And what about hosting companies who have customers accessing the database server from all over the internet to make changes and update the database? Not everyone who uses mysql is just some guy in the basement of his parent's house with too much free time on his hands to come up with the wonderful idea that no one else has thought of: restricting access to tcp port 3306 except from his web server and from his workstation.
Don't mean any offense to you personally since I have no idea who you are, just using the common stero type of open source junkies.
The majority of the programs in the base of openbsd are NOT from gnu. OpenBSD has made their opinion known to any who look for it: http://www.openbsd.org/policy.html (search for GPL)
or mentioned here by founder, Theo: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-mis c&m=104 614028313213&w=2
You can see the actual license listed here in one example "ls" http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/~check out~/s rc/bin/ls/ls.h?rev=1.7&content-type=text/plain
So GNU/BSD does not really apply. You wouldn't call your car Japanese/ just because there are a couple of parts under the hood made in Japan. To be honest, I am not truly sure which cars have what made from where, but you should be able to get the idea anyways.
I could not agree more that funding a space exploration program is ultimately critical to the lives of humans (and important for my own personal interests as well). I am greatful for the financial support from the current Bush administration to NASA regardless of the fact that I despise 95% or more of the things the Bush administration stand for and do.
However, I do not think NASA is the best answer necessarily. They have become bloated and filled with bureaucracies now. There are things that need to be done within NASA itself to really make the most of its money or else too much will go to waste. I think some new fresh blood needs to replace some of the veteran NASA decision makers to really get things going again.
First off, even if it is true, I am sure FireFox is not the only browser with a memory leak. Second, I use FireFox all the time and use tabs constantly. In any given day I might go thru 50-100 tabs, some days stretching into the the hundreds. Through out the course of the week i will hit a thousand tabs easily, no reboots or new browser windows opened mind you. All of this with no noticeable problems or slow downs. I do not have a stellar amount of RAM either. So if there this so called bug (I am not doubting there is) it does not affect me noticeably so I am fine with it, assuming it will get fixed eventually, thus it is not not ready for prime-time. With the boat load of bugs and terrible exploits in IE, I would rather think a memory leak is nothing in comparison.
Looking for some really high end remote control and remote management software? This software kicks serious ass. Dameware.
It is incredibly powerful and includes all of the fancy things like file transfers, remote install/upgrades, encryption, remote task and service manager, etc. Basically you can either control the desktop or access all the settings and services as if you were at the desktop thru a client program. Now bare in mind, this software is NOT cheap but it is seriously powerful.
Civil Rights: Why won't the candidates address the difference between civil marriage and religious marriage?
Kerry:
(deciphering this is left to the reader, 'cause I couldn't)
To me it seems Kerry is morally against same sex marriages, legally does not want to allow it but not neccessarilly crimilize it legally, just morally. He said he is FOR civil unions, which is ok but they are not federally recognized, only on the state level so if you move or travel, you are screwed. You would have to get a CU in every state, which I am sure would not be free or simple to accomplish.
Living in MN I had the pleasure of heardin Jesse "The Mind" Ventura as Governor. He often times answered the questions as they were asked. For example if someone asked "Are you against TOPIC_A?" and his response was "YES" or "NO" with no other crap affiliated with it.
All politicians spout the rhetoric that they are FOR the american people, they want to keep everyone SAFE. Well DUH, no one is going to say I am against safety or working for the American people! That is the double standard, say one thing do something else. I don't feel any safer than before 9-11, before the draconian laws that sprouted from 9-11, after the draconian laws came to be. I do however feel less safe knowing there are more ASSAULT WEAPONS available to people. Let's look at the definition of assault:
from dictionary.com
A violent physical or verbal attack.
An unlawful threat or attempt to do bodily injury to another.
The act or an instance of unlawfully threatening or attempting to injure another.
Until they change the server protocol and make the connector incompatible. Then they will patent the technology and make the connector illegal, like what they are trying to do with SMB and Samba.
But for now we can finally stop using Microsoft Lookout. Hooray.
Its easy. If you are at the office where you are not allowed your portables, you should have a computer that can produce a visible and an audible tone via some monitoring system like nagios, whatsup, etc.
If you are not at the office, the office policy doesn't apply and thus you can use your portable.
If your office doesn't have computers, well then I guess you'll just have to have your phone on vibrate and hide it in your crotch or something.
Yes, I concur. This movie looks like another hollywood circle jerk fest. I never saw bicentennial man for the same reason I will not watch this movie. If they made this movie more like the book to the tune that Peter Jackson has done with Lord of the Rings, I imagine it would get far more support, though probably not as much as LoTR.
This basically looks like a Terminator prequel but stupid. I,Willnot see this movie. Damn hollywood dogshit lovers; good thing Asmiov is dead otherwise he would surely croak when seeing this pathetic and tarnishing use of his good name.
Yep, thats what I did and I emailed NetSol and Verisign as to why I moved my domain away from them. Of couse the NetSol customer service guy was quick to point out that NetSol is not Verisign, but I reminded him they are a subsidiary of Verisign.
I blocked all traffic on my network to their address. I think I may do like one ISP did and redirect port 80 to a website that displays a message about the user error and about Verisign's crookedness.
Of course the Mule did not completely destroy Psychohistory, Gaia -> Galaxia did as chosen by Golan Trevize. Maybe the authors should look at this instead of a real life "Psychohistory" since it is obviously flawed and should be used only as a backup to Galaxia.
If old technology is good, especially after it is modernized, like giving its computer RAM measured in MB instead of B, what is the big deal? Its not like NASA doesnt spend a lot of money on R&D on products they use, why is it bad just because it is old, it's probably still a very good design.
Oh yeah, I forgot about all that. I guess I am just not cut out to be a spammer and now I am utterly distraught with grief. I guess it's time to jump off a bridge.
I just don't see too much spam anymore now that I use spambayes.
Yes, I am the financial administrator for sierra leone and am trying to export $40,000,000 US from the governemt before the rebels take over. My parents and wife have both been killed, my house is burned to the ground and I want to give you this money since I have no use for it anymore. Please send me your bank account information and $400 US for transaction fees and I will send it all to you.
Thank you have a have a nice time spending all that money.
No, your lego-up-your-ass in and of itself wouldn't satisfy the standard, it would have to be accepted by one of the slashdot editors who control the standard. Slashdot is not just technology based; I can name several slashdot topics that are not directly technology related: The United Stats, The Courts, The Media, Privacy, News, It's Funny. Laugh, Entertainment, Editorial, Censorship, Books.
You must be new to slashdot. In case you didnt notice there are many topics. One of which is "TOYS" that this one obviously falls under and there are all sorts of different game sub-topics. Perhaps you should relax and get used to how Slashdot operates or go elsewhere.

works great.
(cant remember exactly how many but it just increments like that)
Perhaps you have not heard the SnL Celebrity Jeopardy episode with Keanu Reeves?
This sounds a lot like OpenBSD's spamd program. Check out a possible use of it like spamhole.
for just the word linux came up with only 443 results. I am sure this is just a coincidence and has nothing to do with a bias or anything.
Yep, thats what I did and I emailed NetSol and Verisign as to why I moved my domain away from them. Of couse the NetSol customer service guy was quick to point out that NetSol is not Verisign, but I reminded him they are a subsidiary of Verisign.

And Markus, author of OpenSSH, just updated the OBSD source twice regarding this openssl issue as well.
