    Though domain naming has become more relaxed, in the case of john.com, the COMMERCIAL usage of john should override for .com addresses.

  3. THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES WITH WAREZ on Anti-piracy Vigilantes Tracking P2P Users · · Score: 1

    Yeah so, yet another program calls home, and the tin foil hat brigade come out - it does nothing dodgy, and serves them right for wanting a dodgy serial number.

    People whinging and complaining about this piece of software should perhaps go out and buy the game.

    Your all lucky it DIDN'T format your drives ;)

    I downloaded the demo, and cant wait till payday :D

  10. Re:Flight issues at small scale? on World's Smallest Homebrew RC Unit · · Score: 4, Interesting

    isnt it to do with the range of motion the servos have than the full sized control units?

    TO miniturise them you can only get a preset range of positions.

    I am only speculating, but it seems plausable after the mini RC cars I have owned, my original large 1/12 scale had variable steering, but the smaller ones all seem to operate simply between straight ahead and full lock.

    (Same person as previous AC)

    I just noticed when rereading my posting and your comment - the domain postfixing[domain.com] does NOT show in the body of your text above (the post comment page) - I almost did a double take and thought I was going mad.

    time for me to take a wander over to slashcode and see if its a known feature :)

    cool thanks :)

  13. Re:Not Safe at Wal*Mart on BudNet Tracks Your Suds · · Score: 1

    we have a large walmart store near us in England (Manchester) - something funny I noticed on every single trolley whilst I was there a few weeks ago.

    The right hand front wheel has a larger casing - just large enough for a small battery, a few sensors and a transmitter/RFID emittor.

    I was musing that (and got lost in the thought as I spun my child around in an empty isle) whether they can monitor which isles are busiest and just where everyone is going. It makes ideal sense, and I would love to tap into data like that.

    If anyone knows more about these special trolleys let me know :)

  14. Re:In favor of Classical Music. on Computers Replace Musicians In West End Musical · · Score: 1

    a good musician does not need to create his own songs or music. In just the same way a motor racing driver does not need to design his own car.

    A Musician can bring spirit and life to a compilation and can carry a performance to greater heights.

    On the subject of DJ's, a good DJ is akin to a standup comic, who will have a mostly pre-defined routine, but follow cues from the audience to make the performance truly unique.

  15. Re:Seen IBM's new linux commercial? on Linux Going Mainstream · · Score: 1

    I love the advert on the "More television slots" link - the large one with Linux growing learning (its the top one on that page) - it makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.

    Its a very powerful advertisement run :)
    thanks for the link to the others

    Since I live in England, none of MY taxes paid for it, yet I have installed the software and enjoy looking through it.

    Why on earth would you want to reverse engineer it yourself, do YOU have a set of probes ready to send?

    Sometimes talking about Open source for the sake of it is irrelivent, I have gotten closer to Mars than I probably ever will in my lifetime, and this software helped me do it - Thank you JPL :)

  19. Re:Not filters on Bill Gates Forecasts Victory Over Spam · · Score: 1

    Microsoft released a Blaster cleanup tool which apparantly is part of Windows Update, and has been downloaded over 1.4million times since its release. Whilst this is of course much too late, I believe its a step in the right direction.
    The story is here: The Register)

    Microsoft are damned if they do, and damned if they dont release any kinds of updates, if they dont release, they are accused of arrogancy and corporate greed and abusing their monopoly whilst leaving customers vulnerable, or on the flipside if their patch breaks a few none standard systems because it wasnt tested properly then we bitch at them still.

    I personally think a lot of the regs in here are putting their money into this. I know I would if I had any spare.

    It seems like whilst we all realise just what is GOING to happen, we can also see the suspense building up, and knowing that nothing is going to change instantly.
    I see the stock collapsing however before this court hearing on the 23rd.

    SCO are about to go SuperNova :)

  22. Re:Internet Death Penalty on Spammers Not Complying With CAN-SPAM · · Score: 2, Informative

    SPF records CAN work - consider if the majority of ISPs in your own country start using them. 99% of your email comes from your own friends and family within the country, and would be catered for. The rouge ISPs that DONT publish the records can all go to hell as long as my friends can contact me.

    I realise that for certain public addresses SPF wont work, since the idea is to hear from unknown customers no matter where they are, but for the normal user it should cut down on a greater majority of it.

    LOL

    My ISP (NTL in the UK) recently slapped a hard 1GB per day limit on folks, and to be honest it HAS changed my habits, sure I still go over the limit, but I dont keep things like the radio or my satellite feed running most of the time.

    I think its simply a case of moderation :) we were all acting like fat kids in a candy shop - grabbing everything we see and hoping the owner doesnt catch us ;)
