Yes, but you can't really find free 1gig FTP accounts, it's hard enough (if not impossible) to find free 1gig web accounts.
I'm pretty sure someone will come up with a script that splits large files to 10mb chunks and sends them to a Gmail account.
A possible, but expensive, way to fight this is to routinely scan stored attachments for sequential names, e.g. GTA3_0.rar, GTA3_1.rar and flag them for admin review if the total is 200mb or over.
That sounds a little like the Yahoo Briefcase, except in this case they can't grant access to the public.
However, they wouldn't even have to do that. The 'distributors' can simply send the files to their GMail account, tell others to create new accounts and send files to them (which is basically a matter of copying files on local server, isn't it?).

I think the previous poster had in mind the abandoning of RedHat 9 line.
In terms of software itself, how is the new RH Desktop going to differ from old RedHat distros, RedHat Worksation, or Fedora? Is it simply Fedora + support or a come back to where they left off with RH 9?
The images are on scammers` sites (they're hot linked), so if they're not working, it means something's going on, e.g. running out of bandwith (i.e. the system works).
You have a valid point, but considering how badly some of those sites are designed, I doubt that most of the 'webmasters' in question can figure out how to block image hot linking. Another thing is whether they have access to.htaccess/fp at all - not all web hosting companies provide such facilities.
Obviously I'm assuming that using Ghost doesn't count, so here's the list:
1. Drivers, Windows updates
2. Total Commander
3. AVG Antivirus
4. EditPlus
5. Mozilla
6. DScaler (TV)
7. Nero
8. MinGW and Cygwin
9. Java SDK
10. Acrobat
It's not that funny.
Amiga E is a pretty good language for starters, think of C and Pascal mix with some support for objects; unfortunately the compiler is written in M68K assembler making it hardly portable. Then there's Power D, which AFAIK is based on Amiga E (unsure about it).
Sorry, it's a bit OT...
I'm currently in my 3rd year of CS studies, and have very little commercial experience. It seems most employers require at least 2 years of experience, except for those offering graduate programs (the places are very limited).
Over the past few years I've been involved in a few open source projects (started some, and contributed to others), and I wonder whether I can use that experience in my job hunting? Will that count as actual experience? Otherwise it'd be pretty hard for me to prove that e.g. I know Java, Perl, etc.
First actual case of bug being found.

The article doesn't mention that Hopper was the first person to find a 'bug' - http://www.jamesshuggins.com/h/tek1/first_computer _bug.htm
Also we ought to mention Ada Lovelace - Enchantress of Numbers, Founder of Scientific Computing, whoe helped Babbage with the Analytical Machine.
Does that mean the rover could be "brain dead"? I.e. it's heart could still be working, that's why NASA hears the blips from radio, but it's brain (software or hardware) could be dead, damaged or in some sort of temporary coma caused by environment.
A few posts mention that.NET is for Windows only. That's completely untrue..NET executables can be run on Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X, maybe even other platforms in near future..NET Runtimes:
Mono - http://go-mono.com - C# and VB
DotGNU - http://dotgnu.org - C#
For Windows, the Microsoft's.NET Framework is the winner, being almost twice as fast as Mono, with DotGNU being the slowest, but I've only done synthetic SciMark2 benchmarks.
(Also don't forget you can compile Java to.NET assembly:)

Quite a lot of people still think that .NET is some sort of evil spyware application/privacy invasion THING.
What do you mean by 'GMail shared store'? Is it possible to find out the permament URL of an attachment?
> Unless google plans on checking users mail (invasion of privacy) (...)
GMail system is supposed to scan messages to figure out what ads to attach, so I'm pretty sure they'll add additional scanning routines.

How about Sealand?

Your friend killed himself with a rock and you just laugh at that?
I think you meant 'Un*x'

That's right, Win2K had it at least since 1999, and I'm absolutely sure there are much earlier examples.
Sites like that should be blue listed, ermm I mean black listed.

Wrong. It was $200, then it was posted to spam databases, and now it's $-1.

For modem users - Cube 419
For cable users - Scammers Nightmare
And here's an alternative - Lad Vampire
Come on, don't be shy, give them some good slashdotting - it's good fun for the whole family!
Why 419, where did this number come from?
:)
On a side note, are the '420' people more susceptible to '419' scams?

I'd like to see Meastro using SWT, it'd be heaps faster. But... is Java3D "compatible" with SWT?
