Off Topic question: I was thinking of setting up my own mail server but wasnt sure how to handle situations where I take down the server or connectivity issues, as in an upstream caching provider (cheap/free) or do you simply rely on your senders resending if you have significant uptimes?
Got a call from a friend yesterday about some spam he received. The guy is on a student visa and from a muslim country. In any case the spam stated that it was from the FBI and were monitoring his web traffic and had noticed him consuming an inordinate amount of porn with a bunch of links to porn sites (that were being advertised)
The point? It actually freaked him out till he realized it was spam.. so much for the land of the free?
Sorry but this is BS (nothing could have been done differently). The spike in fanatics came about in the CIA-Afghan-USSR war where they were trained on how to become more effective killers without any thought to the aftereffects. Additionally recent actions have only worsened the situation. Look at the elections in Pakistan after the Afghan invasion, for the first time in its history fanatic theological parties won significant victories including a majority in the province bordering Afghanistan. Same for Iran, instead of encouraging liberalizing trends (Khatami) the end result achieved by ostracizing Iran resulted in another fanatic regime coming into power. As another post mentioned the Irani Spy Chief saying (not sure of the validity) 'Thank you' to the US
In principle i agree but shouldnt that content be already paid for many times over. From the original copyright duration, all programming prior to 1998/1991 (duration dependant) should've been free/public domain:)
As trite as this may sound, making a lot of polite noise explaining the issues to both the senator mentioned in the article and the secretary of state would be a good thing. Also email any Democratic action committee or PAC or the MA party itself detailing how this affects you and how this may cause you to switch party affiliations / question the core democratic values. I just sent out multiple letters and urge you to do the same

Awesome on the timing issue thing, i have an issue with tv stuttering for no real reason @ random intervals (low cpu usage), i havent read the link you posted but thanks for the heads up:)
Reading the article it says the way it works is by superheating water and using a metal catalyst to seperate H2 and O using the super heated steam and hydrogen to fuel the car. The problem not mentioned at all in the article is where does the super heated water come from?
Two questions regarding suse i've been wanting to start switching over for a while but never actually got into it beyond using a redhat and/or suse box as a server.
Is there a site that has 1:1 mappings on which windows shortcut is equivalent to what in suse (kde?) as in winkey or crtl etc = start menu, what do i use to pull it up instead of having to use the mouse?
I mostly use my laptop as a dumb terminal to logon to my windows / linux machines but I don't know of an RDP equivalent in linux? I was able to remote single applications but thats not what I was looking for, basically a simple client that allows me access to the desktop as if i was natively there. I just installed suse 10 this past weekend and noticed that there's a VNC option that I haven't been able to setup correctly (yet) but my (personal) issue with VNC is it doesnt mimic the desktop experience as closely as RDP (keyboard shortcuts, simple full screen mode, sound/printer mapping etc)
and on an unrelated note, love softraid - at least the idea of it pretty big selling point for a newbie home user automatic backup
Don't see why this is considered outlandish (I admit I havent RTFA but) if they can minimize environmental impact in non war conditions for low costs (some sort of power ramp up circuitry?) I dont see why they shouldnt. Seriously doubt anybody would expect them to do that in a war scenario but for training exercises and other routine uses dont see it as being a bad and/or outrageous thing
From the article you linked to
A statement of software support, in which Warner will formally announce its intent to release movies and other content on the high-definition disc format, is expected sometime today.
I actually just read an article stating that the WB didnt announce support because of HP throwing a wrench in their plans. WB was demanding greater DRM which the BluRay working group had accepted until HP demanded that they allow managed home copying a la HD DVD

I currently use dual nics to connect to my home and office network as I presume a lot of other people do, this should help reduce costs in similar scenarios. I didnt install it cause of the WEP/WPA limitations, did anyone else try it? If so does this allow bridging connections?
If one already owns a home, they usually don't have the option to just pick up and switch between jobs. The boss I mentioned in my previous post lived in Leesburg, VA and commuted to Rockville, MD...according to yahoo maps thats 1 hour which is obviously calculated based on the speed limit without considering traffic / congestion. The cheaper houses I was talking about were south of Woodbridge and the more expensive ones were in the areas between Reston and Ashburn. I'm in NoVa so don't particularly have a clue about Hyatsville, MD but find it doubtful especially considering my bro got his (albeit spacious) townhouse in Gaithersburg, MD for around 400K 2+ years ago
I'm not sure about the square footage but single family homes in my area are currently going for over a million dollar. I'm about 15 miles outside of DC and no way in hell can your average code monkey (read me) afford something like that.
Move further away you say? 30 miles outside of DC prices for a single family home drop down to the super affordable... wait for it 700-800 thousand dollars.
Most anybody I know that is buying something they can realistically afford (100-300 thousand) involves an hours commute at the very least. My boss at the last place I worked had a 60 minute commute if he left @ 6 am otherwise it took him over 2 hours, again doesnt live in a mansion but an average single family home.

Precisely the grandparents point? The price of democracy is eternal vigilance and that includes democrats, republicans, corporate leaders anybody?
lol where'd u get the genealogical tree of all the prophets and where (Quran,Bible etc etc) exactly was any of them appointed a prince? :)

A particularly poignant adage "People get the government they deserve" and another "The price of liberty is eternal vigilance"

I thought that was bin laden? (a perpetual state of war?)
Step 1) meet a woman Step 2) go on a date step 3) sue step 4) ??? Step 5) $$$ since we all know how good we're at steps 1 and 2 O:-)

How would that help when all inbound traffic will be looking for 25? And ditto for port 80

Dude that made it is named Irfan which fyi is a south asian muslim name :)
Thought the article mentioned a different/competing tech also being developed in Israel that uses solar fuel.

Mind providing a link, I heard about the media actually reporting for a change but didnt hear about the retractions of that. Thanks
