The funny thing about that is Marconi tried to patent his radio device but the patent office, becouse the device only worked short distances, said that it had no use. If that isn't irony I don't know what is.:)
Are you talking about this patent? If they refused the claim, it would be rather odd for them to give it a patent number and all, wouldn't it?
This online program makes no changes to the WHOIS database.
The scope of this online program is to send the template to the e-mail address entered in the field below.
Once you receive the completed template, you must forward it to the appropriate point of contact for action.
The NIC will not process any templates until it receives this template (by email) from the domain administrator or service PMO.
So you are essentially filling a template, which you can do by hand as well, following the instructions here.
It lets you retrieve POC by a handle though. I don't know the access level of this information in USA, but this is quite odd, since it seems that the handles are assigned by initials, and are of progressively increasing length.
I also wonder where does this interface gets that data from... There's a DB somewhere, and it can be probably hacked via this interface.
This is especially true with University servers and other places that install all software packages that come with their Linux distribution in the name of "research" or "education".
I wonder what is the meaning of those quotes above. Are you suggesting that universities should compromise education possibilities due to some exploits?
I guess you overestimate the importance of network security. It is secondary to network functionality. The latter is defined first, the former is the job of a sysadmin.
One funny consequence of the fact that time didn't exist before the universe is that the universe has always existed. Even though it's been a finite time, there was no time before the universe, so there is no way a "before" could even be defined. That's a good argument to use whenever some religious fanatic bashes the Big Bang theory with the argument that it doesn't explain what happened before it:)
That's complete nonsense. First, our time didn't exist before the Big Bang. Second, absence of causality doesn't follow from absence of time. Theoretically, we can create a black hole that will expand into another universe with its own space-time, orthogonal to ours. Still, "before" can clearly be defined for that universe.
I remember alot about a car that: 1) I never saw with my own eyes 2) I was not around when I had said eyes 3) My mother never told me anything about How the fuck do explain that! And another thing don't come at me with all this overblown quasi-intelliSpeak. You just make yourself look like an ass.
Large white car... that's a lot. I mean it's so glaringly obvious that your memory of some large white car is of the same car that you couldn't have possibly seen.
Anyone ever see the movie Demolition Man?
There's a scene in it the explains very simply why biometric authentication is a bad idea:
Snipes, needs to bust out of this high-tech future prison, but they have a retinal scanner on the door, so he just takes the eye of some guy he just killed, stick it on a pen and holds it in front or the scanner.
More than a year ago journalists were allowed into NSA building. The filmed data and interviews were shown on American TV and were available on some news site (NBC, if I am not mistaken).
They show there one of the authorization systems at the entrance, which happens to be a retinal scanner, simultaneous for both eyes, which also measures distance between eyes and such.
They say specifically that the system only works for live person.
Obviously, your logic regarding biometric authentication being a bad idea is wrong.
Wouldn't it be nice if web designers stopped dictating the size you need to run your browser? One designer tells me I'm supposed to run my browser at 800x600, another at 1024x768, and another at some oddball resolution.
I always found those resolution specifications odd. Do these fools really expect me to switch screen resolution in order to better view their silly webpage?
Somethign tells me this guy who burnt the place down, will not go to the tropics to meet woman. Instead he is going to prison and meet Bubba; the A$$ Plow.
Please keep your barbaric notions of prison to yourself. Prisons in Netherlands constrain the punishment to the one given by the judge, and do not employ cruelty like the American prisons, which do so in order to bring prosperity to the commercialized federal prison system
If you're the G=1,000,000,000 measurement school, then it should be 4,700,000,000 as you say, or 4.3GB in the 1024-base units, as I think a parent poster indicated.

A very dirty hack and not in any way part of the DNS standard, but not advertising.
You might be right about that, but in my opinion this sets a very dangerous precedent.
Advertising comes to mind.. as does censorship.
Think of the children!

I did the process at the .mil NIC site.
After you fill all the forms, there's:

Just like "matrices" is the plural of "matrix".
"Matrices" is a plural form of "matrix." The other one is "matrixes."
Lmao...
Your other trolls are nice too, but this one is hilarious... "entropy pollution", hehe :)
"Linux of Windows XP bootloader", this one is amazing. I wonder whether it's a typo, or intentional...
That silences the "unused variable" warning, and makes it DAMN clear in the prototype that the function will never use those parameters.
Parameter names are part of the function definition, not the prototype.

Use defines language.
Get over it.
Three words: you have no clue.
This "quantum pairing" doesn't allow passing of information.
I am pleased to see the correct use of the term "hacker". Now if we could just work on the folks at CNN...
Use defines language.
Get over it.
Shred is useless on modern filesystems, which do not overwrite data in place.
At least, they should explain more in what are those estimates based
I'm sure they do in the actual article. Although I agree with you that the headline sucks.
So neither of you have read the article, yet argue about what it should be like.
Slashdot... I like this site.

Thanks.

Respect.

So basically you guys go light on your criminals so that you can feel better about yourselves at night?
No, "we guys" do not consider rape in prison as a part of state punishment.
P.S. I don't know how did you deduce that I am a citizen of Netherlands - I am not, but perhaps the notion of not transferring the people who performed crimes against the society into the rank of animals is too far from your moral stance.

Which you could load in HIMEM.
Exactly.
Hey dude, I use junkbuster, I see zero ads.
Am I being bad?
Hm. And here I thought that it was 1024^3.
Dear Sir,
I am so happy to help your ignorance!
Systeme Internationale clearly indicates that the "Giga" prefix denotes multiplication factor of 10E9.
If you're the G=1,000,000,000 measurement school, then it should be 4,700,000,000 as you say, or 4.3GB in the 1024-base units, as I think a parent poster indicated.
Dear Sir,
My school is called Systeme Internationale.
