Having gotten an extra account invite from google, and not knowing anyone who was interested, I decided to start a new account myself, and email mp3's to it. In the emails I include the artist, album, and lyrics. I group styles using the "label" feature.
"I gave up two times because I was not able to work thru a concept of non-volatile, non-destructive readout," says Michael. "I finally had a break thru when reviewing Einstein/Plank and Niels Bohr Atomic Theories."
An article so well written, with all that there proper spellin, and usin words like "thru", sure does inspire me to trust their unbelievable claims.
If you're prompted for a login / password, then it's not NTLM Integrated Authentication. NTLM Integration is Single Sign On - it passes your domain credentials to sites within your local zone that request authentication.
Hmmm.
That makes me wonder where the settings to configure it are. When I go to our company's sharepoint page with Firefox I get prompted for a login. When I go with IE and have the Integrated Authentication enabled (tools->Internet options->advanced->Enable Integrated Windows Authentication) I do not get prompted for a login.
Or perhaps they're referring to something slightly different then what I'm trying to do.
Is the NTLM Integrated Authentication available for Firefox, either as a plug-in or built in? I've done some searching, and it looks like it's only part of Mozilla...
What the hell is up with the notion that we should have to pay to email? Even the 0.1 cent idea... Converting the world of email over to a new system would cost the industry a huge amount, and then suddenly the chosen anonynymity I have in email is gone (some_person@yahoo.com for a mailing list can now be tracked to me)...
As the article says, spammers send spam because they make money at it. The solution presented is one we've heard many times... charge for email and make it less profitable.
Why not go after the source? Go after the companies that are advertising via spam? Track them down, follow the links they send, follow the trail, and jail them. Fine them. Make them pay.
If the spammers are making money off of spam, that money has to lead somewhere. Follow it to the source, and deal with the source.
The infrastructure for micropayments on email would be insane considering that (most?) every country in the world would have to back it, there would be a huge amount of tracking and auditing to be done, and a fairly seamless cutover for millions of companies would have to happen... Yeah, right.
The second case, the one in Elkhart Indiana, happened less then 5 miles from where I live. That case is the one that made the pinto famous, and is especially bizarre.
In 1978 U.S. Highway 33 between goshen and Elkhart was 3 lanes - one going each direction, and a center lane that was for passing, turning, or whoever wanted to be in it at the time. Head on collisions happened on occasion, and a project was being weighed by the state on whether or not to widen the road. It was being blocked in part by the railroad company that owned the tracks the road follows, and in part by local businessmen who owned the property on the other side.
So along comes this poor girl, who puts the gas cap on loosly after filling up her Pinto's tank. She then gets on to 33... she sees the cap fall off, and decides to stop and get it. On a road with no shoulder, and no where for following traffic to go except into the aforementioned death-trap of a center lane.
And along comes a van. A van driven by a a doped up moron hit the car. The van had a modified front bumper made from heavy wood. And the gas cap still had not been placed back on to the Pinto.
Boom, no more Pinto.
Fast forward to the state prosecutor filing against Ford, and the highway Department quietly expanding the road while the prosecutor had them distracted. (The road is now 5 lanes, two each direction, and a center lane that occasionally sports a head on collision. It also has rest stops every 150 feet, and signs to point them out).
Yes the car had a flaw, but the case that made it famous is suspicious at best. The blame could easily fall on the girl for stopping. It could fall on the doped up driver of the van. It could be blamed on the highway department. The prosecutor managed to blame it on Ford.
WebMD aquired a company called "Medical Manager" a while back. Medical Manager is an application that a lot of Physician Practices use to do scheduling and billing. When I say a lot, I mean like 75% of them, last I checked. Anyway, Medical Manager is usually sold on SCO boxes, as that's what it was originally developed on. The other choices are AIX, HPUX, and NT (though I've never heard of someone running it on NT) but most physician practices don't go that route based on cost alone.
So yes, lots of people still use SCO... in fact, odds are your family doctor does.
Oh, couple things I shoulda mentioned... the lens that comes with it is decent, but you will probably quickly want at least one more if you're much of a photographer at all.
