dell is a pretty large company. This could very well cause +R to win the "battle", and if not, we'll go out and spend $200 to buy a -R drive, and move all our data on to -R discs. Just like i migrated from Zip to CD-R. It's a minor inconvienience, but it's not the the end of the world.
actually, mario 3 was a sequel to Super Mario Brothers: The lost levels. Mario 2 was somthing completely different, and was originally called "Dream Factory" until nintendo quickly hacked it into a mario game, releasing it in north america. The Lost Levels was released as SMB2 in japan
The problem is not that linux will become illegal, it's that your computer will only boot signed linux kernels. This means that you would have to use only linux kernels compiled by vendors that could afford the trusted private keys to sign the software. You would lose the ability to compile your own kernel, and only large vendors would be able to afford to stay in business
an easy way, that would be backwards compatible, would be to have the server do a sleep(3) after recieving the from and rcpt commands, just before accepting the data command.
by simply reducing the speed that the mail server interfaces with it's clients and peers, we can make a delay that affects mass mailings, but has little effect on normal email usage.
what's so bad about it? making bulk mail difficult to send, with little impact to legitimate mail. all the mail server needs to do is sleep(2) after "rcpt to: address".
are you even going to notice that your email takes 2 seconds longer to send?
i heard once of a solution that would have been easy to implement. I believe the idea was to make the mail server wait one or two seconds after recieving a connection before it accepted the mail.
The idea being that a legitimate email would take 2 seconds longer to send, but spam would be pointless to send because a 30000000+ recipient message would take *years*, making the transmission cost ineffective
it seems like a good idea. hell, if hotmail and yahoo alone implemented this, we would see a dramatic reduction in spam, as the market slowly died
I was under the impresssion that the serial number on a bill wasn't actually a serial number, but a lot number instead. i was imagining that the lot would contain all the bills on one sheet of paper, and so have maybe 40 or 50 bills in it... ( how many bills on a sheet?)
Then again, i'm in canada, so it is probably different elsewhere
if ford issues a recall for your car, because it's got a faulty fuel tank which may cause it to explode, and you ignore them, and it explodes, it's your fault.
if you have a computer, and you have been spewing code red out on the internet because you couldn't install the patch that was released almost 2 years ago, then yes, it's your fault.
they probably could if they wanted to. people would just accept it and change their dictionaries to match. aw hell, microsoft could just buy the dictionaries
linux people didn't write your drivers. nVidia did. the drivers are closed source, the specs for the hardware are unobtainable, and older cards arent getting any attention from the nvidia developers.
so did the developers really blame the hardware? or maybe you don't have a fscking clue what you're talking about
yeah... a stationwagon full of dat tapes has some really wicked bandwidth. But i wouldn't expect that said vehicle would perform well in a gaming environment

one of the interesting things about the english language is, that the moment somone uses a word like "Fucktard", it becomes a word
it's a refrence to Monty Python and the Holy Grail
it's not just reserved for processors, it's the "most cost effective density of transistors on a chip"
i believe that "Duck Tape" was the term used by the US military before somone realized that it was useful for patching leaks in ventilation systems

does anybody know if the original metroid map was actually finite? it sure was big...

No, actually the logic is quite different, having been put in that situation myself.
The administration would simply prefer to turn a blind eye to the situation. They simply intimidate the victims into silence.
I saw a K5 once when i was working in a used parts store.

Yeah.. i remember that...
they used it in the the first jurrasic park movie..
looked cool, but i would imagine that it would be difficult to use
this becomes impossible when a site is being hosted overseas...

Oh fuck off. that bug report is for a BETA version of the software.

not eleven billion dollars.. eleventy billion. As in 110 billion
that's just mean..
