Why should McCain adhere to the robots.txt? I will vote for Obama (likely) and definitely not McCain. But when dealing with an election, anything is fair game short of disruption of services.
If Obama puts up a "no crawler" policy, then screw him. What he puts up there is for public consumption, and knowing what changes he is making should be known by all.
I'm assuming you are under 30 and haven't lost a grandparent. Now that I have lost a few family members, I wish I had more photos, more memories to look through. Perhaps it is a case of you don't miss something till it is gone.
I will pull up the digital photo album of old vacations, and my kids love to remember what we did. At some point, my kids will become uninterested as I did when I was younger. But as some point, I know they will enjoy revisiting them.
I sure as hell don't want that to not be possible because my hard drive crashed.
I would hardly call 100 years archival. In some exceptional cases its within the memory span of a single human individual.
Ummmm. Yea. I am going to have granny memorize my last ten years of photos, movies and financial records.
Fact is, I have struggled with a good method for backing up all of this. I've basically settled on mirroring with a remote FTP site. It works, but with my horrible upload speed, initial synchronization took 48 hours plus. Quarterly updates take a couple hours. And the other pain in the butt is I have to encrypt my financial info as I don't trust it being in the hands of a third party.
Now if I had a medium that were 99% successful at retaining info for 20 years, I would backup to two manufacturer's media, and stick it in my safety deposit box.
I don't have that degree of confidence in any low cost storage media yet.
So for archival, yes, this is a wonderful advance.
Wouldn't the rand give you a randome number between 0 and 1800, with an average of 900? This is 15 minutes. I do not user perl, so maybe I am misunderstanding the syntax...
Anyhow, RFC refers to using the example domain for testing purposes and documentation. Unless you consider a Slashdot post one or the other, it does not apply. Sorry.
Um, no. If you actually read RFC 2606, it is for TESTING. If this guy were really sending test emails to me@mydomain.com, then he would be in violation. Simply posting it on Slashdot as an example is not prohibited.
The boss is easy to beat. You give him a lot of venture capital, ask for fifty new features that confuse the user interface and when his user base starts to dwindle, you pull the funding.
And what would happen if something happened to the input/output sensory link? You could be in a vat of this chemical keeping your brain alive forever. And no sensory input. It would be worse than being buried alive and it would last forever (or a very long time, at least).

Yeah. Click on the link behind his name. You will see his TRUE allegiance.

It seems that malware writers still haven't internalized the lesson of DRM â" if my computer can access something in plaintext, I can too.
The malware writers don't need a 100% success rate. They are simply tring to get their software on enough machines to build a nice bot empire.
I would, very much, like to. :-(
Why do I get pictures, in my head, of William Shatner, acting, when I read this?
I don't have to preview. What are you talking about?
Now if I had prefixed my statement with "I know my karma's going to burn for this, but ...", I'd have gotten a +5 Insightful.
About 30 seconds of waterboarding will cure this.
Thanks for the lesson ;)

30 * * * * perl -e 'sleep rand(1800)';\
wget -q --spider http://my.website/report/LAPTOPNAME
That too does a connect on average every half hour, and the IP address and time is being logged.
Average of every 15 minutes, I belive :)
More info on Hellboy can be seen here.
This is the first time I wish I had been rickrolled instead of getting that awful article.
Wow, you posted AC and then posted again. Cool.

Errrrm. That isn't his real address he puts up there. He has an actual domain but doesn't want to put it on Slashdot.
I prefer SPF 60. It allows me to keep the pasty white, computer nerd complexion that drives the women wild.

This is NOT flamebait. This is simply pointing out that rights are NOT unlimited.
So, you are a registered user (you can read the sig). And post AC to flame. Fucking wuss.
Or, someone could have it in for you :)

You will have top be innovative, and work on studies like this
nice rant. Had nothing to do with what I posted.
