No. Dotted-decimal notation is the only acceptable way to represent an IPv4 address in a URI according to RFC 3986. That RFC even specifically mentions that many implementations that process URIs make use of platform-dependent system routines, such as gethostbyname() and inet_aton(), to translate the string literal to an actual IP address and that may allow ways around filtering software.
If it is explicitly against the RFC then browsers shouldn't allow it.

After I had yet another Western Digital harddrive die making an 8/11 or 72% failure rate over 5 years, I just ordered parts for a new computer including a hardware RAID from Newegg yesterday.
For $1,829.90 to make a 7 drive hardware RAID 6 array with 1 hotspare, but it seems I went with a lot higher quality parts than they did. And I included the price of the controller...
After my horrible experiences with consumer Western Digital drives (6x 250GB PATA and 2x 500GB SATA dead in the last 5 years), I wasn't about to touch these new consumer 2TB "Green" drives or the cursed Seagate 1.5TB drives so I went with the more expensive HE103UJ's. I hope they are worth it since this will be my first experience with a RAID. In the past I just used everything as separate drives since they weren't purchased all at once and I've paid greatly for that mistake.
It's not an ULTRA CHEAP RAID but I think it should be a fairly high quality one at least.
If this was suppost to fix widescreen I still want to know why I'm forced to play in widescreen even after getting this update on my Xbox360? I'm using the VGA cable connected to a fullscreen LCD and using a fullscreen resolution of 1024x768 but the game is still in widescreen leaving me with big black bars on the top and bottem.... Why did they only fix the FOV for the whiny brats but not fix this. A wider FOV but still being stuck with letter boxing is going to make everything look even smaller since my LCD is only 20" and letter boxing reduces the viewable area down to about the size of a 17-18" widescreen which don't even exist because they're stupidly small. I've actually noticed this with a lot of games but Bioshock is one of the few games that its so noticeable that its annoying and detracts from the gameplay.
Many universities were involved with the early development of the internet or were early adopters of it. As a result a good number of the ~120 class A subnets are owned by universities giving them up to 16,777,214 public IP addresses.
Yeah its already there, its called the technology that prevents you from fast forwarding through the FBI warning. I've seen a few DVDs that (I assume) use the technology that prevents you from fast forwarding through the FBI warnings to force you to watch the ads at the beginning, and one of them had almost 10 minutes of ads. On the upside though, after putting the DVD into my computer, I could skip the ads the same way I skip the FBI warnings, by pressing next. It would be nice if whoever decided to force (although somehow I doubt there was much forcing) DVD player manufacturers to include the method that prevents skiping the FBI warnings would also force DVD publishers/manufacturers to only use that method for the FBI warnings.
I really need to build an HTPC for my family since software will almost always be able to circumvent hardware protection.
I hope this doesn't end up like that one did. I did some checking after that article and for less than $50 you got unlimited transfer ammount but you could not run ANY servers under ANY circumstances, or you could have unlimited restrictions on running servers but be limited to 4GB per month and something like $1 per GB over that. (I do not live anywhere near Seattle and have never talked to anybody with this service, I just felt like checking into it) Still some of us wouldn't mind the paying for extra GB used but even with 15Mbit fiber I know a lot of us would probably forget about watching our GBs and run up a bill more than $100 a month just because we want to be able to run servers.
So IMHO for Verisons new service to be sucessful they need to get it rolled out very fast, unlike what they have done with DSL (I can see my Verison CO from my house yet DSL has only been available for a year and at shitty speed/price compared to cable which was also late getting rolled out here(available for about 3 years)), they need to in no way restrict what you can and can't legally do (as in running servers), and they need to have no limit on transfer amounts. Otherwise, I'd most likely stick with my cable or check into the much more expensive DSL plans from other providers if possible.
As far as what other posts have said about the added speed not helping if the rest of the backbone or, as i think it will end up being, other peers not being able to keep up, if on standard cable now you can max out your upload on 1 torrent and get "ok" speeds, dont think 2Mbit is going to help your speeds that much unless you upload to every single client other client on that torrent because if you give 2MBit upload to 1 client they're going to get it damn fast but they'll only beable to give you 256-512KBit. This service will defently expand the potential for peer(you)-to-multiple-peer(everybody else) and mulitple-server-to-client(you). If anybody ever does get a 30Mbit download on this service before it becomes mainstream I will be shocked since with 3Mbit I usually get 20KB/s from most free game files(updates/patches) download sites and ocasionaly 350KB/s from major company sites.
