Maybe its kludge code left over to make it compatible with code generated by older versions of frontpage. After all having your browser incompatible with your web authoring software isn't very monopolistic behaviour.
There arn't a lot of consumer x86 boards out there which will redirect console to a com port, I have an old PPro board which will do it, but not to the extent it will let you enter and config the bios.
Looking outside x86 however sparc64 would suit you, if there is no keyboard in the system it defaults to terminal via the first serial port (or whatever you set in OpenFirmware) This may be true of other OpenFirmware users (Only Apple springs to mind currently)
I did have a point to this post, i think it may have been, look outside x86 for your servers
I remember this game well, first one I bought for the PC, with its funky code wheel copy protection, I probably still have it around somewhere, probably with the 2600 and C64 games
The lack of numeric keypads on apple keyboards is probably more down to ergonomics. The keypad was one of the biggest causes of RSI/CTS back when computers and terminals were used for masses of number input.
Thats an interesting idea, do supermarket scanners fry the RFID chips embeded in the products when they are scanned or do the anti-theft monitors check whats going past the scanners against whats been sold recently?
Their goal was to run up the bandwidth bills of spammers. If a spammed site is hosted somewhere with a bandwidth quota they didn't take it offline in the slashdotting sence, they achived their goal
We don't know how lycos is distributed the lists of targets, if it was down to me I would be distributing an IP address and the hostname the server uses.
You connect to the ip address and request what you want from the host, the server knows your request the same way an apache vhosted server knows what you want.
The lycos make love not spam screensaver isn't a bad thing, nor is it illegal, it is just screensaver based slashdotting.
Its not sending random packets to the sites, its not icmp flooding them its just quietly viewing them.
The screensaver is just like adding a couple of hundred thousands extra idiots to the internet who read their spam and visit the websites.
I don't know what useragent string the screen saver sends, but I hope it looks like a browser, otherwise logfiles of the spammer's sites will be able to target users of the screen saver based on ip address in revenge attacks, which shouldn't be that difficult anyway but I won't go into how since you never know who is reading/.
Spam is bad, slashdotting is bad, slashdotting spammers? Well I guess two wrongs do make a right!
However because it is just solid structure, there is no reason why you coulnd't build a macro version out of say VAXen and then you'd have your digital sundial!
The recent music to come out of the UK hasn't been the usual global tripe. Looking pretty and being able to sing won't sell records anymore, posters maybe but not records.
The fact that bands are back is why sales are up, seeing the guys and gals with the instruments is a good thing, more so when it comes to live performances like V or Glastonbury.
There is still room in the UK for gimic groups, take GLC for example, it put Aberdare on the map! (if you don't know of GLC (or Goldie Looking Chain ) its like a cross between Eminem, Weird Al and Tom Jones... White, Welsh comedy rap)
The future is bright, the future is turned up to Whut-ohh!
Slashdot Mirror
With my nVidia card I simply set the display to clone and force MPC to run at 1024x768 so the TV gets the full image
The first one was obviously the project planning page, they obviously have source code to compile now.
Give it a couple of weeks we'll see the first alpha of this list!
smile, its Friday
wouldn't that be the iRobot, and wasn't there a film with that title, which wasn't related to a book with the same title, released last year?

So thats where child processes come from!
since when was eminem ever popular or cultured?
Thats nothing! MD2 was invented in 1989!
:\
I couldn't find MD1

Well i guess its time to find out how well the svr4/sunos emulation in freebsd holds up and run the native version

I'll see your fascist theocracy and raise your a technological dictatorship.
All hail friend computer!
Unless you are an evil commie trator!
Damn kids, that was Aerosmith not Run DMC

That sounds alot like Mech Commander, which yes in all honesty was just syndicate with Mechs
Just because you don't get the reference it doesn't mean its off topic, do a searching before modding.
Viva La Red Dwarf!

Would you need to throw an OpenBSD machine into a pond so the Blowfish don't suffocate in the air?
Would a NetBSD machine just install itself into the ground and keep running?
Would a BeBox look pretty but have no practical side effects?
Would an OS/2 plant just refuse to die?
Would a Solaris plant charge you for the tree and give you the fruit for free and then randomly change its mind and reverse its views?
Thank you, thank you, I'll be here 'til Thursday, try the veal!
*rolls d20* pleased by this anniversary
Not really, its just closing one lane of the highway to re-open with two
