This is not wanted, because XMMS has always been the bastion of UI consistency. Also, while I am telling the truth, Mozilla makes any desktop look professional with its native menus and widgets. While I am still telling the truth, I am not always looking for functional replacements for Mozilla and XMMS that don't scream UGLY and awkward every time you see them.
Don't you have a sending cap? If not, you should add this anyway. Many mail worms use the regular smtp server, and I think you can safely say none of your employees should be sending more than, say, 10 emails per minute.
The proper answer is to read the AUP. If you agreed to these terms, then it's time for you to cut back or find a new ISP.
If they're laying this on you without any prior warning or detail in the AUP, then it's time to tell them to kindly fuck themselves with the nearest sharpened object. A lot of ISPs are basically saying one thing in their promotional material, and then offering something different once you're on board.
If they're saying "1.5/384" and not mentioning caps, then they owe you "1.5/384" and if they don't deliver that, then they owe you a refund. If they hold out with the demand and claim to be holding you to a service contract, you can probably drag them over the coals for breach of said contract.
In all fairness, we only have this little snapshot to go on. For all we know, the kid's been a trouble pupil and this was merely the last straw. Schools can't comment on that sort of thing, and so we'll never know the surrounding details.
Enough of the "my god, this is unfair! He should sue!" posts. Leave the frivolous lawsuit pitching to the professionals. ~Darl
His mistake was in not using the samba version of the command. There, you can manually specify the name presented for the sending party. Sending a message from the headmaster asking if any teachers could bum a smoke? Now that would have made the three day suspension something to be proud of!
If archiving SCO or other such pr0n sites, or if you have no-robots policies set on your own site that you're archiving, you'll need to tell wget to be a little rude. He needs to go where robots aren't meant to go. I figure if you were going to visit every page yourself anyway, it's not so impolite. And besides, robots.txt is for other people. You know... the ones we make ride the back of the internet.
To accomplish this: cat >>~/.wgetrc "robots = off"
If you want to be more efficient like the poster wanted, you could easily have it always
fetch to the same directory and just use cvs to check in. This eliminates duplicate storage. There are
many free web-based CVS browsers out there with date searching and
similar features. Might not be quite as nice as the wayback machine,
but it definitely does the job for free.
A lot of folks are doing a simple version of the above to maintain SCO mirrors so there's to be no history erasing before the trial. God bless you all -- it will make the case that much stronger for us.
Erm, if you go overseas to work in India or such, your standard of living is going to go way, way, way down.
Why not just accept less money than you've been asking? Look for non-profits and similar who need programmers but can't pay competitive salaries. Then, when you build up some experience, you might be worth something more than the paper the degree is printed on and won't have trouble if you decide to look elsewhere for work.
Why do you add "sarcasm" tags around my statement?
So many Mac users get all defensive and uppity around even the tiniest perceived slight against their platform.
Hint: Apple has been approaching distributors like CDBaby who carry nothing but independent music since before the service opened. The fruition of this intrigues me, tepples. Try going back and reading my statement without adding your own spin.
If you were merely karma whoring or trolling, I apologize for taking the bait.
Major publishers wine and dine the distributors, pushing hard to get their titles pushed out to the bookstores. The distributors won't listen to some nobody press without a large promotional package or a hot and controversial title.
Without distributors' backing, do you honestly plan to sit down and call all the stores yourself? Are you okay with just selling a couple dozen copies on the web and in Amazon marketplace outside the main book searches and such?
I was more intrigued by the announcement of the "iPod Micro," which supposedly makes even -more- music available than the regular iPods. It's also got some kind of wireless technology built in, which is something that people have been speculating about forever. What's odd though is that it's not 802.11b/g or Bluetooth, but rather something called "frequency modulation" in an entirely different spectrum.
They said the memory technology was called "station presets" -- anyone know what this means?
b) The remedy to pervasive DRA seems to be in OSS. Can we get to the point where OSS OS'es, wordprocessors, spreadsheets, and other office apps are "good enough" i.e. ubiquitous format and sufficient features to satisfy all but the most esoteric requirements?
I suspect that the hurdles for OSS to avoid DRM will be legislative, not technical. I seem to remember that one senator already has pushed to enact a law that no computer without DRM be allowed to connect to the internet past some date -- take that with a grain of salt however, as Google isn't unearthing any related stories for me.
The AMD64 has much more than 16 of each type of register. It has 16 user-visible integer registers, which makes for better processor optimizations. It has many more internal rename registers. I don't know how many the AMD64 has, but the Pentium4 draws its 8 integer and 8 floating-point registers from a bank of 128 internal GPRs. The AMD64 is probably comparable.
L1 cache access has exactly the same cost as register access on the Pentium 4 processors. I haven't tested it, but would be surprised if this weren't the case with AMD processors as well.
A lot of the push for faster computers is going to come from applications becoming substantially less efficient. Anyone who's used the Visual Studio.NET GUI for a major project or any other code written with.NET can tell you that it's nowhere near as lean as native Windows code, yet MS is pushing to migrate applications to.NET as it offers the company much more control of the platform.
Similarly, the applications running in curtained memory are going to stack up at an alarming rate once Longhorn and other platforms start to see pervasive digital rights management. As every bit of data being generated or passed from application to application is being tested against dozens of different filters, CPU time is going to go up in smoke, and it will be illegal to stop these activities from taking place in most countries.
Have no fear: High end systems have a
long and brilliant future
as penis extensions for spreadsheet-jockeying corporate accountants. These tiny men will
continue to demand 3.2GHz CPUs and ATI FireGL 9600s to make clippy the fastest little
bugger possible. (In this case, we can only assume that he wants to give Clippy, his only friend, his own monitor to make Excel that much more of a magical happy friend land.)
I mean, what the hell? This isn't the first time I've seen this kind of thing. Why are the guys
who are hired to pinch pennies in corporate always the ones who aren't happy until
their toilets flush with freshly imported springwater?

Either you're using the wrong tense of "to know," or you're really gullible.
Hey, I did suggest a lawsuit.

GIMP -does- this. Hover over the menu selection that you want to add a hotkey to, then just press the key combination you want to use in the future.

It's that simple.

Even if after every time I mention that, 1,001 virgins link to the post to point it out like they're discovering something non-obvious.
Companies like APC have huge R&D departments and reputations to uphold. Ever heard of this other player?