I'm currently a highschool senior at a vocational school that provides laptops for every student, about 2000 students total (junior and senior only school). The laptops provided for each student at my school would probable beg to be given to a 6th grader rather than having windows xp installed on it considering its an IBM thinkpad 390e which has a 300mhz p2 and 64MB of ram. This years juniors got IBM thinkpad A22e's and those only have 800mhz celerons and 128MB of ram. All these laptops are all runing Win98 because they just cant handle win2k or winxp without being bogged down so bad theyed be unuseable. OfficeXP boges them down enouth as is (ever see somebody type an entire page before the first character was displayed on the screen).
I dont see them getting 130000 NEW dell laptops for every 6th grader, its way to expensive compared to used/refurbished equipment.
Also, with just highschool juniors and seniors the IT department is constantly busy repairing or reimaging laptops because either hardware fails or acidents happen. I'd hate to work at a large school where every 6th grader has a laptop.
And even though our laptops cant handle winxp, weve had debian, knoppix, and gentoo running great on them =)
heh silly russian needs money for games yet u just got a new stereo for ur car, thats great man and i know u can get the games for free too even on ur 56k
You say that the Ford Pinto is an example of a car sucking compared to a reliable Nissan. Now I wonder how much you really know about the Ford Pinto. Sure you know that there was a design flaw with the placement of the gas tank. There are many other cars that also have that problem, but just not as big of a problem (and hell all those imports that these morons are lowering by as much as 5 inches have a better chance of geting the gas tanks punctured by something). But the thing you probibly dont know about the Ford Pinto is that is was one hell of a reliable car. Sure my moms Pinto was so rusted she had to get metal plates welded to the doors to keep the water out, sure she had to get a big steal plate welded behind the seats to protect everybody in the car, sure it started up just fine when it was barried so deep in snow during the blizzard of '78(?) that it couldnt be seen even though my dads truck didnt start and it wasnt covered in much snow at all.
When my mom was looking to buy a new Ommi GLH in '84 the conversation with the salesman was rather amusing (I've been told). It was something along the lines of 'So whats stoping you from buying this car', 'My Pinto still runs', 'Tell me you address, I'll bring my shotgun'. The comment was considered amussing be cause thats just about what it took to 'kill' a pinto. At the age of 12, my moms '72 pinto was still running fine but she sold it for a n '84 Omni GLH (Goes Like Hell), but it wasnt officialy a GLH because even though it had the exact same engine there was one cosmetic difference that prevented it from officialy being classifyed as a GLH model.
I'll still stick with my, rare copper colored (only produced from factory in that color for 3 months, '96 Saturn SL, which I can get 0-60 in the 7's easy, 6's if I'm trying.
When my mom used to work at the local United Methodist church as the secratary we order a copy of Office 2000 Premium from this website called UMCom.org where churches can get software for low price. Since the church didnt have a cc at the time we payed for it ourselfes and they reimburst us the $99 it cost for this MUCH more expensive software.
Now heres the weird part, its 4 cds that all look like they were burned from the labelless CD-Rs then printed on with one of the good labelers that prints directly to the CD. There is no offical MS license included but the CD case has some interesting info on it.

Some may say that the license on the page listed on the case is the license but if that were true everybody could point to that link and say there copy is legal since there is no way to prove thats how you got your copy.
Since then my mom has quit her job at the church and as compensation for the overtime they never paid her, I still have the CDs =) but then they did end up paying her most of the overtime, but Im still keeping the CDs because of how they treated my mom, almost doubling the duties of her job and making her do things that do not fall under the 'church' sectarys duties, ie typing of personal papers.
I am going to have to call him a fool for buying 3 matrix modchips for use in this cluster. The matrix mod chip is just an excuse not to soider and the pogopins on it are not the easyest thing to line up so I think that is why he said moding it was too much work.
Using Cheapmods would have been a much cheaper solution (the matrix is $59 each!). If a MUCH larger cluster was to ever be built I would suggest flashing the TSOP on each board by using the idea behind The Milksop Project.
Also, if a cluster was going to be built for just running linux, I would suggest either unlocking all the drives or buying low capacity drives and imaging 1 drive thats already configured to all the other drives using a standard PC to save time.
