Right near where I work, there is a big highway with a very short merge zone on the overpass. The actual merge zone is long, but you can only see cars for the last 50 feet or so.
This is US-19 Southbound at Sunset Point Rd, in Clearwater, FL.
Assuming that it isn't a government itself in charge of the network. That would be one hell of an intelligence gathering network, not to mention the processing power and extreme survivability.
It is surprising that it took the botnet people so long to discover public-key cryptography and signing.
You don't even need to encrypt the traffic! Sign the messages and the bots obey. Obviously only the controller would have the private key, and all bots can have that key in addition to the key for their segment. Encrypting would make it harder to track/discover the network however.
Which is 100% hardware problem and should not have even happened. Whine to your MB manufacturer for going lowest-bidder on your BIOS, and demand a compensation for defective product. Obviously replacement with an identical part won't do, as they are all fried - only replacement to something that actually DOES work would do.
If Windows cared to follow standards it would be having the same issues your Linux system had.
That's called a compressor. Hook one up to your speakers and problem solved, no matter what operating system (or device for that matter) sends audio to them.
It really makes you wonder how thier economies have remained in such a mess when we are all so dependant on them, and really have moved a lot of the industrial stuff over there...
Pirating music isn't stealing. It is copyright violation. While you may think they are one and the same... they are not. If they were we would not need copyright legislation as we all have plenty of legislation against theft.
theft - noun 1. the act of stealing; the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods or property of another; larceny. 2. an instance of this. 3. Archaic. something stolen.
I forgot to turn my phone off for one flight. Not only did nobody ask/say/look or anything, but we took off, landed, and navigated without any problems. Hell we were cleared for approach ahead if time and were lined up with the runway at least 60 miles out.
I should also mention that there were no course/altitude corrections during flight, and my phone didn't explode from tying to connect to a tower.
I think the whole situation is retarded. Cell phones DO NOT hurt avionics, and I don't really think that the towers can even hear my phone from 20,000 feet up (the antennea focus downwards)
Sudo is great, when used right. Ubuntu doesn't use it right.
Basically sudo allows specific users and groups the ability to run specific commands on/from specific hosts... either with or without a password. Useful for instance when one user is responsible for working the print server, and is given root access only for print-related commands on the print server itself - and if they require a password to do so, you don't need to give the super-user password, they can use their own.
It's damage control and compartmenting.
The way Ubuntu does it is makes it easier for a cracker, while the intention is to make it easier for the user. Crackers guess your password or obtain it from elsewhere (average user... easy passwords combined with using the same password elswhere) and bang, they have root. To be fair though, on a single-user system all that compartmentalization is overkill and a hurdle.
Dynamic Playlists are self-generating playlists, created according to defined rules, which are used to keep the current playlist to a manageable size. Whilst Amarok is fairly light on resources while running, loading a large number of tracks into a playlist at once increases RAM usage, possibly impacting on system performance, which is avoided completely by using Dynamic Playlists. Also known as Party Mode, they are also a great way to keep the music playing all night with no interaction.
No idea what apple's "smart playlists" are... is this similar?

Read it and adapt to debian. All linux sytems can do this.
I know there is an X server for windows (xming) and cygwin will work as well. I'm sure there is something comparable for the mac as well.
And honestly, I don't mind targeted ads - if done right I might actually be interested! Compare those to cable TV ads...
The issue is when that data is retained after processing and potentially lost/given/used inappropriately.

It's kind of hard to merge safely at 65 when you have 20 feet to do it in. Perhaps your highways are built better?

You can't be sure the company knows/intended for the advertisement in that manner.

It's almost the same as the difference between Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro. Foxit free lets you read, Foxit Pro lets you write.
In both cases they can all go to hell, I'll take my Ghostscript, thank you.
There are GPL versions of ghostscript. They are not as up-to-date though.
The non-commercial licenced one gets new code first it seems.

I smell a niche market developing...
Birds don't urinate. All the liquid they need to expel is included in their guano.
Sure, the frame might be transparent. But it will still be quite visible...
Don't forget all the wires, fluid lines (hydraulics, fuel), computer boards, engine components, the pilot, weapons, radar equipment...
It would look more like those human body models that show the internal organs in a transparent person-shaped case.
Oh and it probably wouldn't absorb/deflect radar nearly as well.
Well, I don't want nor care for HD. If I ever do start to care, I will be pirating 100% of if until there IS NO DRM.
Yes, lookie there. DRM, which was intended to prevent piracy.... hmm, causing piracy?
OK, lets see your algorithms, which cannot be defeated by quantum computing.
Oh, harder than it sounds, isn't it?
The solution? PLAY A LAN GAME.
No need to use the internet if you are all inside the network.
Don't know if Halo 3 has that as an option however... if not, fucking stupid...
Damn. Someone call Blizzard, Intel ripped their naming scheme from the Diablo II item-generator.
No, evolution is the theory. Adaptation happens, and is a critical truth that the theory is based upon.
Isn't Vista SP1 already out? Or should I go drink some more coffee?

A quick google search.
