Yeah, but if you're using NTFS, where there doesn't appear to be a max file size, you still get the 2GB limit on Outlook files. Every damn version of Outlook has had this 2GB limit, but OutlookXP doesn't actually fix the problem, just warns the user at 1.87GB. We have people hitting their limit all the time at work, but that's because they like to send artwork and whatnot and not clear out their folders.
We've been using the latest CVS of PHP and have been enjoing the DOM XML, which is in 4.3 final. Check it out at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.domxml.php . It's pretty straight forward and offers all the XML functionality you could want.

Not to sound rude or anything, but have you checked linux.aureal.com? I have a stupid OEM Turtle Beach Montego card (go Dell...) and it has the Vortex 2 chipset and the drivers they have there work peachy keen with it...well at least the initial public release ones do, their second release didn't work at all with my card...eh, go figure.
Hot damn! After reading that article (ok, reading the first 5 pages then blankly staring at the last few) it looks like all these crazy cprE classes might have a point afterall. Look ma, I'm programming my Playstation 2!
On a side note, I have to write a physics lab using none other than BASIC. How friggin arcane is that? Over the past semester I've gone from C++ to C to Assembly and now to some BASIC? Go technologically up-to-speed physics department! Maybe I can even use one of their circa 1994 Gateway 486's! Yeah! pfft.
I've seen CS professors write less clear code than that.
The crypto thingy looks like it's in good ol' scary Perl anyways...I'd compile it but I'm no good at anything but assembly anymore...damn cprE classes.
Privacy is a joke here at school...

I'm at a large college in the midwest majoring in computer engineering and privacy is a joke. First off, they've up and sold all of our personal information to anybody who will pay for it. It's long accepted that they sold our phone numbers, but now they're selling our e-mail addresses. Just the other day I and every other student got spammed by some company with an e-mail about their great weekend dinner deals. What? Did I ask for that e-mail? Heck no. But they don't care. I pay my 7 bucks a month for ethernet / telephone service and they still feel the need to sell my e-mail address? What a gyp. Why in the WORLD does this need to be an opt out situation? Did I ask for any of this to happen? No. They throw a hissy fit if anybody moves off campus and tries to get away without giving the university their new address. Those stupid telemarketers call every day with a new credit card, and now e-mail daily telling me about restaurants and how I can get my MCSE certification? I see it fundamentally wrong that I have to pay to have my information not made public and I find it even more appauling that the university, after screwing me left and right and charging for everything feel the need to sell my information to silly spammers and their opt-out policies. I'm pretty sure our ethernet ports are monitored--last year after I 'accidentally' had an anonymous FTP server running (whoopsie) and the big bad RIAA sent them a letter, they called me in, talked to me and told me that they'd been monitoring this and that...Ok, so maybe they had a search warrant (d'oh) but still, I changed all my passwords and now I'm running an OS that might be a lil more secure than OpenWindows95. Anyways, my point (I have one?) is that privacy is a joke, even when you're paying thousands a year to attend a large public university. So get over it, encrypt everything, and if television has taught us anything, trust no one.

I'm sure our accounting software is nowhere near Y2K compatible. I took a look at the source code (written in Turbo PASCAL of all things) and from what I can tell the program only uses 2 digits for the year, so I'm going to make sure I'm far far out of town when everybody goes back to work the following monday. I let my boss, the crazy/luddite accounting lady know, and still nobody will pay me to fix the stupid program so guess what? I'm going to let it be Jan. 3rd and ask for double my current wages before I sit down with the crazy accounting lady and tell her why I have to rewrite her 15 year old program. It'll be a great day for a raise...kinda like the day I had the whole network unplugged while rewiring...oh well, it'll be interesting either way...

It was sad, really it was (not like I was expecting anything besides that, but it was still better than the video music award reruns). I sat there and laughed at it with some non-nerd friends, even. One girl kept saying "ooh look at that badass dressed up like a fratboy!" And yes, I must agree...how many 'hackers' do you know that actually get dressed anyways? All MTV did was glorify the few posers they could find that'd go on tv and didn't look too much like losers (how many pimply-faced youths did they show anyways? none.) and who bathed regularly. If they want want a real view of hackers they should hang out in one of my compsci classes and see if any of those guys will know how to respond when they have a camera in their face. MTV wasted my time but it at least gave me something to laugh at...
ps I really found it funny that the one kid there at the end was sitting in front of his windows box showing 'The Matrix' on his computer. Ooh. What a badass. VCDs and MPEGS are _oh_so_hard_to_find. sheesh.
My roomate watched that special and I actually found myself watching it pretty closely before too long...I was just sitting here and all of a sudden I heard a voice exactly like that of the agent from The Matrix (agent Smith, maybe?) and I turned around only to see none other than Carl Sagan talking...Does anybody know if they got that agent voice from Sagan or did I miss something?
of that Simpsons episode where Lisa found the angel artificat thing and all of Springfield thought the world was coming to an end and everything, but in the end it just turned out to be a hoax to get people hyped for the opening of some big mall....
I woulnd't be surprised if Transmeta makes toilet paper or something like that...Anything with this much hype is bound to suck.
