The one I remember had a large 'stub' of fibre poking into each room. The stub being about 1cm across pointing into a diffuser. I dont think it had the advantage of UV protection either.
Will a person in panic mode even remember that additional forms of confirmation are not being presented to them? Or will they still just blindly slog thru whatever pages they are presented with and in the end think "My goodness, that was easier than I thought."
..that people will rememeber that they have picked a 'personal picture' to secure a site, when they cant even remember 'Will will NEVER email you to reverify your password or billing information.' when they signed up?
'Back in the day', using a 14.4K modem and a 68k Mac, I remember a website (in Europe IIRC) which allowed you to control a train set with two trains, and 3 sidings. It only had one cam, and wireless wasnt in existance, but they included a clock in the background so you could tell you were truely controlling the train, and not watching a playback of pre-aquired images.
This was around the same time that the guys at MIT had the Pepsi machine wired so they could tell if it was empty, and whether it was worth walking down the hall or not. They also had a 24hr webcam pointed at the coffee machine for the ame reason.
There isnt one single email address 'user@someisp.com' listed by the SPEWS blocklist. SPEWS only lists IP addresses and ranges. And if nobody uses the listings, nobody gets blocked. SPEWS blocks nothing.
Telewest has had almost one million email address blacklisted by an anti-spam firm.
SPEWS does not block email addresses, it lists IP addresses. Its up to admins who use SPEWS to decide whether or not to use the listing to block email coming from those IPs.
If the users in those affected IPs use a legitimate email server, they can still send email to their hearts content. Only people running their own mail servers and direct-to-mx traffic would be affected.
"Apparently judges have found that law enforcement is unbelievably perfect as they rubber-stamped approvals on every single request they received"
Interesting statement, considering the article doesnt say how many applications for wire taps were sought. Only that the number of approved wiretaps increased.
A more accurate picture would be created if they discussed the percentage increase in the number requests that were approved, not just the fiscal increase in the number of approvals.
A number indicating how many applications were deamed to be baseless, and were denied would have helped as well. Otherwise its all just alot of 'OMG OMG BIG BROTHER!!!' fodder.
I know alot of people found the Geoports to be total nightmares. I believe they ended up discovering that the units had bad internal grounding. I must have had one of the few good ones. My biggest disappointment was that they discontinued support for them when 14.4K was dying off. I never heard finally whether a lack of horsepower in the DSP was the reason for the lack of 28.8K or not. Pity, as that was supposed to be the advantage of a software modem. When a new standard arrives, you simply upgrade the software.
'Back in the day' I bought my 840 near the end of its sales life. Bare bones. No HD, no RAM. I bought it as an 'upgrade path' for my 660 and dont remmeber what I paid for it. But I think when I bought my complete 660 system it was just below $3K.
840av clock chipped to 48Mhz baby! Some people got 50Mhz out of them, but then the serial ports got wonky.
My 660 is a 'Centris' model, which IIRC meant it was only 20Mhz from the factory instead of 25Mhz. This too was easily fixed, in fact I believe mine has a 33Mhz clock in it.
There used to be a website that showed how to make wind chimes from hard drives that used the platters. It had 12", 8", 5" and 3" platters for different tones.
THAT was a hard drive wind chime. Of course, finding 12" and 8" platters today would be a major bitch!
Umm... I believe he was refering to Clinton passing a huge pile of environmental reforms -days- before leaving office, and now the Bush administration is repealing them and appearing as anti-environmental/pro-corporation. Bush is -not quite- at point where he will pass a bunch of outrageous bills just to spite the next administration. He's still got three years to live with whatever decisions he makes.
Yeah, this thing could be real fun inside a $home_electronics store. ie: BestBuy, CircuitCity, etc..
-Years- ago, I remember a JVC projection screen TV that had a remote the size of paperback book. From across the store, you could change the channel on every JVC TV in their 'Wall of Television' display.

I could swear I remember a TV news report from the late 80s early 90s where this was being done in one of the new skyscrapers in Japan.

I stand corrected.

14" AV monitor, 32MB RAM, 230MB HD, 2xCDROM, Geoport Modem, KBD, Mouse
I think its 'new' that it is available online. Ive known about the movie on the installation CD since it was released.
My 660 is a 'Centris' model, which IIRC meant it was only 20Mhz from the factory instead of 25Mhz. This too was easily fixed, in fact I believe mine has a 33Mhz clock in it.
My 840av currently stands as a dedicated webcam.
I still have my 660av and 840av. :)
They never look at the real causes, which are people, destroying the planet with their greedy consumerism, and termite farts.

next thread please...
I believe it only refers to him having 'ginger hair'. "His hair was wiry and gingerish and brushed backwards from the temples."

Im sure there are alot of offensive 'Master' and 'Slave' comments in DOS too..
It wont take more than a couple days of monitoring all of that teen angst and drama for the computer to commit suicide.
Easy fix, just drop a LiveCD (Knoppix/Gnoppix/DSL) CD in the in-dash player before you go anywhere.

No, suprisingly it is the alternative fuel (ethanol) producing state of Iowa.
My guess? You will have a seperate 'meter' in you garage, and you will pay an extra tax on the electricity your car consumes.
