And right you are! Would you be able to make an estimate though how many of todays computer users know the speed of such a protocol? I'm using it on a daily basis as it's unsurpassed. And what to think of those who pop their eyes out for not even knowing 'ping', or to use 'telnet' to rid themselves of some blob blocking their incoming mail.
Just today I tagged an old box to donate to the Digibarn [good cause!] and I'd be interested to learn who can still remember that [under CP/M] it was the cats ass to rename 'PIP' to 'COPY' cos that's what is was supposed to do. ['PIP' being the horrendous acronym for the 'peripheral interchange program'.... Copy;-)]
Last week I was just looking up some thingie in my archives and I noticed there were loads of screenies and saved web pages from/. dated 9-11. It was quite a thing to have/. still online where the other parts of the grid just crumbled.
Heck, last time I swapped ISP was because the new one didn't think usenet was a worthwhile part of the offer. I couldn't solve many a techical issue without it. What's left of the basics of the net, now that I come to think about it. Any of you guys still FTP ? Or gopher ? Finger ? [I agree, the last one was a joke;-)]
10 years.... mmhhh, lemme think. Gotten me a heap of certificates some 8 years ago, so yea; I might be close to 10 years as well. 10 years of setting the homepage of each and every single browser on every friggin' 'puter that I installed to our dearly beloved /. That's some 10k+ boxes, yo ! [Now I get a cookie, bro !]
Still.... congrats and tip'o the hat to all [all submitters as well, even when I never got a 5+ karma]
With all these film makers going digital it can't be too costly to invest in some external drives, no can it? There's 500gig drives to be had for a wee $100 so what's the caper here? Backup onto a smart little box, several times over, have some off site as well and the problem is solved. These are high tech industries so am I mistaken when I may expect a director of this stature to have some people in his inner circle taht'd be able to advise him on this?

It is most definite that we have a very dubious site at hand......... If you see images like http://andrej.initon.hu/kepek/Thailand/Pattaya/gir ls/20050211_10-10-36.html [initon.hu] and http://andrej.initon.hu/kepek/Thailand/Pattaya/gir ls/20050211_20-36-38.html [initon.hu] I'm wondering if we're going to have a new Gary Glitter case in the near future. These girls look extremely young to me and I can hardly imagine this being legit.
Larry...., Boulderdash, heck; I even have an original disk with Space Invaders !
But Xonix beat them all. Spent night after night after night with that one. Hardly got any sleep for months on end.
Damn right !
For all my [smaller] customers I open up a Gmail account. We don't ship big things there, but it's a comfy thought to have some accounting files zipped up, pwd locked, and safely stored outside the house.
OK, I admit. I've opened up a Gmail that I never ever access, and I use it as a reserve box where all images of young beautiful nekid women live together, happy in a box. Safe from the outside world.....
Sure, we ban access to USB devices via a policy in Win2k as well, and it's a good thing. But since the arrival of Google's 1 GB Gmail there's a way bigger load that can be heaved out of the system than via a 128-USB stick. We're always chasing to get any form of leaking blocked. [Still chasing, still chasing.....]
Nay, not realy for my father in law of 70. He's got my mother in law to look after him;-)
A simple box with heaps of RAM, no thrills-frills, Opera locked on Google, and an image on a hidden partition. No need for it yet, even when I placed the machine at their house about 2 years ago. He's getting there. Slowly but surely he's increasing his online capabilities of this golden day and age.

I'm seriously wondering whether all these girls have reached the age of consent.

Slacked it for some days and now they get a feel of what all those that fare unprotected have to bear.....
