Bulldog do a connection up to 6mbs for inner London. I have their 2mbs connection and it's been far better than BT's shite. Aside from that, pay for a leased line from an ISP...
So wrong, the big spammers use zombie PC's to do the spam sending. Not only are they illegally accessing other peoples PCs, they are stealing the drive space and network bandwidth...and that's not counting the poor bastards who receive this rubbish.
That's what I'm doing and it works just fine. I'm running Debian testing, with a 2.6 kernel and KDE 3.2. Seems to be fairly up to date to me. The installer is the worst part of Debian, but once you're past that hurdle you have a system that's a dream to admin from there on (unlike my crummy Windows system (dual boot) which is due a re-install only six months after the last one since it now thrashes it's hard drives whenever I do any operations on it).
You're looking at the finger that points to the moon, and not the moon itself. These companies who are moving are the big industry ones...the most technologically respected companies. When the jump ship other companies follow. If Sun, Novell, IBM, Dell, and all the other ones we read about in the papers are all moving to Linux then smaller companies are going to start questioning why they haven't moved also. Where the shepherd goes, the sheep will follow.
I seem to recall reading they have(had) about 1500 people coding Win 2000 (NT?) and even more involved in the testing of it. With Linux, there are just a few hundred kernel developers, and they have managed to build an OS every bit as good and better than Windows. I guess the figures would become closer if you counted the Apache, KDE/GNOME teams, since Windows has this sort of functionality. If you counted all the people who work on a Linux distro or the software bundled in it then I'm pretty confident we way outnumber the MS crew now.
Not taxing to parse, simple, grepable, fast, lightweight, human readable. Even if you work for MS you should be able to write the code to parse this;->
I've also simplified my communications system by using two tins and a piece of string. If vendors want to call they have to buy their own tin and some string and tie it into the string-ter-net. They need to replace the string whenever local cats play with it or after six months, because it rots quickly but I sure as hell don't get spam anymore:-) Time to move in with the Amish communities.
Actually, digging a little further revealed that you could also get a Toyota Prius (Hybrid) that does 60 mpg in the city or a Honda Insight that does 60-66, that's three times the milage of your SUV.
Or you could sell that SUV and get a Volkswagen New beetle which will get you 38-48 mpg. Stats from the same site. That's almost twice the economy of your SUV, and it's a better city car to boot.
It's time to start shipping all that radioactive waste up to Moonbase Alpha while we still have a chance. Commander Koenig will know how to handle any issues they run into taking care of it up there;->
You're sick, and you need to seek psychological help. Jerking off while looking at images of children is just plain fucking sick.
As for your "no harm" argument, forget the research and ask some children who have been molested how they feel about it and they will usually say they were seriously fucked up for life. Many have sexual problems as adults that they struggle to overcome.
If you are looking at these images then you are supporting the child porn industry either directly or indirectly. Your actions will therefore contribute to the problem of children being sexually exploited for money. If people like you didn't look at this stuff then no-one would bother making it. You are the cause, the pornographers are the profiteers who get rich off your (and probably their) sickness.
Man, that's going to be a fairly unpopular plug-in. Let's see, imagine yourself as a paedophile who is looking to collect a nice pile of filthy images.
Doom III will allow the audio engine to run on a seperate processor. That may not be a huge gain in speed, but it is still some. Let's not forget, the OS will also be running at the same time as your game, and that could run mainly on the other processor. I'd expect maybe a 7% boost in performance from having dual proc even if the game wasn't optimised for it. Now, if they got some of the workload running asynchronously and in a seperate thread/process then we might see some real speed improvements e.g. graphics handling on one thread, calculating interactions, physics and explosions on another, sound on a third thread...etc.
I just quit cold on caffeine two weeks ago. The headaches were present, but not too bad since I have a balanced diet nowadays. What was disturbing was sitting at my keyboard unable to read the tech spec in front of me since my brain was all mussed up. It took about three days to get over the major symptoms and it's all been up from there:-)
I gave it up since I have been a 2lt a day Diet Coke fiend for 15 years, and usually supplement that with up to 10 cups of tea a day. Whew, that's addiction for you, it just sneaks up on you while you weren't looking. I can sleep again at night (no more insomnia), I am more relaxed and easy going, I can concentrate better than ever and my meditation practise (one of the reasons I ditched caffeine) is going much better.
I realise I'm probably one of the few people on SlashDot who would advise against caffeine, but I really do encourage you all to give life a go without, even if it's only for a week or two.
Hey, some gardening centres are selling products which bear your name. They come in various sizes and are known as a "Tool Shed". Get your lawyer out of his cryogenic freezer and get suing those IP stealing fucktards!
In other news, Googool family now suing every baby who utters the phrase goo goo. Parents who teach this phrase to their children without a Googool licence are being imprisioned for IP theft. They don't want money, they just want recognition.
Microsoft gives out free (lower case) software all of the time. Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Windows Media Player...
They sure do, but does anyone know of a way to make them take it all back? Man, those apps suck a dick. They are between them some of the least secure software ever to hit Windows.
Actually, there is a vampiric culture, and yes, they probably do need to get out of their parents basements. There is a sub-culture of people who believe themselves to be vampires and so drink other peoples blood. The blood is willingly given to them by donors, who may be friends or lovers. It is a form of erotica, and although not overly common, it still exists. No, they don't turn into bats and have magic powers, but they are undoubtably vampires.
Yeh, that child porn stuff just pop's up on my computer too every time I type in stuff like "naked children bound and beaten" into Google. It's beyond my control!
Honestly, how often do these guys think they can pull the virus/trojan/pop-up defense? The only time I have ever seen porno pop-ups is when surfing for warez (which I don't do any more thanks to Linux), visiting hacking sites (white hat, defending my servers), or going to porno sites. A quick check of his browser cache should also reveal what searched he typed into that search engine.
Perhaps people have forgotten how good Doom was to play when it first came out. That second level with the flickering flourescent likes flickering malevelently gaves me the willies. It was dark, engrossing and intense, all despite it's now comparitively crude visuals. I'm willing to bet that Doom III will be more of the same. It won't be a Half Life type of experience, but something darker and creepier. You can count me in:-0
The guys I'd like to see do it are Scorn. Their shit freaks me right out while stoned and lying back, what the hell would it do to my mind when stoned and playing Doom III...can't wait to find out (I can always switch off the music in Doom and play their stuff as MP3's).

It's the ASCII character for backspace :-) ^ is the control sign e.g. ^G rings the bell on your PC (now defunct).

All except for the IE cookies file which appears to be indestructable.
Heh, Limewire is a well known app for getting warez^H^H^H^H^Hbetas from. He was probably also getting a beta of some albums he liked too.
