I'm using radvd on my Linux router, and didn't have to change anything on my Leopard box connected to it.
I only have a/64 and I have to carve that into several/80 networks. Since autoconfig doesn't work on anything smaller than a/64, I've been just manually configuring each of the 5 hosts I'm using IPv6 on.
I leave my connection open to share it with friends and neighbors who need a quick connection. It's easy to watch the flashing lights on the box next to my desk and there's never been a real problem.
Same here. I take some precautions, such as the WLAN being segregated away from the wired LAN by the firewall:
I hear that 100% of computer users have used someone else's HTTP server without permission!
Nope. When you browse Slashdot, you have tacit permission to access the parts you're supposed to be able to access. This is true of all public websites. In the exact same way, when you connect to a neighbor's wide-open WAP, you have tacit permission to access it.
And my WAP is totally open to the public, so I'm not even on the "getting something for free" end of the argument.
I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard last week and love it, except that I can no longer use IPv6. I've triple-checked my router, address, and prefix length manual settings and they're all correct. I just can't get out of the machine at all:
$ ping6 www.kame.net ping6: nodename nor servname provided, or not known $ ping6 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085 ping6: UDP connect: No route to host $ ifconfig -a | grep inet6 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet6::1 prefixlen 128
Even though I have an address and router set up, it doesn't seem to be actually configuring any interfaces to use them. Another machine on the same network has no trouble:
$ ping6 www.kame.net 16 bytes from 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085, icmp_seq=0 hlim=55 time=207.462 ms 16 bytes from 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085, icmp_seq=1 hlim=55 time=206.939 ms 16 bytes from 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085, icmp_seq=2 hlim=54 time=339.163 ms
Even our old CRT iMac running Tiger works perfectly. Is anyone else successfully using IPv6 on Leopard? Is there some new gotcha that everyone but me knows about?
I've been running windows since Windows 3.1 and have never been infected by a virus, spyware or rootkit and nor has my installation ever been compromised. No matter what horror stories you have about Windows they are almost always the result of somebody's stupidity.
Well played, sir! But just between us: did you keep a straight face while writing that, or did it get the best of you?
No disrespect to Lajos, but have we really fallen so far in programming standards that it's considered "amazing" to disassemble a 1024 byte program?
I dunno. I'm certain I could look at any given one kilobyte program and tell you "that opcode is adding the results of those two", but it takes a certain kind of cleverness to figure out why it's using opcodes for constants and how they manage to pack a shift-right-branch-if-odd into two bytes plus an index register.
See also "The Story Of Mel". Now imagine being tasked with turning that into readable, understandable code. That's the real accomplishment.
The mere fact that you own a phone and have a number means that you expect people to call you.
No it doesn't. There are many legitimate reasons for having a phone without wanting to receive calls, such as emergency support for sick or old people, dialup data lines, or simply the fact that you have to have one to get DSL in some places. Maybe those aren't all that common, but it's not my responsibility to prove to them that I want to receive calls.
I know exactly what you mean! I am against abortion. Therefore I feel morally justified in shooting abortion doctors and the people who work at those clinics. Don't wanna be shot? Don't work there. It really is that simple!
Meanwhile, back in reality, we realize that people who think like this are sociopaths who need to be removed from society.
To answer the quote above: in C and C++ printf() [including fprintf() and sprintf()] returns an int, representing the number of characters formatted and written out - and not including any null byte appended as a string terminator.
So, it's an error when printf() doesn't output the expected number of bytes. Check.
Ummm, how do you determine exactly how many bytes it should have written so that you can compare the values? I can't really think of any way you could correctly do that in a locale-sensitive manner without re-implementing printf() in the first place, at which point the whole think is moot and you're fired for dicking around too much on the job.
I don't know about you, but when I say "listen on this interface only", and then check that it is, I'm pretty sure that it won't spontaneously start listening on other interface.
I'm never that sure. The name of an interface is nothing more than a string in a config file, and people are always forgetting to copy strings safely or forget to initialize them and so on. Maybe the version you have today works as documented. That doesn't mean that tomorrow's version is guaranteed do.
