They have some low quality downloads for free, otherwise you can get high quality ones for pretty cheap.
I got their dvd of audiobooks, what a deal 500 audio books for only $120. Thats $0.24 per audio book. I listen to them on my way to and back from work everyday. Great stuff!
How is it not violating copyrights? The united states respects the copyrights of many countries.
Have you never heard of the Berne Convention back in 1886? Now it is handled by the WTO.
When a anime gets licensed it means they are allowed to repoduce a copyrighted work with the permission of the original copyright holder. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to.
So fansubs are illegal. Unless you are part of a country who is not a part of the WTO.
I don't know if they really did look at porn or not. I remember back in my highschools days, a friend of mine and I were in a qbasic class, we went to the dos prompt and saw a novell network utility to echo to all the computers. My friend ran the utility saying something like "hello". Apprently they were very mad about that. He was accused of misusing the computers and looking at porn. We had no idea were they got the porn thing but they seemed to stick to their story.
It seems the more a administrator doesn't understand about something the bigger the punishment is. You can punch another student in the face and only be out of school for three days. Mess with a computer and you face a felony and expolsion.
A place that is meant for learning, when it comes to the computer the school doesn't want you to experiment(learn) anything. Only do what we tell you to and don't go trying to learn on your own. It is total BS and I hate to see it when things like this happen.
I've found there are many email servers, which detect this behaviour and see it as spam. If it sees too many individual messages from one place it will stop accepting. This may work for some places for the time being but I think spammers start and will continue to use this method to send spam.
Last time I looked Oracle was free to install for a development machine. So it would actually be cheaper for them to develop on Oracle since that is their production database.
Ever since they went to UPN, I've always had a hard time watching Star Trek. Where I live in Kansas I don't have a UPN channel, I think that is a problem with UPN (Remember CmdTaco saying he couldn't watch it when it first came on, and what, he lives in NY?). I couldn't watch voyager till it was syndicated and Enterprise is on at 1:30 am Saturday morning from a local TV station that wanted to be generous and switch from CBS to UPN for one hour.
DS9 is probably my favorite of the Treks, which wasn't on UPN. Bad deal going with UPN in my opinion.
I'ved use software raid 5 & 1 on over 6 servers with good success. I've ran several benchmarks on machines using software raid and hardware raid. They both offered compariable performance except in one area. If you constantly fsync such as unbuffered always sync syslog writes. Now this is slow no matter what but it was extremly slow in software raid.
This isn't really much of a problem as you don't really ever want to write to disk unbuffered always calling fsync.
I got me really bad when I turned up the logging in postgresql. While the performance degraded in both software and hardware raid. In the software raid it was really slow. However if you do buffered logging it is equaly fast on both hardware and software raid and almost no performance degradation.
So just remember don't do any unbuffered always fsync writes to disk in software raid. In most cases you'll never do this.
Right, I hear you. In the future, with a true world economy you should be able to move to another country and maintain the same standard of living. It's not like that right now, we have to go through things like this to get to that point.
I never said they were not offshorable. The idea is hopfully the United States is some type of place that can facilitate innovation. Eventually and hopfully the entire world will have strong economies and a innovative atmosphere and it will be a total world economy rather than country economy. You don't hear as much complaints about a company moving jobs to another state as much as you do to another country. Perhaps in the future moving jobs to another country wont be a big deal either.
Technology takes away jobs, offshoring takes away jobs, but that just lets people explore other areas where they wouldn't have before. The technology and other factors lower prices of products allowing more innovative opportunities that where not possible before.
How are you going to have a big boom of nano-tech or bio-tech if you keep your resources and people doing the same stuff and not offshore their jobs. If I lost my job I'd go look for something better but for now it does what I need. Same goes for lots of people. They lose their job, maybe I'll go to school for a bit and try something else like nano-tech.
Howabout using a traffic shaper I should do what you want.
Shaper is a traffic shaper and a packet filter for a server and for a gateway. With only limited configuration information, that are to be supplied, this script can control which and how information flow through the box.

Well how do you know it even will work. The sure way to know if a game I want to play before I buy is to pirate it. I didn't do this now I feel like a sucker. I would rather give it to the real wine project instead of this. Their list of working games doesn't tell everything. All of the games I really wanted to play I couldn't get to work, however they where listed as playable on their list. Maybe I'm just stupid but if I used a pirated version I would have known I was too stupid before buying it atleast.
> 4.) Episodes are a waste of time. Half the animes can be compressed into outstanding 2 hr movies, look at Battle Angel & Ninja Scroll.
Battle Angel and Ninja Scroll are not even close to the top of the best anime I've seen. 2 hr movies if it be anime or movies often do a poor job of character development. If you want a 2 hour thing just watch a American movie.
> 5.) Random peace signs MUST go. Anime characters absolutely abuse it.
I've made a 4" f/8 Dob. The mirrors and focuser where from Orion. The tub is a 5" PCB pipe, the base is made out of wood. Before I made this, I bought a 8" Dob from Orion(the XT8). It was fun making the 4" but it can't compare to the quality of the 8" I bought. The 4" is a WAAAY better than telescopes you'll find in department stores, however it was the little things that make it not as nice to use as the 8". I needed counter weights and I have a little problem with friction with my mount. I've had to make use of Teflon tape and alumminum to make it smoth out.

Struts was the worst thing I ever gotten into. I wrote a survey creation wizard with it. Instead of it taking a week it took me a month to make. The tags don't give you full control like code, so trying to fit it in using the tags made it more messy than code would ever be. Having error messages a properties file takes very little code if you do it right. I'll never touch struts again with a ten foot pull. It might be good for simple forms, but anything half way complex it isn't worth it, in fact it makes it worse. Maybe you can take some IDE that is integrated with struts to use over Macromedia's Coldfusion. Both Coldfusion and struts are bad with anything greater than small size.
Actually there is a lot more than 2.5 watching the skies. The Minor Planet Center takes data from amatuers as well as their own automated telescope. It is true that the MPC keeps and processes the data. Although ametuers are known from time to time to do their own orbital calculations.

I bought mine from the iRiver website, it came with a belt clip.

How does 50,000 hours come to 60 years of continous operation. I must be really missing something.
50,000/24/365.25 = 5.7 years

You can expand the folders to get it on one whole page if you want.
If you use a mozilla based browser you can add a link in your toolbar to add bookmarks to the manager.

Um... AFAIK, everything is in CVS apart from the copy protection code, which they have contracts not to release. What more can you ask for?
They don't even let any distros package the CVS version what do you mean what more could you ask for?
