I have to say the adaptive spam filter in Firefox works pretty darn well. I have tried other adaptive spam filters as plugins in Outlook and they work pretty darn well too.
With the nature of new spam messages that look like real emails, the only person who can really tell if something is spam is the recipient.
PHP is one of the best languages I've come across. And I think a lot of it comes from the available library of functions. They're all very well organized, especially in the PHP manual.
I learned PHP by reading the manual, but I found I didn't need a book because it all was very similar to Perl/C, etc.
Oh, this is nice, especially for restoring old buildings. If an artist can recreate a plaster mold, they can get a stone copy. That could save a lot of time in restoration.
This could also have potential in restoring wood carvings, assuming the machine can mill wood.
How much time will he be connected to the network? Assuming he's flying at 90mph, and the wifi router has a range of 1/2 mile, there will be a circle of 1 mile in which a signal can be found. That means he'll get a signal for 2/3 sec.
Assuming he manages to get a serious antennae to broadcast his signal, to a range of maybe 10 miles, he'll have a circle of 20 miles. That will be give him a signal for just over 13 minutes.
This might be nice and useful if there were several of these wifi points, then people in planes could actually use the network for more than a few minutes.
I noticed the price isn't displayed on their site, you have to call to get a price. My guess is the price includes a plot of land, a new building with a good foundation, and a power substation.
A northern climate would be best it seems, as it dissapates 1.4M BTU of heat per hour.
Hartford Hospital has robots to deliver meals to patients. I see them parked in the hallway near the kitchen everytime I pass by, although I have never actually seen one in action. I still see dining services bring up giant cabinets full of trays to the floors. I wouldn't imagine that robots will replace a human at wheeling a dinner cart in a busy hospital anytime soon.
Now if they can just get China, Russia, and the other major spam producing countries to sign on, that would be useful. Also if they could actually track down spammers effectively and actually stop spam, then that would also be something.
I think the most useful feature is downloading transactions. I can go to each of the websites of places where I need to pay bills. I trust that method more than having my checking account automatically withdrawn.
Quicken is also better by far than Money. Money had the look and feel of a pin ball machine, the way most newer programs do. A money management program does one job, and it does not need any frills.
After that happens you'll understand what you're really capable of, and you'd be surprised how little you know now. You'll start to understand what all the 'old people' on slashdot are waving their canes about too.
If you're realisticly confident in your own abilities you have a chance of having them happen. Life is a lot about working and trying hard. You will have to work for everything you ever do, and if you dont work for it, you wont be able to appreciate it. If you're confident and you understand that you need to fail to get better, you have a chance of becoming what you think you can be.
As a side note, its a pretty naive and narcissistic view to feel your all that and a bag of chips.
Young kids now think 1GHz isn't enough to browse web & email. That's not just wrong, it ends up wasteful
It is wasteful, for two reasons: 1) the newer processors consume more power plus the multitude of fans needed to cool the thing. 2) there are millions of 386 and 486 machines still functioning out there. its wasteful to build a new 2GHz machine when a 486 can do the same task.
Plus those 'old' computers are a lot more durable than ones made today. The old XT keyboards were made from steel. Even into the late 1980s, IBM keyboards still had a steel plate underneath. The IBM PS/2s had steel cases, you could use the case in place of cinder blocks to raise up your car.
My parents had a Hayes1200 modem that they discarded. It had a milled aluminum case. Being a 10 year old at the time, I decided to break the thing. I took a sledge hammer to it, threw it around the back yard by the cord. It still maintained its shape, I couldn't dent it. Try that today with any new equipment.
These are same reasons they still have the original elevator motors in the Empire State Building. "They simply dont make motors as durable as these anymore. They've been running continuously since 1933."
I'd like to see some examples of these pictures. Sure they are creepy, sometimes people can be fooled though. I had a picture of Aki in a bikini from the Final Fantasy movie on my computer. My girlfriend found it and wanted to know why I had it. She didn't beleive me that it wasn't a real person.
I wonder how John Nash is doing? From the book "A Beautiful Mind", it seems he was working on the Riemann Hypothesis in his later years at Princeton. I wonder how far he got.
The movie and book were completely different. I think the book was more in depth, considering the movie didn't even mention Nash's first illegitimate son. But Jennifer Connelly is HOT.
Hmmmmm... I'd like to test my website's capabilities. Please visit it, click on links, download images, and have fun on the site. It's NOT hosted on a DSL connection.
Sorry if this also sounds harsh, but you're an idiot. You have a significant other, and you're even questioning whether games are more important than her. The answer should be obvious.
The parent post mentions sacrifice being a key part of a long term marriage. I know that a lot of old people say "back in my day we worked hard and liked it!" Theres a lot of truth to that. Giving up things that seem very important, and sacrificing, and working hard can be more rewarding that you could've imagined.
If you are asking yourself the question of whether games are more important than a wife, then you are at the point in your life when you've finally grown up. Good luck! and keep growing! (and quit the games. a person who loves you is worth more than a computer game)
I've fooled them all... My password is so simple, yet so complex, no one will be able to figure it out! It also doesn't hurt to throw the hackers off track with a hint in the wrong direction by writing false passwords on sheets of paper near your computer. Or putting the real passwords there, then no one would try them.
When certain fonts are displayed in Windows, certain characters are cut off on the left. It seems when the bounding box of text is calculated, it is incorrect, allowing some text to be cut off when displayed. I've noticed this is IE and Word especially.
I did not try to repartition the windows partition and then install FC2 in the free space. I tried to install FC2 on a seperate hard disk all on its own. It still corrupted the grub boot loader and refused to boot into anything.
fdisk/mbr was the only thing that worked to restore at least one bootable OS.
It happens with Windows 2000 also. It would be nice if Microsoft were to easily allow other operating systems to dual boot with Windows, but they dont. Fedora offers a way to dual boot, so one might assume it might work correctly. Windows doesn't make any claims that it can play nice with other non-microsoft OSes.
It really doesn't look good for Fedora if it can't dual boot with another OS and if it is making some drives unuseable. It looks particularly bad if the bug has been around since February and has not been fixed. Hardware makers and software writers make many mistakes and other software sometimes has to work around those mistakes to make their stuff work. I've seen countless comments in source code that say/* heres a workaround for this bug... */

I really like the programs, but I get their names confused... I meant Mozilla Thunderbird in the above post.
Yes, Thuderbird! It's early in the morning...

Impressive, green one.
If these chips can do what they say, it will be very very nice.

Fedora Core 2 disabled firewire by default because of a bug in the firewire modules. Hopefuly 1394 will be enabled in Core 3.

but the same combination was also in my wallet along with all my pin numbers. Again in base 7...
Thank you.
Now, where do you live?

I agree, the news here is that they're selling this thing for $150/US. And there's probably someone buying it.

Hopefuly they can fix this in the new fonts.
