Well, as far as I've gotten, I had to use Firefox for the signup, and then MSIE to get the page to render properly so I could see the "See Results" button. Then it gets stuck, so it doesn't matter very much either way. I've had something to see for 10 days, and no way to see it.
That sounds familiar.. I've said the same thing here and elsewhere. But it's not like my analysis is unique. There are lots of people who have done large implementations in the past. This one turned out with the expected results. They'll get it working right in a few months.
Look down at the bottom of the textarea. If you select 'code', it puts everything into monospace, and (should) escape html entities. Alternatively, you can use the tags in the below list, from which ecode sets a block to be monospace with escaped html entities.
<b> b = bold </b> <i> i italics </i> <p> p = new paragraph <br> br = line break <A HREF='/'>a = link</A> <ol> <li>ol ordered list <li>li line item </ol> <ul>ul unordered list <li> li line item </ul> <dl> dl descriptive list <dt> dt descriptive term </dt> <dd> descriptive description </dl> </dl> <em> em emphasis </em> <strong> strong </strong><tt> tt teletype text</tt> <blockquote> blockquote: this is a block of quoted text.

Don't read past here.:) unfortunately, making so many short lines made the lameness filter throw the message "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 27.4). ", so I'm padding the message with real words, so I won't see "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 27.4). " again, and hopefully it will think that this is an informative message like it is, rather than saying "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 27.4). " Whew.
But no, that didn't work. Now I'm at "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 32.0). ", which means I have "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 32.0). ", and I really should have more characters per line, but if I just put one character repeated, it will complain about that too, so lets see where we are now instead of "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 32.0). "
This is apparently harder than it seems, as it now says "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 36.1). ", which means trying to explain how Slashdot works in a Slashdot post is going to make me type a lot of new junk so I won't see "Your comment has too few characters per line (currently 36.1). ", but I'll probably be caught by another lameness filter. Like, it may realize I keep using the same words over and over, even though I'm typing a lot in between messages li
I'm surprised you haven't been slammed with the "Mitnik wasn't a hacker!" posts. For the most part, he manipulated people, or as you said "Social Engineering skills".
If someone used those same skills to relieve an old lady out of a large sum of money without any technology needing to be involved, he'd just be called a con artist. Same deal, but sometimes a different goal.
I grew up on a farm, and we had plenty of cats and squirrels around.
Squirrels never cried when they were stuck in a tree, because they never were.
Cats would occasionally cry, but would eventually climb down. Even at 15' to 20' above the ground, they were fine. Their instincts and learned abilities work fine. They can't grip very well going head first down a tree. It's more like a clawed running fall, only slowing themselves a little.:) If they're too high, they can climb down backwards, stopping to rest or look around as they please. It's not terribly graceful, but they did fine. The important part to remember is, they got themselves there in the first place, so they have a path to get back down.
If they don't survive, you've just witnessed evolution at work.
I'm amazed this flaw still exists. It reminds me of back in the day, when NSI only accepted registrations via email. Changes could be forced by sending a sufficient number of change requests. We'd do it just to make sure the changes were accepted, since most of the time they'd screw it up. We'd send something like 20 requests. A few would be approved.
You could move just about any domain to anywhere else, as long as you could forge the email header to be a legitimate contact.
I never considered it a "hack". It was just a kludge to make a flawed system work properly. Well, too properly if I, for example, accidentally moved a domain that wasn't mine.
So now you have to forge a fax? Oohh, that sounds rough.
It's good that you've followed the conversation, where it was made abundantly clear, where we discussed the fact that it *does* depend on the jurisdiction. So many people just find one like to argue with, and troll away.
With a userid lower than mine, you've been here for a long time. I'd think you'd know enough to actually (oh my gosh) read before trolling. I went back through some of your other comments, and it does seem you prefer to troll along...
I cited the address change description as provided by the state.
I also see in this post you stated "Funny how where I am at in Florida..."
I'm sure you're familiar with FS 322.19(1). Fine, so you have a PO box. Most people don't move with the focus of remaining close enough to their PO box to check the mail regularly. So if you moved and got a new PO box, but you failed to update the DMV with the new address within 10 days, you're still in violation. Recite the wrong address, and you've confessed to a non-moving violation.
