Excellent! The first time I have seen Datastream cited on/.! Pity though, economics and finance is typed about so much here, but so much is cr4p.
Don't worry about Doc Ruby, it is an opinionated self-rightous troll who comments on almost everything with little knowledge and less insight. (OTOH, I am seriously considering the possibility that Doc Ruby is a sophisticated BOT).
and by clicking agree, you agree with full knowledge that you give up your mind, body, soul, finances and all property wether physical or intellectual, to the owner of (insert product or website) to do with as he/she pleases
don't you have to sign that to enrole at most universities?
You seem to have no problem letting out aggression on/. Maybe the electronic and physical worlds are co-dependent for you, maybe the seperation will further break down unless you're careful.
(Analog direct-connection) land lines are not very secure - IMHO it is less secure than splitting into packets sent different ways around the world - the analog line could be tapped anywhere on the journey, but the digital packets are only interceptable (meaningfully) at the terminal-to-exchange space.
Perhaps they've already had their fun, or else perhaps they are just not criminals. Either way, if they can make the port scanning seem like noise (e.g., use a seemingly random code) people knowing or not knowing about it doesn't matter (remeber they'd already have to have some kind of backdoor to be activated somehow).
1. Many ports getting a sequence is much more like noise than one port getting it -> much harder to identify an attempt of intrusion.
2. If you have a backdoor, as mentioned in the article, how will you know it has not been accessed? It was not listening, it gets activated, does its duty, deactivates. If it is a good backdoor it is invisible to that system (only visible though an additional layer).
So it is a better way of getting a connection, but not a solve-all for the intruder, and I doubt the intruder cares about any waste of your resources.
With so few and so fixed appartments I recommend you set up ethernet connections to a common box. Less than 1K total cost. Then set that box to whatever external connectio you like (if you like to).
My employer is presently migrating NT to XP (and Groupwise to Outlook, but this is another story) while they take the desktops from P2s to P4s (heh, and the screens from 1x15"CRT to 3x18"TFT!). Functionality-wise we still use the same aps (Office, SyBase clients, various data feeds).
There was a point but I forgot it! Back to the Budvar I guess!
A decent pair of speakers can really live this long and keep being great. A quality stereo pair bought 15 years ago will still whoop any standard 5.1 or 6.1 system of today thrown at them (I have a SoA and Thoebe pumping out quality through 15 year old speaskers right now).
I don't recommend new foam in itself, but if the shell/stand of your speaker is still good you can replace the whole 'insides' at a reasonable cost and keep what makes your speaker more than good.
Two thousand fattened trolls like maniacs
Have despoiled our common grave
Now what necrophagous Second Coming backs
From trollkore to enslave?
Sickle constellations
Stud the belts that welt the sky
Whilst the bitter winter moon
Prowls the cloud, slashdot
Like shifting parent flesh
Under silk matricide...
Watchful as he was upon Eden
Where every rose arbour and orchard he swept
Hid the hissing of a impotent dildo
In an ancient tryst with catastrophe
Soon the be kept
Hear that hissing now on the breeze
As through the plundered groves of the comment garden
A fresh horror blows but ten billion souls
Are blind to see the rotting shit for the trees
This is the theme to a better Armageddon
Nightchords rake the heavens
PAN DAEMON AEAON
And what use are prayers to that god?
As devils bay concensus for the space to piss
On your smouldering faith
And the mouldering face
Of this world long a paradise lost
This is the end of everything
Hear the growing chora that a new dawn shall bring
Danse macabre 'neath the clit of the zodiac
Now brighter trolls shall reflect on our fate
What sick nativities will be freed when those lights burn black?
The darkside of the comment always threw our malice back...
I see the serpentine in your eyes
The nature of the beast as moderations arrive
Our screams shall trail to Angels
For those damned in flames reply
All sinners lose their lot on Judgement Day
We should have cut our looses as at Tramsmeta
But our hearts like heavy crosses held the vain belief
Meta-'ration, like a promised nation
Gleamed a claim away...
This is the end of everything you have ever known
Buried like vanquished reason
Troll is season
Drive like the drifting snow
Peace, a fragile lover, left us fantasising war
On our knees or another clitter's shore
Heiling new flesh
Read, then roared
To a crooked cross and a Holy Cause
What else be whipped to jihad for?
This is the end of everything
Rear the tragedies
That the Editor shall sing
Old adversaries
Next to Eve
Now they're clawing back
I smell their cumming
As through webbed panes of meat
Led by hoary Death
They never left
Dreaming sodomies
To impress on human failure
When we've bled upon GNAA
Tablatures of gravel law
Shall see Gehennah paved
When empires fall
And nightmares crawl
From the cradle to Pingular....
This is the end of everything
If you did read the article fully (before posting your diatribe) you would have read 'I need to get in to do a repair. You need to give me the number and password.' Sometimes they succeeded, or else they'd get only the number and try to break the password by using proprietary programs." At other times, a secretary would simply key in the code, providing what seemed like onetime access but actually enabling the brothers to hear touch tones and translate them into numbers they could then use whenever they pleased.(pointed out by Uber Banker) Emphasis showing the sentence you chose to omit.
Or you may have read At one point during my visit with the Badirs, I pull out my cell phone and make a call. Before it even connects, Shadde, who is sitting across the room, recites all 12 digits perfectly. (added by aTMsA).
And if you think being blind makes hearing better you are wrong, it doesn't (they are the same ears after all). If you chose to train your hearing rather than posting diatribe you may benefit.
