I would guess that a router or firewall or any device, maybe even a cable modem would filter that. If you think you're accessing through a firewall, that's probably why.
It works on Win98/Internet Explorer 5 with a direct connection to the cable modem.
I was giving an example because the parent was 0, Offtopic at the time.
The example was that officials do worry about e-mail so they would either save it like he said or avoid typing it like I said. The point is that they would consider it important and that they would save e-mails that were sent.
I have a feeling it is maybe 60 days? eBay has a whole thing for resolutions. I think the best smoothest way of resolving things is to know where to contact (cases of using e-mail instead of the form, or something like that.) Also, PowerSellers have their own special e-mail address for fast resolutions.
So maybe it's not published, but I've read cases of PowerSellers happy that it was (60) days since they left a neg and they didn't get a retalitary feedback.
I found references to http://www.nic.mil/cgi-bin/whois on google. I was debating on trying/admin and etc instead, but didn't:)
Instead, I searched for
admin http://www.nic.mil
on Google, to verify the news. I ended up clicking on a web site that shows beginning web masters useful resources.
From there, I went to the site one level above, and from there clicked a link to view a document about standard run of the mill no big whoop procedures about webmastering (pretty useful if you want to be a contractor or write software and have it comply, I assume.)
BTW the security notice on this document is a link to army.mil's privacy policy, which says:

Anyway, on this document I was just describing, click the second link to the defenselink webmasters area.
There (which is also public according to their stated policy) you can click on "Domain Registration in the.mil domain" and see this http://www.nic.mil/ftp/mgt/bul-9605.txt

