You're a fool mr dave420. I'm glad you only smoke pot in the comfort and safety of your own home, and never do anything remotely illegal outside of your front door.
Forgive me, but I have little to no interest in funneling money to a for-profit corporation that, all mottos, blinders and fanboys aside, has profit and its success, not mine, as its goal.
So.... you want AT&T to win then? Wait. What? What drugs are you on?
actually, you'll notice that the original poster's word choice didn't indicate what the dev said exactly. He said "The obvious thought is that virtualization=slow. " That may be how they interpreted the dev's complaint, but since he didn't quote the dev exactly, we can't know for sure.
But, what we know now is that there is a definite correlation between pointing out someone's mistake, and them flaming you on slashdot. Oh, and modding you troll. That's also much more likely to happen apparently.
For example, one of our developers found that web pages were slower on our new virtual servers. The obvious thought is that virtualization=slow. It turns out that compression hadn't been turned on for those servers.
So how was he wrong? The virtual servers were slower.
I meant to tie that in with the topic... these password managers make life easy. The person that comes up with a secure, non hackable implimentation of it will make a fortune.
I used to think (back in my tech support days) that people who couldn't remember their password were just plain stupid. These days, I work in a large firm that has tons of different passwords for everything. Unix passwords, windows passwords, spam mail setting utility password, time tracking utilities have passwords, passwords are required for clearcase/clearquest, remote login, etc. Each of them has different password complexity rules. I no longer criticize people for forgetting their password.
Wednesday's committee deliberations centered on finding compromises acceptable to opponents -- namely the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, manufacturers, and large research universities -- so that the bill could win approval.
I wasn't aware that the biotech industries, manufacturers, and large research universities were the ones voting on it.
To get the book, go to the Pirate Bay and search for "Harry Potter." You'll see several links to versions offered through Bittorrent, as well as some links to various sites on the Web that offer a PDF of all the pictures. (That's the sort I got.) Have fun!
AI65. A Thermal Interrupt is Not Generated when the Current Temperature is Invalid Problem: When the DTS (Digital Thermal Sensor) crosses one of its programmed thresholds it generates an interrupt and logs the event (IA32_THERM_STATUS MSR (019Ch) bits [9,7]). Due to this erratum, if the DTS reaches an invalid temperature (as indicated IA32_THERM_STATUS MSR bit[31]) it does not generate an interrupt even if one of the programmed thresholds is crossed and the corresponding log bits become set. Implication: When the temperature reaches an invalid temperature the CPU does not generate a Thermal interrupt even if a programmed threshold is crossed. Workaround: None identified. Status: For the steppings affected, see the Summary Tables of Changes.
I don't see why this is an issue. The Intel Desktop temperature monitor doesn't even work on my E6600, so how can it detect an invalid temperature? In other news, alternative temperature monitor programs (like speedfan)work, while the official intel one does not.
Although I heard about it from ecogeek. It has links to the Ars Technica article also, but I really just wanted to point out the nice Office Space picture.
Of course they are doing it 'Under the guise of fighting spam'. That's how you disguise reporting your information to the government. This way you can call it a surcharge instead of calling it a tax.
We must be vigilant.
It was not immediately clear what Gonzales and Mueller meant by suggesting that network data be retained. One possibility is requiring Internet providers to record the Internet addresses their customers are temporarily assigned. A more extensive mandate would require companies to keep track of e-mail messages sent, Web pages visited and perhaps even instant-messaging correspondents.
I wouldn't be upset if Microsoft started a "17 means 17" program, where if they received proof of a retaler selling "M for Mature" games to people under 17, they would cut off that retailer from all shipments of Microsoft products for 6 months.
Maybe you should read the category labeled Exotic ice in the article..
But the high pressures in the planet's interior would compress the water so much that it would stay solid even at hundreds of degrees Celsius - the expected temperatures inside the planet. There are a variety of exotic 'hot ice' states possible in such conditions, with names like 'Ice VII' and 'Ice X'.
b) They manually typed in the addresses. Just this point doesn't make sense. How many addresses do you manually type in? Not click from an address book, not type in the first couple letters and hit TAB to auto-complete... If anything the less savvy user would lean on crutches like mailing lists and auto-completion far more than manually typing in long addresses.
They probably use Outlook. Outlook will remember what addresses you've typed in, but you have to type it in at least once, and there is where the errors most likely came from. Alternately, their pcs could outlook configured to NOT remember names for security reasons. It's not that hard. Tools>Options>Email Options>Advanced Email Options>uncheck remember names. On the other hand, how many bureaucrats would know how to re-enable that option? Odds are less than 1%.
Why would this be disabled for security reasons? In a place where the identity of witnesses must be preserved, you do not want any way to point to a contact whose primary means of communication is email. The.NK2 file that remembers addresses is not encrypted by default (I don't even know if it can be). Don't believe me? Go to c:Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and open the NK2 file there with wordpad or note pad or your editor of choice (assuming it's not word).
Your denial that this is possible is forgetting rule number one. Never underestimate the ability of your users to FUCK YOUR SHIT UP.
President Zarlak of the Kharyak Confederation: For much of the last millenium, Ksharyak's defense has relied on the Cold War doctrines of deterrence and containment. In some cases, those strategies still apply, but new threats also require new thinking. Deterrence, the promise of massive retaliation against Solar Systems, means nothing, against shadowy, terrorist networks with no home planet or citizens to defend. Containment is not possible when unbalanced dictators with weapons of mass destruction can deliver those weapons on missiles or secretly provide them to terrorists' allies. Thus we have started a war plan that we call "Shock and Awe". We believe it is working. We believe that no group will again threaten the sovereignty of the Kharyak Confederation after this display. Even the bastard stepchildren of the universe are aware of our power now.
From the words of a flea bag in the far reaches of the universe:
"Of all exploding stars ever observed, this was the king," said Alex Filippenko, UC Berkeley astronomer and leader of the ground-based observations at the University of California's Lick Observatory in California and the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii. "We were astonished to see how bright it got, and how long it lasted."

Because it's a US government written worm? I imagine that we needed to up the ante in the botnet arms race with China.

Anyone with 420 in their username is pretty much assured to either currently smoke pot, occassionaly poke smot, or has smoked pot in the past.

Whoooosh. That was the sound of a joke flying over your head.
please allow me to correct myself before I get jumped on. the fault lies in my intel motherboard (D975xbx2), using the intel chip E6600.

What are all the script kiddies going to do now? For the love of god, won't somebody think of the children?
you can say what you will about television but it effects everyone's life in North America even if they don't watch it.
Huh? How? I don't watch TV and it doesn't affect my life at all. Wow that was easy than I thought it would be to argue against.
And suddenly she's going to make a shitload of money because of the lawsuit.

This would just drive up demand for the game.
with I had mod points. Thanks for the tip!
time travel is so last year.
The solution is of course to use a program like WASTE and create a small network of friends (and by friend I mean non-leech).
