One of the more popular spam products you can buy in the Philippines is called "Ma Ling" it comes from China, tastes pretty good!, but I think I'd prefer never knowing what's actually in it. Definitely NO nutritional information on the can, unless that's what all the chinese text is?!. I'm with you on the 200 gram can equating to 1 serving though.
Just about every drive you can buy in the Philippines (of all places) now has a 5 year warranty as standard... This is from all manufacturers. No difference in price, though the drives themselves both look and feel much more solid when compared to their one year warranty counterparts from last year.
It's been a good three years now since I've had a drive fail, either that's just good luck, or drives are just not as fragile as... that maxtor rubbish.
Finding someone to hop email (for free) is not so easy - the only place I've found that does this and actually works well is http://acc.rollernet.us/ Consider donating some cash to the guys - it's a good service. (I'm not affiliated by the way, just some random nobody)
The problem with your logical and ideal solution is that ISP's can't be bothered unless it is 'hurting' the bottom line so badly that the alternatives are far worse.
Port blocking is vastly easier than the solution you suggest - this is unfortunate since, as you say, the end user might just learn a thing or two.
Isn't the latest trend to hijack and then spam through the ISP's smtp relay anyway?
You can buy those here in the Philippines - complete with laser hologram on the CD itself. Very hard to tell the actual pirated CD apart from the genuine copy. Aside from on the cover where it has large print regarding XPKey or a directory containing working serial numbers. Oh, and copyright (C) 200X Some Catchy Warez Name.
Even DVD's here look the same as the originals - minus the glossy little book inside though.
Every loan I've had (mostly through defence credit unions) has had a little checkbox - something along the lines of 'no consequences in the event of loss of income' - is this not common with housing loans from 'normal' banking institutions? Same deal with a car loan I once had from FordCredit (or something like that)
They could well employ a million of them, but what good are they if I never read their prose (that is if you could call it that)
I may well be the only one doing it, but I seem to automatically tune out to anything mildly looking like a 'web log' - in the new age sense of the custom at least. CTRL-w.
Same old story really, if I want it, I'll look for objectivity, not the rational (or insane) ravings of an opinionated and payrolled microsoft voice. (or any other corporate entity)
You have heard of/sbin/ifconfig yes? It is your friend.
If not, it provides all the networking information that windows does, plus, in typical unix/linux fashion, a million switches and options that will likely never be available in any Microsoft product.
For more detail: user> info ifconfig user> man ifconfig
I'm not sure if your post is one of those 'linux sucks because it can't do.... X....but windows can'
There used to be yes. Haven't seen it since way back in 1996/7 though. Used to run it on an Ultra 10 - found it on one of the sun support CD's if memory serves.
No idea if it's still being maintained, though I suspect not.
This beast takes care of the mission critical billing, timing, routing, SMS and a thousand other things, all in a single little packet switched channel. It's a small box with nice flashing LED's.
It is perhaps as common in telecommunications now as McDonalds is a household name.
At least SCO knew about IBM using SVR4 on POWER, I never could get caldera running on anything so esoteric as electricity though. I had to read through the cheap book supplied in the boxed set, then barely get it running with my own human generated bio-chemical and electrical imagination unit.
Logic would tend to suggest that the manufacturer who is open handed with respect to data formats should perform better in the market place. If I spent a million dollars on a chip, I would certainly want to make my money back, and then some, this does not mean there would be any need to release a datasheet for the chip however.
Correct, but adblock will not stop you being hammered (the first time at least) by those website designers who assume everyone has a 10 Mbps link - that is I guess pretty much what the parent was trying to say.
Another handy plugin is RIP (remove it permanently) http://rip.mozdev.org/ Does wonders for those annoying iframe banners and css based adverts that adblock and flashblock don't quite reach.
Why is it that every scrap of paper or stone tablet that happens to be dug up must always be attributed to religion?
In a thousand years time from now will people still claim similar recognition for recovered hard drive data (Web Logs)
Some redneck bitching that his truck caught fire on the I95 - might be a funeral pire for some exalted leader.... While not only limited to one group, religious people do tend to have wide interpretations.
Where are all the shopping lists, doodling, drawings of children... In Australia we have aboriginal art dating back 30 odd thousand years, grafiti, animals, hand outlines of children, all kinds of stuff. Not all of it could be considered religious, but is still precious none the less!
That approach would not generate a positive revenue stream. There are millions of discreet networking links across the planet, but how would the gamer connect? The average internet connection is a mixture of different standards out to the ISP, after that it's mostly bog standard packet switchers - tcp/ip on HDLC (or similar framing)
What you are suggesting is a good idea, but not very practical considering the additional hardware required to make it work. There might be some other way to rig it up on the existing backbones though it would have limited support since each provider tends to do his or her own thing with the data going across their wires.
Hate to be a bummer on your idea though. It's good, but how would it work?
They do supply source, but you have to pay for access - the scheme he has set up is valid, does not violate the GPL, only James does tend to be a little bit of a cry baby when his subscribers sell out and publish anyway. He cancels the account and bans the IP address of the offender (if he can figure it out, otherwise I think it's just a dart board approach with a list of random subscriber IP's) And he is (with proof) known to intimidate people with what amounts to threats of violence through email.
Not someone I would give money, but others do (for some odd reason)
The odd thing is - I live and work in the far east, have done for 5 years now, most of the attacks and probes I see come from the far west:-)
I used to whine about the koreans way back, but a lot of the mail that makes it here into asia does tend to come from english speaking (often US netblocks) countries.

While it 'may' be attributable to the internet, could it not be more likely linked to age, diet, and numerous other physiological changes.
Ok, I personally blame slashdot in full, though the things that the article submitter describe are common to humanity in general, not just geeks.
Yeah, but then you only get ONE penguin when the kernel boots up...
Encryption keys multiple penguins
Hmmm, tough choice.

The 'bear in the big blue house' calls it 'Luna' - ok ok, so you probably don't watch early morning childrens television....

What are you trying to say here? Are you seriously telling me that Star Wars was not a series of documentaries? Please... :-)

No offence intended in either respect.

The only simple solution to that is to reduce the number of colours in the image - 256 appears to allow for transparency to work as expected.

Weird that.
Sorry, two seconds after (or before) I post, 5 other people say the same thing. Mark me redundant, apologies.
