  1. Cool, .com dyn-dns on Verisign Speeds Up DNS Updates · · Score: 1

    Cool, now I can run my homelinux box with a dynamic-dns service on a TLD instead of the flaky yourname.dyndns.org Will this mean alot more people resort to home brew web servers?

  2. Re:Don't understand DNS on Verisign Speeds Up DNS Updates · · Score: 1

    As far as I understood: To save bandwidth, a zone file can be dozens of megabytes and passing them down to their subnodes is alot of traffic.

  3. Re:Just take your time on Requiem For A Motherboard · · Score: 1

    "with the correct standoffs" oh yeah. i once REPLACED a motherboard and forgot to take out the OLD standoffs! they interfered and the system couldn't access the harddrive, because of those standoffs. took us two days messing around, blaming windows (and linux) until we braught it to a store: "you forgot to remove the old standoffs" D'oh!

    This is so true, ... Many people get freaked out when they hear some disorder term and get labeled if they match 'part of' the criteria. Please, this is stupid. Acting like doctor with his PhD... Only a trained psych* has the skills and ability to identify a disorder.

  5. sad they're closing on Webmonkey Closes its Doors · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Back when I was a n00b, webmonkey was the place I went to learn HTML. They've always been a neat and friendly place.

    I was kind of assuming they'd close. In recent years they've been lacking on 'new' technologies, that's my impression. They were fairly strong years ago, when the web technologies were still overseeable und basic: html, javascript, cgi... and then nowadays it's just too much to cover for webmonkey.
    Thanks WM for offering your *free* articles, they've been a great recource over the years.

    i'm just curious, why would linux/mplayer be probably better?
