A service I was with increased priority on interactive services, like http, ftp and ssh. Smtp service dropped to a standstill, and I was without spam for several days.
A slightly more interesting validation is that last night I tried the example search on TFA (bayesian somethings) and got several of the bad ".cn" links on google.com and google.ca. When I tried today, all of these links were gone. Apparently Google is also taking this seriously.
The dolphins were paying Adams to provide good PR. After "they" thanked us for the fish, how could we think that they'd be so ethically challenged as to run MicroSoft? It's a in depth conspiracy, run by very smart mammals - do you think that, say, Steve "monkey-boy" Ballmer could think this stuff up?
Well, I guess it balances off the extra publicity they gave the asshat who started this "block firefox" thing. I was curious enough to go his website, blocking advertising of course, and the guy is raging nut-ball. It's better that his stuff doesn't get to the eyes of the world.
Well, yeah. It's basically that you (or the FEM program) blinked and missed the wave passing through your element. Either you need to decrease your time step or slow the wave down. (Or change your mesh, which you indicate isn't optimal.)
Less than one and the solution invariably develops about a 5% error
Really? That sounds like a meshing problem. Somewhere there is too large a difference in mesh sizes.
This isn't my field, (though it is close) and it's not likely many here can help you.
I recommend that you try one of the FEA mailing lists for help. Most are product specific, but there is usually some person on them that can tell you where to go. (For more help that is.)
So, if someone were to mention Isaac Asimov or Robert Silverberg on a prominent website, there could be an email to take that posting down? You'd best read this message quickly, then.
I have enjoyed reading work from both of these authors for several decades. It's too bad that their names are being besmirched like this.
the modern garbage that's overly manufactured and over priced.
I'm older, and I have to take some exception to this. There are a number of good bands today who, being calendarically challenged, weren't able to perform in the 60's. And yet, they are able to sell their music for a decent price. An example: Metric's CDs are [or were - are they cheaper now?] priced at $10.00 CDN at HMV. Very popular, relatively new, band.
I welcome the changes to HMV's pricing and will be at the mall this weekend to see what can be picked up for reduced prices. I do have some concerns about what this means to smaller chains and the independent music sellers, some of whom have a better selection than HMV.
See the Australian gov't page. They are simply using off-the-shelf proxy filters. (It's nice to see that the Mac filter supports IE 7. How?) It shouldn't be too difficult to bypass these. I don't think half an hour should be needed.
As the site says:
PLEASE NOTE: Internet content filters are a tool to be used in conjunction with parental supervision they do not provide total protection in themselves.
Opera will let you turn off Java globally and permit on a per-site basis. The No-Script add-on will allow you to do something similar for Firefox (as per TFA). There really is no reason to be caught by this.
With my filtering software enabled, I didn't see your IFrames at all. I don't think you'll get much information from that visit... on the other hand, my "unfiltered" visit appears to be also unfiltered by my ISP.
Agreed, the best way to see what they're collecting is to watch the stream and actually see it. However, the real question isn't what they collect, but what do they do with it? It's fairly obvious that they send back all of your browsing habits.
Thank you for noticing. Y'know, if I had mod points, I'd've given you a bunch.
Oh wait, someone already did.;-)
Biting sarcasm aside, it seems that Digg appeals to a wider community than/. does. It's only realistic that it would get a higher traffic rating, and I'm not sure this comparison does much to illustrate "why Alexa is bad."
While the basic methodology of Alexa under-represents the more techo-elite (you know who you are, you beautiful mod point carriers, you), for the information Alexa's clients want, this might be a good thing. For example, how many here use an advertisement blocker of some sort? (I've heard that they can speed up page loading.)

Next?
I sleep at night. All night. Can I do this during the day sometime?
You can see that from here?

Yeah, get a cluster of those out there. Just make sure they are RFC 1149 compatible.
Anyway, the dolphins have had one of their paid monkeys continue the conspiracy with denials and obfuscation.

What is "bimbo" and "vereneal disease", Alex?
Welcome to /.. Hope you enjoyed your stay.
+1 Insightful, for using "glaive"
It's my favourite low impact program.

Isn't "suuuee suuee" (pronounced sue-ie sue-ie) the call to get hogs to come to you?
No, the Martian language is very different from Sumerian - please re-read the authoritative text for more information.

An array? Like, a cluster of CowboyNeals?

You haven't been here long - read this.
I just look at the sexy pictures.

It's rather like a user's manual. Except the characters aren't Unicode.
