I worked on a website for a friend that ownds batterybus.com onlybatteries.com etc. etc
He knows all about batteries, and would like to let you know how wrong you are... Especially in the third world countries where the manufacturers pay employees a little more to not have to wear proper safety gear to handle the battery materials, which costs almost nothing, but I guess if they get paid nothing....
I have to say, for someon making alot of statements about things, you sure are unaware of click-fraud statistics. People even have brought Google to court because of fraudulent stats. I have adwords on my website, if I even go to my own website, and spend the day clicking on all the link and refreshing the page to get new ads, then click on those, I get some money in the bank for those clicks, at the end of the year I could maybe get 100-200$. That is if I have the time to do this, now there are people smart enough to program a software that would do this automatically without intervention, and with delays built into the program....so as to not raise any flags.
This alone * how many people have ads, could ad up to the supposed millions lost in click fraud as per some stats have proven. I am not one to condone fraud, but I know how easy some peopl can think up new ways of stiffing the system. Now that you have that knwledge, I would suggest you inform everyone that you have kindly told "fraud...what fraud???"...and enlighten them to this as well.
I knew this guy who I used for my linux tutorials, he was a guru in all that is linux. He worked for google in the early days, and told me how he helped them set up their early server rooms.....hundreds of thousands of older computers running in a clustered format on linux, to do the searches of which you speak of.
They CAN expand to hold up proper time frames for searches with this new search, if it already isnt that powerful, but I have no doubt they have the power to do the searches inside a parallel distributed search tree, they DO have the power, of course you may not be speaking about this from first hand , although it does sound like you have never been inside their server room
I suggest you do a little more research about good business models, and how the economics of breaking down parts, causes you to replace them, and that what he says is true, why would they want to replace the batteries that cost.35 cents to make that lasts 2 hours, with one that costs.45 cents to make but lasts 4 hours..... they lose money!
Like Bush SAYING he really wants to stop the oil dependency, and pushing to have supposed advancements, yet keeping that mysterious, never to be seen water engine that the governement seased years back, back in the darkest corners of Area 51.
We will never see that engine, and we will always hear about those IMPROVEMENTS, yet they will never really come out with the stuff that will kick all batteries a**es as that would be porr business sense.
Gone are the days where Micheal himself would help set you up with your pc and make sure that your satisfaction was guaranteed.... I remember my first laptop from Dell being windows 98, and not knowing a thing about it, but never failed to amaze me how great customer support was back them for such simple things as getting your internet to work( modem atached ).
Now a days, no one I know would even buy from Dell unless they were a BIG company that bought upon hundreds of their pcs, and this would make them not want to LOSE THAT IMPORTANT CUSTOMER. Too bad if you are a 55 year old grandpa that is excited about getting into the computing world, you might as well just buy from a used store !
I hope they win and bring CUSTOMER SUPPORT back to reality, not the virtual one ( where they think its all about them, and not about the customer)
"Sometimes you gotta lose a little mobey to lose some more"
There is a new software on the market of which the source code is not really available anywhere therefor can not be cracked, I state , can not be cracked..no matter how much proding you do inside, you will not find any holes or leaks....as well, the more you use this software the better at it you get, it is called BRAIN, which is really something that most people should be able to use, but few do.
example... if Ineed a password for a website (sqlforums) and I know not to use the same passwords over and over again, i can use a derivative, which means I use BRAIN to come up with a formulae that I use each time... hence the regular password (containing special characters AND numbers...) then I add an abbreviation of the websites name...so hotmail could be hotml usually not too many characters as some websites actually have a maximum ( can you believe this???) to what a password should be ( 6 is the smallest I have come across!)
This works everytime, and also makes it easy to continue using the same password with derivative without compromise...
However, now that you know my formulae(damn it!) I must change it, unfortunately my version of BRAIN is only 1.0, therefor, will take me some time to upgrade to the latest version then, I will be able to reset the formulae....
It should be more like 500,000$ which would be kept in escrow for the period of time that the institution would have the.bank name....this would really make sure it is an unreachable amount for the little sceamers... and for the escrow, would make sure they knew the money was coming back to them later...so they would not even flinch at the amount.
