if you still need to keep the service "Active", i'm assuming you have more than one machine behind the cable connection?
If you have more than one machine, surely you have some form of routing?
And if you have a router, then why don't you just block the port on the router, leave it open on the internal nodes, and lest i forget, not submit a googleable question to/. ?
that has to be the WORST write-up i've ever seen!! announcing Umbrello 1.1-stable was released and at the SAME TIME asking if there's somethingbetter out there? (implying Umbrello is crap)
actually, the slider idea isn't bad... if you look at new laptops coming out, they all have a "touch-scroller" built in next to the touchpad... i have an omnibook xt1500, and the scroller works better than i imagined!!
take this idea, build a similar touch-scroller into the side for vertical, and the bottom for less-used (i imagine) horzontal scrolling, and you have:
1) steal ka-ping's idea
2) ???
3) PROFIT!!
if one reads the article carefully, especially the part about 95% of hosts being infected, it does not *explicitly* mention that it was tested in the wild...
It could be for example, that 95% of machines, in a 50 PC network at RIAA offices were infected... or whatever: you get the idea.
so could it be possible this worm was developped, but not released?
"Mac users have hated Microsoft and Gates since before Linux or xbill even existed!:-)"
so that's why all your efforts are to having MS produce word, excel and IE for Mac...
gimme a break... you've been sucking Bill's tite since the dawn of windows...
When they ask for "years of experience", they just want to avoid the wannabes who just popped out of 6 months community college, and know only what was taught on the blackboard.
if you take this "requirement" for what it *really* is, it shouldn't bug you!
... unless you just got out of a community college 2-month speed-learning program?;-)
Comparing Minux to Linux is like comparing a wagon to a Lexus. Minux was never designed to be a production O/S. It was designed to teach for students taking a first course in operating systems design.
if it's "Minux" for you, surely you mean a "Lexis"?
i don't think that's the point...
Lara is *neither* half-naked, nor in thong underwear... she just has big boobs.
as the flat-chested geek who tries to go to the gym that i am, i think it's the equivalent of asking a guy to test StreetFighter or the likes, where ken just has huge pecs i'll never be able to match!!
prompts can be changed...
back in the days where a funny prompt on the professor's overhead was funny, his was somehow changed to "{student X}deserves an A+$" on his telnet(i think) acct.
good thing the prof laughed:-)
look at the link: it says "partner=GOOGLE"
i think NYT already knows about Google... it's a good idea for both: Google gets ppl interested in their news service as it provided access to ALL news stories, and the NYT gets a ton of ads served up via all the traffic Google is gonna generate...

popups. darned popups.
canadians, brits, 'tis all the same to you, innit?
come on!

is it even possible, as a geek, to "toughen your rep" ??

hmmm... maybe *HE* is trying to patent "undo".
>> It's Lara Croft, not Laura...
> It's CowboyNeal, not CowboyNeil...
where, oh where are your mod-points when you need them... and where's the Grammar Nazi when you need him?
you forget also "married" and "adopting soon" :-)
well SOMEONE had to comment on the story!!!

YOU sir, are NOT a geek.

title says it all?

just like an XboX can run Mandrake, this thing can play OGG, imho
it just doesn't *yet*

bottom line: it's a game, people.
considering i never wind my (analog) watch back or forward, why should i expect my computer to do any better?
TG's cars look like they're a 4-yr. old's toy, not an RC.

basically it'll mean we won't have to pay exaggerated prices for Macs to be able to use OS X!!

can anyone say win-win-win?
you're on crack.
i think that's all there is to say about that.
