Linux on an old (FREE! =) computer that I got from a friend running iptables and tc (Traffic control) is the best combo of stability, manageability, and QOS I've ever seen in a home router. It runs @ 266 MHZ w/ a Pentium 2 on it and 128M of ram. It was the biggest POS I could find and I still think its overkill.
I LOVE living in a place that treats every lawsuit as if the defendant is guilty. For example, if i sue you over the rights to your property, even if I don't have ANY proof, I can prevent you from selling your home for as long as I can keep appealing the courts (hopefully) sane decision. Just think about what would happen if you were about to move and I did that. What if you were a corporation moving out of a factory building. The upkeep, the security risk, the TCO of the place could sink you if I kept you in court long enough. I hate that this country allows that sort of BS.
I used to notice the flicker, but 60Hz is all the monitors can handle. I now can filter it out unless I chose to notice. Hope my eyes don't fall out...

Cthulhul exists in non-euclidian space devised before the foundations of the world were set and in place before the gods themselves concieved the notion of life other than themselves. He seeks chaos and disorder, a lofty goal for a god, which implies at least the order of importance and power. Worshipped by none but the blackest and considerably the most evil of clans, he is myserious and barely held in check from reigning chaos in this place we think of as the plane of existance. If he has his way we would be driven mad somply by the nature of space-time and the gods themselves may fall to his mighty, twisted wiil. Their minds traped in the smae maze of space-time that traped us mere mortals, and driven insane by the reality that is manifest by the mere presence of Cuthulhu.
So, yeah, Cthulhu, kinda makes sense. He was trapped in the bowels of the earth, ya know. And he is described as having a squid's head with the body of a dragon (strong scaly arms and troso, as is linked in another post). So yeah, the god of chaos is being released, at least in story form, and I couldn't be happioer, it reads so well.
Ok, I'm responding to an AC, but I can't resist. Hyperthreading can SLOW DOWN your computer. Why? Because the two tinstructions that are supposed to execute similtaniously aren't allways on the same set of data, due to poor scheduling. This means that data is 'thrashed' in and out of low level cache to higherlevel cash and main system memory. Even with dual channel support on cheap chips it dosn't make up for the fact that their processor can't keep up with AMD's on operations (read: they could, in theory, get more data to the cpu, but can't do much with it fast enough), and as far as hyperthreading making the desktop more responsive, well, this MAY be true, in similarly performing chips, but save the cash from an intel HT chip, and buy a higerperforming AMD at the same price (most likely a 64 w/ hypertransport) and your latency issues will go DOWN. Intel hasn't made a decent chip since the P3, and I never even bothered to invest in a p4 because of the price to performance disparity between AMD and intel. I don't expect intel to be the lagger for much longer, but they have a lot of work to do to get the price down, and the performance up (across the board, not just in synthetic benchmarks). Thats just the way I sees it.

I agree, haven't had any probs, save for 1 drive crash, and i have migrated the array twice to new boxes. I love the idea of firewire, too, it makes perfect sense, 'cause if you are gonna have raid reliability, then you might as well have hot-swap. (note to self: save up for firewire enclosures).
I would have 2 years of uptime, but NOOOOO 1 national power outage and 1 drive crash (perfect recovery). Uptime 71 days =( [I WAS at 260 at one point] just make sure that the drives are up to that much spin-time, and mix brands so that 2 crashes at once are less than likely. Once you can afford it get a hot spare or two for backups for when one does fail.
One question...