I skimmed around a little looking for the cost of that violation. In Seminole County, it's $113. I wouldn't expect it be much less in other jurisdictions. Like I said before, it all varies by jurisdiction. The fine may be $120 where you are, and $114 where I am. I don't have a problem with it, since my address is always right, despite needing to change it a dozen or so times since I got my license.
Well, according to the report, he did mess up the prop on the runway. His estate could (in theory) sue him for damages to the plane. I doubt they would though. He brought the deceased back in one piece, rather than needing to collect parts spread across the countryside.
And then they could simply write "the family had no comment." That's the friendly translation of cursing phone calls, hangups, doors slammed in the reporters face, and even threats of violence if the reporter doesn't leave.
You've done a lot of reporting, haven't you? You should talk to your editor, it seems that you have a lot to learn.
Well, if I read the story right, it was a friend up with him, and the family was notified. It would simply be up to the reporter to ask a few questions, like reporters are suppose to. Hell, they got the play by play of how he got the plane on the ground.
Privacy and avoiding speculation isn't an excuse for piss-poor reporting.
Ya, it's nice that most of the stories don't say a word about the dead guy. He didn't actually die until after the landing, but he was unresponsive before landing.
The pilot, who has not been named on request of his family, later died. A spokesman for Humberside Police said: "A post mortem is to be undertaken following the sad death of the pilot of a light aircraft which landed safely at Humberside Airport yesterday evening.
In Florida, by law you must notify the Driver License Division of a change of address within 10 days of moving.
If you have a driver license issued before July 1, 1997, you will receive a change of address sticker to place on the back of your license. If you have a digitized license (issued after July 1, 1997), you will receive a new license instead of a sticker.
Florida law requires that you destroy your old license as soon as you receive a new one.
Florida drivers have 20 days to notify their local tax collector's office about a change of address for tag renewal notices. You'll be required to provide the license plate number of the registered vehicle, as well as updated address information.
I provided... birth certificate, social security card, car insurance with my new address, and copy of my bank statement for the new address. You need 4 pieces of identification now, if you're a naturally born citizen. More is required if you're an immigrant.
I was technically in violation for about a week, while I waited for stuff to come in the mail. The bank hadn't sent me a new statement yet. When I went back, there were plenty of people being turned away because they didn't have "enough" proof.
f you have a New York State driver license, learner permit or non-driver ID card, or a registration for a vehicle, boat or snowmobile, you are required by law to notify DMV within 10 days of any PERMANENT address change.
Write your new address on your current state or enhanced license, permit, or non-driver ID card and/or registration document.
Motor Vehicles does not require you to get a new license, permit, non-driver ID card or registration document, but many people prefer to do so. To purchase a replacement document(s) complete Parts 1 and 2 on Page 2.
You must report your new address to us within 10 days after moving. If you already have a Washington State driver license or ID card, you may change your address:
Online:
The address on your driving record will be updated at no charge.
If you want a new license or ID card with your updated address, you can order one for an additional fee and pay with a Visa, MasterCard, or American Express debit or credit card.
There are good cops out there, that do know people make mistakes. I really appreciate them.
It's been said, if a cop follows you long enough, they'll find *something* to cite you for. It's a nice thick book of laws that you can violate. Even if they can't find anything else, they can cite you with "careless driving", which is, in their opinion, you weren't driving perfectly.
I had to go to court to beat one of those. I was cited because it was early morning, and he couldn't find any other reason to cite me for. The cops were awful in that town. I avoid it at all costs now. I was stopped at least twice a week, and most of the time they couldn't even cite me for careless driving. My real crime was, I was a teenager.
57mph was a question, not a statement. To me, to the best of my knowledge, I was doing 55.
Did his radar gun show 57? Did he even have a radar gun? Did he just assume I was going faster than 55, because I was going faster than the other cars?
The honest truth was, I was going no faster or slower than the cars around me. When he did stop me, I was doing 45mph. I am confident in that, because when I saw his lights I glanced down at the speedometer to make sure I knew how fast I was moving at that moment. Traffic had slowed slightly between the time he observed me and when he stopped me. Traffic had slowed, because they were intentionally stopping cars to increase county revenue. Any spontaneous confession is fair game.
When I went through law enforcement school, it was drilled into us about Miranda and spontaneous confessions.
