This sounds like microsoft. But you know they'll just say they are going to do give them out anyway until 2007 or something like they always do.
The summary says that it will boost browsers like Firefox, but I highly doubt it. I don't know that many people who aren't already on Windows xp, but the plain fact is, plenty of people browse websites that can ONLY be viewed properly in IE. I hate it. You hate it.

It really is sad for IP and science in general when we have to go to court for a while to find out if we can make a garage door opener remote. The DMCA is possibly the worst thing that has ever happened to science in general. It lets companies be anti-competitive legally under a shroud of "protecting their intellectual property".
I trust OUR electronic voting machines, but only because I've never seen any exposed vulnerabilities in all the years we've been using them.
In regard to my sig, you're a punk. I think you're just mad that my karma is excellent and I actually post insightful comments that add something to the discussion, unlike your small retorts that should be modded down as Flamebait.
It might be nice while they're working for you, but if you piss them off(who hasn't been an employer and had an employee pissed off?) then they have inside knowledge about your company and the ability to hack.
On the other hand, I wouldn't consider these VBS writers "hackers". They are just glorified script kiddies. Don't reward that behavior.
Does this mean that they are just not researching it anymore because SPF is awesome? Or does this mean that they are not going to certify anything that deals with DNS based TXT records showing who should be able to send mail from certain domains?
This is very vague. I looked at the FA but it's extremely boring and fixed width font and it kept making me fall asleep. I scanned it for comprehension, but I was unable to figure out what is going on.
Regarding movie playback, I hope that they allow for portable storage attachments, allowing use of the PSP as a portable media center. I'd buy one if it did this.
Blogs from people are also not absolute fact. You don't really know who is behind the keyboard. Don't take anything you don't see with your own eyes as fact.
In fact, with today's CG, don't even take that as fact. You're living in a dream world Neo.
The major problem that I have with using GNU/Linux as a desktop is the lack of a standardized UI. In Windows or Mac, no matter what program I'm in, I know based on UI guidelines and traditions that I am going to be able to use alt+f4 to close a program or window+r to run something, or command+f to open sherlock.
It is also a strength, because of the different choices developers have, but as a user, it is annoying to not have a consistant UI.
If you just use a mouse, it's not a problem, but the keyboard shortcuts are a big deal to me.
A lot of good programs are GTK and a lot of good ones are QT. You almost have to CHOOSE if you want to have a consistant UI.
It seems like a thicker liquid that is not near solid would be easier to swim in since you can effectively pull yourself forward with the same strokes more at a time. In other words, your body moves more than your arm does in the stroke, the intent to the stroke.
The article says that neither produced faster times consistantly, however, so whatever. I don't plan on swimming in syrup. That's nasty.
Our voting machines are awesome in Louisiana. In my parish we use the AVC model. You go in and press buttons and then hit "cast vote" and it goes "doo doo doo" and it gives me great satisfaction.
I think it does have a paper trail and I've never heard of any vulnerabilities for it, and we have no hanging chads. Completely electronic.
I'd like to introduce you to PHP, a rich environment, released as free software. It includes a programming language, an interactive shell(if you type code and then EOL), and extensive graphing capability. What's more, PHP comes with a spectacular collection of functions for mathematical and statistical manipulations, and everything in the whole world you could wnat to do -- with still more capabilities available in optional packages.
PHP can do anything you want to do, and for free, and it's extremely fast with zend optimizer. I use it for all my shell scripts as well.
Not only does it have a problem with video cards, but it is dog slow. I don't think that this is a problem with the mac in general, but rather a problem of emulating another architecture in software on the cpu that is not designed to run those instructions.
When I run xp pro on vpc on a mac( for some physicians who have it here and have to use it for hospital applications ), it takes FOREVER even to bring up internet explorer on a brand new powerbook g4.
I'm not sure why MS even ships xp with vpc. It seems like something that still works with most stuff, like Windows 98, would be better because it's real cpu requirements are MUCH lower.
I don't think the video card issues are the real problem. MS needs to just release a version of windows for the mac that can run as a.app if they want to have real compatibility, but then you'd still have to have a VM for the other x86 applications.
This is a good reason to use mime_defang with spamassassin. Either do that or what I do, have it actually attach the message as a.eml file(rfc 822 or whatever) and then you can view it in whatever you want and even reimport it into your mailbox.
I hate spam, but I haven't had a false positive or negative in forever combining the bayes inside spamassassin with the bayes inside thunderbird.
That is almost half of the price you said and a VERY awesome monitor. I work at a healthcare facility and several of our physicians have this monitor and it is awesome. Great response time as well. Very crisp.
It actually takes a certain amount of mail before the bayes even turns on. It doesn't want to turn itself on and then start scoring messages with a limited amount of intelligence.
If you want, I have put one of my user's spambox into a tgz if you want to untarball it and then run
For those not in the know, SURBL is really cool. It actually lets you scan the message(well, SA does that) and then look for urls that it links to. It compares this to a realtime BL of other people getting spam like you and if it is a known spam TARGET url then it blocks the message based on that.
It makes it really hard for them unless they just register countless domains.
Excellent technology, and I will be upgrading to the newest stable.
I'm glad it didn't hit as hard as many people were expecting. Many people said that New Orleans was going to be a soup bowl and Mobile Bay was going to be totally obliterated.
I have a pdf full of pictures of destruction in Pensacola as well that I'd love to link, but I have no hosting that would stand up to/. readers clicking on a link towards the top of the discussion.
I don't think it hit gaming too terribly hard either as xbox live was still up and running:), except of course Burnout 3 which is always broken because it's one of EA's first attempts at Live-enabled games. Does anyone know how much money Microsoft paid EA to do Live! if any? Or did EA finally just give in?

If they really want to stop piracy, they should do what Sega did with the dreamcast, using a non-standard format, the gd-rom.
It will be impossible for people to burn those other formats.
