Many protocols are insecure when are used inproperly. But the good news is that many of them are modular to each other. You can still use SMTP, but don't use it without procmail (or other similar filter), which should be used with pgp/gpg e-signuature and challenge based filters.
That's what I use with my private mailbox: all unsigned email is answered with sugestion to sign email with a recognized key. So, all unsigned email belongs to black-lists.
Some of them answer with signing their messages with some key. The filter is checking if the public key is in my white keyring (then I see email), if not - they are checked against public key-servers and if there is a key there then they are marked "grey". When I read "grey" messages I can save the key in a "white-list" keyring or drop the message to the "black-list" folder where the key will be picked up and stored in the "black-list" keyring.
It's about two years as I implemented it on my home mail server and since then I don't read any spam. I don't have any problems with my friends either.
I am not telling to install mail-servers at every home, but it's not a big deal for ISPs to implement the same service on their mail servers. No need to wipe out SMTP. No need even to re-write any internet software - just use what we already have, but do it smart:)
In my yahoo mailbox I am regularly getting spam from Yahoo itself. When all other messages are displayed they have "This is a spam" link. But spam messages from yahoo don't have it. What does it mean is that Yahoo doesn't consider their messages as a spam. I guess it's same about Microsoft. And probably the same about AOL and other email providers.
Perl with XUL? It's a direct way to obfuscate XUL!
XUL is XML and as such it's here for being human readable. Perl is not human readable (let's say it's hacker-readable and hackers are not exactly humans).
I think XUL may have any chance ONLY if it will be scripted with a language of very clean syntax and semantic. Python is a good choice as it's clean and already everywhere.
I think Mozilla development team has serious personal problems of its decision makers as they want to bring Perl to XUL.
By the way, XUL doesn't really need any imperative-based scrpting if it will be used with definition-based scripting of another XML-based language, such as Xexp.
... and if 5 buttons is not enough - give me 10 button mouse. Wait, I have 101 buttons on my keyboard - can I use it as a mouse? Wow, in xterm I have the most freedom Iever had! Seems like I don't need any mouse any more!
Although now DW is using Photoshop 7 in Crossover on Linux
I think the cost of problems associated to such running would be more than the cost of contributing to GIMP to polish it for own tasks. Rather than this way of contributing:
Also they contributed to Crossover with Disney/Pixar to get Photoshop working on Linux
Good point. But very wrong place to ask. You should forward your concern to Linus and let him correct the license: from now on it's illegal to use Linux to produce (render, store, transfer) any movies untill there will be (someone will develop and open-source) the tool to view movies.
Matsushita Electric Industrial, Sony Corporation, Hitachi, NEC Corporation, Royal Philips Electronics, Samsung Electronics, Sharp Corporation, and Toshiba Corporation
I don't see any American company in the list. Seems to mee they all are scared by Microsoft and SCO.
I'd like also some advise about how to build my home from scratch (where I would be able to build my home network from scratch) as I don't have any home right now. Anyone?
Future Proof Design:
The NOMAD II MG supports standard MP3, WMA, and WAV formats and its upgradeable technology allows new features and enhancements to be downloaded to it from NOMADWorld.com. With the NOMAD II MG, you can be on the cutting edge of MP3 music technology.
I guess, we should drive to US, at least for a vacation, there we should rent the furnished monthly-paid appartment, then we should go to US bank and open account showing there the new address with the Bell bill and so on. Then we should apply for credit card in the same or another US bank. Then we wait getting a credit card mailed to that rented app (CCs are delivered usually with "no forward" mark on the envelope). Then we apply the address change form in the Postal Office/Outlet. Then we move back to Canada. Now we have a CC with US address. Let's the shopping begin!
Does anyone know another simpler "hack" of the stupid US-Canada relationships regarding the subject?
I see it as they were challenged with profits and answered with russian profits.
I don't see anything wrong with that either. Especially counting the fact that they are both taking profits mostly from different readers (one from english reading ones, the other - from russians).