Buy a big compact flash card. 256mb or 512mb (I got the 512). It sucks to run out of space mid-shoot.
We also picked up an HP photo printer that accepts CF, can print the pictures directly after reviewing them on an LCD screen. Makes it all very convenient, and I don't have to worry about drivers, etc for the printer.
I just bought a Digital Rebel a week ago. Got it as a birthday gift for my wife, who's a semi-pro photographer (In her own mind, anyway).
Her sister owns a Canon Rebel 35mm camera, and my wife has been a die-hard film person. In the last week, she hasn't touched our 35mm camera.
The digital rebel can use all the lenses, filters, tripod, flash, etc from her 35mm, takes amazing pictures, and is SLR. (she wouldn't touch a non-slr camera)
The auto-focus is great, the shutter speed is better then any other digital camera we've played with (and very adjustable). Manual focusing gives her all the control she'd normally have.
It snaps shots a little slow, about 4 in the first two seconds, then one a second after that, but for a digital at 6.3mp that's not too shabby.
In my opinion, this is *THE* digital camera to buy right now... and at the rate I'm going at, I'll need to buy a second one since my wife won't let me have time with ours.
So who do we file a class action suit against when a flaw like this is turned in to a worm?
I'm no Microsoft fan, but neither am I of the belief that all Open Source software (or Mac software, or *nix software) is perfect. Pull off your blinders, and realize that the solution rests not just in the hands of some major corporation, but also in the hands of anyone who chooses to place their computer on the 'net.
tax could be made progressive by exempting, say, those who sent fewer than 5,000 letters a year.
Ok, so bigger_penis_now@hotmail.com sends 4999 emails. bigger_peenis_now@hotmail.com sends 4999 emails. get_big_penis_now@spammer.com sends 4999 emails.
On the other hand, valid list-serves get billed because they need a consistent address to do their business. Spammers are (obviously) well known for forging the headers on their emails, the from info, etc. So who do you bill? how do you track it down? who are you paying to track it down?
IBM is building some of the same tech into their newer pSeries boxes. Still definitely not in the price range of your average slashdotter, but well within the price range of your mid-size company.
For example the pSeries 670 can deallocate processors, ram, cache, and PCI bus slots on the fly.
Posting this kind of late, but it needs to be said.
I work at a hospital, on the networking side of things. It's a fairly large hospital, and we've got some pretty amazing tech here that runs this place. But BY LAW we have downtime procedures. ALL STAFF MUST KNOW THEM. We have practice sessions monthly in which staff uses downtime procedures (pen and paper) to insure that if our network were to be completely lost, we could still help patients. It's the friggin law. Whoever fucked up and hadn't looked at downtime procedures in 6 years should be fired. That's just bullshit.
I don't know how that hospital was able to pass inspections.
I'd never thought of using sudo like that - I've always used it for doling out tasks to those who are not "priveledged" enough to have the root password, but for myself have always used "su".
Perhaps I should rethink my way of doing things and switch to using sudo for my own account as well. Are there any gotcha's or other reasons why using sudo in this fashion is not recommended in FreeBSD, linux, or AIX?
I work at a Hospital, and I read these small / silent PC reviews with interest. We have need of a quiet PC to put in the surgery rooms here - but there are a couple of stiff requirements I have yet to see in a single PC...
First, it has to support dual monitors, for the Xray imaging app that we use.
It has to be able to run Windows, or be able to get to a citrix terminal server.
It has to support wheel mice within the ICA connections
A direct link to a program that will crash a windows box.
A story about how to illegally make your own cisco box using warez.
Links inside a story that have PORN POP UP ADDS.
The days of my reading slashdot while at work are numbered. Are you intentionally trying to drive away your reader base? Is news just that slow?
Admitted, slashdot is not the greatest news source out there, but occasionally you can find a gem or two amongst the articles... but with crap like this, it's not worth it.
And MS02-045 is part of the "critical updates" so any machine that is up to date with Microsoft's security patches is already protected against this fix. I tested it out here at the office against several machines, patched and unpatched.
That one example was a label that has several artists on it, effectively making it not just several examples, but one damned good one. Follow the link.

You can find a decent review of it here.
