It's not so much FCC, near as I can tell, more response to customers. This, despite the fact of double standards - they bleeped out the bleepables during the Friars' Club inductory roast of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. Go fig.
You don't even have to uninstall it. It's called Easy URPMI. Follow the directions, then do 'urpmi --auto-select' as root, and maybe once a week do 'urpmi.update -a' and then the auto select thing - if there's updates, it updates, if there aren't, it doesn't.
Not only a dupe, but it reads like somebody from Mandrake's marketing team hung it up here. That in mind, where's the steak knives I get if I ftp right now?
Rather than keeping the comp in the garage, perhaps it would be more optimal to keep it near the garage, and have a duct pulling cold air in from the garage? You get the benefits of cool air in winter, and you reduce the hazards of pests in the box.
Where I live, each jurisdiction has its own 911 dispatch center that's part of the police department - which is paid for via property taxes. The fire department has its own dispatch center - which is, again, paid for via property taxes.
While Orange County CA has a secondary.5% sales tax ("Measure M"), that's for transportation related expenses - public busses, roadways, rail, etc., ad nauseam. That goes into OCTA's pocket. But I digress.
And when it all boils down, the cities are the ones who most directly deal with 911 related issues, and it's in their best interests to make sure that the system is in tip top shape.
Therefore, to me it seems logical that the cities should be dealing with the 911 infrastructure, and therefore they should collect the taxes and put them to good use. An earlier user suggested $.50/mo/resident, and to be perfectly frank, I'd be more than happy to give my city $12/year (covers my wife and I) to help maintain the 911 system, because dammit, they need to be there.
For somebody who is simply selling you software to require that level of access to a server - ANY server - is illogical and a probable security hole.
Might I suggest using the wheel?
If he's less concerned about viruses, spyware, trojans, and in fact any malware, and more concerned about an encrypted cache document not being deleted (again, a bogus concern), he needs to be disposed of by way of being fired. But that's just my opinion.
Yes, I'm being facetious, but I'm also being a bit serious.
Here's another idea - find industrial sources of wasted CO2 and plant trees around them - or harvest the CO2. The Miller brewing company in Irwindale, CA comes to mind immediately - there's nothing surrounding the brewery but a quarry, interstates 605 and 210, and old US 66. And they brew shitloads of beer per month - that's a shitload of CO2.
Think about it. CSI is getting people into forensic sciences, which just might be a good thing. It follows the lead of shows such as Emergency! which got a lot of people going into fire/medical professions. So why not?
On the other hand, the uneducated fool need only know that my servers reside in a box that is approximately the size of a eighteen inch thick stack of index cards.
State election results would not be talled until 03:30 EST the day after election day. This way, the problem of time zones (where people in western states vote for whomever was reported as the winner in eastern states just because they want their vote to count) is otherwise eliminated.
Why 03:30? It's because at 03:30 EST, it's 20:30 the previous day in Guam. No election, but enough of a buffer. Note, it's at that time also 21:30 in HI and westernmost AK.
It's important to note that it's not "press cannot report on it until the next day" - that way, they can't scream "First Amendment!" The registrars in each area just don't report results until after 03:30.
Gotta kind of agree with you on that. It's more of an aggregator - people can look there, and at least make informed decisions as to whether they want to do business with certain parties.
It crowds out businesses sometimes, but it does have its positives.
We have the Better Business Bureau, as I pointed out in another post. They have no "real" clout, but they collect this information and effectively give reports on businesses. When people start seeing this kind of stuff in the business report, they'll start thinking twice about it.
The only problem I forsee is that we don't think about them until we have to file a report against the retailers.
OK, dumb question, I know where the problem is like anyone else. It's supposed to prevent the "Fry's Rental" problem, but as is demonstrated in the article, it's still a bit buggy.
Evidently, this is something that needs to have a human making a decision as well.

I'd mod you up if I had points. =/
I figure this, it wasn't really necessary for him to show genitalia, but the artwork is good.
*sigh*... You're not helping your case, dude.
this is food?!

Maybe this is different, but we have these things called smart streets which apparently also predict loads.

In Australia, general elections are not only held over several weeks, but voting is compulsory. See here, mate.

How about planting a whole lot of trees?

Nah, that one will just be void().

Speakeasy provides VoIP (granted, Level 3 VoIP rebranded) as an added service to their OneLink DSL.

This is why I put a post office box in my snail address. Once in a while I go and flush out the box.

Perhaps it's Aspergers, or somethign like it? Obviously, I am not a doctor.

On the contrary, we have this thing called the Better Business Bureau that is exactly for this purpose here in the US.
