Not that this is by any means acceptible, but at least they are trying!
[quoting your link] To address this weakness, Microsoft modified the Telnet implementation that the company includes in Win2K. Win2K's Telnet server can handle not only clear-text authentication but also NT LAN Manager (NTLM) authentication. NTLM encrypts usernames and passwords as they cross the network so that they can't be discovered.
However, there's a catch. To use NTLM to authenticate to the Telnet server, you must have a Telnet client that supports NTLM. The only client that supports NTLM authentication is Microsoft's Telnet client. So, if you intend to telnet into your systems only from Win2K's Telnet client, you can secure your Telnet service by restricting it to support only NTLM authentication. If you plan to accept Telnet sessions from clients that don't support NTLM authentication, you'll need to step down your security
a coworker just got a treo and i played with it for a while, and can't say that i like it at all.
contrary to what i've read here many times, you can talk on the phone using and ear piece and go through your schedule at the same time, and yes that could be useful. but combining them takes away from both products and the only advantage is carrying around 1 less gadget.
all you end up with is a tiny PDA and a huge cell phone.
i remember seeing a tiny concept pda a while ago with flip out screens that merge to make 1 big screen... if they could do that and keep the size to a standard (small) cell phone, that might be useful, but until then, a visor prism + cell serves my need much better.
are you just the fix-it guy that has computer knowledge, or a private contractor?
if you are expected to stay in house and manage the thing once it is up, get ready for a lot of sleepless nights and angry users.
it is probably MUCH more cost effective for the complex to just pay for the DSL in all the buildings and keep them hooked up forever. ~$60 a month including a phone line and you have no hassles what-so-ever. then pass the cost onto the tennant
your month cost per tennant will probably be $20-30/month in hardware depreciation and bandwidth usage. plus you would have a HUGE (you didn't give building or unit numbers so i'll guess) setup fee of $10,000+ assuming you get a couple T1s and all the wireless hardware.
as a tenant i won't pay you more than $50 a month (standard DSL cost) so you have to figure out if you can provide all this service and not spend $20 a month per user of your time. i don't think you can.
metroid is the game where you have jump boots and can become a sticky ball. if you can't see what is behind you 2D style the gameplay and mindset will entirely change.
UHHH... you just hit alt-g (for google... hopefully you can remember that) and the cursor will go into the google toolbar... type in your search query and hit enter, and tab through the result links.
come on... mysql or postgresSQL are not alternatives to access. they are far superior databases, but access provides features that let users make tools to use the database.
and there is certainly many powerpoint clones, and like it or not, big wigs NEED to see powerpoint presentations. it is not a piece of crap.

they are still going to have naked chicks and a lot of independant films on the french rivera right?!?!
they did update it to allow recording... you just need the version of the jukebox with a record button.

if you only have a few (can count them on your fingers) ideas for games, don't even bother.
1 in 10 will actually get done, 1 in 100 of those will be enjoyable for more then 2 minutes, 1 in 100 of those a consumer will be willing to pay for.
just keep your job, life sucks.
no... to an audiophile this is like getting automatic transmission, 60mpg, dashboard computer, GPS, and a live band in your dash.
[Timeout expired]
uh... so it the odbc connection timed out, or the time it allows to timeout expired?
i think [ODBC fuckup] explains it much better.

oh filter, why must thee filter my comment
its actually very simple... you just say you are going to make it, then don't.
then enjoy all the publicity and sell more of your simple 8 bit processors.
Solaris is certainly a capable os, but sheeze that seems like an awful lot of money.
a 40% fee to make your $1M investment work like it is supposed to is not that big of deal.
even without it there's pi-ra-cy...
ahh... earth...
/.ers around the world can lie about having girlfriends. i highly doubt there is another planet like that!
where
and i'm sure demand has nothing to do with AOTC opening in 1000 fewer theatres than Spider-Man....
so when do i get to visit the holodeck?!
actually the forced programming get stored in reserve space and you still have your full 40 hours...
only 1 will show up in the list at a time, and your preferences override all the forced stuff... not harmful at all. just ignore it.

lets just say you've lost before your computer even boots up
yes, but then it isn't metroid...

this will just be another 3d FPS pile of crap.
funny, yes, but OH SO TRUE...
from the metroid article:
Traverse a crippled spaceship and explore the vast worlds of Tallon IV in an all-new first-person perspective!
how the FUCK are you going to play metroid in first-person?!
actually they already did just that in super smash bros.
basically every nintendo character ever made is in there.
metroid II for the GBC was one of my favorite portable games of all time.
now nearly every GBA game is awesome and worth countless hours under a well positioned lamp

my school district is still on apple ][ machines for word processing in the english department...
needless to say, apple has not tried any heavy handed licensing tactics with them... YET
just to bakck this guy up yes... the law says that in the US, if it is publically accessible for more than 12 months it is not patentable.
i make a bunch of closed source software for a company but because only the company uses it, i can file patents long after the 12 month period.
