Considering I earned the money coding something that you can't hold in your hands and I never held that money in my hands or even saw it, I guess it's fitting to spend it on something that doesn't exist!
Yeah I can see it now. Gitmo hopeful A is bored one night, starts armchair touring the world with Google Earth, sees a pixelated area and calls up Osama. All good plots start that way.
You forgot to figure in how much your computer costs, as well as your internet service. Ok, say someone gave you the computer and you are using your neighbor's open wireless... you are still spending your time to search the trackers and find what you want, then you have to wait to download it. Time is money. Assuming your time is valuable, this isn't "free" either.
Well, show me another email client that can scan your email messages and find dates, then offer to put them on your calendar with one click, or give you driving directions to an address that is in the email message. That can be incredibly handy. It may be the same old thing at the individual app level, but the integration and intelligence is very new. Plus it works with any browser I happen to have handy and it's over a secured connection. I couldn't even get secure email from verizon when they were my ISP, and they were charging me extra for an email account that you know will change when you move next time.
I would love to have the ability to share spreadsheets at work ala Google Spreadsheets, even if they are just task/bug lists without fancy charts, without having to strictly use IE with SharePoint and have it constantly complain that I don't have the right billy g gizmo bob installed to be able to edit a spreadsheet with one click. Siebel has broken with almost every MS update in the last few months. I'm sure my boss wastes a lot of time taking updates from everyone, updating a spreadsheet, then sending it back out. It would be much better if we could just edit the spreadsheet in realtime on a call, and see the changes. But who wants to keep company confidential data on a free public service? If that is where they are going with this with internal appliances/office suites then I am all for it. And no it's not the same as keeping a spreadsheet on a file server.
Nah.... tarpit. Put a listener on those ports (you windows users will have to reboot into linux for this. try it, you'll like it.) Open the connection, read from the channel, then just sit there until the remote end times out. If the worm is stupid enough it will connect back to your PC a few times. That slows them down, and doesn't cause any harm to the net. Or send back three bytes of data every 20 seconds or so... the remote end will buffer it expecting more to come and stretch the timeout even further.
Hmmmm.... this is exactly why IEEE is having to go back to ethernet and add nice stuff like OAM (operation, accounting/admin, and management). Just because it is easy to use doesn't make it the better solution. Same thing with MPLS. A double stack of MPLS headers on your ethernet network and label switching routers... you have ended up back where ATM was, but still missing some critical functionality.
You have the choice. If you are on a plane, train or bus, watch it on your iPod.
If you are at home or in a hotel, get an AV cable and connect the iPod to the TV. You don't need the dock, just a $19 cable that plugs into the headphone jack. It's a 1/8" pin on one side (with 4 "rings") and Right, Left and Video RCA on the other end. And if you already have a 1/8" to RCA video cable, you just have to swap a few RCA jacks for it to work correctly because Apple changed the pin outs. The connections are: iPod Red -> TV Yellow iPod Yellow -> TV White iPod White -> TV Red
You know how you can put your whole CD collection in your pocket with an iPod? Imagine being able to put your whole DVD collection in your pocket. Bring the cable and the iPod to a friends house and you have all your movies right there...
One of the biggest performance enhancements was the removal of the checksum field from the IP header. Back in the day when the internet was first built, bit errors were a much bigger problem than they are today. Now IPv6 leaves the checksum/validation up to the application, not the routers.
And small correction, the IPv6 headers are not word aligned, the first three fields in the header are Version 4 bits, Traffic Class 8 bits, and Flow Label 20 bits. That's not such a big deal, an AND and a rotate right and you have your data.
Dude, I feel for you. I was totally gonna write an article about procratination, but then my electricity got turned off cause I didn't pay my bill. And even after that, by the time my electricity was back on, my internet access was down cause my phone bill was overdue!! But knowing me, I never would have got around to even posting my article to slashdot cause I procrastinate. The worst thing about procrastination is, even if you know you have it, you never get around to doing anything about it!!!!
Sharp traffic will shred the hell out of most cable sheathing and scratches up the insides of your fiber optic cables. And it's even more important to not look into a fiberoptic link with sharp traffic coming out of it. Burns your retina and scratches your cornea. Good luck.
If you look close at the picture in the article, and follow the colors around the edges, notice that each face is intertwined with neighboring faces. I would imagine that gives it some strength, but you have to wonder about those corner bonds.
I would be curious to know how "strong" this is compared to 10 cubic nanometers of iron or salt crystal or titanium or aluminum etc. Though I suppose for its strength it could have ease of manufacture over say, 10 nanometer titanium d6s.
What do they do is very important. If they are programming, that's good.

Yeah, good stuff. I especially like it when you buy gas. If you have $10 you put in $10.02 worth and it gets rounded down. Brilliant.
Why do Macs have keyboards then?
To hold the other buttons for the mouse?

No, but I get a dishonest 54Mbps from my neighbor...

Pole worker eh? Shiny brass or the ones with the power lines on them?

It's the third step in recovering from a flame thrower hit, right after 'stop' and 'drop.'
Simple, no more packaging fee, no more breakage fee.
Instead we now have a 40% internet content preparation and distribution fee.

Don't like it? Vote for a non-fascist next time.
I'd bet about 60-70% of Americans did that last election. See how well it worked?

This way, they don't spend a cent, and have thousands of people working for free, and each of those persons are paying their own infrastructure.
