I think you'd have to be in some pretty serious traffic in order to be able to connect adhoc and to WAP's on the fly like that. Say car1 w/ a WAP is in close proximity long enough to receive your broadcast for an IP. It returns the IP address to you and by the time your IP stack is repaired, it moves behind a big rig. So then you're broadcasting again, and get a WAP on the side of the road. By the time you broadcast, get an IP address, and then connect, you've passed the WAP and no longer receive a signal. So then Car2 with a WAP of a different flavor (802.11A) comes in range but going the opposite way on the other side of the road...
Seems to me like you'd need an array of wireless cards - 2 PCMCIA cards A&G, and 4 USB cards hanging on dongles connected to the roof, and some powerful multihoming software with a multiprocessor PC that could easily switch and aquire multiple IP addresses and autoswitching signal strength detectors.
I'm pretty much brainstorming but it sounds pretty difficult with existing technology to maintain a strong signal on the road.
As "Functional" as the Windows client? I've had more headaches with the Novell Client for Windows than I care to list. Ever since the Windows 95 client, it's been overbloated. I don't think the new linux client should be anything more than a drive mapping script and letting the Novell manager know the machine is online. Let ssh take over from there...

Does this entail editing the client PC's network settings, or can't you put the web page on a proxy? Why is it so much work to set up? I've read about DNS black holes before and they look cool, but what kind of software/hardware are you talking about?
Another alternative is Microsoft's ISA server, which has a VPN gateway that requires certain patches, AV to be in place before the client is allowed on, but of course, at a price.
From what I remember with Ghost, I need to reboot in order to boot the machine to a floppy and dump the image to my Ghostcast server. How do you create the image without rebooting?
I checked out a few airforce bases and saw quite a few F16's and A-10's on the ground a Nellis Airforce Base and just outside of Las Vegas. You can see a few fighters are painted camo, and perhaps a few colors of different nations (Israel).
I know it's too late now but I wish Lucas would have spent just a fraction of his budget on location shoots and puppets. Bring back the puppet bar band from the first Star Wars movie. I swear, all this blue screen green screen crap will make this next movie crap. Instead of spending 20mil on a fiber optic digital rendering, spend 10 mil and spend the rest on an actual location shoot. Don't expect to see real dirt when someone falls on the ground. Nor real grass, real fog, or real water. It'll all just be some digital rendering. Even though that trash compactor in the first movie looked kind of fake, at least the actors hair would get wet and princess lea's makeup would run. These water willy extravaganzas will be entertaining maybe but half the fun of the first star wars was the "that's clever" factor; now it's just adventure-less story telling, set on a sterile lifeless digital backdrop. I guess a dollar doesn't go as far anymore but I can't blame Lucas wants to sit in a studio with a mochachino and watch a plasma screen instead of spending a week in the Gobi desert. Oh well, at least I still have the Clone Wars animated series DVD to look forward to.

I'd like to share my browsing experience with my sweetie. Kind of like a status bar or something we can see real-time what websites we are visiting. It would be our choice if we want to share this info. I guess it would be similar to an IM but it wouldn't have to include chat. Of course, password protected sites would be unavailable. Basically I would like to see a click-able hyperlink in the statusbar showing me what website she currently has active. It could have a drop-down/up menu for multiple users as well.
Off topic, but I'm wondering if any other condo owners out there use solar? I have a place who's only south-facing wall is my next-door neighbors. Also, the home-owners association does not allow us to climb up on the roof.
I'm not 100% sure but I believe a Knoppix Live CD and a newly installed Knoppix hard drive install has this disabled by default. To which distro's in particular are you referring?
YEah because you can ssh like into almost any linux box. Not so in windows. That's why I use windows. In windows, you open up a command prompt, and then if you type in the command:
c:\>cmd 192.168.0.101
it brings you right back to the command prompt:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

That's security right there. You can't even get a command prompt from another box within command.
I'm a novice ssh user, and I'm a little unclear on man in the middle and if this carbon-copy technique will benefit? For example, my debian box got a new dhcp address after being powered off from a power outage, I ssh'd into it and Putty alerted me that it had a new signature (I assumed because of the new IP address). Will this technique benefit me by creating a carbon copy in addition to looking at the signature before I log in? It's probably my own fault because I never created and shared my own keys; I recall something about creating my own key, then entering that key into Putty, but it's escaped me. Does anyone have a good easy procedure to run if I ever get a notification that my hash signature has changed? A little extra protection sounds good especially if I'm connecting outside the confines of my LAN.
Very good point. But what I can't understand is why they send the rovers to the Martian desert. Why couldn't they drop them on top of the polar ice caps? Or better yet, near the very edge of the ice caps where run-off is most likely to occur? Is it impossible because of the orbits?
Looks like the modders just don't know what to make of the post. It was meant to be funny and also a smack at the "funny" posters who use the above posts to gain mod points. I no way was I regarding the Chinese in either a negative manner. I hope no offense was taken.
This would give new meaning to "Life in prison". Better not do anything wrong or those bars would become awefully familiar. Then of course, we'd have to supply all existing prisoners with food/clothing/medical for 900 years. Or do prisoners lose their right to medical support? In the time it takes to go old an die, you're bound to screw up somehow, and then, say, you get a 100 year sentence, for say, a misdemeanor, you get denied your life-giving meds, and die in jail for a misdemeanor. The sentencing for laws and convictions would need to be re-written.

There sure are a lot of those mounds. I wonder how many underground blasts were conducted here? Too many for me to count...
