PLATO was loved by teachers and students in my local school system in the late 90s. Then they moved onto COMPASS until someone had the idea, let's do it in the cloud... Apex and Odyssey were born. They tell me that these programs have contributed to their great successes as defined by the "No Child Left Behind" act.
If that's truly your external IP then I would start with a FOIA Requisition to registra@nic.mil. Not knowing how well or how long they maintain Internal - External IP Crossreferences or your internal licensing scheme, it could be a wild goose chase. I don't remember to what extent the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that data to be maintained or if it would even apply to the DoD.
If there was a legal need, the databases could be supoenaed, but the previous paragraph's points still may apply.
You are spot on with your analogy. Ubuntu calls itself "Linux for Human Beings" and is trying to be the cuddle and coddle flavor of the Linux World. It is trying to make itself more attractive to that need their OS to think for them. In a manner of speaking.
Sci Fi rewrote its name to appeal to Non-Sci-Fi & Fantasy Geeks. So it only makes sense that they change their programming to cast a bigger net into the demographic pool.
Facebook, MySpace are blocked by law in all schools and public libraries that receive Federal Technology Dollars called E-Rate. The Children's Internet Protection Act was created as back door censorship by making it an additional require for poorer districts to receive needed funds to stay technologically relevant. Earlier attempts to censor the web at these locations were overturned by the Supreme Court on First Amendment Grounds.
It has created a cat and mouse game as kids find new proxies to circumvent black listing, including building their own Linux based Proxies at home, and MIS Depts charged with complying with the law. But, as smart phones continue to proliferate amongst the students, the law will be lose its impact.
The Pirates have to only taken a more aggressive path in hopes it will dissuade anymore counterattacks against them. You know, the "Biggest Bully in the Schoolyard" principle.
This is their livelihood, they will fight until the costs become too great. Ergo, you will have escalation before resolution.
Although, if I ever get a political push-poll robocall that starts by asking "are there stairs in your house?" I will answer long enough to ensure them I am protected.
But they would only call if they haven't pushed or shoved you down the stairs yet, like Grandpa. Grandpa is protected.
I've been polled three or four times in the last month and a half. Since I prefer a Libertarian or NPA Canditates, but I seem to be added to the margin of error instead of my candidate(s) getting any love.
On that same token, let's disable death by friendly fire. Wouldn't want to cause undue stress of Military Families who lost their loved ones that way or remind football fans of Pat Tillman of that great travisty either.
At this rate, we should rewrite all war games to make opposing sides throw soft, fluffy snowballs at each other then finish the game with both sides drinking hot chocolate and singing "We Are the World" together.
Both the Mortgage Broker and the Lender are required to pull credit history reports and review all the other financial details already available at the initiation of the loan process. Loan Applicants also are usually compelled to sign paperwork enabling the Lending Institution the right to pull and review their Income Tax records directly from the IRS as part of the credit worthy, income to debt ratio.
Most investors rely on the fact that the initiating parties have done their homework as opposed to them undertaking the onerous task of auditing every individual applicant included in the package that tended to number in the thousands.
The reliability of Social Networks as a gauge of person, even who his/her/its said friends are is flawed. Most people to live "larger than IRL" in their online persona even when they are participating with their real identity. Who they friend may or may not always be indicative of their actual station in life. At least that has been my experience.
This is true to the point that the purchaser/investor was relying on alleged good information from the derivatives seller as required to qualify for the loan in the first place. "Good Faith" between lenders so to speak. There was illegal activity going on at the lowest level of the process and definite collusion between the brokers and lenders, the initiating parties.

From TFA:
"...cooperative games can mimic the organization of gangs and lead to the actual development thereof."
I'd say they'd ban soccer or basketball next.

Hello Slashdotters and your almight power of click. Thanks for coming to the site. If you can wait about 30 minutes, we'll have it back up.
BTW, we tried to plan for a Slashdotting as much as we could when we setup the server for the site. Apparently still not enough.

I too prefer to order CDs and rip my own MP3

ARPANET, Perhaps.

... someone mentioned Police Squad!!
I'm SPC certified, thank-you very much, and you missed the joke. Then again, I was never really good at making them...

I agree. The aide should been thrown in jail.
Mike Muuss must be spinning in his grave.

Wouldn't that require an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of terminals?
LOL! Mod parent up!!
So, if you have "The Knack" you are destined to be a terrorist? That explains why Dilbert is on the FBI Watch List.
