" This theme is beat to death. So called "virus" require answer "Yes" three times to be installed."
It was the same for computers 10 years ago. Now they can infect you without your knowledge by going down wire. How long before our nation's high schools are one big spambot farm?
If we are going to put computers in phones, we need to put firewalls and anti-virus protection in them with the ability to be updated. Which is a security hole itself. In terms of computer technology, it is 1995 in cell phone land. Somewhere, some 1337 h4x0r is working on a way to slide his technological penis into the cell phone vagina and make babies.
Canada is starting to resemble Orwell's 1984. There are all kinds of things you can't say there now. I thought they were supposed to be "liberal". Do they have the speakers in the streets yet?
Oh no!!! NO!!! This is a serious blow for Linux. My favorite OS is laid spread out on the altar of commercialism for the whole world to see like the Whore of Babylon. The thrust of its knife will be long and deep, deeper and deeper, thrusting until Linux lays spent and quivering on...
It's not their fault. The email attachment that held the study kept getting dumped in the Junk Mail folder when they sent it.
No wait, the Internet was....busy. Yeah, that's it. That's why the study is late. They tried to send it but the Internet was running slow. They finally moved from Kermit to Zmodem and it picked up enough to send.
Including a firewall would be an admission that hacking Windows boxen was even remotely possible. You don't want to risk scaring the herd into a stampede by shouting "firewall".
I am absolutely shocked that the FBI doesn't already own and control the site to troll for anarchists. Everytime I see a site that preaches radicalism, my first reaction is "Fed".
I have a friend who worked undercover investigating racist groups and he said he would look around the room and try to figure out who was connected to which agency. For all they knew, they ALL were cops.
Oh hell no. If the computer dies, you call the IT guy. Then you lament about the lack of support and "Why does this always happen?" until he threatens to take away your admin rights that you need to download and install all the CRAP you find on the internet and so you can run all those cute flowery shee-ut that people send you in email or those cool screensavers that you have 200 copies in various directories on your machine so you can show your coworkers the cute bunnies and puppies until the next cool trojan-bearing screensaver comes along. When he threatens to take away the admin rights like he SHOULD then you hang up, reboot and mutter to everyone about how bad you have it.
" What if the spammer had this same technology? Would the internet get stuck in an infinite loop and go to 100% usage?"
No more calls, we have a winner.
Why not just offer a service that acknowledges to spammers that they have reached a viable recipient? This is better than the old "Click here if you want to get off this mailing list".
For every 3 spam messages, I get a user saying they aren't getting their legitimate mail because the spam filter is blocking it.
The British had the right idea. Find the spammers and coil their intestines on a bobbin in broad daylight.
I was in English major in college until I changed to Info Systems. I discovered the Internet in 1994. I started messaging and found out that my speling and grammer weren't where they needed to be at. Luckily, I was hanging out in Flame areas where people were quick to point out flaws in your message. It was sink or swim when it came to speling, grammer or avoiding metaphors. I heartily endorse using computers as long as someone or something corrects all mistakes. Especially ones involving puncuation.
I bet the Bush Administration was trying to wipe out a nearby gay bar with a laser weapon and missed. Instead, it struck that light pole. Ole W's prolly got him a Death Star up there in space that he's using to shoot everyone who doesn't live in Jesusland. And I'm pretty sure Australia didn't vote for Bush. So they are gonna get it for sure.
And don't try to tell me different cause I'uns went to college. Well, NC State anyway.
Not always true. I worked with programmers who worked 60-70 hours a week because they were married to their job. The rest of us pulled 40 but these guys were there all the time. They lived, ate and slept their job. Their job was their only source of esteem. They literally had nothing else.
When these people get promoted, LEAVE!!! They will expect you to have the same obsession.
I worked at companies that were sweat shops and I discovered something amazing. There were people who worked the long hours and people who refused to work them. And they had the same opportunities after the project was over. There was no real incentive to work the long hours. The company did not reward those who played the Slave.
BEIJING (Reuters) - China executed four people, including employees of two of its Big Four state-owned banks, for fraud totaling $15 million, the state Xinhua news agency said Tuesday.
Great. I can hold more spam. My Yahoo account is almost useless from the weight of spam in it. It's like a magnet for every weird spam too. I get spam for penis shrinking, failing stocks to buy, expensive generic drugs and elderly Amish women pics.
That's what I get for subscribing to that Campus Crusade for Habakkuk list
Most AMD chips are already priced at or below Celerons. Why do they need a cheaper chip? Celerons are much cheaper than their Intel counterparts. I can't see these chips being prices low enough to dog the real deal.
In the old days, computer always cost $5,000. You want a computer? $5k. Now you can get them for $1k for business use, less than that for home use? So AMD is going to offer a chip for $25 less? What's the point?
With that kind of pipe, you could enroll in school, get a dorm room and start your own ISP. That would pay for college and recoup that $250 for the card. Or even more for the router and such.
It's a devious crock but nobody has been forced to work while ill.
I don't know. If you told me I would lose health care coverage if I called in sick, I would put that in the "forced" column. I think we are going to end up debating the definition of "is" here.
Starbucks coffee is burnt. Virginia Tech has their own coffee roaster and you can tell the difference betweek mass-burned Starbucks coffee and selected roasting styles for different beans. Give me small town coffee shoppes any day. Of course I am a tea drinker so what do I know.

I'll keep waiting for Day of Defeat for HL2. I can't stand all that hippie crap in HL2

A study shows that 95% of delivery dates are picked from thin air.
The other 5% are based on a arbitrary date from a customer who knows nothing about system development.

"Yes, but how did it taste???"
Like chicken. Everything tastes like chicken. That's why I don't eat chicken. You have no idea what you are eating.

But I'm not bitter. Nope.
I wish they would hand out aspirin and Sucrets.
All I got was a rock.

I just burned a whole set of Core 3 CD's.
I burned 9 tons of info onto a box and it looks nekkid as a picked bird. Fedora is the antiMandrake.
