It seems the source for this is still unavailable. Does anyone know where to get binaries or a similar program?
The concept is fantastic and would certainly help in security. Although, I'd prefer to have a text version similar to how Nethack displays in text mode.
Call me old school, can't shake my affinity for text only Linux.:P
No doubt, when a company gets past the event horizon, it can make some nervous. Boston has a great tune about cooling the engines. I'd like to see Google continue good success with a smart hand on the throttle.
There are a dwindling number of web pages without Google Ads, is it really a good idea to be saturating the entire Internet experience with everything Google?
Afterall, is not variety the spice of life?
Rivalling the replication success of viruses through a symbiosis steeped in capitalism, is the Internet destined to become one great big Googlenet?
Since my mind is numb from working my ass off today, this is all I could muster.
Although, when my ebay purchased Canadian hacked ReplayTV kicks the bucket and I'm forced to build a MythBox, maybe I'll have something more intelligent to say.
Next time your in a doctor's office, ask to see their drug indications guide. You should be given a thick manual with pages of fine print on all the available drugs and the interactions/warnings of each.
The scary part is that it will be choked full of advertising. For example; notice the thick tabbed glossy insert for "Viagra".
However, it does beg the question, "What is a doctor?" If they are being swayed by advertising and free samples, than they are nothing more than a sales agent.
That be said, there are no doubt a class of doctors who see beyond this garbage and choose to educate themselves to offer an unbiased and professional service for their clients.
Good on ya, if you have found the later, otherwise you might as well just subject yourself to experimental meds.
Stuff like this should be put into a "Slashdotted?" FAQ to help those trying to cope with such loads. Albiet, it may be to late for some, others can use it as a precursor to article submissions.
Now just a couple of stories down, you'll see the number of comments for "VoIP Services to be Regulated in Canada" sits as of this writing at 90. Here we have over 450.
To get to the point, one thing I so admire in America, is the fact that people are more actively debating important policies. Albiet this is a US site with greater population, it sure contrasts the passiveness in the North.
Since my son is an American, these decisions do affect me so I'll chuck in my wooden nickle.
Combining Driver ID and Iraq Spending sounds like something a Canadian politician would do. The driver ID might turn out to be similar to Canada's gun registry. A complete waste of tax payers money. More spending in Iraq to the tune of $86 Billion???
What is the US National Debt at now anyway? Where are you getting all this money?
VOIP should still have a lot of room to move on prices, even though you can currently get VOIP for $10/month with 500 minutes from Comwave.net. To compare apple to apples, Shaw's $55 service is Vonage's $40 or Comwave's $30. So we already have healthy competition. Unless you set the minimum to something less than $10, how will this new regulation benefit Canadians if you force companies to raise that price?
Pigs get slaughter, whores get... Telus is a legal monopoly owning all Yellow pages advertising and if not for competition to the east it would own all Canadian telecom.
"The phone companies told the CRTC last fall during VoIP hearings that more competition and less regulation would be good for consumers and the industry" Your going to tell me that telephone companies want competition? Come on off it! The only option to Telus is a reconnect service costing $80/month. That's more like the competition they are seeking. . . . . . . . . . . . There needs to be regulation all right: [warning you are entering a rant area]
Time to slaughter the pigs and make some room for the little guy, but before this can happen the Canadian political landscape needs a major facelift. Heck we still do everything in the name of "The Crown - Queen of England". You have to go no further than Adrian Clarkson, (the Queen's rep.) who has a law that she can't be audited for all that wasted money. http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNew s/1076676942066_12/ How ridiculous is that? Lets see something like that fly south of the border.
Trouble with this proposal is that it stinks of skulduggery. Politics, thanks to the Sponsorship Scandal and many other boondoggles are not trustworthy here in Canada. Big companies will continue to marionette our government with their sneaky sleazeball tactics. Meanwhile the Media, owned by the later, will continue to spoon feed the passive, apathetic public with tidings of good joy. Oh and lets not forget that this bureaucracy comes at a price! Time to raise taxes from 50% to 60? How many more ways can we tax a dollar?
Until our government becomes an entity of sincere interest for the benefits of its people, with a system of promoting true leaders into the voting arena, will I believe that there is any good to come of said regulation.
Love the preamble: "We have no photographs of our CEO strutting past server racks, or of women in telephone headsets ready to take your call, but we hope you'll consider joining us all the same."
Impressive to say the least.
Being one who prefers the text driven world, even the name appeals to me. Thanks for that one!
That's the ideal situation then. Web Farm, Bandwidth, Proper configuration.
Now you would think this would exist at something like Grok.
How would you simulate a slashdotting? Just a DDOS?
It would be a fun project to see what can make a single server on a broadband connection survive a slashdotting such that the network connection fails *not* the server. Document it and give tips about using mirrors, router config, etc.

...storage?

If you can flip the spin of an electron, wouldn't that be a condensing of our current storage technology?
However, after doing a Google for the size of an electron as compared to an atom, this road bump chucked my question out the window.

Couldn't help but notice the Google Ad infection.
So can't be too much different.
roflmao!
outrageously funny.
Road block.
Need to install another Hard Drive.
My 3Gb of 9 year old SCSI technology is full.
Not to the fault of a 190k BSOD, but because I need g++ version > 2.95.
And to install that version of g++ I need more space.
From the INSTALL file:
The bsod server requires:
* libtrace (http://research.wand.net.nz/software/)
* g++-3.0 or greater (known to work with 3.0, fails with 2.95)
In the famous words of Arnold: "I'll be back"
LOL!

Dell out of the box has Norton and AOL by default.
A winning combination.
sweet!
Thanks for my new project.
Looks like the client will run on Windows so I don't have to setup a graphical X machine.
Let you know how it goes.

lol, there is no doubt that if chat is popular with the computer crowd, a rub will also be!
you /. one of these devices?
Can't help but envision the future where your touch device is something you can have groups of people collaborating in all at once.
Porn aside, since human touch can be one of the most positive feelings, maybe this will have a good impact on society.
Now que in the "rub and tug" jokes.

I bought into the Double Layer hype.
The price of the CDs are prohibatively expensive.
So no mater how many layers you cram onto a CD, unless the price is worthwhile, its useless.
Dam good response.

What is even funnier is that I don't normally get this many replies to posts.

Guess you have to have an Offtopic mod.
Been trying like hell to squeeze some info on good strategies to hardening systems against slashdotting, hence the "?" in the Subject line.
Maybe its time to submit a question,(for rejection), to "Ask Slashdot"
If I put a Google spin on it somehow maybe it will push through.
new is what new does.
