But interestingly especially with IMAP storing your e-mails in folders and subfolders can be a pain. Atleast on the win32 platform, very few clients render IMAP folder trees correctly.
My IMAP server structure has folders somewhat like this (folder.subfolder)
INBOX (effectively root and no mail can be stored here to my knowledge)
INBOX.Inbox INBOX.Sent Items INBOX.Archive (where I store old mail in subfolders) INBOX.Archive.Webcomics
Now take Opera 8 (released just the other day). It renders this structure totally incorrectly. The folder 'tree' shows this all in the same level:
INBOX
Inbox Archive Archive.Webcomics
Becky also suffers from this inability. Thunderbird my memory is a little fuzzy on (I don't like it) but last time I used it I don't think it displayed these folders correctly either.
Magogany is the client I use currently and it renders the folder tree perfectly.
Maybe I'm off base and we are supposed to be discussing POP3 only here but asking the every day joe to use a client to organize their mail when clients doesn't even show IMAP folders correctly is a joke. It's just frustrating.
And after further investigation several single celled life forms were recovered from the martian surface. Initial test results suggest the average martian microbe is TEN TIMES more biologically active than their earthling slashdotting counter parts.
Unlike Linux, Windows will not delete any dll or exe currently in memory, or for that matter any file that has an open handle. It will however allow you to rename (ren) them.
Edit the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\Memory Management\DisablePagingExecutive to 1. Exit the Registry and reboot.
There are many ways to optimize your swap file and lots of tweaks out there to reduce harddrive activity.
...and I might add, before someone says RTFA that getting round the filters isn't really an excuse Why are blogs any different to normal pages in the filtering respect?
From what I've read, I don't think I personally would want to leave leave a cool workplace like Google to work for Microsoft.
I have no doubt many MS engineers are equally as brilliant as Google ones, but maybe they just aren't given the same level of creative freedom.
I'm too lazy to pull up the link just now but there was a story recently mentioning an ex-MS employee who was a bit peeved off I think at how long OS code was sat in the pot.
Of course it's all hypothesis and case-dependant. We don't get to hear much about the Microsoft work environment and so I think generally the average/.ers POV is biased.
I don't think anyone can say Microsoft are trying to hatch an evil plan to steal steal other companies success. If they want to keep up, it's logical that many skilled and experienced prospective employees are going to be from the opposition.
Personally I think the futures heading toward harddrive based PVR's. Like downloadable packages that contain the video, extras, surround sound, and all the meta data into your PVR under your TV.
All they would have to do is have the downloadable content DRM'd on the fly to match your PVR box. Off course there are problems then with hardware failure or upgrades, and storage capacity.
I don't think watching movies on your PC or burning off DVD's is going to take off mainstream and it'll be a while before true any movie any time on-demand services are available in a fair manner.
It's alarming how accurately the Google Grid seems to be forming.
This sounds great, but I wouldn't mind Google Image search results that didn't keep returning 404's.
In a recent recruitment video that featured on GoogleBlog the nice lady says Google is all about "ambitious ideas, fast responses, big acheivements" but it seems to me they want to pump out new services as testaments to what the Googlers are capable of and show off their cool attitude..without actually producing a well polished and maintained product.
Who hasn't noticed degradation of Google search results or lots and lots 404's on image search?
Noones saying Scott isn't a good actor he just didn't suit the part from the offset...startrek captains have always been tough and responsibility bearing, with a wiff of wisedom about them..they lead the crew into the bold unknown. With this show all I kept seeing was him in Quantum Leap.
When I first watched Enterprise, I couldn't really relate to it as being a Startrek show at all.
Theme music, misguided choice of leading actor, blatant sex-pot from the offset, coupled with the doubt of a prequal ever working stunted the shows growth until it was easily crushed by the network overlords before it had time to prove itself to the majority.
This of course is 100% opinionated, but everyone I know said roughly the same. I personally believe some fans just forced themselves to like it for the sake of the franchise.
This happened here in the UK for NTL cable users during the blaster peak.
At the time I was doing a fresh install of Windows 2000 and got infected within a few minutes (Yes I know install Mr Firewall first - I was checking my files were intact after some hefty partitioning:P).
Very effective, the page had a link to the blaster removal tool. ISP's should do this for all major viral outbreaks.
i think 'developing technologies' had 'star nuclear fusion reaction stabilisers' covered (and patented as of my prior-'prior art' starting right about now)
You are assuming the main reason for leaving Earth is lack of resources in which case another rock will eventually suffer the same problems. Your choice in resources increases greatly if you have the ability to move around quickly.
Grandparent is right, with the threat of annialation (imho, more important in the long term) you wouldn't really want to be anchored to another rock.

"Magogany" and "clients doesn't" are definately signs I need to put down my breakfast while commenting on slashdot.

I'm really glad Google is extending it's services to the UK
I can't seem to get Google Maps (UK and US) to work in K-Meleon (Mozilla/Gecko based dated 14th april 2005)
I just get the orange header and the search box and search doesn't work.
Any ideas? Javascript is on, cookies are on.

How does that work?
Windows 2000 doesn't come with native CD burning software, so isn't it down to the vendor CD burning software you chose to use?
Admitedly Windows doesn't exactly offer brick walls between user accounts out of the box but with some configuration it isn't at all that bad.
If i'm not mistaken,
Unlike Linux, Windows will not delete any dll or exe currently in memory, or for that matter any file that has an open handle. It will however allow you to rename (ren) them.
Here's one comparison on how easy it is to hose Windows and Linux
Massive inbreeding.
If you can't download Revelations, watch this instead. It's great.

His BT internet connection isn't free.
Has anyone seen a torrent or mirror for the "small" low resolution? preferably in WMV.
It's supposed to exist but I can't find it.
Apparently you can disable paging, to do so
o l\Session Manager\Memory Management\DisablePagingExecutive to 1.
Edit the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contr
Exit the Registry and reboot.

Why are blogs any different to normal pages in the filtering respect?
Is this story trying to suggest blogs are somehow easier to drive traffic towards and if so these 200 blogs pose an increased threat?
If not, why the hell is this news worthy.

Good point.
If your paying for your bandwidth by the GB and you purchase that hollywood torrent.
It's a bit of a kick in the balls to have to pay more to download it off BT.
Imho, using BT is a charitable choice to help support projects/producers that can't afford distribution costs. Why does hollywood need to use BT?
It's creepy in the way that it paints a picture of an utopian work environment, where you'll want to have fun working and never leave...yes.

I just hope the grid doesn't crumble and burn.
Is that 71% of 72% (51.12%) or just 71% of the original number of participants?
These questions..phrased so poorly, how am I supposed to decide?!
Yes! Parent should have been modded insightful
