"You must not allow the voter to take any proof of their voting out of the booth; they must leave all evidence in the booth or the system breaks. That's why a paper receipt is desirable, but the system must keep it." Does this mean those cool "I Voted" stickers are out?;-)
This is a great idea. This is really one purpose of public key encryption. It wouldn't be hard to write a little script to download something from one member's ftp server or something, then sign it and post the result.
In my opinion, it's more like the cool kids asking the smart kids to help them with their homework. There's nothing wrong with that, until they just want the answers. Then the smart kids gotta start expecting some kinda payment.
NTFS and doc, for example...
We cancelled all our services from AT&T, and that's when we started to ask to be removed from their lists. We don't get any more calls from them these days, but for well over a year they were pretty annoying.
AT&T recently got in trouble for violating the no-call list, because they were telephone "spamming." Also, I've gotten more telemarketing calls from AT&T than any other company, despite the fact that I've asked to be removed from their lists many times. It seems to me that AT&T will use this to spam with e-mail now, since the telephone is no longer working. I don't imagine they'll be violating their ISP's regulations if they do start spamming, either.
I don't think so either. But you did put the joke in terms I didn't originally think of. I do believe, what he meant, was that the poster should fly to the train.
It's from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a book, which is really hillarious. Of course, if I could fly to the train, I'd just fly the whole way to work. What a blast that'd be.
My school - Kansas State University - blocks all p2p networks I've tried (except one), so they don't need to scan for students running the programs, no one will.
We also have some program that scans for viruses (actually, it scans to see if your computer is vulnerable). If it finds your computer is vulnerable, your port is automatically blocked without warning. I really don't understand what they have to complain about.
In my opinion, it's the school's network and they should be allowed to do whatever they want ith it. It's my responsibility to fool them at any chance I get. You can always use a VPN to circumvent this stuff, and being in linux most of the time, I don't have (much) trouble when it comes to windows viri. You could also determine which computers they use to scan with and then just block them with a firewall.
I have noticed this before, but it doesn't particularly bother me. By the way, I've been in the database for a few years now and I'm not in WhitePages.com.
Actually, what does bother me is that my Dad has taken steps to not show up on WhitePages.com and other similar pages, not show up in the phone book and such, and yet there is a whole lot of info you can find on him just typing his name into google because of the organizations he's in (and specifically their newsletters).
There's not a whole lot that he can do about this, but still, it seems like companies and organizations could be a lot better about putting info on the web. If it must be there, at least put in the simple robots file...
You know, I want to completely flame you right now. I want to make you "flame broiled" like the burgers from Burger King or something. I want to pick on you, to make you totally pissed off and want to burst into flames, but, I don't know what I would say.
I know what you mean. You should know that I have not only sent this man (and the old governor) letters (as in, written), but have met them in person. The letters and meeting had nothing to do with this specific topic, but I didn't send that letter because I was lazy.
Some lawyer over at the EFF was paid to write that letter, and certainly did a better job on it than I would have done. Also, if the staff recieved a whole bunch of the same letter, do you think they'd take the time to read them all? You seem like a smart dude so I'll assume no.
I do see what you mean, however, but taking the "stupid," lazy way out is (usually) better than doing nothing at all.
Have a nice day:-)
We had a computer club back in high school for about 3 months. The problem was that we needed a teacher to support it and she would never show up. It was more of a programming club than anything. We sorta setup a linux box but didn't have any use for it until we became interested in MOOs. They're essentially MUDs that you can program easily and in the game (Mud Object Oriented). It was a lot of fun but we showed up after spring break only to find the linux box gone with the power cord still plugged into the wall.
The administration didn't really like what they didn't understand. Stupid humans;-) It was a lot of fun though up until that point...
Wow, I sent some of those EFF faxes to this guy - you know, the ones that take a minute flat to send - about this topic essentially? Anyway, he sent back letters that he was working on it, you know, the typical political response, I figured that was exactly what it was.
I'm pleasantly surprised I was wrong and will have to call and thank him or something. Kansas roxors.
I use Debian and IceWM. I'm told that these work great on slow computers, but even my old one wasn't as slow as the ones you're talking about. I can also recommend blackbox or windowmaker as window managers. Also, slackware is a great distro to run on old hardware, I know that from experience.
There are many good choices out there.
That's funny. I was metamoderating when I came across and just had to reply - that's exactly what I thought, and I don't even watch Friends, is it even still on?
Pretty soon anything that says something is inside will not be allowed. You won't be able to say, on a box for example, that something is inside the box. "Toy Inside," and especially "Chip Inside" will both be outlawed. I'm tired - so sorry if this made no sense.
He recently started to work from home. I moved off to college now, but I was there for a while. Anyway...
We built him an office in the basement, and used that as an excuse to finish the basement too. We put in some doors that are mainly glass, which keep out some of the sound but also let him see through to what's going on. His employer paid to install a second phone line, and he has one phone and a fax machine connected to it. We can hear calls to his office if we're in the basement, but he just ignores them if he's not in his office (and not working...).
He doesn't have any trouble working even if we're watching TV in the next room, but I can see this as being a problem for some people.
I hope this helps a little, and I hope it makes sense, my brain is in a bit of a fog right now. Good luck!

Soylent green is people!
Hey, Hackers rocks! Also, I told you not to tell anyone else about the reroute script I've been working on...
I think he means non-conservatives. Liberal. ;-)

what, why would you like to look at my picture?
Yeah, we do that kinda stuff for fun here at KSU. We don't have to crawl most of the time, and they give us flashlights, but still...
This is a great idea. This is really one purpose of public key encryption. It wouldn't be hard to write a little script to download something from one member's ftp server or something, then sign it and post the result.
Waking yourself up is a discipline that's not hard to learn, and it'd be handy if you're someone like an international spy with a license to kill...

Wow, well put. So well put, in fact, that I just had to say so. If I had my mod points still, I'd bump this up to a 5.

Copying tapes or copying radio to tape never seemed to cause a problem in the past as well.
