When I saw OS2200 and VAX on this I knew you had to be an old timer. That's a mighty nice set of triple digit/. uid you have there.
I've produced nuke certified data sets for weapons on hardware build in the 60's where we had to use dip switches on the front to deposit bits into the registers to boot from tape. This was in the early 90s.
I have to say I used Turck MMCache on an 80 server farm serving up >4 million page loads (not hits) per day with not a single problem. This was back in the PHP4 days. Based on the load on the machines it could have easily been done with 5 but management wanted to spread the risk in an insanely large manner.
Full ACID compliance can be found when using the InnoDB table type. Just as with any DB, you will lose speed compared to MyISAM but you can do rollbacks as with any other real DB.
That being said, if you're going to lose speed, try Postgres. It's superior to MySQL in many ways and makes a much better trasitional path to Oracle/DB2/SQL Server.
I use Galeon for the most part and it uses the Gecko engine (renderer) from Mozilla. Now, I don't have to have mozilla on my box to do it. Why is this any different. There's a specific rendering engine in Windows that's called by other apps, NOT Internet Explorer.
It's entirely possible to rip out IE (hell, removing the icon and associations would at least simulate it) and still leave the rendering engine in place for the help system, add/remove programs, whatever.
Personally, I would love to see the Gecko engine become as ubiquitous in *nix as IE's renderer is in Windows.
Despite being TS level, we only reloaded our codes once a month. I always hated calling Ramstein saying "somethings fucked, lets yank out another strip and recode!" on what seemed like a weekly basis.
Part of me does not miss my old military days. However, seeing what exactly a source was in CNN's "sources said..." certainly did make the daily intel briefings interesting.
Well, compared to DSL, I get my bandwidth no matter what. I know how many DS3's my upstream has and who they're with. Also, I can resell/do whatever I please with it, no fucking around or bitching. Also, DS service is a known quantity. I've got ADSL here to the house and GTE doesn't know what the fucks wrong with it when it goes tits up. At least with DS type services the folks know what to do and how to fix it. (Not to mention, when there is a problem I can haul techs/engineers out of bed at 3am if I have to to get things fixed.)
As for the local loop, if I went frame relay (which is what xDSL is) I could go a bit cheaper, but I'm willing to pay the bucks to get PtP circuits.
A PC Clone will do the job as a server, but I'm willing to pay for a VA/Penguin/Dell/Compaq (and actually build my own (ASUS, IBM HD's, top notch cables, etc) box to keep things chugging well.
As it stands, I've got dual T1's and don't need the headaches of xDSL.
Having non protected graphics on a different domain is also a good way of tightening the page loading time by not forcing the sending of cookies across a slow link (26k anyone?).
I've used it before and it makes a noticable difference when cookies don't have to be sent for a lousy menu jpg/gif.
I run Win2k for 3 reasons. IE (I fucking hate Nutscrape), Eudora and Ultraedit. However, nothing on this box can't be replaced. All of the important shit stays on my servers and ALL of them run Linux as I won't trust my critical shit to M$ for any reason. (oh, and I refuse to pay for any M$ software/trash)
It's fairly clear to me that you don't understand that the tight asses you deride are the same ones that are upholding your 1st amendment rights!!
Even if you disagree with their politics, Thomas and Scalia are constitutional constructionists that read the 1st, 2nd, etc. amendments very tightly, namely that they are and should be absolute. Compare them to Kennedy and Stevens who will read the constitution any damn way they please to make it fit their political views.
The only way to maintain our freedom of speech is to maintain a strict constructionist point of view. Remember, we wouldn't have the damn federal goverment insinuated into every facet of our lives if it wasn't for the liberal reading of the interstate commerce clause.
As the other poster said, most disks are not encrypted. I programmed nukes back in my USAF days and once you entered the vault area of the bunker I worked in it was Top Secret open storage. TS materials typically sat on my desk without coverpages, etc. Same with our mainframes and tapes. This is not unusual at all in military/government offices. The interesting part is that all NATO classified materials were required to be locked in a safe and signed out when in use. Likewise, despite it not required by regs we used 2 man control procedures on our COMSEC crypto keys just as we did with the nuclear certified devices/information.
ObUselessInfo: 1 target listed on a piece of paper is classified Secret. 2 or more are TS.
Actually, when PHP is compiled as an Apache module it can/will do persistent connections. My MySQL server typically has 50-100 connections open despite not all being active.
From a pedantic POV he is correct. It is the individuals responsibility to protect himself and his family within their abode, NOT the governments. Fortunately here in Texas it is legal to use deadly force to protect our personal property in addition to our lives.
I also dissected both fetal pigs and cats. Usually, I had a roast beef or pork sandwitch will doing it. Now there's nothing like a good juicy 20oz beef filet cooked rare or medium rare. Damn good!
That ticket number has nothing to do with it. And I'll tell you exactly how to spoof NSI into switching some domains info.
This uses M$ Outlook Express (since Eudora won't let me do it however, I assume pine/elm/whatever would if it allows header edits).
Domain to hack: fredsbank.com Go to NSI and fill out the form (if you're incapable of doing it the old way (by hand)) and have it emailed to "hax0r@whatever.dom". Then in OE, set the "from" address to whatever the admin/tech contact "mail from" address is. This is the hack, set the reply to address as "hax0r@whatever.dom". Now send this baby off. Granted, the contact that you didn't use will be notified however, the changes will go through.
