I'm not taking any chance with my home, I'm stealing a couple of thousand yards of 200MPH tape off a NASCAR truck, 4 out 5 dentists agree that it resists VX and Mustard gas better.
Seriously, asuming Al-Queda did launch a major attack on my town of 2000 souls in the middle of nowhere, how many people would seal their windows but forget to enclose the AC air intakes, range hood, fireplace, and/or dryer vent, that's right 99% would screw up. Do you really trust your building super to attend to your apartment complex when his own house and family are in danger? Do you really trust 6 mil plastic made by someone making minimum wage (or less, depending on country of manufacture) to really be as fine grained as needed to prevent a VX gas exposure. Unless you retreat to your nearest positive air pressure, known clean air, nuke/tornado shelter, you aren't going to survive a bio/chem attack without immediate medical attention.
That being said, if they attack, I'm going to the company data center bunker, it should be survivable, and with the addition of a firearm, defendable. Take that Sarah Brady!
So when will java have its "It's Y2K, we need to thaw the dinosaurs out of their cryo tanks to fix their old, mission critical, code?" I or my decendants could turn a nasty proffit in the future fixing this fossilized code. Is java vulnerable to the (2^32)-1 second unix epoch or will it come later on?
What httpd are you running, apache, it is a full featured httpd, THTTPd or perhaps the tux server will have higher performance than apache. Also there are plenty of apache tuning guides out there to increase speeds/no connections/load
Try the democrat goons, look up the entertainment industry on open secrets, they gave 84% of their donations to democrats in the last election cycle, chew on that before the next election.
I suppose that someone didn't want there precious liberal protectors insulted, flamebait my ass. If you have information to refute my argument, please respond

I can't figure out whats so magic about 25, 20-21 drops the risk to 0.05 acording to the data in the link above. Most of us are free of college/military by 23-24, so why aren't we considered less of a risk than a 16YO. I can understand chrging a 16-17YO ungodly rates, but why punish people who are young and unmarried, but demonstrated good drivers.
What burns me up is that I'm 23 and have had a license since the day I turned 16. I don't drive expensive cars, and have no violations, not even a speeding warning and I'm still being charged more (Adjusted for inflation) than when I started driving, there was a point when I was driving a car valued under my 6 month insurance premium, it drove me insane. If the state dropped the insurance requirement altogether, the providers would have to compete on price. I think the insurance carriers should charge you based on your record, not some statistical abberation of a 17YO wrecking daddy's BMW 3 times a year.
Why bother with genetic checks, women take time off to have children and men don't live as long, so the ideal worker is male since he wont disappear for 1-3 months to have a child every now and then and he will not drain the old pension by living longer. However your idea of health screenings interests me. I would rather not be responsible for the health insurance of AIDS patients, child bearing women, and old people. Just like I wish I could leave the DWI/DUI crowd and 16YO's from my insurance carrier. Oh well, at least its not taxes going down the drain.
I personally have a problem with illegal immigration, some of the people are hard-working people doing the jobs that American's refuse to do, but some of them cross the border to use our medicine, fill our jails, and ship illegal drugs in (I'm not talking pot here folks, Coke|Heroin doesn't all come in by the container ship load), while not paying a dime in taxes. I've worked with Bolivians, Mexicans, and Hondurans farming tobacco with my family (all legal migrant workers) and they were all go all the time, because the $8-12/hour they make here for 3 months lets them live like kings for the remaining 9 back home, while if they stayed the would make the equivalent of $1.25/day, you can't blame them. If you want in legally, thats all well and good, but do not abuse the system, if you do your ass needs to be deported back to the shithole you came from.
Trucking down to bestbuy and buying the cheapest d-link home network kit that comes with a couple of NICs and a 4 port router isn't too hard. I tested one of my computer illiterate buddies on one once and he did okay, he was afraid of breaking the nic off in the PCI slot though. Those nifty little USB->RJ45 adapters are great for the non-tech crowd and unless transfering your entire hard disk to another machine on the LAN will not saturate the link (11 Mb/s).
What college do you go to where primary registration doesn't occur during the preceeding semester. At UK, we registered in November for spring classes, April for summer and fall session. If you need an exemption, go check in with your INS officer, most of these people had slipped under the radar.
Makes sense, think of mshtml.dll as Mozilla's Gecko, with non-published interfaces. res:// is an internal handler for a windows resource, I'm pretty sure the Windows Me/2000+ help files are res://help.dll links as well.
I watched and waited for HURD [gnu.org] forever and just presumed that Emacs would get boot code. Remember a few years ago when Sun threatened to unleash a native java bytecode processor, why not an e-lisp one. I bet it would make an interesting masters thesis in Computer Enginering to layout an E-Lisp native proc, complete. Emacs is self hosting right? So it already has a compiler suite/dev environ, as well as most of the relevant network tools (Web Browser, Mail Client, FTP, Telnet). Would make for an interesting project though. Keep in mind I am a biologist by training and a sysadmin by trade so I may be talking out of my ass here but could it work?
The poster said that he had problems with running 2 PCI sound cards, I'm not a Kernel/hardware hacker so I have no clue as to if this is actually a problem, but my solution is a assured method of getting a second stream of audio into the PC, if you have a cleaner solution, please speak up.
A PCI/onboard sound card and a TV tuner card could do the trick, just feed the 2nd audio stream into a VCR and the output to the coax on the back of the TV card, split the L/R channels and you are golden.
World famous perl hacker Lincoln Stein has apache::mp3 availabile for using apache as your mp3/ogg stream server. Apache is a daemon so now more reboot worries. Now you have to figure out how to feed two audio streams to their respective filehandle(s). Are you wanting two seperate streams or the two channels overlaid into a single stream, if it is the second option a simple 2-1 (Y) cable should be sufficent.
Exactly, about:Foo doesn't create the same response so someone at M$FT is having a little fun with our favorite browser. Perhaps I'll submit a Moz patch that maps about:IE to a real BSOD or a page decrying IE's problems.
Grab it using Kazza lite, its a 14meg QT movie, funny as hell, considering one of my college roommates is "Terry Tate", a skinny white kid. The pain train is a coming Woot! Woot!
Dreamweaver --tight code, when did that happen? I just can not use a wysiwyg editor anymore, thank Raggett for HTML-tidy, for cleaning other peoples code up.
True, but how many pre-press ops are using consumer grade sony monitors for that kind of work. Our setup at Donneleys 3 years ago were monster 21" Princetons and Samsungs, but of course we are a dying breed, dead tree is going the way of the dodo...since 1953.

Back to the drawing board on providing wealth for my decendants then...

Does it use duct tape? You've got to have some duct tape on it somewhere to qualify for the redneck home interior awards.

I believe Mark Twain said it was the worlds greatest waste of pasture land, I'm inclined to agree.

And I suppose that Janet Reno wasn't, why not ask Elian about DOJ goons kicking down the door to send you back to a communist shithole.

The rest aren't US citizens, they are here on student or work visa's, if you aren't working/studying your ass should be deported.
