sms and gsm has replaced pagers in Belgium a long time ago.
You can see who is calling you. You can ignore it and let the anwering machine pick it up and call that a minute later to decide wether or not it is importand enough to take action on. People can send you an SMS and describe better what they want to say. You can have people call your fixed line, use selection and then send an SMS so that you get the same information you got previously. This might be good for you. It is lousy customer service.
This is how it works in Belgium. First it is only valid from a certain amount of salary you make. This means that mst people will not be affected by signing it. So if I sign it and I then start working for the competition, that clause would be invalid, wether I signed it or not. Just because you sign something does not make it legal. The defence of the employee is pretty easy: if I would not have signed it, I would not have gotten the job. The law looks up what the amount of money is that you need to make and if you don't, they can not forbid you to work elsewhere.
The second thing is that if I sign it, it tells how much I would get. e.g. if I work for IBM and they tell me I can not work for Apple, I will get a certain amount of money, wether I was looking for a job at apple or not. (Well, it works less specific most of the times then naming companies)
So if I have signed a contract and I stop working for IBM, they must pay me say 1 year. The fact that I wanted to start my own company or got a joboffer from a non-competitor is irrelevant. I get the money.
So basicaly this is a way to have people that are in higher management not take away the strategic decisions and take them to another companay. The time is also limited. It's the law and everybody should look it up before they sign such a deal. If you are below the amount of what you make, I would even ASK for it. Because then if I DO start working for a competitor it isn't valid. If you DON'T start working for a competitor you colect the money.
Anyhow, this information is about 5 years old. Aks your union in Belgium or your lawer. Not the people who do the loan administration for your company. They have your company as a customer, not you. They WILL report back to the company. Other (European) countries will have different laws. In Belgium this falls under social law and parts are from European law.
Perhaps it has something to do with the excitement of the possibility of the first black president
The first? And that colour should be of no importance. I am sure that if 3 of his great parents would have been from Sweden, he would still have been called black. Silly.
Perhaps they had less positive stories about McCain, because there WERE less positive stories. Just because there is a story about one thing does not mean that there must be a story about another thing.
The summery talks about 1 single response makes spam profittable. As long as that is happening, you pay for spam. Many people think that if they have a good filter that they have solved the spam problem. That is not true.
Spam is solved if we don't need a filter anymore. A filter takes away the symptoms, not the desease itself. Better filters will change the 12 million to a higher number. So instead of 12 million, they send out 24 million spams.
The best bet to actualy solve it will be to abandon SMTP completely and replace it with something different. No, I have no idea what, otherwise it would already be available. The problem with ditching SMTP is that finding a replacement is hard and costs money and at this moment nobody that is importand really suffers. Also it needs to be done worldwide and everybody has to agree.
And I do mean something completely different. This will require new servers, new clients and new standards. This is not just a technical problem, it is also a poitical, social AND economical problem to solve.
The providers need to up their traffic and pay people to filter spam? Charge the customer. It is cost of doing business. No loss for them. The only person who suffers is the end users and who really cares about him? From the different groups, only the end user has problems. So convincing all the others to change will be extremely hard.
You are comparing OS to software. e.g. Linux is the OS. So is Linx a desktop or a server OS? That depends on the software you run on it.
So there is server software and desktop software and not so much server OS and desktop OS. e.g. I run openSUSE. Without telling what it does you have no idea wether it is a server OS or a desktop OS. (I do both and am aware of the existence of SLE). Many people run Debian. Is that server or desktop?
So even though there is different software, the difference between server OS and desktop OS is, at least with Linux, non-existing from an OS point of view.
So the only difference is what software is installed on it? To me that means there is no difference between a server OS and a desktop OS. Instead of OS, there is a difference in usage. It also is not a black and white situation. This is made even more clear by you using the words will tend, likely and might
I run openSUSE. Without telling you what I do with it, you can not say if this is a server or a desktop. I have a server. Only CLI and LAMP. I also have a desktop with all the things on it. As you can not by name know wether it is a server or a desktop, means that there is no difference in the OS.
Is there a difference? Yes, but not on the OS level. There are indeed distrinutions that have an easier start to one or the other. That are just the applications that run on it initially.
