What was that supposed to represent? A universe with an outside pull and spin with a single large mass in the middle? Tell him to put a firecracker in his planet and watch it try and form solar systems.;)
Then there is the long history of sendmail relay installs, kernel exploits, apache exploits, etc that had to be manually patched via someone in systems administration keeping track of bugs and current versions of every package installed.
My last job as a system admin involved tracking down the source of their virus problems. It turns out, samba shares were where 100% of them were hosted because the previous admin thought the same way. It turns out, the samba share WAS propagating the spread of the virus infestation passively by infecting a client when they opened a file then infecting every other file that client opened on the server.
ClamAV on the Samba shares as well as a strict workstation virus update policy resolved this problem. All of the Windows servers had antivirus on them all set up for automatic updates.
Something else that bugs me about the "we're doing it for enterprise customers" argument -how many different versions of Vista are there? Isn't the whole idea that the business/enterprise versions would have different default settings and configurations than home versions?
What's going on?
Enterprise installations are most likely going to have their own set of ports they connect to and what they deny. If this is on by default and you have...say...your own software management that comes in on port 12345 to configure applications and the firewall rules...well...you can't until you walk over there and turn off the firewall.
No, it is not a drug-addled fat gasbag whore of the neocons.
Wow you're pretty defensive when his name comes up. Did he hit on something that hit home with you or something? I listen to right and left wing talk shows all the time. People like him and others on the right fill in the blanks and help you rationalize your own decisions. Details are always left out in national media and you shouldn't allow yourself to be spoon fed only news that doesn't make you angry. That goes for either side. The best rule of thumb, if half the news doesn't fit into 'I don't care' or 'That pisses me off and is so wrong', then you're listening to news biased to fit your profile.
Norton Personal Firewall and a couple of others do that. I like being able to click 'allow only once' for things like an install script or something that will only access once. No need in wasting a line in the ruleset for something that won't happen again nor will I want it to automatically do again.
Could it be that splitting Vista into many different versions means that they can have many different price points, and hence, they can make more money?
Or maybe...home users can spend less money if they don't need all the bells and whistles high end users need? And what's wrong with a company making money?
So does that also mean that since iptables is very leanient on outbound connections by default that Linux is anti-security? I'm a huge Linux fan and make my living working with it, but statements like this only hurt the image of anti-MS people.
If you look closely, they're the ones pushing to start Armaggaedon. Why do you think Bush and company are trying to start wars in the Middle East?
Where are you getting your news from? Clinton attacked Iraq more than once. The "wars" aren't about pushing to start a battle in a valley named Armageddon over control of Palestine at all. One was against terror cells that attacked us on 9/11 and the other was taking out a mass murderer who openly used WMDs against his own people. If it were on my soil and my family was being shot for not agreeing with a dictator I didn't have a chance to vote against, I would want someone to do something about it too.
I know the right wings, they helped get the Patriot Act pushed through.
Too much left wing propaganda for you...bleh. Vote tally here
Russell D. Feingold has the only (D) no vote and Mary L. Landrieu (D) didn't even bother showing up. Everyone else on both sides voted yes.
I've got tons of Democrats who spoke openly of WMDs in Iraq since 1991 who denied they ever did it after the Iraq war started as well. Maybe if something were done about terrorists during the 8 year Democratic reign, 9/11 wouldn't have happened. Instead, they took flight school for 8 years right under their noses. Now that we want to do something people just whine about it.
Drivers licenses and social security numbers are not implanted on or under your skin, such as I *think* the bible hints the 'mark of the beast' would be.
Forehead or wrist I think is what it says. That wouldn't be a name, SSN, DL#, etc either. It is also required in order to make any type of purchase so that rules out most of the above as well.
Unfortunately I couldn't get to TFA so I was unaware it was in NZ.
Thanks for the info. Altho I still don't like the idea of making a profit off of someone elses freeware app. Selling it as a turn-key set would mean they are supporting it as well.
I thought Honda was ceasing production of hybrids. I'm wondering if this style is an attempt at trying another style that will be more successful. Battery powered cars are great but even salesmen shy away when you ask what replacement batteries will cost down the road. Even AA batteries aren't cheap so I can't imagine what those would cost.
No but these people need to look at the zap2it guide information download terms of use. They can't sell something for profit that downloads from their free service.
Most places I've been to require only 2 people to get into the HOV lane. Your 2 seater would be just fine but you need a passenger.
I understand where you're coming from with the SUVs but I'm pretty sure Mum + baby Tarquin in a 2 seater would be more dangerous when they can't see out of the rear windows from all of the groceries, baby bags, etc piled up behind them in that tiny car.
I drive a Dodge Ram 1500 and get about 20 mpg. The flip side of the coin is that those little 2 seater guys can't seem to see this massive blue wall next to them and try to switch lanes by clipping my bumper. This ends up with me hitting the breaks and a pendelum effect ensues behind me where traffic becomes stop and go. At least the bigger vehicles aren't weaving through traffic causing this to happen all the time. They really can't if traffic is tight enough.
I used to have a job in a really bad location for afternoon traffic. Leaving at 5pm meant getting home at 6:30pm. However, leaving at 6:00pm meant getting home at 6:30pm. Luckily this was the.com days and we had beer and snacks in the break room. 1 or 2 beers...something to eat...a deck of cards...we easily got through that hour at work. Getting home with your entire paycheck was another story though.
I too aplaud this study and wonder how much of his employers time was spent creating this report.
The first thing that came to my mind was how some of our guys who consistantly come in 20 mins late are constantly coming up with reasons and traffic reports for it. Leaving early will never make you get to work later if you take the same route. It usually doesn't take long to find the "sweet spot" time to leave for work. If you miss it by as much as 5 minutes, it can have a drastic change in arrival time if you're coming in to work with the rest of the crowd.
Myself...I get to work at 7am and drive down one back street through 3 red lights. 6:45 is usually more than sufficient to beat that one other car I usually see;)
Even before mpeg, I was using procomm in dial-up to view gif's of um....trees and stuff...yeah....as they came in. Interlaced gifs made the whole preview process twice as fast.
"Problem is, Burst did it years BEFORE Quicktime, Akaimi or anyone else."
And lots of other people did it before Burst. Caching and loadbalancing are intrinsic to the field of network services.
There is a simple answer to this. The Cisco (or whoever they use) manufacturers that perform load balancing and fast data transfer need to go in, remove their gear, reimburse them, and say they do not want to risk infringing on their patent of allowing large data transfers at high speeds via load balancing. Oh yeah I guess the same goes for whoever they use for email, ftp, http, etc. Everything they use that matches this that they did not write needs to be removed. Offer them a 1M max file size dial-up until they design their own equipment to fit the needs of their patent.
This will severely impair the independent engineering of new hardware peripherals capable of working with windows, and in addition will cause a major problem for people trying to make hardware emulators like deamon tools.
Uh....you guys do know there are SDKs for Microsoft in which they get copies of the OS before anyone else to develop on...right? People like Dell don't just blindly write drivers for a new OS before even seeing it...
I expect one of two things to happen:
either new antitrust cases are filed, (and promptly thrown out when they realize they CAN get a copy to develop with
or the pc/software market gains barriers which cause stagnation to the point it threatens the viability of the majority perceived "PC" as anything more than a delivery device for major cartel vendors.
I hear that all the time on slashdot....yet....nobody here would have a problem getting a pc without Windows installed on it. I've never bought one that did have it installed.