Except that you forget if your client dies early then his death is a lost sale unto you, therefor you should try and keep them coming longer, not shorter....I think what you meant to point out was that the McDonalds model is based on making the most money with the least expensive ingredient. However, if you notice after many people have made their point of view clear to them (the guy with the supersize movie) it helped put a few better things on the menu, althoutg they charge an arm and a leg for it, 8.00 a salad...sheesh....thats criminal!
When you hear that there was a war going on about who would own doubleclick, between you and me, even though it seems a big monopoly, I still prefer google to either yahoo or microsoft.
Had it fallen into enemy hands(ms)then there would have been way to much control for gates and the boys, but this is only my opinion, I really dont see the problem with google having it it might make the ads a little less heavy seeing as alot of google ads are text based and not cold fusion or heavy gifs.
I have said for a long time now, that the systme in place is faulty, because they cant verify the person at the other end. If however they had in place that the online inof does not get access to a special bank of phone numbers designed to be used per purchase....at the time of purchase you receieve a call from visa or the bank in question saying you have made some transactions or purchases online for such items, is this correct....then this would solve almost evrything, except it would cost the banks enormous amounts of money, which would then trickle back down to bigger costs and fees for a bank account of which we did not have any fees as far back as 20 years ago ( here in canada...dont know about all other places).
Everybody is greedy, so I guess if I make no money, no one will bug me!
I thought I had read the artical stating that it would read hashes from known programs CAPABLE of reading the call stack etc.... I believe that VS is one of those such programs. If flaming is all someone has to do all day long, I guess they should go get themselves a copy of WoW instead!
I thought I had read the artical stating that it would read hashes from known programs CAPABLE of reading the call stack etc.... I believe that VS is one of those such programs. If flaming is all someone has to do all day long, I guess they should go get themselevs a copy of WoW instead!
The problem with this logic is that the computer you are using should only be used to play the game, as I am a developer and have a pretty good computer, and usually leave multi windows open that again as a developer have unique abilties to do whatever i want....if I was perhaps busy working on cleaning up a work project using visual studio developer and also playing the game, then I guess I was a bad person because the fact that the hash sent back saw that I had the VS open capable of reading the stack etc... I would get banned....good thing I know about this now.... anyways, once I reach lvl 70 , and until they come out with their next expansion, I quit.
I play my games to unwind, not to get all tangled up in politics. I guess I will go get the last Unreal.....
I created my own software based on vb6.0,easily updatable to.net if neccessary... it uses excel file to set up a pointer and info database...
this contains the artist and all their mp3s....how it works is, the program creates a hyperlink within my application on the intro page( which lists all the artist and # mp3 and sizes) By clicking the hyperlink on the intro page for that artist you to go to their page(worksheet),
once there...you have a hyperlink created for each mp3 that when you click on opens the default mp3 player and plays the file. For my 120 gb library, my excel file is only 3 mb. and lists all that i have in an organized alphabetical order.
I do not keep the album name as some of the songs I have I could not tell you where they came from, but I do have a multi classification schema for the gendre. I use this because I p[lan to in the very near future set up my personal website for my friends and family to be able to view all my collection to make their selection. The website already is built and uses this same excel file as its back end.
If I were her legal guardian, I would try to set up a few msn chat sessions, where I would then somehow manipulate the chat to have a slight sexual connetation without being obvious, something that could be twisted in the courts.
This would then be followed by a "sure she will meet you in person" and have the cops standing by to catch that sexual predator. Then I would send a letter to the courts stating that my girl was traumatized by the perversions the people trying to contact here caused , and that now, definately there will be no more contact or even visual deliberations as she would remiss and have even more psychological damage.
If we live in a world where technicalities like these are allowed, then use them to your advantage and fight fire with fire. I really hope something can be done about these guys that are always going after the 80 year old granmother, or the 10 year old girl...I mean seriously, come on!
The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
I think that with todays technology for implanting watermarks in both animation, pictures and anything else worth its weight in gold, we could actually just develop a software that page ranks based on the watermark and anything found with a watermark from the offended party would be automatically removed end of story, and does not cost more to maintain operations.
How about those countries that force their women and certain males to remove their genitalia or somewhat scar it violently. They move to USA and after becoming at one with the population see that it isn't GREAT to not have testicles or a clitoris....so they go to a doctor who tells them there is a new procedure in place to help with such operations.
I just wish that some people who have no clue what goes on in the rest of the world and other cultures could live about a mile in the other person's shoes.