Correction: X11 from Apple includes windows server (where you various local and remote X windows) and client libraries (for a case if your local X applications are linked dynamically).
I don't see anything that would point that the russian author admits any copyright violation. Specifically he told that he's answered, which most likely must be interpreted: they challenged us, Russians, with their mythology, so let's answer them with our, Russian mythology.
Personally I (and hope no judge/court either) don't see anything wrong if in each of 200 our planet's nationalties (or whatever's left from colonization extinction) will write the book half-based on their mythology, half-based on some similar modern scenario. I'd like to read "Sindbad Mahmootter" or "Lee Xaotter".
Tanya Grotter appears to be somewhat derivative of Harry Potter.
Did you read it or you just repeat after others?
Tanya Grotter is completely based on Russian folklor fantasy story tails, which I heard more than 3 decades ago from my grandmother. And I won't be surprised to find out that Harry Potters stories are based on west-europen folklor. So, who is stealing what?
Now think about Gecko. Gecko, as a browser technology, is essentially dead. KHTML, thanks to Apple, rules the day.
According to my desktop neutral but Linux based website (see sig), over 45% of my hits come from Mozilla. Only 8% come from Konq (and in fact it's normally lower, more like 4-5% on most days, but the figures do vary). Interestingly, Internet Explorer makes up the rest, presumably from people visiting at work.
Relax, he's an Apple lunatic/fanatic/zealot. For them everything is dead if it's not from Apple. Their OS is derived from BSD, so what would you expect?
On a serious note, in our company (and in several partners I know) most of non-IE users are with Mozilla, some with Opera. None with KHTML, even web-designers. Well, if they design for other than KHTML browsers then why would they use KHTML? They might want to, but their job responsibilities require other browsers.
RAM is cheaper than CF, so buy enough RAM. And make sure that you just boot from CF. Well, you may write (save) some application data at the end right before shutting down. But keep it read-only the rest of the day.
If you don't know how to do it than read the latest Gentoo Weekly News, the section about "LiveCD on USB/CF". With Gentoo it's already clear how to it.
Moreover, you'll get paid - one bomb per each album you've shared:)
On a serious note: how many countries have same/similar copyright protection laws? And isn't true that most (if not all) countries, that don't protect copyrights in a way that US can bring someone to the local court, are USA's long-term bombing targets anyway?
I don't see any *intellectual* property in US. There are many properties there, but none are really intellectual. Just look what their goverment is doing regarding so called IP, or better check how is intellectual their president, for example.
The problem with Python is that it just doesn't offer a complete framework like J2EE to run an enterprise application - i know that i'm going to get ppl saying "What about Zope?" and stuff like that, but there honestly isn't a competitive server framework.
Well, if you say so then why J2EE is more competetive than Zope? Personally I disagree with you. I've tried both J2EE and Zope in several projects and I see many problems with J2EE. One of them is that it's overkilling by resource to be really distributed, while it doesn really help to automate many tasks leaving a lot of dirty work on shoulders of programmers. I agree that if you have to write with Java then it's better with J2EE than without. In some cases. In many other cases it's better with XSL and XML-RPC then with RMI. So, basically I don't see J2EE as a universal magic thing for all enterprises. Moreover, in many cases J2EE is not the way to go.
Agree that Zope may still need some features, and that is easy to see when you use Zope already. But even taking it as it is now it's a very good met-framework (it's a perfect framework to create frameworks, like CMF or Plone). It has much better ROI in areas of application management and content management. It's easily integrated with XSL and XML-RPC. And it's much better in terms of resources for being widely distributed across an enterprise.
That's what I am thinking. But without any intend to start any flame I am looking for opinions of other people. Especially when they know both Java and Python - in that case it's less chance of getting biassed flames.
So, if you'd be so kind to give your opinion about Zope vs J2EE I would very appreciate it.

Built into an OS? Do you mean linked to a kernel? Or being a part of a boot procedure? Which part of an OS do you mean they will build IE into?
/.ed?

By the way, I've been using Kerberos in Slackware Linux in 1996. Does it fell to your definition of "forever"?

I don't see any BSD in the review. Does it mean that BSD is no more enterprise ready?
