IP routing and cell phone number portability are two very very different things.
IP routing has to occur for every packet.
Phone call routing has to occur once per session, or more if you're changing cell towers during your call, but still.
There's no way you can compare the "pain" to change DNS with the horrible horrible things that would happen to the internet if ip's started jumping all over the place.
The internet routing system is already almost to it's knees, whereas the phone system has a strong pre-existing means of routing calls, through fixed physical lines, as opposed to etherial internet routes.
Maybe if the judge doesn't understand the differences between these two situations he shouldn't be hearing the case in the first place.
I agree that there are larger issues here, but even just trying to take the IPs with you for the short-term will cause unquestionable havoc. Plus look at the dates in the fillings, this guy has had an issue with NAC for several years now, and he hasn't been able to set up a new hosting location in that long of a period? That's his own damn fault he deserves to lose all his customers.
Uh, look at the times. He published his review well before the real 0.9 was out. It came out today, his review is from several days ago. Maybe you should look at the post time before you reply.
You can't post a review of something 0.9, without any disclaimer about it being and RC, and not be trying to pass it off as the actual release. If he wanted people to think it was RC code he was reviewing he would have had it in huge letters at the top. Maybe he thought it was final, maybe he just wanted others to think it was, either way, he deserves the server-ass-kicking he's getting.
Serves the idiot right for claiming to review the final bits for 0.9 when he was really reviewing the Release Candidate. That kind of discredits everything he says now doesn't it.
Well, since it's not the actual 0.9 release, it's only a Release Candidate, it still shows the old version number. This isn't that the installer hasn't been updated, it's that the installer version number doesn't change until the actual version is released, not the RC for the version.
I'm pretty sure that, in New Jersey at least, you can't have profanity or digits in your legal name. Now teaching your kid to spell their name that way would be a completely different story...
> How about "Officer, I am not here dealing drugs, I am here on private business.".
Right.... because the guy standing next to you selling drugs couldn't also say this to the cop. If you are stopped by the police they have every right to know things about you that influence their safety. If you are wanted for killing another cop, if you often carry HIV infected needles on you, etc. To be able to reasonably protect their own safety, they have the right to determine who you are with a reasonable certainty, a certainty that goes beyond trusting the name you give them. If you have outstanding warrants etc. you can't claim that the police shouldn't know about it, you've already done something wrong, and you've now gotten caught, sorry I don't feel sorry for you. A simple fact to live your life by, "If you're not doing something wrong, you don't have to worry." Or you could listen to the guys over there with the tinfoil hats on who will try to tell you otherwise. Unless you're a cop, you have no right to tell them where the line that defines an acceptable level of their safety lies.
It's not bad considering the only alternative is dialup. The latencies are noticed in things other than games, web browsing has a noticeable lag between the link click and the page loading. But the page comes down almost complete in one big burst, so the total time for page load probably averages out close to DSL, you just notice the gap more on the satellite. Our version has a USB connection that hooks the modem to the computer and appears as a USB Ethernet connection. We had to run W2k Server to share this connection out using Routing and Remote Access, but that works pretty well. I'm not sure about the newer hardware, we've been on satellite close to 2.5 years.
This is very very true, I hate Mozilla, it's huge, clunky and slow. Firebird however is my primary browser. I only go into IE when sites are messed up.
When blaster came out it was announced that the existing snort rules for RPC attacks would detect it. I would assume that the same is true for this attack.
Since Apple is still targeting a niche market, it has a completely different user base and therefore completely different support needs. If everyone and the mother, grandmother, etc. had an apple, there'd be just as many support calls as there are now, more actually, because no one would be familiar with the interface and those not geeky enough to figure it out would have to pay for hand-holding sessions. You can't compare a machine that has a niche market vs. the most popular computer architecture in the world.
You're not understanding what he's saying. He's not arguing that the Oracle is cached in RAM, he's saying so is system that the article is about. When the article claims to be writing to disk, it isn't it's mearly writing to the file cache. Therefore the durablility doesn't exist because when the power clicks off all that cache is going bye, bye. The performance gain they claim is impossible when writing to non-volitile storage. That is the very point this post was trying to make, not something about the article's claims about Oracle.
I don't think you should be modded down, I think you raise a valid point. There are many countries in the world who's leaders directly or subvertly direct aggression toward the US and the rest of the free world at large. There is a huge difference between N. Korea and Iraq however. N. Korea freely tells us that they have nuclear facilities. Any missles that they may have will be paraded through the streets where satellites will be ready to snap photos. Iraq on the other hand keeps jerking the chain of the international community, allowing just enough inspection to show that they could have missles, but not enough to ensure they don't. Iraq didn't just start being the unrulely child of the world, N. Korea did. The US response to Iraq has been building for 11 years. 11 years of Saddam disregarding the UN and his own people. Wait 11 years and see what position N. Korea is in with regard to UN embargo's and proposed US military action...it will be a very different picture.
This is not to say N. Korea is any more or less dangerous to the world than Iraq, just that Iraq THINKS it can play this game as long as it wants with the internation community and to a large extent, N. Korea CAN play the game, because of econmics and world opinion.
Oh I get it now, Iraq's WMD program is really just about launching missiles all over the world to cure AIDS, gee that sure is swell of them.
You need to pull your head out of your TV and realize we aren't living in Pleasantville. In the real world Saddam does want to stick a missile up your (and everyone else's) ass and it's not going to be designed to cure HIV. Maybe if Saddam wasn't such a coward he wouldn't put missiles and anti-aircraft systems next to Mosques and civilian's homes. Oh wait that's right Saddam cares as little about his own people as he cares about us. But we wouldn't want to interrupt his HIV cure delivery device research...
It's not like they're going be hiding these tags, in fact they'll probably take them off at the register just like they do now with anti-theft tags. Wal-Mart, as hard as you find this to believe, doesn't want to track you home so the CIA or FBI can watch you wear your pants with their satellites, etc. All the want is to pay less people to hang out on their time and therefore they want as much automation for inventory, checkout, etc. as they can get.
Calm down, everyone's not out to get you, if they were you would have been gotten by now.
Yeah I know that's the development engine, which once again wouldn't be common in a home environment, that is typcial if stupid users. If you're developing using SQL Server then you'd prob. know to patch.
While I would agree that Code Red benefited extensively from home users who were running 2k Pro or pirated 2k Server boxen that they didn't know had IIS running or didn't understand they were at risk. However, I find it hard to believe that many people have SQL server running on a home machine, even small businesses would rarely run SQL due to prohibitive costs and learning curves associated with client/server database solutions. An Access worm spreading through home users, likely, a SQL one? I'd have to think less likely, but I'd be interested to see examples or numbers to the contrary

In Firefox you can use the DOM Inspector if you have it installed. This will let you walk through the structure of the HTML page a level at a time.
There's actually a bug in Gecko that causes the mis-render, and it's fixed in the code that will be 1.1. I saw this on the burningedge 1.1 fix list.
wait a minute....web sites have ads on them???
This is not a flame...

I'm an innocent bystander don't black hole the state, just the state government ;-)

RC does stand for release candidate, what else would it stand for in software?

Just like the last time people brought this up, it's because Microsoft has started using Akamai to cache all their data.
When blaster came out it was announced that the existing snort rules for RPC attacks would detect it. I would assume that the same is true for this attack.

This exists in Phoenix, you just add multiple homepages, seperated by | ie:
project.sf.net | slashdot.org | etc.
