I've had a 4GB Seagate drive on my 24/7 routing machine for five years now and I'm not sure I'll be able to find a new drive this small so that the router's old motherboard could handle it.
You could probably just buy a 60G IBM and set the jumpers a certain way.
So long as you link it correctly, you do not need to release the source code to your application: no matter how confusing the licencing on the MySQL website is...
Personally, I'd prefer to avoid the issue entirely and use something that is more explicit about not claiming my code. After all, who's to say that the MySQL guys interpret their license the same way you do?
The difference of course, is that you can cause the motor to lean burn with ethier modification, but the ECU will get you into trouble much faster than carb jets.
To extend the analogy (somehow), modern cars will tell you when you're getting lean burn (by way of the knock sensor), you just need the right tools to find out.
I won't do internal engine work myself
I'm a Geek, and I will. Of course, I have the manual, so that helps.
A good analogy would be the keyrings used to open car doors remotely; they would be incredibly susceptible to sniffing if they didn't use a different code each time.
It's too bad that they don't, although it's probably a bit better than the door locks - there are typically only 20 or 30 keys for a given car model/model year.
If you want to tread that road, however, I'm a white man in South Texas. "Minority" enough for you? =D
Okay, let's walk that road. Ever been pulled over because you were in a rich neighborhood? How about being stopped for driving a nice car? Disproportionate representation in prison?
Didn't think so. Minority status these days is about who holds the whip and who gets beaten.
Hey, the same applies for DSL. SBC DSL - you can max it out all day long and they don't complain either. And with the new packages out, the speeds are the same as cable at around the same price ($45 for 3.0 mbit, and arguably 6.0 mbit if you listen to the techs on dslreports).
I doubt that. $60/mo doesn't even cover bandwidth, and just forget about an SLA (important if you're running any sort of business). Try $600-800 per month.
until someone makes it apparent that they intend to march millions of oppressed minorities into a gas chamber, you really oughta ease off on the comparisons...
We're more enlightened these days - instead of gassing minorities, we just lock them up.
Erm, a T1 is only 1.544mbps. That's hardly huge, dedicated bandwidth.
Um, that's exactly what it is - you can get a T1 and max it out all day long. Your provider won't complain or threaten to cut you off - they'll just send you a bill.
. In the first five years you've paid 60*1185 = $71,145, but oh so sad for you, $54,343 of that was in interest.
You're neglecting the $13,585.75 you get from uncle sam for deducting that interest, bringing the net interest paid to $40,757.25. Now consider that your house appreciated by 30% over 5 years - that's $60,000 - so you've got about $90k in your house. Pretty nice, huh?
None of this is even taking into accound that tape produces a full sound spectrum. Even awesome pro-tools systems that record at 192k do not reach that goal...
No they don't - tapes have a limited response range, as do the mikes that feed them. Also, the awesome pro-tools that I've seen record 64 bit samples at 44+ KHz.
Funny, I heard that airships were making a comeback for freight. There's something elegant about strapping your 10KT hunk of equipment to a balloon and flying it there for $50.
I think they [transparencies] could be blown up to wall-sized with little loss of clarity. I don't think that would be possible even with the most expensive digital camera going.
Depends on the source - an 11MP digital with decent optics can match a 35mm film camera.
We can now remaster analog tapes from the 50s with no problem. Try to get the original tracks for a linkin park session in 50 or 60 years..good luck.
Don't be so sure - I recall reading up on a project where they digitized some original Hendrix recordings. They only got one shot at it, as the tape went in the reader and a fine cloud of magnetic material came out the other side. Digital rocks - you can keep a recording on disk for an indefinite period, as your raid array will die after 10 years, but you can replace it for pennies on the dollar and maintain all the data besides - the message is now separate from the medium.
I think there should be a new word for this type of person - a person who finds it impossible to imagine those in authority acting in a bad way even that is a reasonable logical conclusion based on the facts. Or perhaps there is already a word for this type of person and I don't know it. Any ideas anyone?
There is clearly no ethical difference between allowing a communist government to steal something that in turn damages them financially and detonating yourself because you don't think the people you are killing worship the right god.
Geez, get off the pipe. We were in a war with the communists for control of the world. Of course people will die. At any rate, the point wasn't so much the detonation as destroying their faith in their quality control.
Personally, I wouldn't vote for Jesus Christ no matter what party he ran under, precisely because his political ideals DO match the big-spending catch-a-handout message (which most typically means Democrats).
That's why the republicans over the past 20 years have spent $5T or so that we don't have, and the democrat balanced the budget, right?
As someone once said, ALL freedom ultimately derives from economic surplus. If you can't afford to do anything, it doesn't realworld-matter if you have the right to do it, because you can't exercise that right anyway. Being so poor that you have nothing left to lose is NOT "freedom".
True on a large scale, but at an individual level, freedom and 'nothing left to lose' are nearly the same. As for today, I'll vote for enyone before Bush, because he's a madman.
We used to get police radio transmissions on them while they were OFF. Explain THAT.
Your cheapo speakers were sensitive to police transmissions, and they transmissions induced a current in said speakers. It happens when you live near a transmission tower, too.
The rest of the world is only just now starting to bounce back thanks to globalisation, despite the best efforts of wealthy countries to keep protectionism alive in all industries except the ones they do well.
Thanks for the history lesson. Now it's time for you to realize that the people of the USA have an interest in maintaining an edge over everybody else, whether you think it's fair or not. Sending industry after industry overseas is not the way to do it. You preach against entitlement while turning a blind eye to the very real problem that, once we've hollowed ourselves in the name of profits, we'll have nothing left. At the present course, our position will reverse with india in 50 years to a century.

I believe that's one of Limbaugh's things, Liberalism (including environmentalism) always causes the opposite of its intended objective.
Kinda like electing Bush (a Republican), only to have him run up the deficit and grow the size of the government?

Your car may not directly help you exercise your civic rights, but your computer can be used for that.
More to the point, your car runs on public roads and can kill people. Your computer runs on private networks and can't harm anyone directly.
Quite an effective and fair punishment - you are abusing a priviledge so that priviledge gets revoked.
No, I'm buying a service, not using a privelege. Or should the state be able to confiscate your car if its registration expires?

Yeahbut that's all after the machine has been compromised, and the machine possibly used to sniff for username/passwords etc on the LAN.
The use Kerberos - good luck sniffing that.

If as you claim he is a fascist then republicans are fascist too because they love him and worship him.
Well, that was kind of the point, wasn't it?

I thought it was void.
Okay, what was the fifth?
Mila Jovovich. Duh.
