Also- WTF is wrong with all the people from outside the US trying to dictate what is right for us? Why don't they leave us the hell alone and focus on their own problems.
Dunno, ask Iraq. Or Iran. Or Vietnam. Or Grenada.
Well i can tell you that as a commie canadian, we enjoy the entitlement to not be financially crippled randomly for some medical emergency beyond our control. Multiply that security by the whole population and you have a higher standard of living and a happier population. Costs can be managed by preemptively treating diseases and disorders earlier on (you americans like preemptive strikes right?) and this reduces longer-term costs.
But yeah, Slashdot IS packed with knee jerk reactionary dicks who think they have all the angles covered, especially the kind that make arguments appeal to fiscal matters or some charming and illusory reference to responsibility while simultaneously ignoring people in his own country who are falling between the cracks.
It doesn't give you a very good indication that there's any sort of functionality hooked into those headers.
That's interesting. When i loaded the page for the first time and noticed the arrows on the side section header, i immediately thought: "cool, they added collapsible sections". Then i clicked it, and indeed it worked as expected! It is pretty spiffy! I'm certain anyone who has every used a Mac Finder and/or the Gnome Desktop would make this "arrow" connection as well.
The example you show is, ahem, quite customizable. You can swap the graphics indicators for simple line graphs, or even text. Why not download it and see for yourself. It was written by the XRG guy iirc
I've booted up on a knoppix cd more than once with the idea of writing files to a cd using knoppix. Though I suppose it would work just as well to boot into something that can load itself completely into memory, and free up the drive.
I use knoppix-std (security tools distro) from time to time. there is a "tomem" cheat code available at bootup for loading the image into memory - provided you have enough. As you would expect, things run faster.
I can't say for sure but I presume the cdrom is free after knoppix is up and running.
the new one supposedly lasts 18. And if that turns out to be exaggerated, even 15 hours would be a very good battery lifetime
apple tends to underestimate battery life, not the other way 'round. The original mini was billed as having 8 hrs of life, but various tests showed some would consistently last 9 or 10 hrs. so if apple claims 18, i wouldn't be surprised to see 20 or so hours of actual playback.
Just as a human arm has joints at the shoulder, elbow, and wrist that allow our arms to bend and rotate, the octopus bends its arm to forming three segments of roughly equal length.
i wonder how roughly equal the segments were. it would be interesting to know if the difference in lengths correspond to the golden mean, ie coreespond to how our limbs are organized.
1) make up your own protocol, say, "gumbi://"
2) before you link to this protocol, make the user download "http://your.ip.address/eraseharddrive.dmg". The user downloads this and mounts it (because most browsers automatically open.dmg files by default)
yep but in case this isn't totally redundant already, this whole boogaloo can be avoided with the Little Snitch.
When the diskimage-loader tries to access the net, you WILL be prompted by the SNitch. simply deny the connection and watch as "gumbi" is reported as an unknown protocol, and the whole exploit fails.
the Snitch seems to block bogus protocol handlers. as long as LS queries you about the "diskimages-handler", the connection can be blocked, and the image fails to mount. camino gives me "malware is not a registered protocol":)
strange tho--in the FA they have the link to the ftp exploit as well. i know very well that ftp is allowed by LS to connect whenever/wherever so i tried that exploit. it didnt work either, not clear why. so with the apple update and Little Snitch, mac users should be safe... but for how long??

The FA states:
Just as a human arm has joints at the shoulder, elbow, and wrist that allow our arms to bend and rotate, the octopus bends its arm to forming three segments of roughly equal length.

(from google) the golden ratio = 1.61803399
what is this fucking FARK now? *barf*
check out Fire, or Converation (for os x).... behave exactly like a multi-user aim chat window,

2) before you link to this protocol, make the user download "http://your.ip.address/eraseharddrive.dmg". The user downloads this and mounts it (because most browsers automatically open
