you know... if the automated system is just gonna turn off the water when hell breaks loose, why not just turn off the water before you go on your long trip?
(I don't know what would happen to a house if the water was turned off for a week or two... i imagine nothing, so long as you remember to turn off the water heater, and to turn everything back on when you get back)
my school's bookstore routinely got copies of office xp for $15... that's really not that expensive and it's not the shity office for teachers and students that has just word and excel.
if you read the question, it's fairly obvious that this is illegitamite. If the poster hadn't mentioned he got it from usenet, it might be questionable, but you just don't get that much legitimate software, etc from usenet.
can you point me to any in orange county(or surrounding counties)? the one i used to go to is a walmart, and the only one i've seen other than that is apparently only showing 'swap meet'
do you know of any such clients for X? I've recently defenestrated my computer, and all of the X based clients were based on the preview pane, so I'm using Pine, which is nice and all, but having more options is always good. (I was using pegasus in windows)
I have my cell phone so I'm reachable, not so I'm reached. If I could get to and from my job with the public transit system in my area, I'd probably use it, but have a car anyhow, so I can go places, but I doubt I would go anywhere very often, so I could save on fuel costs too.
virgin mobile(VMU) has it setup so you have to pay them at least once every 3 months (minimum payment $20), but the value of the old balance doesn't decline. They use a 'cash' balance method, so your balance is the amount of money you've added plus any promotional amounts minus whatever they bill you for usage. So if you manage to make it three months without racking up $20 of usage, your balance isn't penalized, and you can go out in a blaze of usage later.:)
Current rates are $0.25/minute for the first 10 minutes of voice calls in a day, $0.10/minute for minutes after that, and $0.10/minute to send text messages. I think they're also doing a $0.10/day charge to access some of the premium content on their WAP site, but you're not charged per minute for those calls. You're not charged for calls to the voicemail system, unless you call from your VMU phone. To my knowledge, you can't get the phone to browse outside their site, nor can you make data calls without an acoustic coupler (which would be billed as voice calls).
Cause it's sooo hard to go to the drive properties for your burner and uncheck the box that says 'use this device to burn cds' (or whatever, i've defenestrated the computer i use that had xp)
I have Virgin Mobile service on my phone, in the last 60 days, I've used about $20, and that was probably my most active period to date. If you're really good at not using your phone, you can get it down to $20/3 months.
Of course, if you want to talk on your phone, then it's gonna get pretty expensive, pretty fast.
in general yes, in reality, a court can decide a contract is binding... in the case where you have your underage sibling do the dirty work of clicking yes, then i'm pretty sure a court would rule that you might as well have clicked yes yourself, and saved your sibling the trouble.
and if that doesn't work, software is going to start asking you to verify age as part of clicking the EULA, which will be more of a pain in the ass, thanks
You know, I doubt many Canadians would be able to use fifth (or first) ammendment reasoning to get out of this proposed punishment, considering that in Canada, the US Constitution doesn't apply.
Oh, like the ones in Iraq, from the nice planes with the stars and stripes? Yes, it is too bad I don't live in a country that some groups have chosen to target for occupation.
thanks... insults without a name are really hurtful, i'm going to go pull down that shirt right now!
anyhow, i hadn't seen a shirt that implicated the post office (or the us government in general) as proponents of terrorism, so i made a shirt.
as is the case with albums put out by the RIAA and movies put out by the MPAA, if you don't like the policies or the 'art', vote with your $$$. Thanks for bringing more attention to the shirt, it'd be cool if more than three of them are made.
that was an XP enhancement, i believe it was available while XP was still in beta, and yeah it's kinda cool... except that it makes alt-tab take a lot longer (load time for the images), and then what's the point
(unless you have like 20 windows, it was probably faster to alt-tab through most of them regular style than to use the fancy widget)
also, if there is lowered resale value, that means lower property taxes (in states that levy property taxes), which makes the house that much less expensive
if you're gonna tunnel through ssh, you might as well use standard ports for pop/smtp... you could also use ssl instead, since that's way more likely to be supported by your email client
umm... receiving mail on port 25, is not what needs to be justified; sending mail to port 25 is what needs to be justified.
The reason it needs to be justified is that there are legitimate reasons to disallow his connections (spammers), and he has a reasonable solution (user upstream smtp server as a smart host)
I have done this on one machine. Backed the computer up to a samba share, then reinstalled xp and restored from the backup (over smb again). Had to re-activate, but that's not a big deal since I have a legit copy and it activates over the internet without trouble.
I used xp pro, which includes ntbackup by default.
There were some lingering issues where it thought the driver cache was not legit, so everytime i installed something (usually minor like a usb storage device) it would ask for the xp cd, and when i told it no, it'd complain that the driver wasn't signed, but oh well.
The machine in question lacked a floppy drive, or i could have tried the 'automated system restore' thingie, which I'm sure wouldn't have worked due to needing to put the backup on a network drive

use the --perms option to rsync
from the manpage:
"This option causes rsync to update the remote permissions to be the same as the local permissions."

If they are coming, it's almost a certainty (relatively speaking) that you are a goner.
Unless you tunnel through them.

having your sibling do it, in no way resolves you of the legal obligations (if any) of the EULA.
your sibling was acting as your agent, and you are bound by his actions.

have you not heard of binary?
it can be pretty hard to keep counting up to 32k, if you have to read your email to see when to count

how are their rates if you don't want to boot off their network (i like my laptop to boot the os i installed on it, thanks)

I've recently dabled in scsi, and the controller was refered to as an initiator; since you can have multiple initiators on the bus.
there's more to an investment than money.
