I just mentioned that because, at least for MS Word, there don't appear to be many or any improvements to the file formats, just changes to break compatibility so that you will have to upgrade to keep up with people sending you documents from a newer version of MS's Office software.
(4) Seamless Data Exchange: Microsoft claims seamless data exchange within Microsoft Office - but it's only between people using Microsoft products. OpenOffice allows people who use a variety of operating systems and data formats to interact with each other. Microsoft Office does not.
Often it's not even possible to use Office formats between versions. Try to edit an MS Office 2003 file on a system that's using MS Office '97.
I guess if you had taken a peak at the link to the McAfee site you would have seen the pictures demonstrating how corporate users and retail users can turn on detection for non-viral programs that are listed in the McAffee database.
That's the fun with this one! It doesn't carry an attachment at all. Rather, it downloads the payload from the foreign system that sent the viral email. It was covered by The Register on 2004/03/18.
I'd say that one of the problems with information overload is the tendency to use automatic tools to make your decisions for you about the people that have their information stored in that data.
However, there was no extradition of Dmitri. He came to the US and was arrested on US soil. Of course I'm not making judgement on either, just saying that they're different.
I think when they're talking about the $5 cups, they're probably referring to everything but the plain coffee. The plain coffee is ~$2 for a venti, but everything else is ~$5 for a venti (like white chocolate mocha), although I wouldn't call their regular coffee premium, even in quotes!
I failed, too. It had six pictures of people riding bicycles, so I put bicycle riders, but that was wrong and they'd only allow bicycle, which isn't what the pictures were of.
Bellsouth ADSL doesn't prohibit using your connection for serving. Neither does Speakeasy if you're lucky and can get it (I can't, but I'd love to). Granted, you only get 256Kb/s upload on Bellsouth's DSL, but that's enough for a tiny website. The only prohibition I know of is that they won't let you run your own outgoing mail server, instead you have to forward to their mail servers.
I had a Motorola GSM phone from Cingular that didn't appear to have a SIM card. Maybe it was internal, or maybe not, but it wasn't easily accessible. I now have a Samsung GSM phone from T-Mobile, and it has a SIM card behind the battery which is easily gotten at.
BTW, Sprint uses CDMA. Some of Cingular is TDMA, as is some of AT&T, and they are both moving to GSM. The move here is dependent on AT&T beginning to use the 850MHz band for GSM along with the 1900Mhz band.
At least one BSD is unhappy about the prospect of the new license and is threatening to fork. Hopefully everyone can get together and have a single fork with a license like the older X license if it does end up coming to a fork.
A religious group that follows a particular theological system. In the context of Christianity it is a group that uses the Bible but distorts the doctrines that affect salvation sufficiently to cause salvation to be unattainable. A few examples of cults are Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, Christian Science, Christadelphians, Unity, Religious Science, TheWay International, and the Moonies.
Which is then followed up:
That is the Christian view based on theology, not reality. A cult is a social structure and while some of the above groups are cults, so are fundamentalist Christians. A group that displays three or more of the following traits would be a cult: 1) Claims of being the only "true faith" while attacking all others. 2) Paranoia such as unfounded claims of persecution, conspiracy theories, etc. 3) Attempts to isolate members from mainstream society. 4) When the group focuses on a few main individuals such as a local preacher regardless of theology. 5) The group controls the personal habits of members to the point of regulating what books to read, what to wear, etc. 6) Rejection of reason. Claims such as we never went to moon, the earth is 6000 years old (all science is a satanic/atheist plot, see #2.), Holocaust denial, etc.
Maybe it's debatable, but they're still wrong if they say they're a "Christian" religion. Also, I like the second definition because it makes almost every religion into a cult. The SBC definitely employs #s 1, 2, and 6. Also possibly #s 3 4 and 5;)
However, to stay on thread topic, both of those definitions would classify the Church of JC of LDS as a cult.

For some reason I bet that the folks at Mail.com Corp wouldn't just hand over their domain to SpamHaus.
I would change "The Internet is powered by open source" to "Open Source powers the Internet" and I would have fewer words!!

So you slipped and admitted that you are a BOFH by telling us that you use WORN (Write Once Read Never) technology for your users?
but what if the program is altered to not delete itself?
You totally stole that idea from a virus on the X-files television show that had its own T1 connection and lived in a trailer!
well, if you don't know where you are, there isn't much chance of you finding something else near where you don't know you are now, is there?
"But the computer said that he was a terrorist!!"
Hey, at least it's a good reason to not let people borrow my computer whenever I'm not using it at a gaming party!

Man, you need to leave Mr. Shatner alone when he's trying to make a point!
seriously...
And what's the point of SlashHot anyway?

That's what a first person shooter like Quake III is for. Almost the whole point of the RPGs is to gain items and build up your character over time.
Sounds like a job for Mac on Linux!

If you don't find that page to be convincing, it's pretty easy to find other information by searching for Mormon cult on Google.
