After i started to use a trackball, all problems with my arm disappeared. I used my Logitech Marble FX until it started to wear out, used the MX518 for a while and now i have switched (back) to the newer Cordless TrackMan. I find the old FX to give much better finger and hand support. The ball on the cordless is smaller and further out so only my fingertips can be used and be able to rest, that at a raised angle. I also miss using my thumb and most of my finger area for precise movement. Using the scroll wheel on the cordless instead of depressing the red "dedicated" scroll button on the FX is also giving me more strain. (X11/Xorg really does simulate a real scroll axis, while on windows this is poorly done) If they only could take the additional buttons from the cordless, put them on the FX and cram in the +- sensitivity buttons from the MX518. Also including both wheel and (hardware driven) scroll shift button. But i guess you would need an extra dimension to fit in all that...

The CRM114 classifier/filter has used markovian and derivatives thereof for quite some time and claims 99.984% accuracy. A downside is that markovian is quite a lot more resource intensive than simple bayesian.
I used bogofilter (a fast bayesian filter) before CRM114. Even if it was harder to setup CRM114 than bogofilter and it used more resources, it was totally worth it.
Inspired by this i made a small change to my privoxy 503 template page. It is easy to add a google cache and coral cache link besides the already existing try again link.
Example etc/privoxy/templates/connect-failed (fix spaces): <a href="@protocol@@hostport@@path@">try again</a>. or <a href="@protocol@@hostport@.nyud.net:8090@path@">Co ral cache</a>. or <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:@hostpo rt@@path@">Google cache</a>.
If the device could detect faster than walk movement and activate NA/busy mode. This would probably prevent some traffic accidents, not shure if anyone who normally talk and drive would buy one.

It is possabile to download older makefiles (and whatever is required) of a port via the cvsweb interface on freebsd.org. It's not fun downloading individual files but it has saved my day on several occations.
There are some pretty dang good remixes out there. And sid emulation? uhm... well, I plugged in my C64 via video/scart to my soundcard and sampled the REAL thing:)
remix.kwed.org has most of the remixes, just sort by rating or search for: shades, Nemesis the Warlock and zoids by O2, comic bakery by Instant Remedy and Ace 2 98 Club Mix by Tim Forsyth, to name a few of 1000+ =)
But perhaps you are right, it's not for modem users.
I got a small cgi script on my gateway that adds an entry to the dns/bind9 config file... much easier than editing all hosts files on all computers:) This also takes care of all subdomains, and that is something hosts file can't do:) @ IN A 127.0.0.1 * IN A 127.0.0.1 The script also strips all http:// www. and URL stuff so it's really easy to copy/paste URLs
The code is not clean so I won't sourceforge it yet.
I shure hope this isn't a spoiler, because I haven't seen the movie yet.:\
Perhaps it is an idea to add a spoilerwarning checkbox and/or dropdown menu of the latest movies to the Post Comment page or moderation system. And the same to the users/. account filter prefs. Or is that also a patented filtering technology, perhaps?

Pressing Scroll Lock on a FreeBSD OS will pause all screen output and enable you to scroll back/up the console with PGUP/Arrows. Hmmm... I wonder if it was ment to be used in such a way:P
O well, we have scrollwheels and GUIs now, havnt we?

For some reason my old computers have exactly this... I wonder why :)

I remember reading something about that in an old article, but paging/swapping or a ramdisk would be the only practical use. http://hedera.linuxnews.pl/_news/2002/09/03/_long/ 1445.html
