Looks like M$ finally got it right with this release.
(Careful to RTFL before you flame this one!)
Its not just America. Canada is going down the crapper too.
If I have to sit through one more "kids" movie (read charlie and the chocolate factory) with the 13 year old girl sitting in front of me constantly repeating "This is the saddest movie i've ever seen" through the WHOLE FILM.
I'd like to see her reaction to Schindlers List, or an equally horiffic / true movie.
One of the smartest things I've done for handling spam was to get my own domain name -- lets just call it google.com.
My mail server catches all incoming mail for my domain and directs it to my mailbox (my little secret!).
If I'm giving out my email to a friend, I will use: friends_name@google.com
If I'm giving it out to a reputable company where I want to receive the bills, bullitens or emails, I use: companyname@google.com
If I'm giving it out to a site which i dont trust, I put the words _spam_ in it. company_spam_@google.com
This way, I can do more than set up filters based oon content.
All *_spam_@google.com goes into a specific mailbox (incase I need an activation code or content out of one of the messages)
All other mail goes into my box which I never give out.
I then create rules for killing mail so that if I posted website@google.com on my website, and its getting a lot of spam, I just point website@google.com to be deleted.
I also want to experiment with other people using subdomains, because obviously this solution requires quite a bit of work (server experience, static ip, dns, domain name, etc). When I have time (haha) I am going to give out subdomains to people who want the same thing:
anything@dad.google.com ==>for my dad for example. Then when he has a problem with spam to a specific address, I can kill that box for him or create a simple script for him to do it.
Timmy: "Mom I need you to sign this note saying i did 100 push ups today" Mom: "But timmy, I only saw you do 4!!" Timmy: "Ahh mom, we need to teach you about binary!!"
I was talking with a friend on MSN... coincidentally after reading on this for about 2 hours. The first thing she said i was very suspicious:
C3ly$c3 says:
you there?...http://www.xf2s.com/msn/wode.jpg.
err a jpeg surrounded by a bunch of other characters... sounds suspicious
I dont know if this is actually the virus.... im on my laptop right now which runs windows (unpatched of course)
Loading an entire OS off a cd can be rather slow... both at boot time and to run different applications as you have to seek across the cd (Even with 52x cdroms).
Knoppix is a great "Introduction to linux", but for a daily OS, I find it much too slow.
I would look into the LTSP, and have at least 2 hosts for redundancy. If you were to have all the terminals on one host... you'd be frucked if that host went down. With a centralized computer its easy to upgrade software (You only have to do it once... rather than once for each computer)... and in the future when the computers get "Slow" -- just upgrade the central computer and leave your terminals.
Just my 2c
At my school (University of Regina) they are actually going in the opposite direction. When I started 3 years ago, all of the public computers were Windows 98 or Windows 2000 - Now they have a complete Linux lab, another restricted lab that is 50/50 between Mac and windows.
I really thing that going towards open source is a good idea, just based on the cost of licensing both windows and macintosh OSes.