That depends very much on what your definition is of stresses, bashed, scarred and abused. The average what a person has to deal with is nothing compared to getting into a lawsuit that could ruin you for life.
At the supermarket you can often pick your line. At busy moments there are some 10 people here in front of you. Besides the self cash-out and the less-then-10 what I always find fasinating is when an extra register opens. You see people looking as to wether this realy opens or not. Do you rush there and be the first or is it just somebody who picks up something and you loose your place in the queue.
If I am not the first at the new register, I start looking wether changing queues is worth it and there are a lot of factors that are importand. How many people are changing queues and how much change do you have to get in there in front of them. How far up the queue are you currently.
Picking a queue in a supermarket depends also on a LOT of things. e.g. on register 1 there often is the most experienced person, but she (always a woman) will have some other tasks as well. Older people tend to chat and start looking for their wallet and not have it ready. Male cashiers are slower then female ones.
Apu is a genius: Express lane is not always fastest, Mrs. Simpson. Look here! All pathetic single men -- always pay in cash, no chit-chat.
It reminds me of Archimedes who, sitting in a tub, had an idea of a lightbulb above his head. Normaly you would say that it would be a stupid idea, having it when you are in a bath. Somehow the idea did catch on to have lightbulbs not only in the bathroom, but everywhere else as well.
I was not allowed to swim right after eating. That was also believed to be true. The issue is it doesn't hurt to do it. can even imagine that it is good to have this moment to concentrate on what you are going to do.
From a historical point of view, I can imagine it is not needed. Flight? Hunt? You do not have the time to stretch.
This reminds me of some test that the Australian army once did. Some with warm up and some without warm up. There was no difference between the two groups (except the time wasted on the warm up).
For that reason I have trained myself to type `rm/bin -rf` so the -rf at the end. Especially useful when using [tab] to finish directory names. It gives you the half a second to register that you did not type the right directory `rm/bin -rf` instead of `rm bin -rf`
This site is one of the most pro-computer minded sites where many make money with computers. It amazes me that nobody seems to listen to people who understand the matter.
What worries me more is that if they so blatantly ignore knowledge in this field, they will ignore it anywhere else as well. Be it national security, privacy, schools, economy and anything else you can come up with.
The police will ask for your details and then grill you as to how you stole it and then will take your fingerprints and DNA whether they will prosecute or not and put all this in a database which then then promptly loose again. You will be shamed and nothing will change.
Giving i to a newspaper will shame the people who made the loss of data possible and then you can hope that some encryption will happen.
There is a huge gap between how things are and how they should be.
Just say that this is great to protect all the American music and movies. In about 20 seconds it will not stop the law, it will be a requirement to at least download 1 movie per week, wether you have Internet or not.
That can be indeed the source where it is turned into "640k should be enough for everybody" Most likely he has said the same to many people. Not everything was always written down. Sometimes things are written down much later either from rememberence or from others. That makes it not so much a litteral quote, but more an idea.
So in 1981 he said that 640k would be enough for everybody for the next ten years. After 6 years it wasn't anymore, so during 4 years there was a moment where he had claimed that 640K was enough and it wasn't.
For me with the above it is clear that he has said it, even if in other words.
And how big is that fridge? Hotel minibar or hotel kitchen? I have seen fridges that hold 8 cans. I have seen dual door fridges that were much larger. Then there are the walk in fridges and even ones that are actualy a storehouse.

Why not go to board games like chess or Monopoly?

Sorry, no link.

Compared to politicians, Cthulhu is the lesser evil.
Either that or they just wait till you are home and hold a gun to your head.
The police will ask for your details and then grill you as to how you stole it and then will take your fingerprints and DNA whether they will prosecute or not and put all this in a database which then then promptly loose again.

There is a huge gap between how things are and how they should be.
Especialy as e.g. in Belgium you can only buy the XP. So at least Belgium might be even more open minded, but there is no choice.
The fact that the XP where still available and the Linux not could mean that they expected differently and stocked according their expectation.
Just say that this is great to protect all the American music and movies. In about 20 seconds it will not stop the law, it will be a requirement to at least download 1 movie per week, wether you have Internet or not.

So it seems that they just prohibit access to the drive.
And how big is that fridge? Hotel minibar or hotel kitchen? I have seen fridges that hold 8 cans. I have seen dual door fridges that were much larger. Then there are the walk in fridges and even ones that are actualy a storehouse.
