I could write you a program that pops up a prompt every 30 seconds or so. This propmt will say "Flang the Zip-Zop-zoodle?". If you click "OK", nothing will happen. If you click "Cancel" it will kill a randomly selected process (which could be malware after all).
Do you have a download link? Is it on Sourceforge yet?
Well, it wasn't exactly a "parallel-universe" as much as this chick from the future who took back her gun parts before this scientist dude put them back together and accidently killed himself, thereby sending shockwaves into the future, and creating the destruction of all mankind. Then there were lots of cool explosions around the time gate just before the brains in a bottle blew up. It's quite simply, really.
I just bought a brand new Dell and I can't believe the garbage that is installed. It took me an hour just to uninstall and delete the garbage software I did not want!
The artists' conception images of this remind me greatly of the "Excalibrate" wrist computer worn by the hero in the otherwise utterly forgettable The Dungeonmaster (more here). If this one can zap the bad guys and rescue the girl, we're all set.
Let's say there's a WiFi AP with basic WEP at a bookstore near me, and let's say I want to crack it. Does one (or more) of these LiveCD distros include the necessary tools?
The people who write the HTML standard can make whatever rules they want. It doesn't matter. The browser that controls the namespace controls the standard.... 89% market penetration by Internet Explorer makes it, by definition, the standard. Crackpots can write as many "Acid2" tests as they want. If it doesn't render in IE, the fact may be that IE doesn't follow the documents you follow, but you're in the wrong.
You work for Disney, don't you? This is the exact--almost word-for-word--attitude I've heard from their Web design people.
Ask anyone in marketing
Ahh, it all makes sense now. Go back to the party, we have work to do here.
I am not sure what senior managment means in your organisation but if what you call "senior managment" can't get the IT department to change, then the organisation has bigger problems. What I suspect is that senior management actually could get the IT department to change but thinks it is best to do what the IT department says and tell you that they can't change anything.
If you think "Senior Management" can do anything other than plan reorganizations and expand their empires, you need to read Company. Sure, it says it's fiction, but we all know it's real.
The e-mail delivery problem is there, if you choose to call it a problem. Mail sent to JoeSixpack will arrive at Joe.Sixpack, provided that those two GAs are not 2004-era accounts registered to different people.
I own my.name@gmail.com, and have since about day 15 of gmail's existence. I did not register myname@gmail. That was taken shortly thereafter by someone else who shares my name.
I get his mail all the damn time. It's not a myth, it's not been disproved, it is absolutely a very real problem.
There is no collision with other accounts since only one account (stripped of periods) is allowed to exist.
Then please explain why I constantly get mail to my my.name@gmail.com account which was sent to myname@gmail.com... which is owned by someone else who shares my name? It is absolutely a problem.
Oh, yeah,.edu is super-strict alright. That's why we have omsi.edu, when the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry isn't a 4-year accredited university (they really should have omsi.museum instead).
Note that the current eligibility requirements only apply to new applicants. Several non-qualifying institutions retain their.edu domains obtained before the current rules came into force (for example, Detroit Country Day School and the Bush School are kindergarten-through-12th-grade institutions, but have the domains dcds.edu and bush.edu).
Desqview & QEMM... this stuff is not going away any time soon
Aw man, you bring tears to my eyes. I did tech support for Quarterdeck back in '95 -- mostly QEMM with a bit of CleanSweep in there for (painful) variety -- and I dearly remember the pain of getting QEMM and Win95 to live together peacefully.
Lisandro: Norton utilities (and Norton Commander) used to be great in the DOS days. You know, back when Peter Norton did more than posing for the cardboard box.
AC: I am only mad cause I miss Norton Disk Doctor and the Hex editor. Those where there greatest hacking tools I ever had.
You guys aren't kidding. I had the Norton Utilities 1.0, for the IBM PC before it had a hard disk, and several later versions up until Symantec bought Norton and started putting out crap. I actually found a bug in the first Symantec-owned version of NU, tried to report it, and was treated with quite the lovely condecension.
DiskEdit, NDD, NDOS, there was nothing you couldn't do with the old Norton. Is he even still around and doing anything? Or just retired?
Slashdot Mirror
Great, great book. Awful, awful movie.
And we can just imagine what happens then...
Cypher: All I see now is blonde, brunette, redhead.
After very careful consideration, sir, I've come to the conclusion that your new defense system sucks.
So how did Stranger force Billy into The Van, then?

What's that watermelon doing there?
I'll tell you later.
