Hmm actually I have heard of them, think I even have a couple of their albums, on vinyl, I guess I should get a record deck sometime and listen to some of the ~500 albums I have.
They aren't out of print though, amazon has 4 or 5 of their albums. Probably politically correct music stores do as well:)
true:)
like I almost managed to say in my post, it isn't a good idea cos the general public will be far more censorious than pretty much any other option.
Your own anti-commercialism stance is probably a reflection of your own disgust while watching TV
or looking around online, whatever. Your stance was formed by exposure, not shelter.
Just to be contrary:)
For quite a large part of my childhood (possibly about 14 to 24 - with a couple of years out, college etc) I watched pretty much 0 TV, no reception, and for half+ the time no electricity either.
But anyway the culture shock when I first started watching again was incredible, half the time I was sitting there thinking 'how the fuck can people watch this crap...'
Like it was just impossible for me to conceive that people could ever be watch tv, or take in the ads without leaving.
Happily now 4 years later I can spend a whole day veggeing out in front to the box (even sky tv UK) without finding anything strange.
So he doesn't compromise, they get sued, out of business.
Next person trying, learns from their experience and installs [your favourite censorware].
What he is looking for is a mindful approach, everyone here can find lots of problems on any given subject, but how often do workable answers play a part on/. (except of course the non-front page topics, where a lot of useful info can be found).
Personally I'd be tempted arrange the screens so everyone else can see what others are doing, maybe not close enough to read the text, but enough to see nuddy pics, combine that with an internal messaging service so they can be grassed off.
Then make any offenders undergo questioning from your other clients as to their morality.
Who says we can't learn anything from the cultural revolution.
(one day I will manage to stop shooting my own arguments down, but not today)
Probably one of the best ideas would be to get in touch with other sysadmins from internet cafe's and similar, there are bound to be others who have had the same problems and are working on a solution.
e.g. UN Human Rights Charter thingy, IIRC (i.e. I'm probably just making it up) the US signed this, some judge found it unconstitutional, now it isn't recognised as law.
At a guess I'd say the important point is that you are tipping, not paying them, it is a personal gift from you to them. (can't get to the site right now for some strannnggg reason).
Kinda like if you met them in the street, "Hey! Wow! Cool! Wizard! [musician's name]!, I love your stuff, especially [album name]. Here's a tenner, and...spend it on food.... please?"
Only if you don't have a personal email account, fair enough if they want to read email to your business account, and knowing about that you can remember not to use it for anything you don't want them to read, e.g. job applications, messages to your doctor. The problem is that when goverment gets involved they have access to everything, the potential is that you have NO privacy whatsoever communicating via email, or even surfing the web, EVERYTHING you do can be watched and logged. There is a pretty big difference, and while it probably isn't very important at the moment if you are just a reasonably avarage citizen, well think of the worst government you can imagine (well ok it doesn't have to be _that_ bad [you are one sick puppy btw]), and what they could do with tools like this. You don't know who is going to be governing next decade, next century... but it will be way easier for them to prevent any dissent if they already have all the regulations, hardware, software, and historical logs/archives at their fingertips. Also the gradual erosion of privacy is quite likely to lead to that sort of government.
I think the landmine thing is mostly cos after the US left they left the landmines behind, and have made pretty much no effort to clear up the mess, meaning that in some places farming is like russian roulette.
Also IIRC they have refused to give information on how to safely defuse the landmines to these monsterous International Organisations who are actually doing something about them as it threatened US security.
So they just have to go out poking around with long sticks.
Interesting term 'Rogue nation', what is the definition?
192.168.0.0 -> 192.168.255.255 are addresses reserved for internal networks, they won't resolve on the internet.
It is possible that neotrace et al think that it is in the US because it thinks that it is part of NSI's network (they hold the record to reserve it).
These are most likely machines on the ISP's network, though really they shouldn't be doing that (if you used the same addresses on your office network it would probably bggr up quite nicely).
That said they might be using these machines to spy on you, can't get anywhere without going through the ISP.
If you aren't paying for call charges set up an email address and get it on as many spam lists as you can and then get your comp to download and delete them overnight, give them something fun to read).
UK Info Disk have a site up at www.192.com I can't see reverse phone number lookups there, but if you have someone's name and know roughly where they are you can probably find them
Not free though, although cheap.

Might not want to register if you are in the UK...
In fact when you come down to it Christianity was probably fairly irrelevant to the crimes commited in its name, if it wasn't Christianity it would have been some other religion or creed (i.e. anything that allows for an us and them situation). I seem to recall that Christianity even states fairly explicitely that you shouldn't go around knocking ppl off.
Wasn't it originally an ecstatic religion anyway? where did the church come from?...
Also of course porn is pretty seriously illegal in cn (and iran i'd imagine), getting away with sending secret messages isn't much good if you are in jail for having a hardrive full of nuddy pics.
You'd have to make absolutely sure they couldn't find out though, get your employees to sign a contract that they are to forgo all alcohol, recreational drugs etc while they are in your employ.
If I was renting a dedicated server and found that it was just a higher grade virtual one I would be pretty pissed off, even if I WAS getting the same performance/features as true dedicated. Also it probably wouldn't be legal...
The alternative would be to admit to it, but then I don't think you could charge so much.
Would be ok for an in-house system though if it saves enough costs compared to having seperate servers.
This is a conventional scam (that apparently someone managed to use here (UK) to defraud some serious dosh) ported to the net. The first one I got was from a lawyer representing the family of the ex president wanting to move their ill gotten gains out of the country. Quite worrying (given their history) at the time as all the facts seem to tie up (lawyers name/phone numbers etc), got 2 or 3 since then. Seems to be a purely Nigerian thing though. As for disclaimers at the bottom of email, they are just annoying, wish people would stop using them. I get a lot of 2 line emails followed by a 5+ line disclaimer and same again for the sig/address.
a better way of cos might be: pets.dogs.food.encore lazyyppl.food.encore or sport.football.corinthians sport.sailing.corinthians a dig down list. . . microsoft.software.fuckups is way easier that www.microsoft.com/office/update/security/
tpc.int is one I have been using for a long time, dunno how they got the domain though, apparently you have to to exchange your soul for unmarked US$ low denomination notes.

Um leaving the balance of power exactly the same you mean? :P
Poor people are less likely to vote, generally as far as they are concerned it doesn't make much difference who gets in.

What's with all these (recent) slashdot topics? is it small linux day and no one told me?
In fact if you read up on the cultural revolution in the PRC it doesn't take long to start seeing parallels.
The slight diffence is that now it's about money, not politics.
100 - 26 = 74, quite a bit more than half....
and The 7,0 offers again a true filling horn at new features has got me wanting to switch distro's immediately :)
Try an ISP in S. Ireland, I think they have legislation now making it illegal for the government to read your email.
Only if you don't have a personal email account, fair enough if they want to read email to your business account, and knowing about that you can remember not to use it for anything you don't want them to read, e.g. job applications, messages to your doctor.

Well if there was any doubt as to whether the law would go through it's gone now :)
Got to wonder about the Echelon angle though, maybe the UK & NZ are test cases...
But hey that's just a bit too paranoid, isn't it??
