The users have only one complaint: they cannot set up an Out of Office auto-responder like they could on Exchange. I thought that was good, and tried to explain why auto-responders range between useless and evil, but had no success. They want it anyway. So I'm setting up vacation in their.forward files when needed, and looking for a good web interface so they can do it themselves. The Webmin interface I tried didn't work well, so I'm still looking, and may have to work on the Webmin module myself.
I came across the same problem. Looked into using the horde module, but never got it working right (since I wasn't using horde in the first place, etc.). I ended up using it's idea of operation and threw together a php script that will do it. Needs ftp on the server to work. If you're interested, let me know.
Regarding the backups you want to do, I've been very happy with http://www.rsnapshot.org/. I've come to use this as my own backup, as well as the backup system for 2 organizations I manage systems for (one of which is an investment organization, so is under some of the rules outlayed here).
I had a Grandstream Handytone-488. It was a piece of crap. It would lock up randomly without cause. It wouldn't pass outgoing calls through correctly. It wouldn't pass calls on to * the way I wanted to. I ended up sending it back. Either the unit I got was just plain faulty, or they rushed this new item out the door too soon.
This philosophical dilemma is the same whether you believe in any kind of divinity or not. Any time you imagine a Beginning--whether it's God or The Big Bang (or a combination of both!)--you have to ask yourself "But what came before that?" God is no more or less exempt from that question than The Big Bang is.
And that is exactly my point. No matter what, it comes to down to a belief system. And, let me tell you again, I am all for the study of open-minded science. But to say that the study of the world around us (science) must exclude the possibility of a Intelligent Designer (a belief system), and then ignore, as you so accurately stated, that in the end, you can't explain everything and your theories end up resting on some belief system, this is what I would call not open-minded. I'm all for teaching various theories in school for how things came to be. But I'm not for excluding a theory (one which I happen to hold) which includes Intelligent Design, just because it includes something you don't happen to believe.
Sorry, but that is not what I meant. I don't laugh when "new evidence is brought to light". I laugh that the cherished theory of the day (which excludes an Intelligent Designer) is exchanged for the new cherished theory of the day. First it was a metorite. Then it was a global warming theory. And on and on.
I can heartily agree with a part of the thinking in the statement:
There's almost never any guarantee that what we currently know is right.
When you approach this world from a purely naturalistic world view, there is no guarantee of all-surpassing knowledge. But if you come to the realization that this universe could only have come to be through an Intelligent Designer, then you realize there is One who does know what is right. And if this is so, all we discover should be coherent with this world view.
Fundamentalist religious forces are demanding the weaking of science and math education in schools because these subjects don't coincide with their mythology. No wonder U.S. students are so weak in these subjects!
I have to disagree with this statement. It's interesting to note that many who do not believe in a higher being routinely dismiss those that do to be unintelligent and to have "checked their brain at the door", so to speak. This is far from the truth. I am a devout believer in Jesus as my Savior. I also happen to love science. This is an incredible universe that has been created by an intelligent creator.
I actually find it humorous to watch so called "experts" in science change their theories of "pre-historic" events to suit every new finding that doesn't match with their previous theory. Especially when in fact all these findings can be attributed to a Divine creation and a world-wide flood (as accurately recorded in the Bible).
I truly believe all these so-called scientists and the rest that adamantly accuse those who believe in a higher being to be intellectually challenged really have their own agenda to push. They don't want to believe there is absolute truth and an absolute morality which their lives must be measured against.
And then there's the base question for all you evolutionists.... where did all the stuff that the universe is made of come from. No matter have far back you go... where did what that came from come from?
But back to the subject. You're #2 point was actually quite on, and I couldn't agree more. There is very little personal responsibility being taught today, especially at home (which can be seen in the court system today... you stub your toe somewhere, and it's an opportunity to sue someone). And much of school is teaching how to feel good about yourself, how to be tolerant of everyone (except for those believer people), how to put a condom on, etc. Let's get back to academics!
MythTV currently relies on libavcodec on the backend to do video compression/decompression.
Unless you use a card that does encoding/decoding in hardware, no? Then MythTV is just dumping the MPEG data stream back and forth from the HD. Like the system I'm building using the Hauppage PVR-350.
Which would mean you always want to use the testing version of x11-base/xorg-x11
It appears to me (and I've used it) that x11-base/xorg-x11 has a stable version (which you would want to use unless you have a compelling reason to use the testing version). http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=xorg-x1 1
Wow. That was pretty impressive. I went ahead and put it up at my site. No matter how I click the link, I always get the date. Seems pretty solid to me. Maybe someone else can try to find a problem. Just go to http://mysite.net/getDate.php
Ok. You first. Just make sure you take pictures to show everyone. Then use the submerged machine to host the pictures, and post the link on/. Then we can _really_ see how well it cools.:-)
all the servers are located which posters put links to on/. stories. It's just the/. effect burning up their routers, servers, wires, everything. A bit unusual that they'd all be located in one geographic area, but maybe that's some kind of plot.
My kid spilled a full glass of water over my Zaurus 5500. I picked it up and watched water run out of the earphone jack and CF ports. Needless to say I was not exactly happy with my kid. Well, immediately took the battery out, SD card, wireless CF card (which was in there at the time), took the thing apart, dried up what I could, and let it dry for a day. Put it all back together and boom, it's run fine with no problems. I like a piece of electronics that can take that kind of abuse.
I think there is a lot more hope that EU will stick to it's guns than the US (and I say that as a US citizen). There is much less financial/economic risk to the EU to do this vs. the US, being that MS is a US company. So it will be easier for them to actually keep to their judgement.
And that's.... bad? I'd be more worried about Mozilla. Could someone who knows better than I let us know what association AOL still has with Mozilla and how an AOL buyout by MS would affect Mozilla?

But thankfully you backed that up somehow.... right?.... or .. maybe... not.
Yup, I click the "exploit" test link, and all I get is "Shell is not a registered protocol"... must only be a Microsoft Windows problem.
Executive Summary: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

But 100% mo' zilla than all the competitors combined.

I know I was interested enough to click on the articles (though I agree they are sparse on details)
