It's a data parsing error (missing that closing < makes it read stuff from other mailboxes and print that back inappropriately) Why it can even read past the end of your message is a mystery to me. They might be using very specialized memory managers in their codebase that use buffers in specific ways, however, which would make this possible. I wouldn't call that a buffer overrun. It's a parsing error which exposes read access to some kind of application-managed memory in an unexpected way.
Linux with Samba 3 can be a 2000 PDC/kerberos KDC/LDAP auth server. However, while it can enforce GP, you still need a windows-based box to create and manage the GPOs.
Keep in mind chips these days have all the transistors "facing" up so they can be mated to a substrate that removes heat. Creating a sandwich of components is probably not a good idea unless you completely change the manufacturing process, using 3d "pathways" to conduct heat and signals in and out of the core. Quite a bit more difficult to model and produce.

I started saying it after hearing it in the refrain to this song. But I wonder if it's a common expression; the alliteration + imagery is a powerful combination.
Basically, the other people in your tracker group sort of give you download leases; when you are able to upload X amount to them they will honor X*Y requests from you. You take whatever you need from every seeder, and then use that to fill in pieces missed by non-seeders so you can get download leases from them as well (seeders don't tit-for-tat IIRC). Unless the files are very large and take hours to complete, a tracker group will be upload heavy amongst the finished group, and download heavy amongst the unfinished. I imagine the distribution of upload vs. download over time looks poisson in nature. The real benefits in bittorrent is taking advantage of people who are altruistic and don't take down their client _right_ after it finishes downloading, but leave it on for an hour to help others with an additional non-tit-for-tat download source.
Because other "good" clients won't give the pirate clients the pieces they want. No seeder would run a client that tolerated leechers that didn't tit-for-tat.
that's not what it was DESIGNED to do. Hell, the INTERNET is primarily used to steal stuff, if you want to break it down by percentage. Should the Internet be illegal? No. So why do you care about what bittorrent is used for now? Play up the POSITIVE aspects, not the negative ones. Christ on crutches.
I'm the furthest creature possible from a stereophile, but I don't see what the problem with the Speaker Cable Face Off article is...
I found it very informative, it tells me a few companies are selling overpriced shit (as expected), and it gives you some hard, testable numbers.
I'd prefer to use that "generic" brand that they ranked a runner-up if I had to purchase a large amount of speaker wiring for a new house or something. You have to buy the cable from _somebody_. It's nice to know if some cheaper brand is not going to be particularly crappy.
And the package manager could maintain these files in the env.d directory so that each package can live self-contained, but this one script does everything necessary to make it visible in a user's session.
If the software is supported by the vendor, then it's probably completely self-contained; you could probably run it off CD-ROMs with some path hierarchy trickery and a very barebones linux system. Most package java internally, if used.
OTH, almost all of the software you see that comes with a distribution is OSS. Most OSS software is dependant on other OSS software in a large way. This requires sharing of files. So rather than trying to support multiple versions of a library or audio daemon or whatever, you have one instance of the common component. This way, upgrading that one component will upgrade the experience of all the dependant software.
Similarly you do NOT see the drag-n-drop installation of OSS packages in the Fink environment in OSX, right?
that the working population would scale with the retiring population. Actually, you would expect there to always be proportionally more younger people as a population grows. However, the baby boom upset this relationship and now we're in deep shit.
It's the companies that BUY the information they collect.
Also, there's the little problem that referral-based schemes tend to collapse under their own weight (remember all those referral-based web ad systems back in the late 90s... what ever happened to those?)
Oh, I think they're headed in the right direction. It is neither fragile nor old technology. It's quite refined and well documented, (just in case).
Tapes are convienent media for backup purposes, even today. Balance cost with reliability... you want predicatble access pattern, simple drive mechanism, lots of magnetic surface area...
Please, all caring slashdotters, I ask the following of you: Copy and paste this article as an AC reply every time you see a Roland "Fucky-facey" Piquepaille article. It would remove much AC discussion and it puts quite clearly what so many others have voiced.

I fucking hate this place sometimes. You people disgust me.

Also, the grandparent is wrong. I find that people who argue against religion (in general) are moderated down fastest because that's not "PC".

Yes

Where X is 0 for full backup, 1 for incremental on everything since the last 0, 2 for incremental on everything since 1 or 0, etc.

So no one steals it.

Change the location of _elf_lib to /tmp instead. That'll work.

What would be nice is if distros would include a profile.d that had a script called "env_manage" or something that might work like this:
/etc/profile.d/env.d/*.sh;
/etc/profile.d/env.d/package_name.sh
P ATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/lib: $ORACLE_HOME/bin
for each in
if basename of *.sh is not in USER_BLOCKLIST or the first line contains MANDATORY
source $each;
fi
done
And you'd have a lot of files like this:
For example, maybe oracle.sh
### MANDATORY
ORACLE_HOME=/opt/orahome1
LD_LIBRARY_
PATH=$PATH
export ORACLE_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH
And the package manager could maintain these files in the env.d directory so that each package can live self-contained, but this one script does everything necessary to make it visible in a user's session.
Look.
Commercial software on linux works exactly as you described.
MATLAB? Self contained.
Oracle? Self contained.
Mathematica? Self contained.
StarOffice? Quake3? UT2kx? Clementine? Rational ES?
Self contained.

I don't know... JWZ is fond of it and openstep and I wonder how that's really any different.
OSX? Probably the most expensive OS to own, but then, he's solvent enough to run a nightclub so...
