Peak time in Australia would co-incide with "work time" in parts of the USA etc. If "work time" becomes as bandwidth intensive as peak time, then at Australian peak time, bandwidth would double (or at least greatly increase) on a global scale.
"I'm behind a NAT, I use P2P fine" I hear you say.
Well that involves either having a UNP router which lets you open up a port, in which case thats not NAT (as you still require owndership of a WAN IP, and the transfer itself is not NAT'd). Or it involves one of the people in the transfer not being behind a NAT, again not NAT. Or it involves bloody slow transfers through a 3rd party.
By definition, an exploit that is 'discovered' is '0-day'. You can't 'discover' a 0-day exploit. You discover an exploit, and the day that you publish it is the 0-th day of that exploit being known.
Yes, but what about the times when you enter 'nytimes' or something in the address bar. It defaults to a search. Even if you don't.. a lot of people do, without realising they are using the browsers inbuilt search.
But as stated.. the users preference is already preserved by IE7, and can easily be changed. But I get the feeling they are talking about Google desktop search vs Windows Vista desktop search, and nothing to do with the browser.
I take it youve never installed a starforce protected game?
I am all for this.. only the OS and tested device drivers should be running at ring 0. MS gets a lot of flack about unstable systems due to third party drivers which have no need to be running at that level anyway.
Its not much different to the ActiveX saga in browsers. IE is unstable due to plugins which run in the same process space to do things not really necessary by ActiveX controls.
But, if IE were to supply a rich set of APIs and a good security model, there would be no need, and getting rid of BHOs would stabalise the browser.
in other words, the problem of ActiveX controls in IE, is not unlike the problem of ring 0 drivers in Windows.
They have no reason to say this. Legitimate users don't want to hear that they are paying higher prices because of something they are not responisble for. And pirates don't care, because they aren't paying for it.
You do realise that would result in *less* security? The 'Trusted Sites' zone has far less security restrictions that the 'Internet' zone.
What you propose would require people to add the likes of Slashdot and Hotmail to the 'Trusted Sites' zone to function correctly. This effectively gives such sites far more access than you would probably like, much more than without playing with your 'zones' at all.
Except IE6+ has a default setup to block cookies from being set by sites other than the one you are on, cross domain cookies or whatever theyre called. ie. banner ads that set cookies etc.
That link you provided showed nothing about iptables doing application 'firewalling'.
It says "Iptables is also able to work on higher layers, such as the Application layer. However, it was not built for this task, and should not be used for that kind of usage. "
So.. this has nothing to do with blocking certain applications from communicating out. eg. blocking firefox.exe accessing wga.microsoft.com or whatever. It has to do with packet inspection at the application layer, and can't even do that well.
This sounds more like a bug with Linux/flash under linux, than with NY Times itself.
Apparently changing the UA string doesn't make a difference.. surely this would suggest to you a bug with the implementation of videos/flash etc under Linux than some kind of crazy consipracy.
You may not intend to get pregnant, but what if you were raped? and what if you then got pregnant, and were against abortion? Then you would be bringing a potentially deformed child into the world, which could have been avoided.
The beloved Google also distributes real in its Google pack. There seems to be some google-mozilla-real alliance, which is a shame that Real is in that equation, cause it really is quite crap. Money talks I guess. And its the only "decent" (I use that term very loosely) commercial media player that isn't owned by Microsoft or Apple.
Well my other comment about PR still stands. When they buy new domains or move to different sites.. they drop from the search results, google sandboxes them etc. Google also takes into consideration age of domains etc. Building PR takes a long time.. and the spam sites cant just move around all the time and still get traffic.
The difference being you are not creating a filter, but flagging sites manually as spam sites.
This is different because it is more difficult to set up a web site and domain (and build links to get in the top search result pages) than shoot off an email. Thus you are flagging the sites themselves, not the particular 'trigger words'.
Do a search for 'buy mobile phones' or some such crap.. look at the top 10 results or so. If they are obviously spam sites then flag them, and their entire domain. Have regular google searchers flag sites as 'this site was spam' through the toolbar and have them manually reviewed.
When you start knocking out the sites in entire domains and whois info's at a time, and are getting rid of mostly the spam sites hogging the top ten sites in search results, I dont think it would take too long to clean it out. Those sites then have to start from scratch as their domain is knocked out of any page rank they may have got, and hence any new sites they create are buried deep in the search results and are no longer a problem.
They are suggesting buying this card over an equivalently powered, but air-cooled, card. Thus, even if the performance were the same, you should get this - but the performance is actually better, (because it can be clocked higher due to the cooling) so thats the added bonus.
That said, Id personally take a hit to performance for a passively cooled card any day.
because they will simply point search.yahoo.com/search.cgi or whatever to the MSN servers. 99% of the people that use yahoo search wouldnt know the difference. If they could tell the difference, chances are they would be using google instead. Generally the people that use yahoo use it from yahoo messenger, some bookmark thats been installed, yahoo desktop search etc.. they dont use it because they think its actually a good search engine.
I imagine Google would use your reporting of conversions to determine how effective your ad is, which in turn would affect how often it is displayed. If you report no conversions, youre ad wouldn't show up as often. Report plenty of conversions, and your ad is more likely to be shown. So it would be in your interest to accurately report your conversion rate.
Modules... Only the modules (read: 'drivers') that are needed are loaded. It needs to be in the kernel because it accesses the hardware (the net card) at a fairly low level.
"Topics range from what Microsoft could have done to keep him spreading the word.."
Should actually read something like:
"Topics range from what Microsoft could have done to keep him, to spreading the word.."
It takes on another meaning without the punctuation. At first I thought they were trying to suppress him from spreading the word about the channel 9 site or something. editors?
Slashdot Mirror
The world consists of more than just the USA.

Hmm my bad, he is extracting, not creating, an archive. (been a while since I last made that comment).
Still.. with regular tar (not GNU tar) you cannot do that. But then you can't pass the -z option either. You have to manually (g)unzip first.
It works.. but it won't zip the result.
Create two tar files with the same contents using the command given. Run gzip over one of the files and compare the files size differences. Try it.
He is creating a '*.tar.gz' filename, but only a '*.tar' filetype.
I think whats really missing in the tar command is the '-z' due to it being a .gz
errr... how about P2P?

Yes but the OP emphasised *possible*.. as in, now its *possible* to browse the web on your TV, all thanks to the Wii.
Its nitpicking.. but probably.. "finally, the Wii will also have the ability to browse the web on your TV" is a bit clearer.

Wouldn't it be much easier to just have a Bonsai Kitten? No mess, no fuss, no allergies. And you can store it neatly on the shelf.
