I know what multicasting is thankyou, what I don't understand is why it is a failing of Bittorrent that it couldn't easily be adapted to it?? Bittorrent was written to get over the lack of multicasting. It solves the problem multicasting solves in a different way. The fact that there are no serious implementations of multicasting that scale to the whole Internet the way BT does, suggest that in current circumstances it actually solves the problem better than multicasting would. It also suggests that making BT multicasting-forward-compatible would be exactly the type of rigid adherence to the theoretical doctrine of the month that ruins a lot of otherwise useful software, written as final year projects.
The bittorrent work is very good, unless you are judging it as you would a final year project.
No possibility of adding multicasting?? Wtf does this even mean?
Actually, I'm not confusing the two. The article is. Presumably you yourself don't know anything about the subject, since you are too.
The 'Ring of Steel' is not a 'a network of thousands of surveillance cameras that line London's intersections and neighborhoods'. It's a bunch of sort-of-roadblocks which are on most vehicle entrances to the City of London - London's financial district, and very different from Central London. By this I mean the road narrows to a single lane with a bend in it to slow down vehicles, and there's a little booth where (sometimes) police sit and watch you. They keep an eye out for suspicious looking vehicles like 'panel vans' or similar which have been used by the IRA for bombings. Often they are unmanned. The cops might occasionally ask you where you're going, but AFAIK there's no routing logging or looking up of number plates.
There are also cameras as part of the Ring of Steel, but just to film vehicles at these ways in to the City. Note that the Ring only protects the City, which wasn't a target either of the 2005 bombings and failed bombings (except in as much that one of the bombed tube trains, the one at Moorgate, was probably inside the City when the bomb went off), nor of the recent failed firebombings in West Central London. It was set up in the early 90's, when the IRA were very active in London.
As for the 'network of thousands of surveillance cameras' that they are talking about, well it's difficult to say because there are a lot of CCTV cameras in London, installed by many different organisations; local authorities, traffic cops, companies on their private property etc. But I think it's a fair assumption that they are referring to the Congestion Charge cameras, since there isn't to my knowledge another citywide network of cameras, other than the ones on the public transport system, which obviously don't line 'intersections and neighbourhoods'. These are at every street entrance to the Congestion charge zone, a much much bigger area which covers every part of London that could be said to be central; shopping districts, theatre district, all main govt. buildings, royal palaces etc. and track the number plates of every single car going in and out. They also cover many, many locations inside the zone, to catch people who got in without being recorded or who live in the zone (they still have to pay). There are also vans fitted with cameras which drive around filming number plates. The data is kept for quite a while, for billing and penalty recovery purposes among others. There are in fact guys who walk around suburban residential streets outside the zone, taking down all number plates looking for people who have been in the zone without paying (I've met one on the job). The cameras are kept on all the time, even though there is no charge after 7:30 pm or in before the morning rush hour.
When the system was set up, the Greater London Authority promised they would not pass on the information to the police. Then they started to allow access to the police to look at the video afterwards if requested. Since the recent failed terrorism attacks, they now allow the police to watch in real time, but only for preventing and investigating 'threats to national security' - they can't use the info against normal crime. HTH.
the purpose of the network of number-plate-recognising cameras we have across this city isn't to surveil and 'deter' us, but to charge people who have to pay a congestion charge to drive through the city centre at busy times. How are they going to justify the Big Brother system in New York? Not only do they not have such a fee, but if they did it would be easily implemented by tolls on the bridges and tunnels that are the only way of getting to Manhattan from outside.
You've obviously never been sitting quietly in a pub garden, seen a ventilator shaft on the wall, and thought 'if I shoot that out, I can crawl through it'.
similar, film-related experiences have never ever happened to me.
iirc, each type of coin/note is legal tender up to a certain amount, eg 1p and 2p coins are legal tender for amounts up to £10.00, 5p coins up to £20.00 (or some other maximum values.)
I hadn't heard that there's any legal restriction on paying small amounts using large notes, based on the amount of change that would have to be returned to you. YMMV in practice of course though.
Games are more immersive, seem more 'real' for that reason, and you usually spend much longer playing a game than you would watching a movie. So, assuming that some or all people do have their propensity to commit violence stimulated by experiencing fictional violence, a violent game would seem to have more effect than a movie depicting similar acts.
Probably this idiot decided to see how far he could take this, by repeatedly claiming that he wasn't a business when asked, and then offering his business CC. All this as part of 'investigative journalism' that brought this shocking scandal to the front page of slashdot. If he had simply rung back and spoke to a different salesperson, he would have got away with it. Or use the Internet, for fuck's sake.
The serious reportage involved in this story also explains why he didn't end up buying a computer. It's not a quite as impressive to end the story with "So I called back, told a white lie, and got the machine shipped out." as "Dell lost my custom, and perhaps.. that of a million others!!
This 'guy' doesn;t actually exist in reality, he is a hypothetical invention, or in laymans terms, a troll. Anybody who actually wanted to find this information out would be able to get it much easier from one of about a million faqs on the web.
Although both were established by Richard Branson, they are now owned by two completely different companies. They were never were part of the same company, since RB sold off Virgin Records long before Virgin Radio were around. Virgin Radio was part of the same company as Virgin Megastores originally though.
..showed no causal link. the study showed a correlation.
what i wanted to ask you further up the thread is: why is it necessarily bad thing that one group wanted shorter sentences? perhaps sentences are in fact too long, and the group exposed to pornography were more reasonable and compassionate?!?
A popular misconception is that potassium nitrate is an anaphrodisiac and was added to food in all-male institutions. In fact, potassium nitrate has no such effect in humans.

I'm 26 and have a Master's degree.
Not half as important as knowing how to spell and write in sentences.

here (Scotland) one can refuse cash payment if the amount of change given is unreasonable
were you told this by a lawyer, or a bus driver??
and what would its traditional owners have to say about that?

the above runs and stops immediately with no output and no errors.