That's whining... But I see his point--the only reason right now is for video files. If you want to get your video from your camcorder, it's not going to go straight to CDRW or DVD, it's going to your HARD DRIVE storage. You are going to edit it, right? Since you probably want to have the best quality, a single file will take a lot of space. (No I don't do this video thing, but I did my own research. Many people do have video, and for computer editing there is no reason to cap a file size.)
Ok fine, I guess he kind of has a point in that question....
I've had Slashdot's IP in my signature for months. All I have to do is go to slashdot.org, log-in, view my post history, and select a post I've made. Then, I click on the IP link in the sig and there! I'm at slashdot!
A year ago or two ago, Intel said they were expecting 35 Ghz machines five years later (using chips burned on glass or microtechnology, I don't remember which.) That's a bit more optimistic than Moore's Law, but it's not a real law.
I'm sure even with High Quality components, the cost of the parts is a small fraction of $400.
However, what about the employees? What about the engineers, designers, leaders, managers? What about the people coordinating the soldering? What about the training dollars?
What about the machines and assembly lines that make these graphic cards? Are they free, too? The heat, the electricity? The chairs and computers?
Marketing, advertising, insurance for employees, and lawyers aren't free, either.
But even with the above restraints, another company could make a Radeon 9700 clone much cheaper, and I don't mean a Chinese sweat shop. I mean, say, a company in Canada making an identical clone manufacturing the 9700 for a cheaper cost with the same quality, selling it for half the price, and still make tons of money off it?
How could that (theoretically) be possible?
BECAUSE YOU'RE FORGETTING THAT ATI had to spend $$$$ in Research and Development, prototyping, training, and paying top dollar for engineers and designers. Many mistakes and failed efforts, many successful runs exploited for improvement.
A clone company would not have to pay these costs if they ripped off the design. GET IT? That's why new video cards cost so much, because the manufacturer (in this case ATI) had to RESEARCH THE THING it's making. That, and the fact that since the LATEST and the GREATEST video card was made for early adopters/hardcore gamers, they pay the biggest fee. Versions of the Card are priced cheaper for less demanding markets. Even though most of the technology is the same for the 9500, it is the early adopters that are the reason that ATI made 9700 the HIGHEST instead of just stopping at 9500, and that extra "R&D" cost makes sense.
And why is everybody upset about a company making a profit? Are you people crazy?
The company has to pay for their investment, then a lot of the money left over is put back into future R & D.
ATI designed, developed, and manufactures the best (consumer?) graphics card in the world. That takes lots of Research and Development $$.
Also, I am pretty sure what you described about misrepresenting equipment you broke is illegal.
File sharing has almost no R & D costs, (at least not in the millions and billions of USD).
A lot of success for independents has come from focusing on a single product and releasing it for FREE. If it lasted, it would go PAY later.
However, another way this works is through the developer making contacts with other developers through the process. A developer also gains a lot of valuable experience that helps him or her in future endeavors. Experienced developers teamed up together CAN compete with the big companies!
To see what I am talking about, read this:
ARC Attack, Retrieve, Capture. When it was client-side (meaning server passed on packets without verifying client data), it was fast and fun. It was independent for a while, then joined a couple of networks including TEN.NET (Total Entertainment Network).
TEN.NET became pogo.com, a web-only service so downloadable games had to go. ARC was made server-side (and slower) and licensed for WON.NET, Flipside, and SIERRA--companies that bought it each other out one way or the other.
Then, we have UniBall (uniball-central.com) created by a guy named "C:\". He made both the graphics and wrote the code. Oh, incidentally, he made all of the graphics for ARC. He hasn't worked on UB since 2000ish. The game is up through donations and admin contributions.
Finally, we have Pop Cap (popcap.com), makers of those java games you see on MSN's ZONE, YAHOO!, and everywhere else. You can even buy stand-alone versions for Windows and PalmOS.
What does this have to do with anything? You see, Pop Cap, in a way a monopoly on java games, wouldn't have existed without ARC and UniBall.
A game designer from Pogo.com (which licensed ARC when it was TEN.NET), an engineer from WON.NET (which licensed ARC), plus two other guys who had to do something with ARC when it was on WON.NET, and ARC's graphic designer and UB creator C:\, all make up Pop Cap Games.
You see, just make some free stuff to get noticed and to team up with others you meet along the way!
Also, enter your games into the Independent Games Festival. They award thousands of dollars to winners in different categories, now for the fifth year in a row.
You can see a bunch of entrants, representing many independent games, at their list of entries. http://www.indiegames.com/2003entrants.s html
FYI: Some would say that "If I was xxx" is correct in spoken English, but it is up to you. Not: Some would say that "If I was xxx" is correct in spoken English. Up to you.
The last sentence is a fragment, and does not define a subject as clearly as it should. It also has no verb, which it probably should have in written english (and the absence of which is partly the reason why "Up to you." is a fragment.)
--If you don't like the following post, please skip it asap-- We all know such a category would be the busiest, with hot dupes coming off the Repeat Mill at a steady rate.
It would be great because articles like this must be important enough to be on the front page annually, sometimes 2 or three dupes on the same page, sometimes one after another on the same page... Since the editors believe these articles are so important yet so elusive when they check for previous stories by searching slashdot (they DO check, right?), lets move the dupes to their own categories as they are discovered.
I am serious. Dupes are great, because I missed this LegWay article the first time around. But let's label the dupes, okay? Except, only allow dupes MISSED by editors when they post, to keep the category fun and to hold the editors responsible for when their name will appear in 10 articles in a row in such a category...
(But I do believe slashdot is just posting dupes under the alias timothy all the time because they want to appear higher on google through links to interesting stories that people would search for. It's not a news site, but a interesting stuff site.)
Maybe......they are first time cell phone owners, and don't realize they are loud and that the microphone can pickup softer sounds than that?
I called my answering machine inside a building recently to test the reception. That's all that is going on.
Just because you guys have owned and experienced cell phones for half a decade, doesn't mean that users who speak loud on phone have, too!
I'm sick of this complaining when I'm sure that long-time users know better than new users the rules of etiquette. All of you were just as obnoxious when you first got cell phones, too!

He has a really good point if mail programs put archives in one big zip-equivalent file, because these CAN get huge.

Microsoft is getting real competition in the OEM operating systems field FOR THE FIRST TIME.
I think zealots are loving it, but pretend that they are after open source and not after defusing Microsoft...
Regardless of how the market twists, you people aren't happy. This is the most progress on the x86, EVER, for Linux, for anti-Microsoft, for both.
