How about ACME do not send promotional email until they have solved this?
I never said "promotional email"...try bending your mind around something like the "confirm your email" your favorite nerd sites (Slashdot included) send...
Here's one very basic, very common problem anti-spam legislation doesn't solve.
1) Someone registers your email at ACME's web site. 2) ACME wants to know if you are legit or not, so they send you a "please click on this link if you really requested this" email. 3) You didn't request email from ACME, but now you have an "are you you?" email from ACME.
Is the "please click on this link" email spam?
If so, what should ACME do to verify you are you instead?
If not, what's to stop a spammer from sending their advert along with the "click to confirm" email? (I know, they already do.)
Sure, you fixed the cars, but tagging all the deer that pop put into traffic will be a bitch. You know crap like this would only fly in places where the only scenery is either pavement or desert.
Hmmm...I didn't see that part, just another Crypto 101 thing with a pitch for some harware gizmo at the end. Is there another article that should be linked in?
Is there a way to "check" individual workstations?
On my workstations with auto-update, I'd prefer my first notification that something might be a problem in the field to not be an end user with a mystery dialog box on their screen.
Anyone know how this might work with SUS?
Is it safe to call "RealAudio" a fad yet?

Most people usually don't figure the cost of keeping an extra aircraft carrier-centered battle group around to guard Mideast shipping lanes and a couple of ill-planned invasions here and there into "oil subsidies", but if they did, I'd bet you find that the cash devoted to ethanol isn't that much at all.
As long as a third of our budget is military and a chief focus of the military is to keep the oil flowing, it makes sense to pursue other energy options.
There's a company in Wisconsin called Standard Networks (http://www.standardnetworks.com/) that makes a neat little web-based message system that looks like email to end users, but really stores each message in an AES-encrypted file.
Cache poisoning isn't to be taken lightly. Imagine someone offering username/password fields for a banking application. Hack that cache and you have an easy way to phish for online banking credentials (with your own custom form), minus the need to spam anyone.

"here we have a 20 year old protocol, a part of the Internet infrastructure that hasn't been touched in 10 years and we were all sure was right, and now is cast in doubt."
Dell sells it for more that they got it. Unless you're GM, that's the way you do it.
If you can't built your own computer better and cheaper than Dell, it's time to turn in your geek badge.
If you want to see pricey, remove Mr. Dell's package from your throat and head over to their SAN storage, or price out a dual-proc rack-mounted server, or...nevermind. You two look like you're enjoying your private moment.
Ah shit, he's right.
[Q] From Gustavo Bruckner: "What is the derivation of in like Flynn?"
[A] Reference books almost universally assert that this set phrase, an American expression meaning to be successful emphatically or quickly, especially in regard to sexual seduction, refers to the Australian-born actor Errol Flynn. His drinking, drug-taking and sexual exploits were renowned, even for Hollywood, but the phrase is said to have been coined following his acquittal in February 1943 for the statutory rape of a teenage girl. This seems to be supported by the date of the first example recorded, in American Speech in December 1946, which cited a 1945 use in the sense of something being done easily.
Dell and Apple make their money selling pricey hardware, not the OS. (The last time Apple tried fooling around with clones, Umax took it in the shorts. )
So, it's not surprising Dell would offer to sell hardware. It would be surprising to see Apple take the offer.
P.S. The "text in image" thing still sucks donkey balls. (Maybe that should be my sig...)
"Unfortunately, with the recent selection of Boeing/Northrop-Grumman and Lockheed-Martin as the two competing teams for the contract to build the Shuttle's successor, t/Space's future path is somewhat uncertain.""
All t/Space needs is to get a couple dozen congressmen in its pocket and boom!...in like Flint.
Let's face it...the manned space program is a slush fund for well-connected defense contractors.
P.S. Did I mention the "word in image" thing still sucks donkey balls?
So...what the fuck? Is it going to become SlashDot policy that they link to the press release day 1 and then link to the first half-ass web page that talks about the item on the press release day 2?
Lame ass.
