I dont see how a device that deactives a weapon of mass destruction could be called a weapon. Given that it doesnt even have any explosives in it. I think we should mass produce this device and sell it to every country in the world. --

When I had the ppp-dsl crap, i had the telnet port only accessable to 10.0.0.2:) Since I dont use Telnet on my local machine... this was fine and restricted access to others.
I can comfim this, all their new residental DSL services are based on PPP-DSL (if you get them as their ISP). They have also changed their old customers back to this. I had DSL with them since their strike last year, at first it was bridiged, but around may-march they sent a note saying the want me to go into my router and set it up for PPP. I moved to a new apartment after that, when serivce recommented it was PPP-DSL and however I tried, they wouldnt change it back (it is now company policy).
You may wish to call them and find out for yourself. Their toll-free number is 1-800-244-1111, USWEST.net (ISP) - 1-888-777-9569 --
Recently, USWEST decided to change all it's DSL customer accounts to a new PPP-DSL based connection. This means you would have to enter a username and password in your router (aka dsl-modem). There are certain disadvantages to this new services.
When your router is in PPP-DSL mode, the DHCP server assigns an IP directly to the router. From there you have to use NAT to pierce open ports for your own NIC. People most effected by this would be gamers and those who wish to use advanced forms of internet communcation (voice/video chat, file sharing and so on).
USWEST ISP web site claims that they are giving a full internet service. But this is not so. I have been able to open ports 22, 80 and 21 for my various serices. But, everytime they change your ip. You have to telnet into your router and change the NAT tables. This gets worse if you reboot your router (since the nat is deleted off). After 2 weeks of this, I changed over to startnet, here in Tucson, which didnt put restrictions such as this (but did firewall off lower ports).
So, if your getting DSL through USWEST, dont pick them as your ISP. Check the other ISP's in your area that offer DSL with USWEST as their backbone. And ask them if they are providing PPP-DSL or Bridged mode DSL. (in which case the IP is given directly to your NIC.. and all the fun).
Most users who get DSL are powerusers and demand more from their DSL service. I was alarmed by these restrictions that USWEST was putting for DSL users. Also it went to the point that I had to use a normal modem to play quake:) --
The British author George Orwell, pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, b. Motihari, India, June 25, 1903, d. London, Jan. 21, 1950, achieved prominence in the late 1940s as the author of two brilliant satires attacking totalitarianism. Familiarity with the novels, documentaries, essays, and criticism he wrote during the 1930s and later has since established him as one of the most important and influential voices of the century. Orwell's parents were members of the Indian Civil Service, and, after an education at Eton College in England, Orwell joined (1922) the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, an experience that later found expression in the novel Burmese Days (1934). His first book, Down and Out in Paris and London (1933), was a nonfictional account--moving and comic at the same time--of several years of self-imposed poverty he had experienced after leaving Burma. He published three other novels in the 1930s: A Clergyman's Daughter (1935), Keep the Aspidistra Flying (1936), and Coming Up for Air (1939). His major works of the period were two documentaries: The Road to Wigan Pier (1937), a detailed, sympathetic, and yet objective study of the lives of nearly impoverished miners in the Lancashire town of Wigan; and Homage to Catalonia (1938), which recounts his experiences fighting for the Loyalists in the Spanish Civil War. Orwell was wounded, and, when the Communists attempted to eliminate their allies on the far left, fought against them and was forced to flee for his life. Orwell's two best-known books reflect his lifelong distrust of autocratic government, whether of the left or right: Animal Farm (1945), a modern beast-fable attacking Stalinism, and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), a dystopian novel setting forth his fears of an intrusively bureaucratized state of the future. The pair of novels brought him his first fame and almost his only remuneration as a writer. His wartime work for the BBC (published in the collections George Orwell: The Lost Writings, and The War Commentaries) gave him a solid taste of bureaucratic hypocrisy and may have provided the inspiration for his invention of "newspeak," the truth-denying language of Big Brother's rule in Nineteen Eighty-Four. Orwell's reputation rests not only on his political shrewdness and his sharp satires but also on his marvelously clear style and on his superb essays, which rank with the best ever written. "Politics and the English Language" (1950), which links authoritarianism with linguistic decay, has been widely influential. The four-volume Collected Essays, Journalism, and Letters of George Orwell was published in 1968.
There is one small piece of essay by him about captiol punishment that I like a lot. This is in regard to a hanging he witnessed and took part in (as part of the Royal police in India). --
Since a majority of us didnt like this article or didnt want to see it mentioned on/. How about setting scores for articles themselves and have readers give points to the article or stone them if they dont like it. I like the idea of stoning. So if an article is really bad, within 10 mins it would be reduced to a -1 (just like user commment moderation) and no one would need to see it again.
I know there are ways to restirct arcticles based on topics, but giving the point based system would be an added bonus to this system. I think this would increase the quality of articles ppl would read on/.
Before everyone start jumping up and down, screaming four letter words at corel,.. lets hear from them and see if they can fix this. Remember humans arnt perfect. Netscape, IBM and the rest that became opensource had these very problems. Give them time before you scream. And remeber Corel Linux is for the windows hoards.. not for powerusers..:)
All these kids need is attention. You take that away and they would go off to play some quake instead. But seriously, libel is a serious crime. I would really like to see this person brought before a judge (Even though the flaming was between two shady groups). --
Check out the visor delux in ICE color. It looks like one of those funky see through imacs! Really neat. I want one! One bad point is that the non-delux just comes in graphite (dark bluish). --

FreeBSD 3.2 on Alpha Coming soon telnet to 192.233.54.xxx
(which means they would setup freebsd boxes for us to check) Ayway I see this as a great thing. Enjoy.