How did the clump of neurons know what they were trying to accomplish?
More precicely, why didn't they try to crash the plane? What sort of positive/negative feedback did they use?
I understand that this works, and vaugely how it works, but i can't wrap my poor little brain around what sort of feedback they used!
*COUGH*UNION*COUGH*
I know not everyone would join, but have you ever tried to work in the auto industry w/o being in a union!? Your co-workers go ape-nuts. This is just encouraging (better?) nurse unions, and if it catches on other unions as well.
Man, that was a great thing we coulda had. I hope something survived. The aerogelshould have survived (I think that the fracture strength is enough to survive 100mph impact, if they put it in a safe spot in the capsule, someone with engineering know-how look at the numbers).
At least this foley didn't kill anyone, or hurt any property to my knowledge. Hope we still get some data. If not at least we have a crater.
I think this is a rather bloody usefull thing, it seems to relate to specific things beyond the stdlib. This would allow c-programers to have an open and completely portable library for all of their applications specific to apache webservers. I think that this is a great idea. I could test a module on my linux box, and then take the souce to my bsd webserver and compile without a hitch, and with a guarntee of it working.
That is a vauge example, but I can see the use in this, and if it becomes common it will be trivial to move web apps between servers, upgrades, etc.
I like this, they aren't trying to give us a whole new language to use, but instead a tool to use with our other existing tricks and tools.
Also the quote on the botom of the page is quite appropriate, "My folks didn't come over on the Mayflower, but they were there to meet the boat."
Use both!
You say its easier than ever to find the soloution to each one of these hashes, so just use em both. I really think that the number of collisions that occur similtaniously are a bit fewer and farther between. I think that will be secure until we find a better and decently fast hash.
RTFA. There was more to it than that, the article ended with a comment on how we should at lest treat people as human beings. I think that would be fair. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty in this country for a reason: everyone deserves to be treated the same. You start to judge people in any way (including being disrespectful) you have taken a piece of their freedom. There is no perfect system, but there needs to be a bit more common sense in it all. For example: Did the guy need to almost yank her father over when he examnined his belt? Could he have asked real quick, or said "Can I see your belt buckle?". Just RTFA real quick (its not that long) and says what I think needs saying: "This system is insane, lets tweak it."
My vision of secure electronic voting involves lots of public keys of ridiculous length, a hard copy receipt available (hex or something printable with lots of redundancy to ensure that an unreadable letter would not mess with a re-count and a barcode like label on there to be easily read by a scanner is a re-count was necessary), a few datacenters around the nation that each receive the results individually from each vote (the vote is sent to each of them with a different key from the user's computer) and no user names or passwords are used, simply a code from you voting card coupled with your SSN and name, perhaps each voting card would be unique to the year (automated sending every year for registered voters, etc to not complicate the matter for regular voters). I cannot see where RSA encryption would be insecure, and our government can trust a LOT more sensitive data to datacenters. The results could be tabulated on-site at each of the data centers and announced. Hell, we could probably get away with a STRIGHT VOTE in stead of this Electoral Collage crap. If there is one week spot its in sending your voting card to you via the mail, but most people trust their tax returns with the mail and more sensitive data than even that! I'm not seeing how getting E-voting to work is hard, ad even if only a few use it at first they will convince others! This whole being stuck in the 1900's blows, lets modernize this "Democracy" for the love of pie!
No. The Pixels are not stretched, they remain squares, the color is inteigently manipulated by Photo Shop or whatever, but the pixels are not moved. The picture on a digital medium would be a perfect replica (or almost perfect for lossy compression) of what you were working on. The 'pixel constructin' is refering to the way that the colors are aranged on the image, particularly on the edges of objects. These colors, and their locations will transfer to paper, jpeg, gif, etc. So long as the replica is of suitable quality, there will be traces of the forgery. A 'consistant pixel construction' just means that all the colors make sense if the picure was real and taken all at once.
Why would the FCC worry about the gain on these antennas? The transmitter can only pump out so much juice, and as far as I know the gain of the antenna can't boost the TX power (only direct it), and only the amount to power that is RX'ed is boosted. Someone please explain why High Gain antennas are/were evil to the FCC?
I'm not sure how conclusive this could be, but I just wraped my cell-phone in aluminium foil (1 layer), and toutched my computer case and it for a ground. When I opened it up the cell phone showed no signal for a few seconds before it caught the signal again.
So, unless this wallaper is cheper than foil, I'd go w/ foil, cause it would also make a farady cage if grounded.
Windows could be a prob, but some aluminium on the far side of the blinds would help =)
Someone try this with a w-fi card and tell me the results, lets get a knowledge base goin here!

Malicious code executing itself via a buffer overflow is actually one of the lesser evils in the virus world. Most users will gladly allow anything to run on their box, especially if it does something cool (time, weather, cutesy things, etc), and with everyone being root on Windows boxes, this means the program can do whatever the hell it wants and windows won't say anything/much.
The NX bit is great, especially for servers where generally the only kind of attack is a buffer overflow. Like I said the procesor has learned well, but the users must learn also.
I just wanna know if I was the only one that did the caculation of Fry's intrest on his 93 cents? (on a Ti-83 none the less, they used a palm, wusses) Also, who else here was the only one in the room cracking up hen the professor complained about the quantum finish?
Those little things that go into futurama are what make it worth my time to watch, and that is sying a lot.

If we were to get a warp drive to work, then that would be our ultimate shield. All this nonsense with electrical this, and radiation that is pointless. All you have to do is warp space in such a way that it creates a vessel in which the spacecraft can exist, but that joins the otter boundary of the 'pocket' into one point. essesntially the pocket plane would not exist from the outside, and since no disturbance of the surrounding space would be apparent by the radiation passing through that point of set of points it would be a perfect cloak. Propulsion would simply involove warping a 'door' on one side of you pocket plane, and connecting that plane to another set of points a certain distance away.
Simple, just as soon as we can manipulate space and time like LSD manipultes the mind with the skill and artistry of Davinci and at speeds aproching that of light.
