Corporations are by law now being forced to sign off their financial statmens. Maybe its time for IT Security Auditors and the like to have to do the same. I know many will frown on this idea but IT security is no longer (and really never has been) only an "In-House" issue.
Just my 2 cents.
NO. I can see the -1 Flamebits now, but lets be hoenst here. People give the american govt. a lot of crap, but I think its our big buisneses that cause the negative view of america. Yes that includes the dirty "O" word, OIL. I guess many can agrue that the lobby power of these companies corupt the govt and it is in the end their fault. So lets start a new thread, which came first Big Buisness or Bad Govt? I think they are twins.:)
Acording to the Facts Page, its capacity is Approximately 1,500 riders per hour. I'm not sure how this was calculated, but being its a 20sec ride that should hold true.
"The creation of the fax network was the first time this happened, but it won't be the last. WiFi hubs and VoIP adapters allow the users to build out the edges of the network without needing to ask the phone companies for either help or permission. Thanks to the move from analog to digital networks, the telephone companies' most significant competition is now their customers, because if the customer can buy a simple device that makes wireless connectivity or IP phone calls possible, then anything the phone companies offer by way of competition is nothing more than the latest version of ZapMail. "
The entire article makes a lot of assumptions most of which make no sense. But this paragraph being the most ridiculous IMO. There is a reason why products like Lindows is doin well. Mainly the majority of users on the internet don't know how/care to know how or want to do most of these things them selves to get online. This in no way compaers to zapmail. The alterantive was a very easy soloution and it was hardware only. Many people don't want to have to setup hardware and software to get a service. They want it commeing from the OEMs ready to go. The fax machine was a simple matter of pluging it into the wall. WiFi is all that simple (maybe to some). A horrible comparison and overall FUD aimed at Telcos that won't work.
Don't read anymore if you havn't read the article.
I jusr love the fact that they are still not willing to scrap DNF.
I can here them chanting in the office now...."Keep hope alive"
for the article:
"In the end all that matters is the quality of the game," he continued. "So, lessons have been learned, and progress is being made, and we're working as quickly and quietly as we can. You're completely justified in calling us 'turtleware,' at the very least, but the release date is still 'when it's done.'"
This is a great first step in avoiding complications, however the problems are caused by human error. They have not solved that problem if "Doctors enter prescription details directly into the pharmacy computer." Adding some sort of check&balance to this system would greatly reduce the change of prescription error related illnesses.
The article mentions nothing about pricing though. How much is this going to cost? Also it would be nice to know if they were planing any MMORPG stuff. This whole idea of paying a monthly fee to play a game is a tad on the ridiculous side but I guess they do have to support it.
You name and information about you is linked to more things than you think. I do agree with you about your lack of spam. I keep another mailbox (like most) to subscribe to web sites. But you can't "travel to an arab country and back (from Canada - with a canadian passport), and nobody would know.". No one maybe intrested in your travel plans at the moment, but if the need arose to find out when and where you went. That information CAN and would be available.

No matter how much fun work can be, there is a reason it is still called Work and not Recess!

Maybe for "Total Recall 2". That would make this article remotely relevant to the /. crowd.
