I'm well aware of how it could work. The iLUG crew is poor, there is only one ISP, and bandwidth is expensive. Now, once again, why is this a good idea at this time?
They were so nuts because even with a decent recycling plan it's tough to get people to recycle. Imagine if these things had cought on at a decent price point (people are saying sub-$6, but I wouldn't go over $2 personally). How many people return their bottles for the $.05 refund now?
Man, I came up with a whole slew of components back in the mid-late 80's when I was playing with legos a lot. I also sent in suggestions, and also got a similar letter in reply. I actually made a double-male connector by gluing two pieces together once, too.
You'd be wrong there, from support costs alone. Since we implemented XP at the site where I work (we are currently at ~95% implementation), the number of calls to the helpdesk is down to about half what it was when we were running primarily 9x. Patches also install much more reliably using automated mechanisms. Just figuring increased productivity due to less time on the phone with tech support and spontaneous reboots is probably reason enough to migrate. XP is also an OS which is securable. 9x is not. Where I work this is a big issue, since we get audited twice a year. The license for XP may be more, but with upward of 10k users we have a volume license which gets renewed every couple of years anyway, and the CALs for desktop machines all cost the same for us.
I read this in Natural History magazine probably ten years ago:
Never take more than three measurements. It will make sense on somebody's graph paper. If you only have one type of graph paper, only take two measurements.
Attacks like these raise an interesting question: Where are the good coporate spyware detection systems? I want to see a system that can be managed centrally and sends all spyware notifications to a centralized datatbase.
McAfee and Symantec don't have anything worthwhile. Does anybody know of a system like this?
Actually, it's pretty clear that they didn't know it was wrong, since her mom paid Sharman Networks a service fee that they thought was going toward royalties for music they downloaded.
Sorry, man. Anybody cracking into systems without first gaining express permission of the owner, especially with the intent of causing damage is by definition NOT a white hat. In fact, had he been a real white hat, there would have been nothing to fear from him.
A better question is: What's the actual percentage of Windows servers currently deployed that are running NT?
The article stated that 35% of companies were using NT, not that 35% of servers were NT or that those companies were using NT exclusively. And Who does the statistic consider a customer of Microsoft? Anybody with one server and a couple of CALs?
Without the backup information, this is really a useless statistic.
I have to say that Trigun is almost perfect for Cartoon Network: Most of it is light, with a character who's a really good guy, unlike many anime heroes who can be a bit morally ambiguous (for the unititiated: Vash doesn't believe in killing, and doesn't do so until the last few episodes).
There's not much that will need to get cut, rither. I can't think of any nudity that will need to be painted over. I'm pretty positive neither Meryl or Milly ever take a trip to the public baths. There's some drinking, but I'm pretty sure CN lets that slide.
They might even be able to air this one on primetime after a while.
Maybe it's because most entrepreneurs and small business owners in Senegal can't afford a computer, and would be better off renting small amounts of time as needed. According to the world bank Senegal's GNP per capita for 1996 was only $570. I doubt it's gotten much higher.
Sorry to break it to you, but it didn't bomb because it left theaters so quickly, it left theaters so quickly because it bombed. That's what happens to terminally low-grossing films. Remember how Spider Man was in theaters for 4 months or so? IUt was there because it did so well.
I know you're making a joke about how they'll make diet food as good as the real thing, but I've always found that texture has a lot to do with how much I like something. Ever had a grainy diet chocolate shake? What makes it disgusting is not that it's diet; the flavor is usually ok, it's the grainyness of the shake that makes it so bad for me. How about overprocessed ham? It's too smooth, it doesn't feel meaty. It even tastes just like regular ham, but it doesn't feel like it, and I don't enjoy it nearly as much.
According to the article, the alterations in perception are very temporary. So while you're drinking that black, bitter coffee it probably tastes great, but in about five minutes you'll get that aftertaste and want to brush your teeth.
True, but with oxidation and triple-wipe, anything recoverable will probably be gotten using an electron microscope. Maybe they sent some off to be melted, but there wasn't anything on-site that I know of that could melt a HD. There was some sensitive data where I worked, but nothing the Russians or anybody with the processing power and financial backing handy for the job were likely to want. Mostly just lies from the 50s and 60s they wanted to keep from the American public, probably.
Not quite that simple.
Yeah, that would work for newer desktops, but OnTrack, which sells disk wiping software (the only one I know, since that's what we use), also has a decent collection of basic SCSI drivers on their disk. You can load other drivers from a floppy if yours isn't there.
Incidentally, the US government requires triple-overwrite on any computers leaving government facilities, and for anything sensitive they wipe it, then drill holes through the disk. Yes, I know this for a fact. I have done IT work for a government site.
Booyah! Our Lady Peace actually made the top 100 singles this year. A couple of their songs from Gravity made it on the radio around here, and our only "rock" radio is a clearchannel station, so that's saying something. For somebody like me who's been following them since their first commercial album in '95, it's a happy day
Ok, back on topic. I find usually that the best way to find new bands is to go to websites of bands I like and find out what bands they listen to or are playing with. That's how I found two of my current favorite bands. (shameless plug time) Lucky Boy's Confusion -> Something Corporate -> New Found Glory.
WTF? How is this off-topic? Read the thread: Somebody mentioned Reboot, and I asked if there was any way to get it, since as far as I know it's not being shown on any US stations. It was on-topic for the thread, and I turned off my bonus point for the post, since I really only cared about the parent poster reading it.
I didn't know that there even were any new episodes of reboot. I've liked that show since I first saw it back in '96. I think it was on Fox. Anybody know how to get my hands on these newer editions? Amazon only has the first season.

What would this community network connect to? DSL lines cost a fortune for relatively low bandwidth, and are only available in limited areas.

Baladin Ale is pretty good too, but it's a heavier beer. Definitely not for the bud/heineken crowd.

My credit union always asks to see ID if I'm making a withdrawal or transfer. I don't know why yours doesn't.

You know, I don't think a giant penis has ever requested my credit card number.

An absolute classic!

Tantamount to terrorism? I'm sorry, but that's ridiculous. Think about that logically for just a second.
Terrorism = people dying and lots of property destruction (usually)
Copyright Infringement = People don't get all their royalties.
Seriously, the only person I've heard make a comment that inane recently was Valenti!
