That sucks. In Windows XP (at least) it is difficult to reinstall TCP/IP. In older versions of windows, it's easy enough to just remove the protocol, delete the affected files, and then install it again. Windows XP considers TCP/IP "core" to the OS and there is no good way to uninstall/reinstall it. I made that mistake once... and only once.
This is exactly the reinforcement of isolation that we reject. It's not "our own community." We are one community. Individual neighborhoods, cities, counties, etc. are interdependent. What we do affects others.
I accept that - except that you (in north-central Minneasota) are not in my (northern Iowa) community. Your goals and issues are different than mine - you are working on public transportation and I'd like to see more rural business development. Working together within a county or group of counties is a good idea. Waiting for the state or federal governments to "help" you isn't - it's like making a deal with the devil.
He was saying that they had 4000 people at a rally of some sort this year. Think of what those 4000 people could have been doing, or could be doing, to improve the lot of those in the Minneapolis/St. Cloud area instead of attending rallies. That's a lot of people and, even if they just do a little, a lot can be accomplished.
My ineloquent point is that we've become so conditioned to believe that we can't do anything without government help that even those faith-based groups (that should be out doing stuff instead of having their hand out to the government) are waiting on the government.
If you can get 4000 people with their hand out to whatever level of government - you've got 4000 people who can actually take it upon themselves and do something to help their community.
You should be telling those officials to back off and allow you to take care of your own community - which you could afford to do if you weren't sending at least 1/3 of what you make to Washington and more to Minneapolis. The sheer amount of taxes that everyone pays makes for a good excuse to avoid donating to the church or to other worthy groups - they "gave at the office already". Get the government out of the way and allow people to do what they know how to do to make a difference.
If someone (anyone - Democrat or Republican) is denying a legally registered voter the right to vote it should be a capital offense. If someone (anyone - Democrat or Republican) is trying to vote illegally it should also be a capital crime.
The english may be "proper" but the accent is next to impossible to understand. It's even worse than listening to someone from the backwoods of the deep south.
Do you really think that you can slashdot the drudge report? That site handles a lot of traffic. It does slow down when they're breaking some news, but it can take it.
I was working in an IBM AS/400 shop when Warp came out. We were running Windows 3.1 at the time on the PCs, but (if I remember correctly) Warp could natively or almost natively access the OS/400 filesystem.
Kind of neat stuff at the time when that wasn't all that common.
It's worth noting, by the way, that the Democrats have been waging a systematic campaign to get Ralph Nader off ballots, with no one seeming too upset about it...
Like how he was kicked off of the ballot in Pennsylvania(?) because he had enough signatures obtained in a timely manner, but the signatures were from Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.
Yeah - I was just answering the question about how a new machine can be infected so quickly. Even a Windows PC behind a $30 linksys dsl router won't get infected instantly because that router will block many of those infectious "requests".
In northern Iowa, our equivalent of that lizard is the ladybug. They feast on soybean aphids all summer - until harvest - then they invade. They cause no problems but are a major annoyance.
That wouldn't even be enough to simulate gravity very well, right? (Tykeclone being lazy and not bothering to translate miles/hour/minute to meters/second2)
On a typical Windows XP Home install, they do that - but they make any other users set up on the system to be in the admin or power user group by default anyway.

Watch it! I said something like that and was mod'd down to the 3rd level of karmic hell.
They had the silly thing in reverse.

But if you don't vote for one of them, the wrong lizard might win!

Unless it's to set the stage for the army of lawyers http://politics.slashdot.org/politics/04/10/07/233 6251.shtml?tid=225&tid=219 that the DNC is preparing for the election.

...And then charge for "support" on the software that you wrote.

Don't, however, think that if this was cleaned up that it would show more illegalities on the Republican side of the fence.
Nothing in there (yet) on Iowa - it sounds like the way that the absentee ballots were distributed this year will be ripe for fraud.
Kind of neat stuff at the time when that wasn't all that common.

There's news like that all over. Not sure what the right answer is except to maybe classify voter fraud (of any stripe) as a capital offense.
Imagine how that would screw with electronic equipment and satellites!

What about wrapping around the screen though?
Or a really, really big slingshot :)
