Ahh yes.. BITNet. Back in the days when sending a full Byte through ByteNet could literally cost you an arm and a leg (aging process isn't nice on the body).
I've heard that the department of funny walks has been looking for a way to encode the description of the walks so that they can safely distribute instructions without worrying about non-members.
I completely agree with that statement. But the key here is to actually take out the Terrorists themselves and their internal group not just bomb their surroundings or hit their minions.
Not quite. Afghans weren't always tribal and primitive -- but they sure are now. If we take a ride in the 'way back' machine and investigate them in the 20s through 30s we see a fairly typical standard of living for that time period.
Generally that means it'll dip to 40 during the rough spots. Perhaps you don't notice it so much -- but it's there when it's a tight battle which is exactly when you want a high refresh and low ping.
This was a piddly little attack against the US compared to what will occur if your attitude persists.
If this is anything but a stealth operation with a highly refined plan of attack with specific targets in mind it will cause many many more innocent americans to die as a result -- on US soil no less.
Are you really ready to sacrifice 1Million people in, say.. LA so you can kill a few million Afganistanies (sp?)?
Anyway, end result, the people of Afganastan are in no different a position than the Jewish were in Germany not that long ago. I wasn't around; but I'm fairly sure Americans didn't go after the Jewish to get back at the Germans in charge.
If apache had a buffer overflow bug it would be exactly as succeptable to spread as IIS. All you have to do is tag along your an apache module that you load dump into a memory segment and start running with. It may be possible for apaches controlling process to notice infection in another process and kill processes with excessivly high load -- bug then it just gets re-infected again:)
I've always thought that was hilarious that the installer was written in Java to provide the ultimate (matter of opinion) portability would have actually worked better if it was written in assembly strictly for redhat on 386.
Given the luck of the Russians and others in doing just that in the past, are you really willing to let 10K soldiers die strictly for revenge?
If so, what do you do to get revenge of the soldier who die? Send in more?
As another poster noted, you could also compare this area to be under Nazi control and heavily populated by the Jewish. Still want to send in the troups?
Ok, use IMAP and each user will be storing mail on the mailserver (where it belongs). That brings mailboxes up to an average of 250MBs each (4 months of corporate, attachment filled mail).
Now toss in LDAP for global address book, server side indexing services (search engine), web based access to the email (for when they're away), full crypto (SSLd IMAP, SMTP, web and LDAP access -- outlook takes these nicely).
I'd be surprised if your single machine could handle the disk and network IO requirements -- let alone anykind of high availability (failover to what, itself?).
Anyway, switching from Sendmail to qmail will help bring back a few resources but not enough:)
Once you start hitting a limit of Network, processes, memory and doing active disk work you'll usually find a locking error somewhere in the kernel. Doesn't seem to matter what OS it is.
Our Postgres DB on the old Ultra2s used to go down hard when we managed to load up 5000 active transaction. Solaris died hard on an SMP locking issue. Since solaris is one of the better OSs where SMP goes we were rather shocked...
We've since upgraded. Bandwidth and disk are max'd out with a benchmark, but the CPUs are only at around 90% load rather than closer to 100%.
You know, this whole wireing issue doesn't exist if you use a magnetic laser type mechanism (read -- standard laser printer which creates electrostatic charge).
The difference is the second time you run it through the paper it can print white as well as black to overwrite what already existed.
Perhaps they process some kind of material with sunlight and produce carbon dioxide? There are a ton of reactions that leave that as a result -- we just don't have them in our plants here.
Perhaps it's just me, but doesn't Java require an OS underneath it to interpret it? Yeah, I know you can compile machine code -- but thats not the same thing:)
Mayhaps I've not done enough Java code to realize it's full ability.
Slashdot Mirror
They wanted BSDi which is a commercial and closed source product.

Wouldn't that prove that he chose the best path in the first place? :)

Yeah, but keep in mind thats 80fps on average.

You didn't look very hard for the laptop.
www.ibm.com. Half their stuff is win98, the other half is win2k.
Sircam is completely harmless on Windows too -- until you let the users get involved who run the damn thing.

Hmm.. I think I'll start sending myself a hundred or so megs of email a day through a bounce address. Encrypted properly of course.
That way when / if I do something they'll have to sift through several GBs of encrypted random dictionary words.
Security through obscsurity baby..

I'm assumming thats the reason it's going on the market. One last hurra for the the owners, then bail over the next year or 2.
If I'm not mistaken spandex, kevlar and velcro all started out as educational items until someone found a use for them.
My favorite is the story of the postit note -- started out as a super glue which didn't stick so well...
If you look at it that way, then StarOffice can be done in under 1MB. You just have to install around 50MBs of libraries first.
Do you know how big ispell, perl, tk, and all their dependencies are? Comes out to a fairly large editor anyway.
Umm.. 2 of those use make world :)

Of course, using it was made easier because it basically involved a one line change in applications -- that's the benefit of Object Orientation.
This has almost nothing to do with OO and much more to do with good planning. One can do 'amazing patches' like this in well planned assembly too.
OO may however make it easier to do planning in advance, however I don't believe so.

Thats just disk and bandwidth limitation.
Once you start hitting a limit of Network, processes, memory and doing active disk work you'll usually find a locking error somewhere in the kernel. Doesn't seem to matter what OS it is.

Actual use is an order of magnitude lower usage.
If I'm not mistaken, the whole point of the experiments is to find out what Quantom Gravity is like.
