In a workplace environment, you should not trust your users (or their machines) with their own backups. I like the situation at my workplace:
If we're plugged into the corporate network, we have software running that will periodically backup everything you place in your 'My Documents' folder or some other such folder. Users know that if they want something backed up, they put their data there.
For those of you who have been complaining that there hasn't been a good movie put out (myself included), fear no more! Go see The Aristocrats and you'll thank me for it. The only problem was I missed a lot of it because I was laughing too hard.
On another note, does anyone else think that the movie industry is rivaling the game industry and vice versa? Lots of whiz-bang special effects but no real story line to keep you interested and coming back.
How can you use a "web site" to attack someone? Wouldn't it be just a box sitting somewhere attached to a Chinese network?
Other than the fact that the attacks are coming from machines attached to a Chinese network and the reports that the PLA has been concentrating a little more on network warfare, what evidence are they basing their claims on that the attacks are coming from the Chinese government?
...is open to everyone...Please take note that sign-up occurs via mobile phone at the moment, and only U.S. citizens can register for now.
So its not open to everyone..yet?
Anyone know the reasoning behind this? Previously, I could invite my friends from France or Swaziland and they could sign up no problem. Why not let them register now? And without using a phone ?!
The article pointed out that the US market seems more interested in DVRs, than DVD Recorders and I agree with that assessment. Most of the TV I record is throw-away stuff that I want to watch for a couple times and then delete.
I thought Google Talk already came with a voice feature? I see it right there in the options.
Is Skype technically better?
It would be great. Every time you click on an ad you get a free minute of long distance. Sounds like a good idea for the home user who wants to talk to his family in India. I can only imagine the number of clicks happening.
I doubt thats how it would work, it would probably require you to DO something after you clicked on the advertisement.
Beer and keyboards don't mix. I spilled nearly a pint on mine and its tough working with it now. I won't give it up because its one of those old IBM keyboards and I just love it. But man its tough typing without arrow keys, a backspace and some letters. Reminds me of that Simpsons bit:
Marge: You know Homer, the "E" doesn't work on that typewriter
Homer: We don't need no stinkin' "E"! Ok, "Food Box: Go or No Go" by Homer..no, Earl..no, Bill Simpson!
Who enforces these laws? Are they enforced by the country where the trademark is being used?
If I am in Swaziland and I start selling my own version of Linux, who is going to stop me? I suppose the community won't recognize it as an official "Linux" distribution?
You're assuming that is only one PDA (TM) and that it can't be modified. The contract is to design and build a secure device from the ground up, not slap some bells and whistles on your Treo.
Believe me, if the government (especially the NSA, they're not known for wasting money) wants something, they'll get it.
There are two types of cheating. Cheating the house and cheating the other players. I have a problem with the former and not the latter. When you're playing against the house, the odds are severely stacked against you.
However, the best defense for any kind of cheating is, and always has been, a set (or multiple sets) of well trained eyes.
Sometimes, people NEED to be able to have support if something is broken. Waiting for a reply on a mailing list or hoping you don't piss off an op on IRC just isn't good enough.
This reason is why Redhat is so successful with their paid support.

What is the price of media for these things?

Ok, Conroe appears to be a lake in Texas, Merom is a bluff near the Wabash river in Indiana...where/what was the inspiration for Woodcrest?
Play Scrabble!
/Has no shame.
//Play, its good for you!

How about getting some of your current products out of beta and into production before putting out new stuff?
I was always taught to finish what you start...

Where would haunted houses be without the theramin?
And where would boardwalks be without haunted houses? Childhood as we know it would collapse.
I'll got ahead and put in a plug for Nevow here, another web framework that is based on the EXCELLENT Twisted framework.
If you're doing any sort of network programming in Python, you need to look at Twisted.

Everything is politics. That you can be sure of.
As far as it working, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible. How will it conflict with Googles offering in the area?
Looking hard enough isn't an answer.

I think that this could be the very first Slashdot thread composed entirely of AC posts.
Minus this one of course.
This is slightly off topic but I've heard that AMD chips are supposedly better for gaming than their Intel equivalents.
Is this marketing hype? User hype? Any truth or unsubstantiated personal anecdotes to confirm or deny?
Is that why a team from CHINA are the ones making this discovery?

Sure they get a lot of bandwidth out of this thing, but don't they essentially get the same coverage they would with one AP?
For a large size area, the benefit to having multiple APs is that you can spread them out to increase your coverage.