If you walk into a police station and tell the first cop you see "I just killed someone!" That's a spontaneous confession, and they can arrest you on the spot.
"Do you know why I stopped you" is considered conversation, not questioning. Saying "I was speeding" or "because I have drugs in the trunk" are fair game. Keep your spontaneous confessioning mouth shut. That's what Professor Duane's video is trying to explain. STFU, and if you aren't free to go, have an attorney at your side to tell you what you can or can't answer.
I drive a lot, and I don't drive like an asshole. Street cops have moved from being enforcement and protection, to being revenue generators. If they can stop you and find something to cite you for, the city/county/state makes money from it. If they're real lucky, they'll find money and drugs.
In this state, illegal drugs in the vehicle, regardless of the quantity of drugs, is enough to forfeit the car and everything contained within it. It will all be sold at auction. If they're really lucky, they can tie it back to your house, and that would be forfeit too. The burden of proving that what they found isn't drugs is up to you. I've read reports where a piece of gravel on the floorboard was labeled "crack cocaine", and the accused had to prove that it was just gravel.
It doesn't even need to be drugs. Having "too much" cash can be considered intent to purchase drugs. "too much" is at the discretion of the officer and state's attorney. That can be $100 or thousands. It's an easy one too, as most people keep money in their wallet, so if they see some green when you pull it out to show your license, they now have probable cause.
15 days in this state. But even if you moved yesterday, you can still be cited. It will be up to you to prove that you did comply within the 15 days. Failure to show the proof within that period is a violation. Even if you did file the change yesterday, but you haven't received your new license, you'll be cited. You can submit the change online, and they mail your license to your house.
So if you moved on day 1, and cited on day 2. If you forget to go show proof by day 15, you're in violation. If you misplace the citation while unpacking the stuff in your house, or you simply can't get the time off of work to go prove it (since you just took a few days off to move and all), you're still screwed.
The window of 30 days doesn't matter, the above still applies.
The same applies for failing to have proof of insurance, or your registration in the car. When I was in an accident in January, I found that they don't need either. I was busy being tied down to a backboard. The officer ran my plate, got my registration info, insurance info and my license image. He just compared my license photo to me, and yup, it was still me.
He came down to the hospital to give me the accident report and my car keys. I had called coworkers to come move my car to our parking garage 2 blocks away. He got the keys from them.
They don't *need* to see any of it. Assuming it's your car, they already have everything. It's just a way to ticket you for failing to comply with the now antiquated laws.
I've had a few officers *very* upset with me, because I simply answer "no sir." I don't know if his radar gun incorrectly showed me doing 1,000 mph, or I had a burned out taillight, or whatever.
Was I doing 57 in a 55 zone? If I said that, he'd ticket me on the spontaneous confession.
If I said, "because you know I have 10 kilos of cocaine in the trunk", you can be sure it would become a felony stop, and I'll become rather familiar with the asphalt while officers search the car.
If it becomes something, my defense attorney will want to know that I said nothing.. Nothing is easier to defend than a spontaneous confession.
They've become very upset. One actually got me out of the car, searched me, and told me I was going to jail. He then said, "Just say why I pulled you over, and this will be easier on you. Do you know why I pulled you over?" I responded "no sir." Because he couldn't coerce a spontaneous confession for a crime that didn't exist, he couldn't charge me. He finally said that he thought I was speeding, but he wasn't sure. He said it looked like I was flying past other cars like they were stopped. In fact, the other cars were almost stopped in the lane exiting, and I was on the lane continuing through. So his recollection was correct, I was going faster than some other cars. His assertion, and what he wanted to charge me with, was incorrect.
He gave up, and we went into small talk. He asked what I did for work. There's no harm in that one, unless I answered "drug dealer" or "freelance assassin". He asked where I lived, so I referred him to my drivers license address. That was a trick question. If I said anything but what it said on my license, that's a civil infraction here. He told me a bit about himself, which I thought was odd, but I let him talk. Then he finally let me go, as I wasn't answering anything.
Now, if you didn't know the address thing, and you gave an address different than your license, you'd be cited for the infraction. That's one of those harms in talking to them.