I'm sorry, but *no one* deserves to be raped, and the very idea of using such a thing as punishment is disgusting and abhorent.
Bullshit. Is it really your contention that raping someone is the worst possible thing a person can do? That there are no actions a person could take that could ever justify that as punishment? I hate to go Godwin, but I can think of at least one person in our parents' lifetimes that deserved to be raped, drawn, quartered, and otherwise damaged until dead. Put another way, there are some actions so heinous that pretty much any punishment is justifiable.
Rape is horrid and disgusting and despicable, but falls somewhat short of what Pol Pot, Stalin, Robert Mugabe, and He Who Is Not Allowed To Be Named managed to pull off.
now suddenly, a load of horseshit about 'business models' gets spouted off by dickheads on slashdot and digg in a pathetic attempt to justify getting music for free.
But here's the deal: everyone knows what an MP3 is and how to get them for free. It's ubiquitous. The cat's out of the bag. So the industry's real options are: 1) find a way to adapt to a new model, or 2) go bankrupt.
They're choosing 3) stomp their little feet and wish really hard that it'll all go away. It's simply not going to happen. For mathematical reasons, it provably can't happen.
To be human is to err, and every Application/OS I've seen is programmed by humans.
I tend to avoid VB.NET, too.

If you write off anything related to democracy or being involved in government as "hippie", and you write off anything "hippie" as unworthy or undesirable...I don't even know what you tell you, other than "you're missing out".
I love democracy, but the world itself is too often co-opted by such groups as "Democratic Republic of the Congo" or "Democratic People's Republic of Korea". Basically, "democratic" usually means "totalitarian". It's the worst kind of Newspeak.
I'll grant you that perhaps "hippie" wasn't the best word for my thinking.
For years, "democracy" has been a code-word for "we get to kill the middle east and spy on you". Maybe it's time we reclaimed its true meaning, instead of trying to disassociate ourselves with dissidents in the hope of being more acceptable.
It wasn't so much disassociation as the likelihood that I'd be put off by all of the pre-loaded channels, etc.
At any rate, I think that "Miro" is a much better name for a really excellent idea. I don't use Democracy Reader to view the email I get from many sources, or Democracy News to monitor RSS feeds.
I mean, OK, all of your points were well taken. But dude, do you really want to have a stroke over a freakin' GUI? Hie thee to the Apple Store. It might still piss you off, but at least it'll be pretty.
I remember running Windows 95 on a 100mhz system with 8mb of ram. The thing installed off 13 floppy disks, took up about 50mb of hd space, and considering the specs of the system, ran very well. If that's not a lean OS I don't know what is.
I bought an Amiga 2000HD in '92. It had 1MB of memory and I added another two by populating the sockets on the SCSI card. AmigaOS 2.04 came on six floppies, uncompressed, and required about 5MB of hard drive space. Once installed, it booted in about 10 seconds and left 2.75MB of RAM free for applications.
I don't think that Win95 had a single thing that AmigaOS didn't, except maybe solitaire. Windows has always been big for what it actually did, even in '95.

I had absolutely no idea what Miro was, other than something involving RSS and VLC. OK, that's nice. But I downloaded it anyway on a lark and was blown away. Maybe it still needs polishing (although I haven't had any problems whatsoever, knock on wood), but this is a prime example of the whole exceeding the sum of the parts. Congratulations on a truly slick application!
BTW, thanks for changing the name. "Democracy Player" just screamed "hippie". Yeah, I know that's a dumb reason not to try something, but image counts for a lot even if it shouldn't.
Voter verifies this on as many "neutral", 3rd party and/or official vote verification sites as possible, making the possibility of sabotage very slim since they can go to any one of these sites to see if any one of their vote counts are different.
What's your plan for making it impossible for interested parties to watch over your shoulder as you verify your vote back at the office or union hall?
why not just have everyone vote one a week from their PCs on the actual issues and skip the (politicians) middle man?
As your boss, I'd really, really appreciate it if you voted like I suggested. Here, let me show you how. I'll just watch to make sure you don't have an problems with it.
