I had one of these "flashing" phones (///), too and personally I found the permanently flashing LED annoying as hell.
It's not like the LED ever stops flashing. There is no setup-option to make it only flash when SMS is waiting or battery is low. It just flashes on and on and frequently annoys the hell out of anyone sitting nearby, e.g. when it's laying on a table.
at the moment it's more like "hey, here's some random CDs with the same words as your sentence!"
But that's how it works. Next time you search for a product (whatever it is) they know what kind of product they will be advertising to you from then on.
Oh right, I know what you're talking about. The installer then asks me whether I want to replace the offending DLL or keep the old version.
That's great! I get to choose between damaging my OS or breaking the app that I'm installing. Now that's what I call intuitive.
Offtopic: Can you guys please stop bitching at windows (stop looking at it), we all know it's broken. Rather spend the time and look at the good stuff that we can learn from Apple.
Because VPN is a sh*tload of work to set up properly. In a business environment it should ofcourse be done that way because the only alternative (post-delirious packet filtering voodoo) usually isn't an option.
But at home? You know the fun part about WLAN is that someone can come over, plug in a WiFi-Card and be "on" without too much effort.
Can't we just get sane end-to-end encryption (think WEP but done right) and be done with?
Newbies should install the current stable release (ISO download) and upgrade it to testing right away. Just edit your/etc/apt/sources.list (replace the word stable with testing) and run: apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade
2) An ISP doesn't often "change something around" that forces them to re-assign your ip addresses. Just as your phone company doesn't often "change something around" that forces them to assign you a new phone number.
*cough* Have you been causing your ISP "IP address conflicts" lately?;-)

No, I think he was talking about the gnu privacy guard.
You will need large memory buffers (similar to the size of the files) on either end of the network to handle the slowdown when waiting for the disk
Memory is cheap. Use a ramdisk (1GB or so).
Magic.

Whatever you go with (Mandrake, JDS, SuSE, Debian or whatever), you seem to be on the right track! ;-)
Drop us a line when you're assimilated!

Point here is that you can't blame your camera problems on Microsoft...
Dude, you really need a reality check...

Just edit your
except perhaps for security fixes, I don't know for how long those continue
I think security fixes are always backported to woody if they affect packages that are in woody. Please correct me if I am mistaken...
Put set ai (set autoindent) in your ~/.vimrc file. It will make your life easier.
Yes, but only until you try to make use of your middle mouse button.
You already hit +5 Insightful so I'll screw my mod-points for this thread. ;-)
I just want to add that your sig deservers +5, too!
Similar here. max_upload_rate = 10kb. Download went straight to 100kb/s after a few minutes. :-)
Mr.Torrent, we have a deal!
Low. Very, very low rider.
Why exactly is this modded insightful?
;-)
1) What the heck are you talking about?

There've been people doing this earlier, kids.
Worst design?
Oh nevermind, they're in for that already.
The only controversy it started at my place was about why they put this f!@#$%ing crap music on it. The pictures were pretty, the audio was awful.
"too useful to be moved to ports" (bind, sendmail)
Useful, eh?
There is a new LAMP: Linux, Apache, Magic, PostgreSQL
;-)
By my expirience PgSQL helps to scale your magic while MySQL rather prevents it from happening.
the ThinkGeek Cappucino
Isn't the cappucino from the early generation of "mini-PCs" which were loud due to cooling requirements (fan-noise!)?
I want it silent so I'd rather consider a Shuttle XPC Zen or something like that.
/dev/hda4 /tmp vfat user,noexec,noauto 1 1
works great! (yes, i dual-boot)
I can imagine some eBay engineers sweating.
Don't worry, your managers will make some expensive agreement before one of the spiders can hit you.
Ah, you guys are talking about RSS.
