My website is hosted with linuxvps.org. Gentoo or Debian based vservers. They don't use UML or Xen - they use some paravirtualisation stuff, so you don't have access to kernel functions, and hence no iptables, but it is faster than UML or Xen. And there's always tcpd for restricting access to services via IP.
There'd always have to be a "get-me-out-of-this" button for the users. And there could be valves to ensure that packets only went the same direction, so there'd be two tubes, one each way.
We need an underground transport system, that works like IP packets.
You sit in a little metal pod in your house, and are accelerated into the main "backbone". Bluetooth/RFID/something that broadcasts your final destination enables the "routers" to switch your travel onto the routes that get you to where you're going.
Yep. I was impressed while I uninstalled X while using it, and emerged xorg. I couldn't open new things, but I guessed that, and opened all the stuff I'd need while it worked.
My Window colleagues didn't see what was impressive. "But I've uninstalled the thing I'm using right now"...
I've been banging on about how great Linux is for years. A co worker installs Ubuntu, and Beryl, and immediately, people are interested in Linux because of the wobbly windows, and spinning cube.
People just want eye-candy. So if the best way to get people to use Linux is to make the desktop look excellent, then long live KDE, and Beryl. (I don't like Gnome though. Blech.)
I fail to see why it seems to hard to detect these things. When an ISP sees a machine go from sending out 4 or 5 emails a day to spitting out thousands of emails every hour, it should be obvious there's a problem.
True. I played a good few hours of Colin McRae rally, and then went out for a drive in my Scooby. I suddenly realised that I was driving as I had been, in front of my PC with steering-wheel and pedals, except it was on the quiet evening roads of $country. Quite scary really, although I was ultra-tuned, and alert.
Drive a diesel car now. With no turbo. And a bit of a misfire.
The only things that need be passed along are current GPS location ( deliberately imprecise by about 20ft ), current velocity ( deliberately imprecise by about 10mph ), last 5 secs acceleration on all 3 axes and a time stamp.
That's exactly what I do. Except I round off the GPS lon/lat to a certain amount of decimal points - that basically makes it inaccurate enough not to incriminate me - and I don't bother with a timestamp - saves on bytes - I just use the time at the server when it's received.
But with the Firehose, Slashdot will now start using the "wisdom" of crowds to produce the same pap that Digg does.
Shall we all migrate to Technocrat, anyone? It has decent stories.
True, but your original post made it sounds like people would need to buy new network cards, or ask their bosses for money to buy a whole load of new routers.

Anyone got any torrents?

Xatchoo krasiviya Sibirskiya dyevushka. Is that right?
A common complaint about Linux is the amount of time the operating system takes to start.
No it isn't. Of all the things I've heard people complaining about Linux about, the start up time isn't one of them.
A benevolent dictator, if you will?

I can claim that if you speak to any words containing vowels to me that you're entering into a contract. It doesn't make it the slightest bit so.

Look up Java J2ME JSR 179 - it's the location API that's supported on modern phones.

Orange in the UK have a feature called "Where's my nearest", which does exactly that. It's been running for years now.
If my married what?

Is your sig from my site? :)
Actually, NAT in its purest implementation, without a stateful firewall at all, wouldn't offer any security, because it would only serve one host,
1 public IP to 1 private IP? Not much use, really then.
It wont run on your current network hardware
Lies. you wont get the budget approved to upgrade
It is probably just a software image upgrade on a router.
See my sig.
Aaah. Security through obscurity.
