Nice try, but your interpretation of the division operator is wrong. Other posters have already pointed out the mistyped data, but I'd just like to say / ON INTEGERS RETURNS THE QUOTIENT, quotient being result of division without the remainder. So, yes, 1/2 = 0(quotient) + 1/2(remainder), but you only asked for the quotient, not the remainder.

I've been using IIP for the past couple months now, but have yet to see a any interesting useful channels./list only shows -s (non-secret) channels, I'm sure there has to be something more interesting out there... Anyone have any more information?
On a related note, on IIP you can/mode #channel +a to make even the nicknames anonymous. Yours still shows up in your own client though, but others will see you as "Anonymous". Pretty useful, but otherwise theres not much activity on IIP. The technology is there, wheres the application?
Why the FUCK do we need yetanotherwindowingtoolkitsystem? X11 came out first, I thought it was bad enough, then clever hackers decided to layer on KDE and GTK+. Now we have ANOTHER layer, incompatible with all other x11-toolkits. Can anyone justify another X11 WTK?
On a side note, I've used wxWindows in Python and I must say I was definitely impressed how one wxWindows Python script can display identical windows on Mac OS, Linux, and Win32s. We need more of this cross-platform compatibility.
Hi, I found this article on GOOGLE and was looking for music concerts, not some cheap dialtone concert. Could anyone provide any information on authentic, genuine music concerts?
VNC uses a DES-encrypted challenge-response system to avoid passing passwords
over the wire in plaintext.
However, it seems that a weakness in the way the challenge is generated by
some servers would make this useless.
The following program attempts to repeatedly connect to a vnc server and
prints the challenge string.
Against tightvnc-1.2.1_unixsrc, you'll see output like
$ python pvc.py somehost:1
4b24fbab355452b55729d630fcf73d43
b3acdf3fab422b7aa49b8d786f93def3
b3acdf3fab422b7aa49b8d786f93def3
b3acdf3fab422b7aa49b8d786f93def3
b3acdf3fab422b7aa49b8d786f93def3
88e37f1677c4e4f56eb2fa00a2804ded
88e37f1677c4e4f56eb2fa00a2804ded
88e37f1677c4e4f56eb2fa00a2804ded
88e37f1677c4e4f56eb2fa00a2804ded
[...]
each time the same string is printed twice in a row the server has
repeated a challenge.
WinVNC version 3.3.3R9 will display output more like
$ python pvc.py otherhost:0
Server declined connection
Server declined connection
91ff701f7dce8c6eebbc6062ffebcc6a
Server declined connection
Server declined connection
[...]
It appears that connects are rate-limited, even if the connects come
from two distinct machines. This appears to foil the below attack on
VNC authentication. (Whether this means there is a good DoS opportunity
against WinVNC is a separate question)
If your server will give the same challenge repeatedly, and you can
sniff somebody else's challenge and response, it appears that you could
authenticate without knowing the password simply by connecting within
the 1-second window to get the same challenge, and then send the same
response as the legitimate client.
TightVNC also has a nice feature of allowing multiple VNC remote logins. One can set up a vncserver and use vncviewer on several remote and local computers, where AT&T VNC locks out the last user's session.

Agreed, "downloads" is misleading, as it could also refer to downloads from you, zipping across the net to other people. That's very important if you upload a lot of content regularly, as I do.
IP is good for everything. I remember a chant from a while back:
IP over Everything Everything over IP
"IP over Everything" is so passe, it refers to using IP over various layer one media, such as CAT5, Fiber, Token Ring, and copper wire. Seems obvious.
So now that we have IP over everything, why not put all our higher-level devices over IP? Seems like a logical extension, since all the ISO layers below are over IP.
And no, IP is not a square peg in a round hole. Moore's law isn't working for bandwidth. Like it or not, there is not enough economic demand for bandwidth, or otherwise all the dark fiber would be lit up. And its not being lit up. Personally, I think the obsession with everything over IP is driven by simple economics.
Do everything over IP, and bandwidth will be demanded, and dark fiber around the world will be used, bandwidth will be sold and resold, and the remarket for IP bandwidth will be virgin once again.
There was an article in Wired this month about this very subject, for your information.
I think you hit the nail on the head. I've done some further testing, and GAIM says I have been disconnected, several minutes after I signed on with the same screenname on another computer. I suppose it has to do with BSD's timing as compared to Linux (although I set my HZ to 2000) this should be filed in a bug report.
And I share your feelings against Linux-only software. It seems as if there's a whole generation of coders, aimed at writing Unix software for Linux and nothing else. Fortunately however, the last geneation is still around, among the coders in stable projects such as X Windows, Gimp, XMMS and so on. Mplayer is a particularly good example of the "new" generation of hothead Linux coders, and I'm not the only one who noticed it:
Q: I compiled MPlayer with libdvdcss/libdivxdecore support, but when I try to start it, it says: error while loading shared libraries: lib*.so.0: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
I checked the file and it is there in/usr/local/lib.
A: What are you doing on Linux? Can't you install a library? Why do we get these questions? It's not MPlayer specific at all! Add/usr/local/lib to/etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. Or install it to/usr/lib, because if you can't solve the/usr/local problem, you are careless enough to do such things.
Perhaps instead of taking the time to flame the person asking the question, the smart aleck could have simply answered the question graciously, then spent the time saved by skipping the flames fixing bugs in the installation script.
Eventually I negotiated my way through the installation minefield created by the agonizing installation and poor design. I stepped through it one gotcha at a time. I won't bore you with a tedious play-by-play, but I will mention that I had more bite marks than I would have if I had napped in a fire ant mound.
Sad how these bright minds have come to only ridicule the average user instead of using their skills for good, isn't it.
Is it okay to set up a 54Mbps 802.11g wireless network to waste bandwidth? I personally don't swap music at school, but I'd like to know the possibilities of high-bitrate streaming media across campus, and other bandwidth-intensive operations.

I completely agree. 2x=1 cannot be solved without what you said.
Nice try, but your interpretation of the division operator is wrong. Other posters have already pointed out the mistyped data, but I'd just like to say / ON INTEGERS RETURNS THE QUOTIENT, quotient being result of division without the remainder. So, yes, 1/2 = 0(quotient) + 1/2(remainder), but you only asked for the quotient, not the remainder.
Its also the 6502 assembly opcode for Relative Branch if Clear Carry. And keep in mind, the x86 NOP instruction is actually aliased to XCHG EAX, EAX.

Use the FLOGGY codec, its specifically designed for low quality.
So does Ogg at 4 kbps (!) 6khz, its near AM quality. And AM has a bandwidth of about 8 kbps, so Ogg's compression is really paying off.
TightVNC also has a nice feature of allowing multiple VNC remote logins. One can set up a vncserver and use vncviewer on several remote and local computers, where AT&T VNC locks out the last user's session.
