Why not forward all email to a second account with a different provider for backup?
That is why I backup by Hotmail e-mail to my MSN account. Even my MSN connection which I'm on right now is as rock solid as my MSN e-mAI@*FDHJ#0+0+[NO CARRIER]
That's like saying "the operation was a perfect success, the patient lived for a whole week afterward".
My Powerbook goes months at a time. I only need to reboot when an update requires it (rarely) to a server I am running. Otherwise most updates can wait or require no reboot.
I'll bet $100 that even a clean install of XP with updates can not live on a laptop for a month, with a dozen or so lid-closings and openings a day (in and out of hibernation, that is). Never. Mac laptops do it all the time. There is a HUGE difference in stability.
That said, XP is a good OS for it's own reasons (build your own box, XP with Moz ok for Mom, some apps Windoze only) but people must be on Crack Rock(TM) if they think Windoze is nearly as stable as Mac OS, or Solaris, or most Linux kernels.
I leave VNC server open on port 666 and emailed the FBI with the IP, Port, and password, so they can have a peak whenever they want. At least I KNOW when they are looking because the little icon turns from white to black whenever the spooks are peekin' on my screen.
Unfortunately, I could care less about politics, so all some agent in an underground bunker is looking at is a lot of pr0n and Slashdot with some Fark thrown in. Who knows, maybe my VNC connection ends with a monitor in their lunch room so they can have a read while munching whatever it is that spooks eat.
- A life worth of the noobs e-mail. - A record of what the noob searches for (includes a persons likes, wants, needs, jobs, etc). - Access to every file on their computer. - All of the above will be cross-referenced (you are a fucking idiot if you think it will not. JetBlue will never give data to the Gov for TIA tests, either, eh? EH?)
This is waaaay too much info for a single company to have on a person. VERY scary. VERY.
Sygate personal firewall is awesome. And it has an option (which I have selected) to disable all internet connections until it has fully loaded after boot-up.
There is no need for animations on the web. MAYBE for scientific research, or medical use, but most of that could be done with trusty animated gifs or for real research a video clip.
Flash is used by 99.99999% of web sites because it CAN and because it look cool, not because it SHOULD. ANyone with a modicum of UI know-how and study knows how much of a shitty job most websites do with the basics, simple navigation with tabs and buttons. Give someone who is bad at using buttons to design a UI some Flash and all goes to hell. Oh, and not everyone uses Lynx any more, but that doesn't mean we are all on the web using IE 6.069 on a 3.2ghz Dell. My trusty Treo 600 can handle all the nice sites, including the normal versions of Slashdot and TheRegister. That's what standard complient code like HTML, XML, CSS will do.
An analogy to flash would be, well, really large anal-plugs are good at stretching an ass. doesn't mean I should put one up my ass every time I browse the web. See, that's what Flash animations are like.
:) I didn't think too many people know about that law. I can't stop laughing:)
Anyway, I seriously do think that the employees at SCO were part of the problem, so boo-hoo. I feel bad for kids that need feeding, couples that are strained, houses that need fixing, etc, but it's a big planet and shit happens and I would rather see SCO sink at the cost of a few people than have their jobs kept but SCO prosper.
So, again, and with no mention of Mr. H, boo-fuckin-hoo.
Still, some good friends of mine are now without work, without prescription benefits, and in this jobless recovery, without much hope. I feel very badly for them.
And in other news, many SS officers lost their jobs at the end of World War II. Boo fuckin-hoo.
I realize I just flamed, off topic... throw me a -1. I luv and have two linux boxes, I am just going though the problem of too much choice. I guess the problem is I see that as a problem when choice is always best. ANd now I'm ranting. I need sleep.:)
I am American and was born here my whole life. education is perfect in this grate country and I am so proud of it. You Yuropeans are always snooty and jealous becuase we are so strong and smart and our army is strong two. i could wrap java code around your head because I am so smart. Amerika is great and we are the best at science becuase we are number won.
First, know that the "OK" sign in many countries is considered vulgar, and in a lot of Europe is a way to signify a pussy, vagina, female genitalia, in a vulgar regerence.
Second, know that a fish, in the united states, is a non-direct however clear reference to the same. Pussy. Vagina. The odor of both is what has made the two a match in American vernacular.
Now, look at the photo again, and you will see a hard-core, sex crazed bird with two big references to pussy. I am laughing so hard right now I can't breathe. Need... help... and a 15 year old girl created this?!?!? Arrg.... short of breath.... help... too... funny...
:) lol. No shit. I have a friend who things he needs a P4 3.2 ghz machine to handle web serving for a dozen low-end sites. The load could probrably run off of a 386-DX 25mhz for christs sake. Anyway, funny post.
Slashdot Mirror
No no, Slashdot is still up. :P

You can use AirPort Express as a wireless bridge to extend the range of your primary base station.
I already want and need two. Sold. Amazing.

If I were a porn buddy, I think I would quickly break my promise, forget the porn, and give all of my attention to the lonely wife. :)
perfectly stable for weeks on end

Google will soon own, for many millions of noobs:

- A record of what the noob searches for (includes a persons likes, wants, needs, jobs, etc).

PLEASE! STOP RIGHT THERE! THAT'S THE POINT!

It is a *very* good thing your attitide was not to be had when a bunch of students started using ARPANET to communicate with text messages.
Sorry. Lost track of time. I'll have her home by 8:00 PM.
