Same problem here. I thought it was some promotion Google was doing sending e-mail by donkeys. Glad to know I am not the only one that has this problem. I couldn't figure out how that would be a good thing.
Those dirty, filthy Europeans are always at the forefront suppressing free speech. America is not safe as long as the Europeans have the ability to reach into our country to suppress our freedom of speech! Fight the fascism, say no to Europe!

What are the major threats against Mac OS X? Granted a lot of the underpinnings of Mac OS X are BSD userland cousins, but the default install locks down the OS quite a bit. Is my Safari going to let me "owned" like IE? Should I be paying attention to the threats on Linux userland apps? Or is it all "Don't Worry, Be Happy" for Mac users?
In my career in IT, I have always noticed that IT Outsourcing is always the last grasp for profitability taken by a management infrastructure that cannot figure out how to make the core business profitable. If only they could achieve more revenue they would not look at their backbone for sacrifices. A strong and stable business never eats at its internal support system to achieve success, it grows and expands its ability to capture new customers and markets. Otherwise it builds its house on a foundation of clay.
It's all George W. Bush's fault!!! He didn't sign the Kyoto Accord and look what happened. The Ozone hole got smaller. He is evil and hates the environment.
And less money selling software and services. Microsoft makes money off the issues that face their users with their products. SMS, MOM and ISA are few examples of products that help manage, update, monitor and protect Microsoft's other products. And they make good coin for selling and consulting those "added value" products. You can dupe most of these in linux with nagios, apt-get/emerge/up2date, snort, squid and ip tables but you don't get a nice guy from Microsoft that will hold your hand and tell you its alright you don't understand why it doesn't work exactly like the manual says. You get flamed on a message board and told to RTFM. Plus the Microsoft guy will buy you lunch!
I wonder if SenderID might require some old Exchange installs to be upgraded. When I tried searching Microsoft's web site for "SenderID Exchange 5.5", I got one link. Items I should consider when building "Commerce Solutions with Technology". So I am taking that as a yes. Cha-ching, Microsoft...Commerce Solutions with Technology at work!
Unlike chocolate and peanut butter, these are two things do not go together. Nothing destroys a really good technical discussion than an introductory quote of Chomsky. I don't care if you love Reagan or Kennedy gets you feeling all squiggly inside, its just wrong. Plain wrong. Stick with the tech you know and keep it away from what you think is the right political belief.
I always find that a NRA Lifetime Member sticker on the door sends a clear message. Maybe a couple of shooting targets with holes near the bulls-eye taped to the door will add to the effect.
What's the point? To be facetious, Unix is old and busted, linux is the new hotness. Instead of being focused on the past, look to the future. Being stamped "Unix" doesn't have the same meaning today as it did ten years ago. Bean counters today aren't asking about a Unix solution but a Linux one. Its the tech buzz word of the last 5 years. To the general public Linux has better name recognition than Unix. In fact, I commonly hear non-tech people referring to real Unix systems as "Linux".
If you have got a Mac, there is a program called "Little Snitch" that is an excellent reverse firewall. While I am not worried as much about my Mac becoming a part of a botnet, it is amazing to see how often my installed software packages want to "phone home". I have even caught third party web advertisers wanting to open ports outside of 80 and 443.
A cable modem with a reverse firewall sounds nice but I would rather handle this at the CPU level. I want to choose what to block and accept.
"The guys bitching about this new trend are inching up on 35 years old, and they grew up on old-school gameplay. They're a very vocal bunch, but they're just not the market anymore."
Then what about the mustard gas, sarin shells and the IED with a sarin warhead? You need to disprove those as well, I haven't seen any news about the Polish discovery but lets take your word about it. Disprove the rest.
Are you 100% positive that within 7 minutes "The Government" knew there were 4 planes hijacked and were on a suicidal mission? Not even the passengers of the doomed WTC jets knew until they hit the buildings. Only the last flight knew and proved that knowledge by heroically downing the jet in Pennsylvania.
You're obviously non-biased. You're so damn cool you make fun of people!
Since when did I say I was non-biased? I think my.sig gives it completely away. Do even know what "Tubby Reisenthal" refers to? If you did, you might not think it is making fun of Moore but making an apt comparison.
I was in downtown in Manhattan getting ready to go to work when the first plane hit the WTC. At first I thought it was a major airline disaster. I was in shock watching it with my own eyes. It took more than 7 minutes for the second plane to hit. Until that event occurred, I was under the full belief that this was horrible airline accident. It was not uncommon to see airliners zipping over Manhattan before 9/11, we have three major airports.
It's too bad we didn't have cameras focused on FDR when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. I wonder if it took him more than seven minutes to react. Or what did President Clinton do when the WTC was bombed the first time? What he do in the first seven minutes?
Dude, you are like so freaking right, man! Let's stick it to the Bush Evil Empire. Who cares if truth was thrown out the window. Its all about getting the unelected Chimp out of the White House.
Michael Moore is a big fat stupid white man. Why? Because I know a lot of smart people that will throw out their normal level of skepticism based on the visceral hatred of President Bush. It's sad.
Tubby Reisenthal's statement that you can download his movie on the internet still will not correct the glaring inaccuracies in F911. It is just more smoke to distract you from the content.

No it's not. Its a radio receiver not a p2p app. Settle down. It is less of a threat to the evil RIAA than Audio Hijack Pro.

Walmart appears to know this reality.
Ok, on to the next conspiracy...
How is the quality of the VOIP services? Are there delays? Dropouts? Access to local 911? What happens when the power goes out in my house?

also ignore my .sig
I can't think of one Mac that costs $4,200 even the dual processor 64bit ones. And they say Apples are overpriced! Wow.

Just wait till terrorists get their hands on one of these! Way to go scientist guys. Somebody call John Ashcroft.

I run wifibox instead of Sveasoft. Its GPL compliant and has SNMP. Hmmmm, pretty graphs.
Well when you see a DNS entry that isn't yours, you know its phoning home! Little Snitch tells you exactly where that little packets wants to travel.

We have found WMD. Even the Polish have found WMD including cyclosarin. Nasty stuff! But I guess you want the "Big Lie" to continue.
OUCH! Good one!
