The images I get in my head though are of this giant rock balancing on something...and then a little bird lands on one end....and the east coast is wiped out.
My new solution: get thousands of birds to sit on the other side of the rock!;)
If the problem is a large rock that could fall into the sea if the volcano erupted - wouldnt the obvious solution be to break up / get rid of / move / destroy said rock before such an event happens?
We move mountains to build highways, so I don't see that this would be technologically unrealistic.
From most of the stuff I read, it breaks SQL because it blocks the port SQL communicates on with the firewall. In the FAQ on their website they say all you have to do is open up the port again.
As soon as I get ahold of the patch this will be the first thing I'll be playing with.
I think in actuality if you asked most Americans what they thought of the BBC, the answer you would get is 'The what?'.
You're giving them/us way too much credit.

I always hope comments like these are meant as sarcasm. It really makes me wonder if today's generation has any idea of the author's from generations ago that did very similar work. For instance:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberpunk
I guess I'm getting old when I've actually read the books that current movies are based on, but when I try to discuss them with people I get a blank look. Sometimes I wonder if the thought process is 'what is a book?' Of course this would segue into Bradbury....oh nevermind...
Might help to know what spyware. For instance, some spyware (Wild Tangent I think) is installed by certain chat programs like AIM. Not all spyware comes via the browser directly.
In my general experience most people get malware from downloading music, so that is another possibility.
Mandating that all branches use one thing - ie: taking away all their choice - would be using the same sort of pressure techniques that people complain about MS for.
I would hope that if the other branches were to move to Linux they would do it because it is the best option, not because it was the mandated option.
What about OS accounting? Post all your accounting information online for the public to view, comment on, etc. That to me seems like a true open source business model.
I have the Samsung SPH-i500 via Sprint. This is the size of a normal phone, and was designed for being a phone first. I really like the fact that if I wanted it only for use as a phone - it is still a great phone.
If you open it up it has a screen on top that has your phone menus (like address book etc) or Palm OS menus. On the bottom it has your keypad and a small area to write - just like the Palm. So the PDA functionality is also pretty good.
I also like that this particular phone does not have a camera. It has a color screen, multiple ringtones, etc. It doesn't send SMS to other sprint phones natively (although it can receive them), but there is a 3rd party app you can download for this.
My service (quality/coverage) with Sprint has been excellent. My experience with customer service with Sprint - not so much.
I think when you ask this question you have to ask if you want something that was designed to be a good phone first, or a good PDA first. I think, out of all the phones I have seen, this is the best combination.
It seems a lot of people are curious about a 'real comparison'. It would seem that the/. community has enough people running enough OS machines in different environments to get some 'real' ideas about stats - and to work with some people to get a true comparisons page. Of course, I could be completely wrong, and what people want is really just a forum to complain and they dont care about any real facts.
My operating system of choice is my mind, I haven't found an OS with higher uptime yet.
Slashdot Mirror
I made an SMS package for it and pushed it out to all of our Network Admins that have XP. Opened the needed ports using the adm in the GPO.
Install, about 30 minutes (I probably should have put in a warning before the reboot, oops) - zero problems on any of our PCs.
I had to apply two hotfixes for the SMS Advanced client (832860 and 832862). SMS works fine.
I so far haven't found anything that 'breaks' that wouldn't break due to a 'regular' firewall - so it's been fairly easy to open the right ports.
I guess I'm just lucky I don't have the certain applications (like CRM) running here, but I've tested everything I use daily and no problems so far.
Ever heard of a diversity class? What exactly do you think that is, except a HOWTO for interacting with others - especially women....
Well, that is a good reason ;)

How would you feel if they all moved to FreeBSD?