About 8,300 to 7,700 years ago, the melting ice dam over Hudson Bay's southernmost extension narrowed to the point where pressure and its buoyancy lifted it free, and the ice-dam failed catastrophically. Lake Ojibway's beach terraces show that it was 250 metres (820 ft) above sea level. The volume of Lake Ojibway is commonly estimated to have been about 163,000 cubic kilometres, more than enough water to cover a flattened-out Antarctica with a sheet of water 10 metres (33 ft) deep. That volume was added to the world's oceans in a matter of months.
I'm not saying that it's possible, or even probable. It's just an example of what destabilized polar ice can do. There's a whole lot of mass there.
Remember, the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami was caused by a 1,000 mile long rift shifting by 50 feet over a few minutes. If a sufficiently sized chunk (or chunks) of ice moved enough, there could be catastrophic effects for boating and coastal areas.
The long-term sea-level rise will be slow, and civilization will change around it. The short term effects of such events can be fast and catastrophic.
You're absolutely right. They have been attempting to break into the market since "Windows Pocket PC", "Windows CE", and "Windows XP Tablet PC Edition". The one thing they're failing to recognize is that consumers work on very strange rationale. That's how Microsoft really took over the consumer market to start. "oohh, it comes with this new buzzword "Microsoft".". Apple and Android currently own the small device market. Not long ago, Blackberry owned the phone portion, but their failure to keep up has left them dying. Now, I don't know anyone who uses a blackberry.
It's the same in any market.. You can make the best widget at the lowest price, but if the consumers don't adopt it, it will die.
They are setting a mediocre widget, at a high price, and despite all their efforts it will die.
When they say "Windows 19 sold 14 trillion copies" before the release, what they really mean is that they sold most of the inventory from the manufacturer warehouse to vendors. For example...
BestBuy has something like 2,900 retail stores. Walmart has about 10,130 stores.
That's 13,130 stores. At 100 units each, that's 1.3M units shipped. Every one of them was sold, as they've been sold to the stores. Not a single one is in the hands of a consumer yet.
They don't indicate the batch size. On the first edition, they had an overstock of 6M units, so we could assume the batch was about 8M. 1.3M shipped to the above two vendors. 0.7M to other vendors. 6M unsold, because the vendors never moved them all.
On this version, if they only produced 1M, they would be 0.3M under, creating this artificial lack of supply. If they can hype it up, and people buy out what's already been shipped to vendors, the vendors will order more. They could probably get 2M sold to consumers, from the perceived inability to get one.. Consumers are dumb. They'll say "oohh, they're almost sold out! I need to get one while I can!"

"had a history of cardiac problems"
"was shot in the head"

Any of those little blurbs, even if not the actual cause of death, would have been very useful.

I just re-read that post. I said "here" enough times to make it clear.
Laws vary by jurisdiction. That's why you won't get a New York attorney defending you in Florida. Or a US attorney defending you in China.
In my state, you *must* do it. I was wrong on the days. I thought it was 15. It's currently 10. That may have changed since last time I read the laws.

When I renewed my Florida license last year, I had to provide multiple pieces of identification. Check the above linked page for the options.
I provided ... birth certificate, social security card, car insurance with my new address, and copy of my bank statement for the new address. You need 4 pieces of identification now, if you're a naturally born citizen. More is required if you're an immigrant.
I was technically in violation for about a week, while I waited for stuff to come in the mail. The bank hadn't sent me a new statement yet. When I went back, there were plenty of people being turned away because they didn't have "enough" proof.

Here's some info on it.

15 days in this state. But even if you moved yesterday, you can still be cited. It will be up to you to prove that you did comply within the 15 days. Failure to show the proof within that period is a violation. Even if you did file the change yesterday, but you haven't received your new license, you'll be cited. You can submit the change online, and they mail your license to your house.
So if you moved on day 1, and cited on day 2. If you forget to go show proof by day 15, you're in violation. If you misplace the citation while unpacking the stuff in your house, or you simply can't get the time off of work to go prove it (since you just took a few days off to move and all), you're still screwed.
The window of 30 days doesn't matter, the above still applies.
The same applies for failing to have proof of insurance, or your registration in the car. When I was in an accident in January, I found that they don't need either. I was busy being tied down to a backboard. The officer ran my plate, got my registration info, insurance info and my license image. He just compared my license photo to me, and yup, it was still me.
