Yesterday afternoon (and then again at 9pm) I watched an IP from Korea use a dictionary attack against our PABX (Asterisk) located in Australia. It used a standard list of usernames and passwords, and then every extension from 0000 to 9999.
While our setup would protects us from any substantial loss (most extensions are setup to allow 1-3 simultaneous calls, premium calls are disabled, and our VoIP billing is pre-paid), Fail2Ban is in the process of being setup.
Lighttpd is good, but is best used in specialised instances, for specific (mainly static content) tasks. Its pointless using it for PHP as the cost of forking out a process to run the script will outweigh any saving from running a lighter-weight http server.
Apparently BitComet has the ability to encrypt the protocol headers (though, only when talking to another BitComet client) to stop traffic shaping by those ISPs
I stumbled onto Foxit Reader a few weeks ago and found it to be a great free replacement for Adobe Reader. It's very fast to load and has all the features that I need (which to be honest, is only a handful).
What really kicks ass about AMD's architecture is that the extra core needs very little more power. So adding more cores is much better than adding CPUs.
I'm not sure I follow, as fair as I can tell, the only piece of the core not working would be the memory controller, as it would just request (over hypertransport) the data from the core connected to the ram.

AFAIK, Google doesn't use the XMLHttpRequest for any of their applications.
Google Suggest uses XMLHttpRequest, while Google Maps uses a iframe
oblivionx (an op on #bt @ efnet): "The site was not shut down, we took it offline. The MPAA has NOT contacted us yet, so as of right now we are not in a lawsuit."
The channel was back to normal before (with the latest Dr. Who ep), but has since been set +m.
But, while the 2.0GHz clock on both companies' chips would seem to indicate an apples to apples comparison
When has clock rate *ever* been a good way to compare different CPUs lines?
The AMD system ran on a 35 watt Turion 64 and had a graphics processor from ATI. That's a pretty handy pairing when you decide to compare it against a 27 watt Pentium-M with Intel's integrated graphics processor.
That makes it sound like the A64 system is running a 9700, its just an intergrated graphics from aATI Xpress 200 chipset.
Raytracing is not required for good graphics. Pixar's Photorealistic RenderMan didn't even have raytracing until version 11, which came out *after* Monsters, Inc.
IIRC, Pixar previously used BMRT (which supported raytracing) along with PRMAN to generate some of the scenes.
Well, Wikipedia certainly does a better job of describing juxtaposition that Dictionary.com
Dictionary.com
The act or an instance of juxtaposing or the state of being juxtaposed.
Wikipedia
Generally, juxtaposition, or contrasting is an act or instance of placing two things close together or side by side, in order to show unlikeness or differences, to note the opposite qualities of the two, etc.
In music it is an abrupt change of elements.
In film the position of shots next to one another is intended to create meaning within the audiences mind.
In literature it occurs when two images that are otherwise not commonly brought together appear side by side or structural close together - thereby creating the reader to stop and reconsider the meaning of the text through the contrasting images/ideas/motifs.
Modernist poetry played extensivley with juxtaposing images, inserting unrelated fragments togther in order to create wonder and interest in readers.

Which would you prefer?
That would be OGM + Ogg Vobis, not Ogg Theora. OGM is a video and audio container like AVI, while Ogg Theora is a video codec (based on VP3 IIRC)
As funny as it is, its really just another urban legend
