Grand Admiral Kirk will be commanding a join fleet of the Federation & their allies (Klingon, Romulan and Cardassian empires) in the last final battle against Borgs.
After the battle ends, whole alliance will face the futility.
Do Google search for "SK-7551". First hit is the right choice. It is a no name chinese product, but I am quite happy with it.
It is actually an infrared keyboard set, with standalone PS2 key/PS2 mouse set-top infra receiver. PS2 mouse on the keyboard is actually a little joystick on the right side and it has plenty of multimedia/internet buttons on the top. Perfectly fits multimedia applications. And finger joystick mouse is usable without any desk, even in bed.
I got suddenly a second hand piece with keys localised to my native language for about 5$. A fantastic peripheral for linux flashed iPaq for me.
No it does not. Spammers don't play fair. Here are my observations:
For every unsubscribe request, spammers may or may not actually unsubscribe.
Always, attempt to unsubscribe qualifies your address as a validated one.
Spammers always sell validated addresses to other spammers, whether they actually unsubscribed it or not.
Conclusion: after unsubscribe you always recieve more spam than before.
Best strategy is don't touch any spam links. Often they are encoded with uids associatable with your address somewhere in the wild.
Me builds a personal database of spam contractors (domains referenced by spam). An idea, those IP lists could be great for use in stealth nmap of a certain.gov site, hopefully bringing a lot of attention to them.
If I would be a web browser designer/engineer, I'd force a privilege degradation for browser process. Just like web server runs under user apache and ftp runs under ftp, browser would be running under user "browser". Saving stuff only to some dedicated "download" area, no-no executable filesystem by default with proper quarantine checks. So the user should manually move stuff into his property to execute it, if she wants to. Or run it in other jail.
Technically, it is possible to do it on KDE desktop for example, with a little shell scripts and/or.desktop shortcuts to run as a different user.
Perhaps a distro aggregators should prepare such environment for moron users by default.
1. Go look at Distrowatch web site, (sorry, no link, find your own country mirror), there are hundreds of linux distros, a dozen of releases every day. 2. Pick one and install. 3. Repeat until completely satisfied.
There are consistently coming times of the overabusing law for the capricious wilfulnes.
Only long time historic result could be a law will be considered of a low value and dishonorable by the common society, making a living much harder in future, because of oppression and enforcing.
"Nothing in the whole country can even dent an Abrams tank."
Perhaps you are a victim of your government propaganda. U.S. actually lost dozens of M1 in Iraq. No need for depleted uranium to kill Abrams, a recent RPG with melted copper core is sufficient.
"The US soldiers have the best protection, the best fire power, the best communications, recon etc..."
In Falujah setback, hundreds of US soldiers were even hungry for days because of total destruction of dozens of supply convoys from Baghdad. That was the reason for retreat and negotiation.
The problem is leaders are often overconfident with weapon effectiveness, while field tactics is always more important in real life.
Perhaps that stupid mind setup has culture roots in computer so-called "strategy" games, where resource economics and sheer power via upgraded tech wins the map.
Since saturday, united Europe has 450+ millions of people. Much better educated than usians. Within a few years, U.S. economics could not compete in technology.
Perhaps, America will become an agricultural second world country?
Again, the defendants are listed only by their university IP addresses.
In cultures where legality is sane, you cannot sue a number.
What does really interest me, that in corporate America an IP gets its legal personality somewhat magically. Technically, a single IP does not imply identity with one person. What if it is NATed?
The adequate question comes to my mind: Do IP addreses have constitutional rights in U.S.?
Imagine, for example: "Vote 192.168.0.1 for President!"

So they are about to ban all computers, eh?
Due to lack of math education, lawyers and authorities simply cannot understand what an universal computation machine is, a math abstraction. So they really want to outlaw a class of abstract algorithms. I would call that idiocy, but I wan't be moderated down troll so I call it ignorancy.
So at the 2024 we who keep around all open source packages ever touched, will be all using Quake 13's "scanning mod" feature instead of illegal nmap...
If it goes really, really wrong with the law, we can always implement a Turing machine with cells represented by file names of silly word documents in a single directory. Written in shell or cmd, it could still be faster than mainframes were 30 years ago. With that, say HOW one can distinguish DATA from CODE, if one cannot grasp the semantics?
Or example for an underground network: today's sending a tcp packet would be equivalent of emailing little stego message perfectly fitted with up-to-day security content check standards. TCP over email on broadband will be faster then modems we had 10 years ago.
There is only way out: Force authorities to make world a better place for living, not for doing bussinesses only.
I own a handful of guns. I treat my guns with much more respect than my computers. My computers won't kill a person if I screw up using them.
Some 20 years ago, I did some Z-80 assembly coding on firmware of a radiology medical device. It was very easy to endanger up to death a person with a software bug or hardware wiring fault. Since then, I treat a computer as an extension of my own will and responsibility, which is usually attributed only to weapons.
From the article: At the end of the school year, students are asked to write an essay ''to get the word out that downloading copyrighted entertainment is illegal and unethical," according to the teachers' guide.
From my memory a piece of history of totalitarian: back in the communist era, we have been indoctrined in schools on many subjects. We wrote assays on how perfect socialism is, and how evil and illegal capitalism is, and what a genius a local party leader was or how soviet heros were heroical for many times every year then, also according teachers' guide. An ideal of ethics in school was the "Moral Codex of the Communist". But it works only up to age of ten or so. Teenagers did not take it.

Finally, at the end of era (1989), including party leaders no one believed any of official propaganda.
Today, all that ideology and ethics of a "real socialism" is gone. I guess, nor the Hollywood will last forever. Human is a very adaptable and inteligent animal. Every historic attempt to herd it consistently for long time has failed dramatically.
Your computer is a tool, nothing more. Does anyone feel loyal to a spoon?
Did you ever use a sword? Probably not. You cannot understand. I keep up my computers with the same respect as my swords. They are even more powerfull.
It defines spyware as software that transmits personal information or computer usage data without obtaining explicit approval from the user.
It is easy to keep legal on this. For every packet containing personal information or computer usage data do popup window kindly asking for explicit user approval... Ehm.
Well, every time I see some computer related legal problem of the yankee culture provenance I realise the legality is a very poor replacement for reality.

The story is obvious.

In theory the members-only forums of these sites is accessible only by invitation and only to individuals who have a proven track record in spamming.
So, there are two sorts of spammers outa there, spammers and anti-spammers.

Microsoft tells users would suffer from this
Considering these are Microsoft users drones who will pay I think it is perfectly correct and acceptable.

Open technology, open culture, open society. These are necessities for freedom.
There are no digital rights, only digital slavery.
This raises the question of whether or not companies that are already using such techniques are in violation of the new patent.
If somebody is already using such techniques there is a prior art, invalidating such patent.
But I run Familiar Linux on my iPaq.

At last, yankees realised the truth.

Does it concern anyone else that the phrase "10 countries and the United States" was used instead of "11 countries including the United States"?
United States is not a country. It is Empire. Big and Mighty. We, countrymen, already understand this. Do you?
This "news" about top memory pricing repeats itself every halfyear for 20 years. Perhaps it's time to hit those international memory syndicates?