Read up on which country does this, and I might give you a cigar if you guess it right
This post is to comment on the many posts previous to this one.... I just don't have the time to respond to each reader that doesn't grasp the concept laid here.
Please don't take this as a post directly to your post, although some of it might hold true to answer some daunting comments.
I am guessing that with the many posts I got concerning my job, as it is what I do for a living, I am stupefied as to how many people can't read in todays society. Someone even accused me of being in high school.....yet he finished off his statement with some roses are red poem....
Let me rephrase in a matter you will understand...some of us are PAID to do this exact scenario, which would in turn include that the people in upper management involved or aware would not press charges....this would never go to court, the police or men in black would be advised that this is a drill, even though their presence would still be required for proper scenario simulation.
I have just finished rattling off a case that we had a client that had their server physically stolen ( not by us, by a thief) and caused them to reevaluate what we had been saying all along. Social engineering, building strengthening security, camera security...now with the loss of their data...which numbers about 25,000...needs to involve higher authorities at a national level....do you understand what I mean now???
I may put something in a very loose manner or in layman's terms for the reader that might not catch the importance of the scenario I was speaking about, but for some I guess I will have to draw a picture?!? ; (
As I am answering this and all other sub comments aimed at my initial comment....yes
the ramifications would be very unpleasant, especially including the police, but THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE TRUTH....otherwise, you have people saying well that number is off, and this number is off, you may include the upper management in the drill, but in the end if you are paid to be a security expert, and your job condones such actions, you have nothing to fear.
Next off, how often do servers disappear...we are dealing with a client right now that had their main server stolen with much sensitive data...unfortunately for them, it contained so much that it now is involving the MAJOR legal authorities, however, we being the dedicated IT techies we are, are able to replace the server, and its contents within hours, so that people can continue working
without any downtime...something we specialize in....so what does this scenario teach us....LOTS!
: )
At night come into the office and take out the server and steal any other info....lock it up in some office where the boss wont look. When everyone arrives for work the next day and cant work due to the fact there is a missing server, and the police are being involved talking about taking all sorts of equipment for forensics evidence, then pipe up and say that THIS WAS A DRILL...and let everyone go back on about their business. Once you are faced by the boss to explain your actions....just say that had this been the real thing....25 employees would have been without work and still gotten paid... take their salary per day * 25 * how many days you think it would have taken to get everything back rolling again with a new server and new configs, and new passwords for everyone....this will be the total you should ask towards getting a better security system in place....including cameras for the server room, a utility software (VMware???) made to replace images of machines that were stolen from backups kept elsewhere, plus a utility to update all user accounts including admins with new passwords and maybe even something to help secure the machines into place ( bolted down )
Guaranteed this will work to get your point across, possibly cost you a week suspension...but worth it in the end to show how far you are willing to go for your security!
Listen... I am unfortunately one of the ones playing WoW that hasnt yet been able to get the SO involved. I do know that time spent on my computer to play is time spent apart.... what I do like to know is...if I did have her online with me, would that be considered time spent with her....
As well, is there a possibility that the article fails to mention the time spent sleeping (wink,wink) in bed with the SO is calculated into the % brought forth. I also tend to think that anyone who wants calculate time fixing the computer software or hardware instead of calculating the time it takes to figure something out in 1 hour instead of reading the manual, included with every box of software you buy to better understand using it, would shave off time on this report.
Last but not least, if time spent on the computer is BAD, but the time it saves you by doing your taxes in 2 minutes instead of 20 hours...(quicktax)....then is that calculated as a minus towards the total, as it actually gives you back time...no???
There will always be abuse over use for the addictive persons needing that connection in their lives, but I find this report highly inconclusive and highly erroneous I would like to see these formulas used to come up with this percentage.
Does this mean it will work on my computer now if i get a firmware upgrade, or do I need to replace the part on the motherboard with a newer one to allow me this new speed.
If I need an firmware upgrade, will I get it from windows, from the motherboard manufacturer, or just any site will do.
If I do need to buy it, how long before any cards are made and what price can we expect to pay.
I can get a P4 used, with all the bells and whistles for about 200$ CND -minus the dvd burner(another 50$)...if this is going to cost more then 100$, I wont bother, I don't need the speed enough to go faster at reading my emails, or checking the latest p00rn websites
