You have a contract, called a share. In this contract, you have certain agreements. One of the agreements is that you agree to not have any influence over the amount of shares (basically: you have little or no say in operational decisions). People with other shares decide that.
This is the company attitude you are dealing with. Talk to your boss about how people in a (small!!) company talk and work together. It should be a nice place where people respect each other. That is what I expect from a professional employee.
As someone who works at an email service provider: do both.
The spam-flag should trigger the ESP to contact its customer (the marketeer) why the #### they did not use an opt-in (as mandated by a proper ESP). Spam notifications hurt an ESP's deliverability (which is their core business).
The opt-out should technically take care that you do not receive further emails.
Marketers are lying scum. When push comes to shove they do whatever they think they can get away with. The only thing that stops them is the law.
I agree on that. A good marketeer should not, but a (too) large portion is not good. I work at an ESP (e-mail service provider) and we have to continuously correct customers who break our rules (== only explicit opt-in).
You use strong words to say that e-mail marketing is bad for legitimate businesses. I disagree though. Email is a quick and cheap way to seduce (potential) customers who already gave their consent to be 'in the loop'.
Remember: a good e-mail newsletter should provide something that is really interesting to its userbase. If not, people will opt-out really quick.
If, however, the company does not obide the opt-in rules: flag 'm as spam. They will have troubles with delivery.
This is a great problem if you cannot open the box (because of locks on the housing) but have access otherwise. Situations like you have in enterprises, government or banks.
Avoiding detection of such a crack is important. TFA is not explicit about the prerequisites of the attack though.
Re:Software RAID completely broken in Jaunty

Ubuntu 9.04 Released

I setup a raid0 machine with 8.10 today, with a default CD and this tutorial in 40 minutes (it tooks some more time because both computers were not on the same place).
I didn't know much of software raid (I read one tutorial) nor did I ever do it before. I know linux though, which is mandatory I guess.
Gparted is included on the live CD (but is not used in the installer). It can easily remove partitions.
I've looked and looked. Most OSS tools only provide 'tickets' and maybe 'inventory'. In my book a (ajax web-based) helpdesk application consists of a little more:
-user management, including imports -problem management -change management -configurable email responses (get mail when you report a ticket, when you get a ticket on your name,...) -good comprehensive overviews -reporting -searches -some sort of wiki which is integrated. -selfservicedesk where a user can review and update incidents
There were only two (below 10k$) commercial options I could find (and I used to work at the second shop): -ManageEngine -Topdesk Mind you, Topdesk has a codebase which is a mess which makes development a bitch. It is however very slick to use.
In general I find that in niche markets only commercial shops provide a comprehensive solution. Maybe there should be a place where software developers with an itch can see what features are wanted for an application of type X (here: helpdesk).
For example, what is advertising other than the manipulation of behavior (convincing you to do something you may not have done had you not seen the ad) brought about by "planting a message in everyone's head"?
Information? Granted, viewing only advertisements is not enough to get a proper view of 'the truth'. I have to say that this statement is so generic that it could apply to all communications between organisations and/or people. My 1 year-old communicates in a way that convinces me to do things I would not otherwise do. He does that by planting a message in my head: you will not sleep until I do.
There are two kinds of spam: spam by known entities and spam by anonymous entities. The first kind should always be targeted by sending a complaint to spamcop.net (because it will blacklist their mailservers which they should care about). 5 complaints and their server is blacklisted for a day and the servers get higher spamcredits.
You should never respond to the second kind and I think there is not much use in sending a complaint to spamcop (anybody knows differently?).
I do email-marketing (spam@request) for a living and we hate spamcop notifications.

Yes doubt. Doubt yourself.
US prison statistics show a systematic problem in the US. On average they have about 5x as much prisoners per capita than most other 'normal' places.
E.g. http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_pri_per_cap-crime-prisoners-per-capita (I didn't verify their source).
If your box is black-hacked for 8 years, and you don't know about it, you have other security problems.
100% unhackable systems don't exist. You have to keep checking for intrusions. There is an entire industry around that.
I have too many computers and virtual machines I have access to... That's why I like gmail.

Oh: don't say it can't be done.
when I, on linux, make a saas/web application. Customers log on with IE or Firefox and do their thing.
They are using linux?
My idea of the future is: no more applications at the desktop (except for word,excel,browsers,...).
The desktop is irrelevant, it's the net.

Is 9.04 so much different from 8.10?

One of my requirements is that all information can be entered randomly. I was surprised to see in the screenshots that this is not the case with sit.
It seems to lack change mgmt and SLA's but for the rest is looks like the most usable I've seen in OSS (last time I looked was a year ago).
Thanks for the tip. Funny that you are the first to mention it in this thread.

-good comprehensive overviews

Flame away for un-advising OSS ;-).
Would you not rather do it without one?

It would even be nicer if you could register this fact on another website. That way, their competitors can laugh too.
As long as there are cracked servers/clients, there will be illegal content available. U***** or not.
It's windows' fault (is there a Godwin alternative for saying this?).
there are other options, like downloading via newsgroups. See http://www.ftd.nu/ (warning: dutch) for example.
is that they are so g****** ugly to look at. Especially on a large sign.
At http://www.pal-v.com/ they have a gyrocopter version. I think it looks way cooler (no product photos yet though).
Disclaimer: I know an employee of this company.
Whatever you are, you are no socialist.
For me that would be an 'unknown' since a gmail user is not trackable.
