Can you just imagine 300 Dorm students with their own ad-hoc p2p network? It's too bad that the site's/.-ed, but I think a working application for this would be p2p networking within close proximity like a large University where the majority of the 'web' would be located around dorms, but several 'access points' on the outside of the larger hubs could connect local residents. Possible extending the network across town.
I'd hate to be the only sap between two large dorms - you'd be the gateway and could say good-bye to any bandwidth for yourself.
Damnit! Get that site back on-line. I'd love to test ths sucker out.
And I'd use this for what? Oh. I forgot. I'm supposed to call them with my VISA, right?
"Hi, yes, I checked through my logs and it turns out I had one of your citizens download some ssh source from me. I'm just calling to give you my credit card number so you can bill me the the registration fee."
Nice try buddy, but the favourite quote is " Stinking Rotten Jews Make Cakes of Human Blood and Excrement, and Eat Them While Watching American Pornography" I know it's an open forum, but if I said that in Slashdot or any other site, I'd expect the post to get modded down to deletion.
We only probe the ports on your sister that she has made public too.
The other messages in the thread are funnier :-)

Thanks to whoever posted those links to the research site over at M$.
A few notes from the past half-hour:
PAN is old. The fricking code was last updated 2 years ago. I've seen that page before. 2 YEARS AGO.
anyways. here's another note.
http://research.microsoft.com/~dbwilson/ -- this guy's pretty funny as far as Microsoft goes. He's releasing some stuff under the GPL on Microsoft's server, as well as linking to GNU Emacs for Windows. I think he deserves a raise.
I do _not_ own a mac, nor run Office, (or looked into this) but the sad thing is, this patch probably adds another 100Mb to the size. why do they allways do this? arghh. What I'd really like to see are patches that are more efficent and smaller than the original code.
All it really takes is one executive bringing home a copy fo rhis little girl to listen to. She tells a friend who teaches her how ot rip it and send it to him who then throw it on his site while telling his buddies on irc and msn where to get it.
They do the same, and within an _hour_, there are 200 nodes on a p2p network with the EXACT same copy of the new album.
Meanwhile, the exec gets out of the shower, takes a shit, and realizes that he forgot to tell his little girl NOT to tell anybody about the cd. Too late. By the time he walks downstairs, there are now 2000 copies floating around.
I'm not in the music industry, but when they say that 'security was high' regarding the release of the new album, how many people actually have access to it? 20? 50? 100? Remember, all it takes is _one_ as illustrated above. If you think that scenario is Fiction, think about MSN/ICQ contact lists, and small irc channels.
Could Microsoft be so nice as to let my father download Windows XP now, and then send him a copy of the next version on cdrom once it comes out? The next release will probably only be a couple of months away as well.

-Enough Said. Why does Microsoft allways do this? I mean, I'm only 21 years old, and I don't have more than $6000 Canadian to spend per year on server hardware? but why would I choose a vendor who doesn't have the balls to use their own product? This has come up many, many times before, so I know this post is repetative, but when will we get the point across?
But that's exactly it. Too many consoles, and the game developers have to either decide which platform to support 100% or work 110% and get the game working on more than one platform. The last game console I actually bought was a NES and I have watched my freinds throughout the years spend good-earned money on one console only to find that it doesn't support the game they want (or that the game they want doesn't support the console they own). With a universal gaming 'OS' so to speak, I could throw out my NES and buy a new system that may be the cheapest on the market (I don't play games often. obviously) While some of my freinds could go out and buy the latest top-of-the-line model of the newest playstation, and they may have better graphics, more fps, and a better rendering engine for the 'realistic look'.
It won't kill competition, I believe it would encourage it. Instead of console makers spending time and money pushing game developers to support their hardware, they don't have to worry about the games, but worry about making them look better on their equipment.
I am not means a gamer, but those are my thoughts.

While we're on the subject of SA, did you mean thwart or Thwarte(R)?
But they got phones and faxes!

If you begin to get hammered, point your cname to someone elses machine.
And do it FAST!
I just double-checked my logs and it looks like I'll be canceling my winter vacation. Jailtime doesn't appeal to me.
I don't mean to troll or flame, but Five 404's in Five minutes? No thanks - I'd expect better.
I'm new to these post-9/11 hacking laws.
So let me get this straight. I can't scan or finger your ports but I can take pictures of them?
*scribble*scribble*scribble*
Ok, I think I got it. Next lesson please.
Whatever man. Suck it up. I'm sure all this talk about "The Jews" had nothing to do with it ;)
here you go

I wanted to be a detective. In some ways it became a reality. I found out who was taking the toilet paper home yesterday!

Blah. mod -4 for ranting.
Craftsman released a new wrench?!?!
This moz party's going to have a dual purpose now.
w00t!
I have one hour left....
Doh. I'll talk to you then.
(good luck modding this one)
Seeing their website, It looks like they used Microsoft(R) Frontpage(bah.) to create it.
.,...
If they used a MS program that allows even my Grandmother to create forms, wouldn't PanIP
I'm not even going to finish that sentance or this post. The whole thing is too fucking stupid to make sense of. funny or not.
Why am I up? I wonder if the fridge has cheddar.

A pic would be nice as well..
I'm a blind, orphaned insomniac. Your post really hurt me deep down. I shall onw visit my therapist. What's your address? I'm sending you the bill.