Are we certain its a planet, what if its a alien spaceship?, it says

Has everyone forgotten Star Trek the Motion Picture? That sounds like V ger to me.
Linux virus list
The following are viruses in the Linux Group:
Linux.OSF.8759
Linux.RST
Worm.Linux.Adm
Worm.Linux.Cheese
Worm.Linux.Mighty
Worm.Linux.Ramen
Worm.Linux.Slapper
Then there is the long history of sendmail relay installs, kernel exploits, apache exploits, etc that had to be manually patched via someone in systems administration keeping track of bugs and current versions of every package installed.

Also, there is no cloak of evasion. There is a ring of evasion, though.
Don't make me use my gauntlets of nuclear explosion on you. I've got the squirting ring of tobasco sauce on too.

No but these people need to look at the zap2it guide information download terms of use. They can't sell something for profit that downloads from their free service.
Are you implying that Americans will just sit back and let that happen in the first place?
Yes, they usually do
Everyone seems to be reading only left wing news if you don't know about the right wing fight against this that has been going on for years.
Can't you find another city in the U.S. to make fun of and be a boogyman for white suburban fear? The Detroit cliche is getting a little old.
Hey...any town full of 300 lb Lions is dangerous.
It could be worse. I went to Michigan and someone there asked me if I rode a horse to school or work in TX. Cliches will never die.
At least the guy talking about Detroit was kidding. This guy was quite serious and embarassed.
