I can tell you the most frustrating thing you can do to a prima donna is to replace their 'elegant' code with something mundane and boring.
Seriously thou... would you, as a manager, put your best violinist in a 4th string oboe position? IMHO the problem is not control but placement.
My first impression is that this ship design is a hot rod of the post-Khan era. IMHO it should have looked more like the rocket design of that last movie (eg a modified nuclear missle) but more 'Bulgy' and the front end (sphere/submarine like?)
As to weapons I would see them carrying atomic/hydrogen missles for sure for those 'corbimite manuevers' if needed. If I remember right they had just settled a shaky peace after the 3(4)th world war. Then get a HUGE surprise at how ineffective they were at times.
I never got Everquest for the reason of paying a monthly subscription. I figured will I actually get $30 bucks a month fun out of it? I can get Q3 UT, Unreal and UT free.
Consider instead a system like UT/Q3 that only supports the top level game connector. (eg master browser) then even sites like gamespy can host it for you as well. Then the 'servers' anyone can setup and then the computing power/performance would be distributed to closer sites as well (lag/ping times etc)
What I have not seen thou is a distributed 'master browser' system yet. Maybe IRc based?
I saw this explained somewhere. Dont have a link but here goes.
Roulette: 100 numbers 2 numbers house wins always. Laws of chos tells us that the house will win at least 52% of the time. (ave. 50% + 2% for the house always win) This is for long term runs
Apply the same priciple for 21. AFAIK the house always wins a 21/same count hand if you both get one. This is the percentage buster.
I would not be surprised that the games are looser for 'fun' vs. 'real' money games. (How would I know/prove?) and to make you think you might win.
This kind of sulution is nice. You could then fill/cover plate the rack. Put in a small refriderator air conditioner for just that room. It would be quieter than many noisy fans, and better off. All the computers could have the cases off. Then put in a simple air-filter (over the air conditioner) to help remove dust.

Great! Now I can show them my gaming experiance and get the $1mil scholarships. Then I can finally get the gaming system I really want!

That's how they do work. A 100Tflop grape6 machine would have 3072 individual units powering it.
That is six years we will hit that, and in 7 years beat that limit. Now to see who's right.
Maybe now we can compute the emotional state your girlfriends mind, and know when to just hit the doghouse before we hit the door.
Hm.. sounds like UT, Q3, and all those FPS games. I wonder why?

Been thinking about this myself! I could skip the plywood myself.
