she looked like crap before, and she still look like crap after.
her eyebrows don't seem straight in the "before" picture to me and the lighting look like it has been rigged to make her look worse in the "after" picture.
but i still agree with the verdict. she isn't satisfied with the service and is letting the world know. there's nothing defamatory about that.
and consider that these so called "root servers" are actually several hundreds (thousands?) of servers, in different physical locations. i think i remember mr vixie saying F alone had around 200 machines
i dont remember the actual day/month/year, but maybe 3 years ago: MCI updated a bunch of routers, all at the same time, and screwed it up. a lot of people in north america were without internet for up to a day. i think this qualifies as major:)
Of course, people who CC: everybody they know with idiotic crap instead of BCC: make this problem much worse. and with hotmail not allowing bcc:'s it's just compounding the problem. idiot people posting my private address for all to see:\
you laugh, but one system we're testing for bank cards management is a big mix of proprietary binary DBs (read, binary files), ill-defined oracle tablespace, and huge ass XML files. the config files for the various utilies are sometimes XML, sometimes in-house flat files (just like unix), there's 3 different services that do basicly the same task, and "exchange" data using either binary files or xml (depending on what they're doing at the moment). to top it off, some of the utilities are written in java, and others in what appear to be C or C++
im not going to name the system (wouldn't want to break an NDA by mistake:) but it's not pretty
i fear it's deeper than that, and not just limited to americans.
for example, this week i had a friend ask me about a particular author. dominique something. saying she couldn't find anything about her. naturally, i had to see who was this mysterious author that even the great google had no idea who it was.. so i keyed in the name, and behold! on second link of the first page, there it was in all its glory, a full biography of said author.
i didn't type any mysterious search terms, weird operators, nor did i refine my search afterward. i typed the author name exactly as she said it.
i wish i could say that was the only time it happened, and i can't help but wonder WTF are these people searching for?
the problem here is that those garage doors openers are unlicensed transmitters using a band they wouldn't be allowed to use if it wasn't for the "low power" exceptions. if they'd put their transmitters on a public band or gotten a license, they wouldn't have this problem
the OP's point is still valid, the blind guy knows how much he's paying, but the cashier could have quoted him an artificially inflated number, one that's higher than the register's, and pocket the money
most routers still need null modems to access their console. and this was a shop near 3 datacenters (literally, the 3 are on a different corner of the same intersection, and the shop is in the middle of them)

and im sure in that 0 minutes it took you, each of your machines had their patches installed, rebooted, and tested
using debian i patched all of my servers in 15 minute, using a cute little script called apt-get
what's your point again?
we use srsplus.com, their pricing is decent. they also have an API, but we dont use it yet
that's because he's right
indeed. and to follow up on my previous comment, that's one of the best developper in the company :\

so no, i'm not surprised

i doubt it's 1/3. but they might produce less than a standard 60w. it might appear to be only 1/3 because our vision is logarithmic
i dont think this would work.you're still knowingly participating in a fraud, even if you didnt initiate it.
proving it is another game, but it's still a crime
i find the idea that anything in space can "topple" or "fall down" highly amusing

not open .doc ? are they fucking insane? 90% of the business is just that messing with .doc
guess we know who to thanks when productivity drops to zero in the coming days!
