  6. Re:Arrg! on Video Racing Games May Spur Risky Driving · · Score: 1

    I do find that after a couple hours of GT I drive more agressively. I supposed the game could be aggrivating my pre disposition to driving fast. Of course you are right, I was driving way before any realistic racing games came out. And as such learned this behaviour from actual driving.

  19. We are talking about S/W piracty here,correct? on Microsoft Security Updates for Pirated Windows? · · Score: 1

    Honestly since when do s/w providers dictate what pirates can and can't do. Thats like telling a crook he can't break into a vault and steal it's contents. While it may be hard it is almost always do-able. Is it even worth the struggle? I say updates for all, you should have made it right the first time.

  21. Re:False sense of security on Volunteering for OSS == Sign Up for Spam? · · Score: 1

    It's always good to have at least 2 accounts, agreed as I've been reading replies I haven't come across anyone sugesting greylisting http://projects.puremagic.com/greylisting/ I came across this process when my account @ http://www.ezrs.com starting using it. Seems like an excellent unabtrusive idea. So far I have received no SPAM since they started using it. It basically relies on the fact that most spammers will just send the message once and don't look for mail bounces and all legitimate mail will look for a mail bounce and try to resend the email at a later time. This delays my mail sometimes but I don't spend any time reading or deleting SPAM (so far until the spammers figure out a way to bypass this that is cost effective) and I maintain a second mail address for very urgent mail Does anyone else have any experience with greylisting? Ways to implement it on linux systems?
