Washington, DC [DeRoot News Service] - In other news today, the FTC's newly commissioned antispam service, after only 13 minutes in service, is out of commission.
The FTC NASR regulations currently provide no direction in regards to the service being unavailable. They simply prohibit sending an unsolicited email without having first received an "ALLOWED" response within the last 5 days for any address, before sending the message.
As the regulation also provides a $5000 fine per mailing per address for noncompliance, mass mailers are holding their mails pending an emergency regulation expected to be issued later today. A spokesman for the National Association of Bulk Mailers opined "this calamity has brought our operations to a screeching halt". Without a YES response from the [anti-spam] server, he explained, they cannot legally send their critical informational messages.
Jorge McKnightson, FTC Compliance Officer (Electronic Mail), said "FTC is working to provide a solution, optimize global value-added users, engineering cross-platform computer-assisted e-business back-end out-of-the-box eyeballs driven by documented robust e-commerce as rapidly as federal viral process precision allows. The loss of competitive next-generation infrastructures is believed to have been caused by distributed B2C metrics which deoptimized probabilistic metrics."
When pressed for a less obfuscated statement, McKnightson turned an interesting shade of puce, and mumbled what sounded like "We're working on it. The server got slashdotted."
Hello. Is this LifestyleEnhancementMortgageandStuff?
Yes, I'd like to order some Viagra.
Sure, the slicer-dicer sounds good too.
Umm..Ok. Yeah, if I'm buying all this stuff, I guess I'll need a mortgage too. Wait. Do you have paycheck cash advance? Great.Let's do $200.
No, wait. Make it 300. I'm gonna need a sixpack of Naturally Enhanced Larger Penises. That comes with a bonus minipenis? Excellent.
Erm.. Plain brown wrapper please.
Hmm.. Your comment about license comments being modded insightful was itself modded insightful.

Oh crap. My head hurts now.
5. Giving access to iTunes puts you in an interesting legal gray area. Like iChat, it provides no easy way to change accounts (in terms of iTMS). It also enables users to rip CDs. This may not be a good idea.
iTMS can be blocked by blocking access to phobos.apple.com ( 17.250.248.150 ). If there is no network admin (this being a nonprofit coffeeshop thingie) you can block it on the machine. For 10.3, edit/etc/hosts to point phobos to 127.0.0.1 . For 10.2 or earlier, you'll need to use Netinfo Manager (add an entry to Machines).
6. Unfortunately, OS X does not provide disk quotas, as far as I can tell (please, if someone knows different, clue me in!). The support is there in the filesystem, but there doesn't appear to be a UI. Keep this in mind.
There is a GUI for disk quota, but it's in Workgroup Manager, so will only be available if you also have OSX Server (on this machine, or another). This isn't terribly likely in this situation.

Thats just great. Now the entire Mojave Desert has been slashdotted.
Unless it's an older Titanium Powerbook. That sucker'll go missing every 30 feet or so.