He came down to the hospital to give me the accident report and my car keys. I had called coworkers to come move my car to our parking garage 2 blocks away. He got the keys from them.
They don't *need* to see any of it. Assuming it's your car, they already have everything. It's just a way to ticket you for failing to comply with the now antiquated laws.
I've had a few officers *very* upset with me, because I simply answer "no sir." I don't know if his radar gun incorrectly showed me doing 1,000 mph, or I had a burned out taillight, or whatever.
Was I doing 57 in a 55 zone? If I said that, he'd ticket me on the spontaneous confession.
If I said, "because you know I have 10 kilos of cocaine in the trunk", you can be sure it would become a felony stop, and I'll become rather familiar with the asphalt while officers search the car.
If it becomes something, my defense attorney will want to know that I said nothing.. Nothing is easier to defend than a spontaneous confession.
They've become very upset. One actually got me out of the car, searched me, and told me I was going to jail. He then said, "Just say why I pulled you over, and this will be easier on you. Do you know why I pulled you over?" I responded "no sir." Because he couldn't coerce a spontaneous confession for a crime that didn't exist, he couldn't charge me. He finally said that he thought I was speeding, but he wasn't sure. He said it looked like I was flying past other cars like they were stopped. In fact, the other cars were almost stopped in the lane exiting, and I was on the lane continuing through. So his recollection was correct, I was going faster than some other cars. His assertion, and what he wanted to charge me with, was incorrect.
He gave up, and we went into small talk. He asked what I did for work. There's no harm in that one, unless I answered "drug dealer" or "freelance assassin". He asked where I lived, so I referred him to my drivers license address. That was a trick question. If I said anything but what it said on my license, that's a civil infraction here. He told me a bit about himself, which I thought was odd, but I let him talk. Then he finally let me go, as I wasn't answering anything.
Now, if you didn't know the address thing, and you gave an address different than your license, you'd be cited for the infraction. That's one of those harms in talking to them.
Well, if it's increasing in surface area, but decreasing in mass, that would be a problem.
I think the concern they're trying to address is the same as one of the arctic ice concerns.

I'm not saying that it's possible, or even probable. It's just an example of what destabilized polar ice can do. There's a whole lot of mass there.
Remember, the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami was caused by a 1,000 mile long rift shifting by 50 feet over a few minutes. If a sufficiently sized chunk (or chunks) of ice moved enough, there could be catastrophic effects for boating and coastal areas.
The long-term sea-level rise will be slow, and civilization will change around it. The short term effects of such events can be fast and catastrophic.
You're absolutely right. They have been attempting to break into the market since "Windows Pocket PC", "Windows CE", and "Windows XP Tablet PC Edition". The one thing they're failing to recognize is that consumers work on very strange rationale. That's how Microsoft really took over the consumer market to start. "oohh, it comes with this new buzzword "Microsoft".". Apple and Android currently own the small device market. Not long ago, Blackberry owned the phone portion, but their failure to keep up has left them dying. Now, I don't know anyone who uses a blackberry.
It's the same in any market.. You can make the best widget at the lowest price, but if the consumers don't adopt it, it will die.
They are setting a mediocre widget, at a high price, and despite all their efforts it will die.
Nah, they're doing just like they always do.
When they say "Windows 19 sold 14 trillion copies" before the release, what they really mean is that they sold most of the inventory from the manufacturer warehouse to vendors. For example...
BestBuy has something like 2,900 retail stores.
Walmart has about 10,130 stores.
That's 13,130 stores. At 100 units each, that's 1.3M units shipped. Every one of them was sold, as they've been sold to the stores. Not a single one is in the hands of a consumer yet.
They don't indicate the batch size. On the first edition, they had an overstock of 6M units, so we could assume the batch was about 8M. 1.3M shipped to the above two vendors. 0.7M to other vendors. 6M unsold, because the vendors never moved them all.
On this version, if they only produced 1M, they would be 0.3M under, creating this artificial lack of supply. If they can hype it up, and people buy out what's already been shipped to vendors, the vendors will order more. They could probably get 2M sold to consumers, from the perceived inability to get one.. Consumers are dumb. They'll say "oohh, they're almost sold out! I need to get one while I can!"