Not to mention these hackers (unlike most) were successful.
...was under GPL. They will have to disprove that first, which IMHO is he kernel of the case (other than a last-ditch effort to get bought out which seems to have failed).
I looked it up, not much cheaper on Amazon (~$80). That really sucks for an intermediate economics textbook... a bit of variance is good in authors/approaches but I'm all in favour of old-school textbooks covering the core theories (which are largely timeless and the 'core' benefits from economies of scale) and extensions (conjuncture from lecture handouts or the odd paperback/magazine cutting, game theory beyond NE as another module and shouldn't be attempted in depth, etc).
Although it sucks make the most of it. If you know your textbooks inside out (and can apply this insight to real-life problems) you are set up with a miriad of opportunity and 10*$100 will seem a world away in a couple of years. Just make the most of the opportunity you have at college here-and-now.
No, you are supporting a country in transition (remember censorship doesn't have to be 'paid' for). If you don't buy Chinese, will the country change (compare the present leadership to the Shanghai Brigage 10 years ago or that of the Great Leap Forward when China was under sanction, if you think they are the same you are believing a fallacy)?
Likewise if you think a government will change into a lets-hug-each-other one from a totalitarian one over night (or even in 20 years) you are seriously deluded. Change takes time to feed through, or else there is volatile coup after volatile coup and everyone gets screwed (or nuked).
Not that I say you should buy Chinese specially, but denying buying Chinese for some up-in-the-clouds-political-fairyland ideology is madness. Global trade is great for sharing wealth and generating more wealth (read wealth as standard of living) amongst nations, and in terms of the trickle-down effect China is doing damn well compared to any other country's development (eg Agricultural Land Rights, mobility of labour and class, etc).
But if you would prefer to condemn the worker to starve as a serf on a farm rather than work in a factory getting a better standard of living for themselves and their family that is up to you.
Pure (Marxist) communism is. But the reality is defeated by self-interest. The most self interested will try to achieve the most power. Practical communism is totalitarian, just like practical capitalism is totalitarian except the totalitarianism in capitalism is reigned (to some extent) by the rule-of-law (and a career in law != a career in politics in 'traditional' 'Western' countries whereas in communist countries the politicians were the law; whether we are seeing transition in the US and Western Europe with politicians in the pockets of politicians and industrialists is interesting).
well the best thing you could do is to not buy items made in china... of course thats just a good idea anyways
Yeah, don't buy their products, deny them benefits of global trade, nothing like condemning a nation to poverty and sustaining a disceptive self-sustaining government (rather than rewarding the transition China is in).
You swine. You vulgar little maggot. You worthless bag of filth. As we say in Texas, I'll bet you couldn't pour piss out of a boot with instructions on the heel. You are a canker. A sore that won't go away. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be seen with you. You're a putrescent mass, a walking vomit. You are a spineless little worm deserving nothing but the profoundest contempt. You are a jerk, a cad, a weasel. Your life is a monument to stupidity.
You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon. You are a bleating foal, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselves in recognition of what they had done. I will never get over the embarrassment of belonging to the same species as you. You are a monster, an ogre, a malformity. I barf at the very thought of you. You have all the appeal of a paper cut. Lepers avoid you. You are vile, worthless, less than nothing. You are a weed, a fungus, the dregs of this earth.
And did I mention you smell? Try to edit your responses of unnecessary material before attempting to impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it more rapidly. You snail-skulled little rabbit. Would that a hawk pick you up, drive its beak into your brain, and upon finding it rancid set you loose to fly briefly before spattering the ocean rocks with the frothy pink shame of your ignoble blood. May you choke on the queasy, convulsing nausea of your own trite, foolish beliefs. You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You're a fool, an ignoramus. Monkeys look down on you. Even sheep won't have sex with you. You are unreservedly pathetic, starved for attention, and lost in a land that reality forgot.
And what meaning do you expect your delusionally self-important statements of unknowing, inexperienced opinion to have with us? What fantasy do you hold that you would believe that your tiny-fisted tantrums would have more weight than that of a leprous desert rat, spinning rabidly in a circle, waiting for the bite of the snake? You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void.
You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you puerile, one-handed, slack-jawed, drooling, meatslapper. On a good day you're a half-wit. You remind me of drool. You are deficient in all that lends character. You have the personality of wallpaper. You are dank and filthy. You are asinine and benighted. You are the source of all unpleasantness. You spread misery and sorrow wherever you go. You smarmy lagerlout git. You bloody woofter sod.
Bugger off, pillock. You grotty wanking oik artless base-court apple-john. You clouted boggish foot-licking twit. You dankish clack-dish plonker. You gormless crook-pated tosser. You churlish boil-brained clotpole ponce. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid, so stupid it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so
Of course this refers to a general virus spoof reply, rather than a specifically identified virus (when this is identified), but I sure don't advocate an advisory on stopping bounces/autoreplies.
If i send a mail to billabab@hotmail.com but meant to send it to millybob@hotmail.com, than i appreciate a bounce. A good virus spoof will make it too hard to differentiate genuine and false return addresses.
OO seems to have a foothold in xplatform (critical mass?) support, now a KOffice resurgence.
But could someone outline the principal benefits of KOffice over OpenOffice or vice versa? In what way are these better than MS Office (functionality not price) for an office product implementation?
Having a choice is great, but I'd prefer the best features, and as with all type-2 errors if I don't know what I'm missing, I don't miss it.
