Alright, so I may not be posting an popular opinion here, but I *do* think that camera's add security. And I am speaking from experience, too. When I was robbed, the police was able to apprehend the thief by watching the footage of a security camera at the local shopping mall.
It is a commonly accepted theory among psychiatrists that autism is caused by genetic causes, and not by external causes like upbringing or other factors (like vaccines).
Just to show how mind-warped IT people are, I immediately assumed that this that to do something with the IT 'cloud', rather than actual physical clouds... Go figure..
So how about switching to to The Liberty Alliance (http://www.projectliberty.org) ? It seems like a serious alternative to Microsoft's Passport, and seems to have enough support in the industry to become a serious competitor to OpenID and MS-Passport.
An excellent choice indeed. I own the 20th Anniversary edition myself. However, it must be said that it deals on managing (big) software development projects, rather than on the actual coding itself. Still an excellent choice though.
Ok, so im not really a developer, but I have been looking for some company to code a MUD in C for me, with a GUI builder included.
Perhaps someone could enlighten me and explain to me just how I should go about outsourcing such a project ? As mentioned, Im not a developer myself so Im primarily interested in the actual usage of the finished application. Where to turn to and the estimated costs of such an endeavorement would be of additonal help
with a few minor differences since google's primary engine still searches other sites instead of holding all data
Well... Google appears to be working quite hard on actually storing all the data if you ask me...
Let's see :
1.) We have the Google Desktop feature which allows you to search your own documents 'from all computers' and let's Google actually store the entire documents up on their servers (for up to 30 days).
2.) Google Mail and 'Chat logging', which stores your communications.
3.) Google 'digitizing' everything from books to the national archives.
In addition to the live-action animatronics that in my opinion made the original such a masterpiece, this sequel will include CG animation elements as well. I just pray that they won't mess that part up, as it can ruin an entire movie for me - just as the CG in the Star Wars prequels (instead of sticking to the suits & animatronics used in the originals) ruined those films for me.
Looks like the demand for this has already exceeded the capacity that google had allocated for this service. When I tried it, I got the following page http://pages.google.com/registrationoff :
"...

Well according to the website http://www.qeradiant.com/?data=editors/gtk it currently supports the following games: Quake II, Quake III Arena, Quake III: Team Arena, Quake III Arena modifications, Return To Castle Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Soldier Of Fortune II, Heretic II, Half-Life, and Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force - but there's no mention of Quake 4 anywhere, though.
It's indeed very extensible: each game supported in GtkRadiant is put into something called a 'game pack'. That includes everything specific to the game, tools, documentation, models, helper textures etc.

Not exactly the 'official' editors used by ID

GtkRadiant under GPL

· Score: 3, Interesting
For what it's worth, GtkRadiant is not exactly the same level editor as the one that was used by ID during the development of Quake: rather, it's a heavily modified version of QERadiant (Quake II's level editor) and Q3Radiant (Quake III Arena's level editor), which were used by ID.
And for once, the more 'traditional' analysts (Gartner, in this case) actually agree with the security experts : "... the range and seriousness of the vulnerabilities patched in this update cause us great concern. The database products alone include 37 vulnerabilities, many rated as easily exploitable and some potentially allowing remote database access
See http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?doc_cd=1374 77 for details.
And just to drive the point home, you can check out the E3Girls.com website at http://www.e3girls.com/, which is totally dedicated to "Booth Babes: It's not about the Games"...
Well, as you have already quoted the response also read:
"... We hesitate to recommend a flat prohibition against wildcards in "registry"-class zones... "
And, as this behaviour actually appears to be fully in conformance with all related rfc's it appears that they *can't* actually prohibit it, either.
To me, it appears that the problem is just that the specification resulted in unforeseen consequences (and as we all know, if scientists can be counted on for anything, it's for creating unforeseen consequences) so if we do not view this behaviour as desirable then we should submit a new rfc.
True, VeriSign didnt actually ask anyone's permissions to do this. But the IAB doesn't force anyone to ask permission, they just recommend it.
But then again, if this all is actually in full conformance with all of the related RFC's, they dont really need to ask anyone's permission now do they ? If we feel that the rfc's are wrong, then we should attempt to modify the rfc's, instead of attacking the people that are conforming to them.
And according to that response, the IAB actually seems to be perfectly fine with this. It appears that the DNS "wildcard" mechanism has been part of the DNS protocol since the original specifications were written twenty years ago.
And the IAB seems to feel that " If you want to use wildcards in your zone and understand the risks, go ahead, but only do so with the informed consent of the entities that are delegated within your zone ".

The url pointing to an IAB response in the story posted actually is about an other issue that happened somewhere in January. It was in response to Verisign's proposed wildcarding of only domains that contained non-ASCII characters, not all domains.
However, the IAB has issued a response to the current issue at the following URL.
Youre right about the project SeLinux or Security Enahnced Linux. Its at http://www.nsa.gov/selinux
But because this is a research project Im not sure that this proves there actually *using* Unix though...
Cats have been used widely to get rid of rats and mice since the beginning of time. perhaps you should get some of those ?

Maybe we should give VeriSign a little break here ? I mean, after all, what they did is in fact fully compliant with the DNS rfc's.
... jeez ...
If you dont like the protocol specifications, then go beat up the specs, and NOT the implementors.
Now go away and write a rfc draft to update the DNS specs you demons
