I was actually looking for a way to mod a laptop to put on a rack shelf to take inputs (VGA/KBD/Mouse) from a server also in that rack. Essentially I want to make a cheap kbd/mouse/monitor 1u shelf, without spending $2000 on a real one. Is there any easy way to use the monitor/mkb/scrollpad from an old laptop to do this?
Thank for all suggestions...I was gonna "ask slashdot" but after this ques mine will never be accepted. Thx.
By my calculations, assuming air ionizes about 10,000 Volts / centimeter, a 50MV line should be at least 5,000 cm (or 50 meters) from any ground. 50 meters on either side of a line is a lot of property for an electical company to buy, and with a surge in the line I'd bet the distance would need to be even more.
I think the difference is that a site like ratemyteachers.com solicits users opinions, and attempts to censor them to remove the libelous material. Slashdot, OTOH, just leaves everything be (minus the moderation system, but that only ranks not censors) so it remains the authors original work.
Ooo...you're so 1337...you can change NY Times's passwords given the current login credentials. Why don't you just stop being a dick and let people use that account.
Aggregate Expenditure = C + I + G - T + X - M, the 'M' is for iMports.
The more we import this labor from India, the more we hurt our own economy. The issue isn't so much the quality of labor as it is the effect it has on our gross national product, price level, and ultimately overall condition of the economy (deflation, loss of jobs, etc).
Well just how much traffic are we talking about? Keep in mind that the slashdot effect will wear off soon, particularly when this story drops off the front page.
Just remember, Google was created by Sergey Brin and Larry Page, two Stanford compsci geeks like most/.ers. I'd bet the last thing they'd do is pay out licensing fees to SCO, no matter how miniscule the cost.
OWJones: "...tens of thousands of blacks -- an ethnic group in which 91% voted for Gore -- were "mistakenly" labeled as felons and removed from the rolls. A lawyer for the company that put the list together explains."
Actually, ten thousand African Americans (singular - 12,000 isn't tens) were mislabeled, representing 41% of the mislabeled group. If you look here, you'll notice that 43.91% of incarcerated Americans are black (Apr 2003). Given this statistic, it doesn't seem out of place for 41% of that group to be composed of them.
Now why blacks make up only 12.32% of Americans and almost 44% of inmates is another issue entirely (that has many lurking variables, so the association doesn't necessarily imply any such causation)
You can twist statistics to say anything that you want, but in the end the numbers don't lie.
Hmm...I see to remember timeliness being one of the eight factors that makes a good news story. This would have been an excellent article to report, had it been posted on 23 APR 02! Just FYI.
...of my script-kiddie years in middle school. Of course our clients were all win95, and the server was winnt 4.0, so we had to use winpopup to send nasty messages to the admins (via other users accounts, of course).
My high school actually just recently disabled the alerter service on all computers in the domain, after installing WinXP/Win2k to every lab and having some freshman let everyone know that they were "1337". The head of technology came to the network technicians demanding to know how this 'virus' had made it to her desktop. Perhaps thats why our most utilized computers are still 233s and the ones collecting dust are all new P4's....gotta love mismanagement!

Wouldn't "unpickable proof" indicate that it is indeed pickable? Ohh, silly me...English doesn't matter on the Internet.
Windows XQ?
I was looking for something like this just the other day...better than distrowatch!

The web site you are trying to access has exceeded its allocated data transfer...

Anyone with an actual mirror?
Actually, this was previously posted on /.:
Random NYTimes.com Registration Generator
You'll have to block referer or save the page locally, however, because NYT blocked all registrations originating from that domain.

Anyone else notice the 503 last nite?

Yeah well work computers, libraries, etc...sometimes we can't help it. Gotta have my /.
...the forums are down. Too bad, I was looking for an update on FB 0.8 (due out in Mid-Dec).
Ugh...correction. The drive's 1TB, not 1TiB. Thats like 90GB lost to marketing!
Funny, that's the first thing I tought as well. Imagine transfering a TiB at USB 1.1 speeds, you'd be there all day...literally.

Boy...that was fast. I guess ppl think they're being all religous buying their toner from monks.
