My card doesn't appear to have any charges on it. I've sought a new card number anyway. Linode hasn't responded squarely to the allegations in the IRC logs that the decryption/encryption keys to credit cards were stored insecurely.
Their failure to act borders on the laughable, and now they want to read our private communications, presumably so that they can.... wait for it.... yet again, do nothing.
Certainly. Law at QUT pretty much "streams" all their lectures to MP3/WMA. IT lecturers at QUT are useless, I had one tell me he didn't stream his lectures "in case he said something wrong", fearing legal liability. *Rolls eyes*.
Education students at QUT can (for some units) get *video* streams of lectures.
Fantastic really. I wish all units of QUT had compulsory recorded streams.
Oh, and here's a tip if you don't already: Remove silences and speed your lectures up. Goldwave will do this. You can cut a 2hr lecture down to 1hr easily.
Yeah sure, a nix phone, with KDE, great idea. But what's this "user modifiable" stuff? That pretty much guarantees carriers won't sell it. Can you imagine trying to support it when little Johnny can't make a call out?
Doesn't matter that you gave full disclosure that it was a quote. If Apple has the copyright over it, they can control its usage.
It's a copyrighted work, and the author can chose how you use it. Taking it another way, say you copy Windows XP with "full disclosure" that it is a "quote", is that ok?
Naturally, it's hard to state the given law in any given area, considering this is the Internet....
Why is the first post suggesting computers as a way of powersaving? For gods sake, look at things that use the most power first.
I mean, if you're looking at things that use power, don't use driers. Heaters/Aircon, etc will use a heap more power than your computers do (assuming you've nothing out of the ordinary for casual uni students).
Use off peak power if you've got an electronic hot water system, etc etc.
Trying to save a few bucks on computer power when you're spending hundreds on heating is silly.
John Doe was awesome. However, the whole "you die and you learn everything" just doesn't cut it. The final episode was a massive cliffhanger. We can only hope they release more episodes =)
Ooops you're right, my mistake. I did mean the V3 =)
Sure, the RAZR looks good (it's the only half decent Motorola phone I've seen in ages), but it's still miles from being as popular (and hot-selling) as most Nokia models.
People like the Nokia UI. It's simple, and it's what they're used to.
Generally, we've had nothing but problems with the Motorola's we sell and there's very little demand for them, notwithstanding some online review site that shows people's ratings of the phone. It's just not a popular phone.
"Well, considering the Mororola RAZR phone is one of the hottest-selling out there"
I don't think you have a clue as to what is a hot-selling phone. I work in a phone store (by all means I think we're representative of Queensland, Australia) and we struggled to get our only Motorola V300 RAZR out the door.
Motorola is complete crap and have been for years. They're just not a serious competitor against far better offerings from Nokia and other manufacturers.

Microsoft knows what is best for them. The ads make them money. If there was a Microsoft-supported, ad-free, open source client, do you think they'd still want to run the MSN IM service?
ADSL boosters won't help where there is no copper running directly from the dslam to the house. This will not help the situation where someone is on a (non adsl enabled) RIM because that's the only copper available running to their house.

If I had mod points, I'd +1 this.

That Google Spreadsheets made Firefox 1.5.0.5 under Ubuntu crawl. Ick.
I third the recommendation for Namecheap. It's good to see IT companies that care these days.
They're fantastic. I've got 3 domains hosted with them for a few years now, plus my mates' domains. No problems.

Yep, that's the one.

I disagree. You've done little more than make blanket generalisations with little facts.
In Australia, our federal governments generally always deliver their promises. If they fail it is a PR-nightmare.
I'm not sure about other countries, but perhaps your comment hasn't been considered thoroughly.
errr, he didn't actually compare it to cryptoloop or loop-aes. He only mentioned it.
Perhaps you should RTFA.
Simple answer really... You lose your data, that's why the interview tells you to back it all up.
This appears to be the same as linux's cryptoloop (loop-aes, etc), or am I missing something?
It's nothing really special, until it's implemented so laptop users can easily set up an encrypted root filesystem and be able to boot into it easily.

Errr, Gaim is open source...
... say it will cost them 5 billion...
5 billion in profits? After what costs? Better yet, how did they come up with such a figure?
Oh dear. Was that just recited off some "enviro-friendly" website verbati, somewhere?
Do you realise that there are far less eco-unfriendly emissions today than there were 30 years ago?
Perhaps "mankind is ignorant", but posting such an ill-thought out comment is clearly more ignorant.
Try ImageMagik or Kuickshow.

Err, sorry, I screwed up. Seems it's not really a booster, more a miniture, cheaper DSLAM... Tops =)
