Actually, there were many Rio's. I was referring to the older Rio One which happened to be one of the first Rio's to work with Linux via USB, though with some tweaking. I wasn't commenting that's its truly sad that they're going out of the market as many of had some history with them...
As for just trying to promote my site... well take this...
And as for "fucking off", ummm I don't even know if I want to comment on how immature you sound when you type that. I have a wife and four kids. I don't need to "fuck off".
I can see the conspiracy forming already... send *penguin* to another planet, but have it secretly running Windows. Wait til it crashes and BSOD's, then tell the world it was running Linux. This is the next logical step for the Get The Facts campaign. First you smear Linux worldwide, the globally. Those bastards...
This is perfect 'cause now I can use my cellphone while driving. Initially I thought I just needed a headset, but all those reports show that conversation is really the distraction. But with better cruise control, that becomes less of an issue, so I can use my cellphone more...
Thanks to my Treo, I get my corporate email delivered in near realtime via GoodLink and my personal email delivered every 15 minutes via ChatterEmail (3 IMAP, 2 POP).
The really scary thing are holiday weekends. The emails slow down and I find myself sending myself test emails just to make sure my mail server didn't go down. Talk about a dependency... my email addiction is worse than my crack addiction or my PSP addiction.:)
I use Earthlink and saw a link on their site about 6 months back for "testers" of their broadband offerings. I signed up cause it offered discount service. About 3 months ago, they sent me a new router (a Linksys, but not the same one as this article) and set me up with end-to-end IPv6. So far, all's worked fine and w/o issue. Perhaps this firmware patch is to be released before they start offering it to more users...
Or you call 911 and get a recording that they're overwhelmed with calls at the time...
Or when you work at a 7-11 and a guy robs you at gunpoint and you call 911 and they say they're really busy and won't be there for 30 minutes... (happened to me a few years back)
My point??? I can see plenty of times the system has failed or people have died even when 911 service was available.
There's this really kewl little script out there... I can't remember the name of it, but basically you enter the IP of a system on your local LAN and the system completely and totally freezes up. Turn it off and the system operates like it just froze... no data loss, nothing. So, I suggest a simple Linux box running NTOP. Find the highest traffic users during the outbreak, and DDoS 'em. Even rebooting won't help them.:) Of course, there's many tools out there that incorporate NTOP, Nessus, NMAP, etc to find which systems are vulnerable and all that, but without local access to the systems themselves to turn them off or patch them, you should just DDoS until the outbreak goes away and those offending systems can be fixed.
Okay, so I'm not an anarchist, but isn't there a slight irony in that an anarchist and pro-anarchist website is being forced to do what the governments asks of them? Last I checked, anarchy was about the absense of government...

I'm sure this comment won't rest well with most/.'ers, but personally I wouldn't mind seeing the NSA (or perhaps a UN version of the NSA) become the traffic cops for the internet. Perhaps we could actually cut down on viruses, worm, spyware, etc with a legally empowered entity in charge.
So thanks to today's news that Symantec programs may execute programs that should be flagged, one must now only use a solid product like Symantec Anti-Virus to load up software to remove Microsoft's anti-spyware software. Beautiful. Perhaps I should save everyone the time and hassle and just make a website with a malformed jpg or gif that loads an ActiveX script to then download the trojan and thus get it all done in one shot. Vulnerability after vulnerability after vulnerability. Perhaps this guy wasn't so far off.
Of course, I can't help but point out the obvious: rumors keep abounding that M$ will charge for its anti-spyware and anti-virus softwares. So let me see if I'm clear on this... they write shitty code that I'm forced to use (since the apps I need only run on Win32), and then I have to pay again for software to keep people from exploiting the software that was shitty to begin with. Isn't that a bit like selling you a piece of shit car, then charging you to use your warranty when the clutch fails on day #2 of ownership? You know, many of us thought that the day would come that M$ would charge for access to WindowsUpdate. Is there anything they won't charge for? Don't they ever say "we fucked up... here's a freebie on us"? Or "you already paid $300 for our OS... here's a way to secure it for free".
Well, the CTRL+ & CTRL- is the page/size resizing feature. It goes back to Netscape 7 and some early Mozilla releases. In either of those browsers, you could hit CTRL+ to make a page's font bigger in case the screen resolution was too small. I never encountered this with Firefox, but my guess is that early versions (that were based on Mozilla/Netscape source code) simply didn't implement the feature properly. Even with the latest Mozilla, I still occasionally see the left-most column on/. appear to blend with the center column, but a refresh fixes it and its never bad enough to make things unreadable.
Huh? Actually myself and 3 of my developers use Firefox solely and read Slashdot daily. Not sure I follow your comment since at its surface it appears to be groundless rantings and nothing of truth or value.
I know, I know... call him a Troll. Actually, I saved my company upwards of $15,000 a year by not renewing software and support contracts for our Nokia firewalls and instead replacing them with Smoothwall (a Linux firewall). I was even able to install Smoothwall onto the old Nokia IP350 hardware.
I also avoided upgrade costs to XP for about 10 of our 50 systems. This last year, we upgraded all from Win2K to XP. However, 10 of the systems were only used by temps, contractors, and consultants and only for web browsing, webmail, etc. So we installed FC3 on them saved the almost $200 each on XP upgrade licenses.
Oh, and I save the whole company countless amounts of money when I installed Firefox and set it as the default browser. Pop-ups went away, re-installs resulting from spyware went away, etc. It saved my time (not having to do re-installs and system restores) and end-user times (not having their system unusable while I fixed them).
