Well, a pile of 72 routers at 450000 each will make that li'l pile of more than 30million bucks in bandwith. calculating...
that makes about 3.375 million $per Tbps. That's actually a pretty fair price...
Makes me think of Wargames...
Anyways, as the article stated Linux is a lot easier to troubleshoot. Dunno, but if you've got a couple of hundred computers sitting there waiting for the MS patch to let them boot again it sounds like quite some waste...
hmm, probably superman disguised himself as Bill Gates and did it. Thus it is so much better than this Open Source terrorist stuff that's called Linux.
maybe it's just that the department of treasury figures that spammers support the industry more than they do harm to it. Thus they decided to support the spammers.
yep. quite right. Saying computer games affect human behaviour is like saying that playing football affects human behaviour. although I saw enough football players jump on other people during a game, I didn't notice them doing this when they were interviewed. so, where's the difference between a computer game and a game of football? in both you're in a slightly altered reality, as there are other rules. but once you're out of the game, there are again the real-world rules. and that much should be clear to any sensible human being
Doesn't matter what kind of ball pen you're using. just use the right ink cartridge, like a Senator or the likes. Parker does very nice ball pen ink, it's just a bit expensive. But if you can afford it, there's nothing better than a nice Parker.
Well now, it's a bit late for that now. Just about any Western country I know of introduced a couple of anti-terrorism laws to much the same effect, although the US seem to take the whole thing a bit further. I find it only surprising that there's so little public resistance against it. You know, maybe there will be the same thing happening to a car thief as to the taliban in guantanamo. being in jail for two years without contact to the outside world or a lawyer will certainly cut down on the desire to anything wrong again, won't it? Anyways, I'm just waiting for/. to be closed because of too many unpatriotic possible terrorists on that site.
Right, there are enough things that can be solved with a decent dose of darwinism, among those drug-addicts. Those willing can be saved. But it's a completely different story if the laws allow those in charge to do just about anything they want. This situation is what all those anti-utopian novels were about, that's what the people of soviet russia were enduring. Just that in the US there are way too many people who consider those laws against terrorism nice. Sure, it's nice for right-wings who detest anything that smells even the least bit leftish, like environmentalists or the likes
hey you know exactly one can't trust people who pack up with the French (Quebec).
Anybody who doesn't throw out them Frenchies deserves to be fried because he is a possible Terrorist.
yeah, but that would have meant, that the power providers had to provide money too. All of this could have been prevented with a bit more modern equipment. And modern equipment is expensive. In a deregulated market the power companies don't have the money to buy it. (well, usually)
And to refer to a point made a bit further up:
yes, this stuff matters, because there are people who care about what the masters of the power are doing. Because i like my screen to have another color than a forced black. Thus I like power.
And I want to know why people cut me off of my power.
sorry, but I think that minorities have rights, too.
Yes, Wyoming isn't that important, but on the other hand they have needs, too.
Thus, a union of states ought to care for those needs, because otherwise you got an international community and not a nation state.
Thus, the US senate is pretty okay for taking care of states' needs.
But really, the election system gives agricultural states way too much importance. Kind of like the Prussian election system before WWI
generally, in europe you can get any country's native cousine if you want to. but, of course you can't get it everywhere. And there are quite a few things you like to leave behind when you go back home. as well as there are things that you're not looking forward to when you're going home
yeah sure the computer was invented in iowa.
are you aware of the fact, that in 1936 Konrad Zuse proposed the idea of a programmable digital computing machine? it was built by 1939, btw
well now, there ain't that much about your high school. There is still a difference between different high schools.
But moreover, you can expect the college level in Europe to be at the beginning a bit higher than in America. I know a whole lot of guys who (easily) passed their high school diplomas in the US and afterwards struggled through the European high school diplomas.
Yeah, it might be that there's no valid use for list-generating software, but the problem's the spam, not the software. Anybody who knows a bit about programming can write a new list-generating software. Thus you can't ban the software, as you can be sure that there'll be a site who offers the same banned software for download.
The only way is to punish them for actually using it, not for having it. 'cause software ought to be free and not regulated away because someone could misuse it. just like a kitchen knife could be used for cutting bread as well as for killing someone
Yeah, you're right. BThe only good thing about this is that once Bush's out of office he can be jailed when he enters a country that supports the international court.
Only problem is, after this war there's probably no country that wants to risk being bombed for abiding international law. (Which the lawful Texan doesn't) So, throwing people in jail for minor copyright issues is okay, but for killing a couple hundred/thousand people it isn't. But who cares about children in jail, especially since the US never ratified the UN convention of children's rights.
Voltaire wasn't an actor. He's one of the more important French philosophers of the 18th century. He basically developed a philosophy of logic, that bans poverty. But he would certainly be most annoyed about flaws in anything, but especially the Linux Kernel, since he was a promoter of free and open work, and flawlessness.

hmm, obviously they were awarded for XP spying on you, thus keeping open a constant line to Redmond. sounds like a patent out of 1984 to me.

you got a point there. Additionally I forgot to read that that guy got 58000 mails. that certainly justifies the 250 000
Well now, this is certainly a laudable decision, that the court made, but isn't the judge overdoing it a bit by making the spammer pay 250,000?
Yeah, it might be that there's no valid use for list-generating software, but the problem's the spam, not the software.

yeah, but he's got a point there. People who believe in technology and know the faults of technology should bring technology to technophobes.
Yeah, you're right. BThe only good thing about this is that once Bush's out of office he can be jailed when he enters a country that supports the international court.
