AP news- Microsoft today issued another fuschia alert, warning of 4 more Internet Explorer vulnerabilities...
Commodore BASIC had a dynamic keyboard feature where the program could rewrite itself on the fly. Basically you'd print the new program lines on screen, put a run command at the bottom, fill the keyboard buffer with return characters, and end the program. The returns in the buffer would input the new lines on screen, effectively rewriting the program - the run at the end restarted it.
Too bad I lost the Compute! issue that discussed it.
I work for the Aurora Public Library. To prevent abuse (people staying on the internet for 10+ hours a day) and to give everyone a fair chance of getting online, we require a library card to access the system. Every 24 hours all records of library cards used for computer access are purged from the system, and we do not track what sites patrons visit (though we will kick them off if other patrons complain of seeing pron on someone's screen). Usually all 40 computer terminals are in use at any time. It works well enough - people have to get a library card, register as a reciprocal borrower, or buy a computer use only card if they live outside of any library district. The few complaints we have are outweighed by the fact that refrence staff doesn't have to babysit the internet lab all the time.
First of all, if you are seeing the little Beachball more than once in a great while, BUY MORE RAM. In fact max out the ram in the machine. If that does not help, try this- Tweaking vnodes for enhanced performance.

Only 32 days? lemme look up Coren's bio on Nightmare...
Biography for High mortal Human Coren the Restorer of Hope [Larstown Militia]
Level: 49 Age: 46 years
You are neutral.
You were born on the 3rd day of Ketralki, year 24.
You married Fiona the th of Kantki 55 in Nepuraz.
You have 192 days and 29 minutes of online time.
You began your adventures on the 3rd day of Ketralki, year 42.
Your native town is Larstown, and you are Bokan in faith.
ABIT boards have a similar feature, at least the KT7-RAID that I have. If the CPU fan stops, the board immediately shuts off power. I'm not sure if they have a power supply fan monitor on the newer boards.
I played Everquest for a whole 2 weeks. It was boring, laggy as hell, and it did _not_ have the same close community I was used to on the MUD I play. Of course Everquest has been trashed long ago, and I am still everyday logging into the Mud I've played for the last 7 years. Community helps people! I've known the same people on Nightmare for several years, and have gone out of state to visit many of them. Of course I still ahve no life, but at least I get more out of nonlife than people who actually _pay_ for the priviledge;-).
I remember reading a book- Vorage to the Red Planet by Terry Bisson if I remember correctly. Basically the corporations have bought out America, ie Disney and Gerber own the national parks and the corporations run the country. The book was amusing, however the scary thing is I can believe one day the U.S. will be run by the Corporate Whores...
BTW Terry Bisson's book seems to be out of print
I work at the Aurora Public Library in Illinois. http://aurora.lib.il.us - Our catalog/circulation system is Horizon from Epixtech. For everything else we use Citrix Metaframe. The servers are owntown, with T1 connections to the branches. Staf accounts plus Patron access goes through Citrix- most of the time really smooth, however hardware failures occasionally cause problems;). If you wish to know more contact me at coren@ livejournal.com and I will see if the head of network services would like to talk to you.

1 ?"FUCK":?"YOU":GOTO 1 RUN Of course, it would be oh so much more fun to have the program rewrite itself mid-run using the dynamic keyboard method.
I'll take all the tits I can get.
IC's are dying
Are you saying that my 3 year old couldn't figure that out? How insulting!
Opens just fine on OSX using Textedit :D
When are they going to port MAME to my trusty Commodore 128D? Even the C64 should get a port!
Try www.macupdate.com for loads of software, I prefer it over versiontracker myself.
Nooo..keep the dancing badgers awaaaaay!
Coren is clueless just like Tink.
Where's the OS X port!

Terminus comes with Win32, MacOS, and Linux binaries all in the same box- not the most recent game but I still like it.

I've used Paypal once so far, perhaps I'll use it on an ebay bid. Then again, I'm poor and they can't take money away that I don't have ;).
