By the Mexican Mafia.... which is powerfull enough to buy really tough lobby groups in the US senate (not that it takes anything else than money to do that, but it does take a lot of it).
The AG says (im a mexican duh!) this is for his own safety. He probably thought this up himself.
That said, i hate the fucker. Actually, those quotes about mexican officials divulgating US treasury information point directly to this guy, whose party, the same as that now in power at the federal government used this confidential info in a smear campain against the major of mexico city back in may.
Im all for the major of Mexico City.... if you ask me, the CIA (who is not in favor of the major of mexico city) put this info in the AG hands to give the nice Fox government a 'hand' in securing power for the conservatives.
Heh... i guess you have to be a mexican to care or understand it... but then, thats what a public forum is for!
since mexico isn't known for the incredible cell coverage
Well... actually it is known for that:
Damn, cant find a link.... Ok, we have 95% cellular coverage in the same GPS network (by telmex, the only large telecom in the world actually making money) and two other separate urban cell networks (a large GPS by telefonica de españa - owned by the third largest financial group in the world. And one by iusa, a smaller mexican owned, non GPS, network).
Try 60 hours in my laptop. Hey if i let it work at 100% that long, it will probably melt (tibook 400, 1gb). I turned it of at about the 40th hour... it was still compiling the second package in the batch: openoffice.org
Oh.... so thats why this MS product is so strong... who wouldve thought...:)

For all practicall purposes, XUL is an xml subset. Once implemented in the gecko, it is scriptable through the hooks gecko provides. This means javascript mostly.
Even so, all you need to learn is what you already know: w3c standards (XML+DOM+CSS). If you want a server side language, thats up to you. But if youre (l|cr)azy enough, you can ALSO use javascript.
So it doesnt take anything particularly complex or convoluted. In fact, the advantage of xaml, no matter how much is hyped by MS with respect to how 'innovative' it is (its not, xul is here NOW), is that xaml will be, like ie, integrated to the os and that hasnt proved very smart or helpful to users, although it has been pretty cool for skwashing the competition.
And then, it would be really really easy (in moz at least) to determine what layers should be on top of what (z-index).... So, even if this would be doable, it would be much more less of an annoyance (wouldnt be able to pop anything up from a frame to anotherone that is not under their control...and so on.
NASA makes the rules so that all technology developed cannot be protected from use by NASA or maybe even international, government supported space programs.
Phisics will be phisics, electronics will be electronics, i just hope NASA doesnt lock ITSELF out of space.
Im not shure if this is ironic/strange/dumb.... its what i blurbed out.
RBLs WORK. This is why spammers are forced to use worms to invade users' machines to create proxies. As soon as the authorities wake from their slumber and start prosecuting these scumbags who break into others' machines, the whole spam thing will essentially be over. But don't tell that to the little content-based-filtering-fools. They obviously have money to burn.
In case you havent heard, most of us with real jobs that require spam control cant wait for 'authorities to wake up' and cannot be expected to take advice from people that do, whatever the fuck it is your do, which is OBVIOUSLY not related at all with protecting people and/or resources from the abuse of spammers.
A cisco pix is an i486sx box with a disk on chip running Cisco IOS (a bsd derivative) with some firewall um... SOFTWARE on it.
If cisco happened to distribute cisco for instalation in any pc, it would make it a "software" firewall and it could run in a HECK of a better hardware than the shitty i486 it does (for 4000 bucks, no less).
So think about what you post once in a while. No such thing as a "hardware" ANYTHING. Hardware is iron, all intelligence is software.

You bunch of jerks!
If i download an rpm and click on it with konqueror or nautilus, BOTH WILL run the appropriate visual installer application (kpackage or synapys or whatever) in ALL of the most popular distros.
What the FUCK are you guys talking about not having an installation standard. Redhat CAN and DOES install deb packages in a single click, debian CAN and DOES install rpm with a couple of clicks.
Most countries have arrangements and treaties that specify that a patent declared in one of them is granted in all of them.
This applies to all of the American Continent, parts of Asia and Europe.
This is true, although if a patent granted in another country is inconstitutional in yours (software patents for example), then you can seek the shelter of the law in your country and so you cannot be prosecuted from infringement.
The problem is that Software patents are now allowed in europe, and most of latin america (shame on my country, which as usual took the money from microsoft and lobied, from the executive, to pass the consitutional reforms to allow this).
There are many reasons for having patents other then sueing someone, is your blind hatred for Microsoft so great that you have to see the worst possible reason for everything they do?
OSX's mail app is a TOY, just like safari is a TOY.
In my work, i depend on keeping about 20,000 emails in my inbox (yeah, all of those are mine). I work on web based apps and i also depend on a decent browser that can do tabbed browsing in a scalable manner (say, 8 windows, 20 tabs open each)...
All of that at the same time in a 400mhz tibook laptop with 384MB RAM
The only thing ive seen that can handle this is debianppc, self compiled optimized libc6, same for the kernel, some hdparm optimizations, and mozilla thunderbird+mozilla firebird ( cant have the gnome stuff cause epiphany does not have the niceties firefox has, and evo keeps crashing like a stupid bitch on ppc)
