Do the big advertising/media companies not realise that todays youngsters are learning to filter out advertisments?
It doesn't matter what format the ads are in, as soon as my mind realises its an ad it gets censored out from my conciousness. I suspect many other people have learned to react in a similar fashion. It's like anything we get exposed to on such a constant basis; as soon as we realize its presence our mind edits it out again. There's only room for so many things in our mind's bandwidth, and ads are easily dropped out as worthless and not useful. .sig not attached.
Would it be possible to break up the encrypted passwd file and hide it in slack space? Perhaps have an ersatz passwd with useless passwds, and hide the real one in several places around the disk.
Or am I just being really REALLY paranoid??
With so many people and organisations that control parts of the Internet, it will be rather difficult to get them all to agree to this proposed change. Granted, ICANN may be trying to bring some semblance of organisation to the hodge-podge of hacks and kludges the Internet has become, but by trying to "control" a large part of it like this will only alienate many people.
The only way to reorganise the internet is to EMPulse the entire world and rebuild it from scratch. Not a favoured solution...
Malaria Virus?
I think not, malaria is caused by an organism more resembling an amoeba.
I cannot be sure, but I think it's called a plasmodium.
This particular organism lives in your bloodstream, and lunches on your red blood cells.

For those of you without a sense of humour, it is sarcasm for entertainments sake.
