Check out the all-in-ones made by Brother. Even the Cheapest MFC440CN will scan in many formats, via ADF or manually, to a flash card you insert in it. It then has an ethernet jack and you simply FTP to it to retrieve your files in TIFF or in PDF format.
I love that they'd put an FTP server in, instead of a proprietary driver-only interface. And it is fairly cheap too...
Actually most of what you mentioned there did happen in the show. They did for example almost fully explain Hawkin's point of view and his role in the attacks. It did lead to bigger questions, but it is not like LOST where each character has 50 layers of 'secrets'. Based on what you list I'd say you watched episodes 1,2 and 3.
Interesting you choose to post in a topic about an IM client, and ask why you would share files within an IM client, if you don't even like or use them.
It is hard to imagine not using IM in any capacity... It is now the preferred method of communication in many large tech companies, it isn't just a "chat with friends" medium any more.
Well, depends on the friend and depends on the situation. We also scp to each others servers, or to some who are on my tinc network we use smb from our windows machines either to other windows machines or to a linux samba server. But sometimes you just want to drag and drop a relatively small simple file, for example an mp3 (of podsafe music of course...) How would you do it in less steps?
I switched TO Gaim from Trillian at 2.0 Beta6... and I actually like it a lot better. When it comes to file transfers however, I feel its best to use the service which works. For example I have a set of friends on gtalk (jabber) and on MSN... but when we transfer files, we all have AIM accounts because file transfer works best there for all of us. Since all the services go through Ga--err pidgin, then it is really no trouble to do that.
Actually there's no need for a camera's "panoramic" mode any more. Check out Autostitch , a free for personal use program created by researchers at UBC.
Essentially you take as many pictures as you want with varying amount of overlap. Each picture can be rotated differently and even vary somewhat in exposure, and this program automatically figures out which ones go where, even throwing out ones that are not part of the scene.
It takes a ton of ram and some CPU speed but the result is better than any other method I've seen. Some examples here at the bottom of this page: AZ Snow Pictures.
I too am really interested to see what will happen. The DRM has all these levers they can pull, but they aren't without consequences.
What really needs to happen is someone needs to get the device key of a HARDWARE player, like one of those $1000 samsung bluray players. Then I'd like to see what happens. It would only take 1 person to somehow get the key out and post it for all those players to be in danger of being revoked.
huh? What you call commercial free is called shuffle on your ipod.
The XM Stations with DJ's are great.. They don't waste much time but it is nice to hear what they're thinking as they are playing their tracks.
Who said 3Mbps was even enough for DVD quality? DVD's are 5-11Mbps MPEG2 and they aren't all that great. Even accounting for a better high quality compression scheme such as MPEG4, 3Mbps will barely cut it, and only then if your connection is rock solid and saturated the entire time.
And DVD quality in my opinion isn't that great any more, with netflix sending out HDDVD and BluRay versions of their movies for the same price, it has just raised the requirements on residential internet connections before it can be a real business.
Don't get me wrong - I think it's a great idea as a suppliment to real DVD's when you're in a hotel or travelling.. but not as a replacement for optical discs.
Well I suppose most of my work typing is in a gvim xwindow across a network with 20-30ms latency. But even at home generally I am connected via network to another computer and using it that way.. I just use laptops as the wireless terminal.
I disagree. I thought the same thing when I saw MP3's for the first time in 1995, using a player on my Pentium 90. I assumed that the whole record industry would shift to that overnight, but of course we all know how that went.. Even 4-5 years after Mp3 was generally available we had Napster come out and make MP3's accessible to all. The industry killed that and it took nearly ANOTHER 5 years for digital music distribution to gain traction.. Overnight? no way..
This prediction is totally wrong about on demand movies, precisely because the industry WON'T change overnight.
So you're saying we can't tell who it is and what other searches they've done for "reasons that you won't get into". Although I've already personally seen it done.
I suppose you're right, it's really just a bunch of bloggers, news organizations, and millions of average users who are making a big deal out of this.. The guys who released this data (you) are the only ones who know that it's not a big deal. Hopefully you find yourself fired in the near future.
First off, thanks very much for the kind words. I don't know if I'm a smart guy but it's nice to hear once in a while.
Second, by the method described above, you now know user "xyz" on your site is matched with a UID in the AOL search records. From that you can go back and dump all their searches over the last 3 months.
Also, I'm sure you are kidding about the lack of a privacy problem.. Just grep for the SSN regexp and you'll see, some people searched for their SSN, address, drivers license number, full name, and DOB all on one line. Sure its not smart of them to do, but it would be nice if the company they use as their ISP didn't release that to the world without warning.
Well, lets say you owned a site or had access to the web logs from one of the sites clicked on in the released data. Now you can cross-reference that click with your own logs, and if it happens to be a forum (phpbb, vbb) you probably can figure out the user who did the click.. After that you can go through and see what else they had been searching for. Doesn't make it so anonymous.
Actually it's only 1.9% if you are a merchant who does more than $100,000 a *month*..
If you are between 0 and 3 Grand a month, you pay 2.9% + $0.30 USD...
If you are between 3 and 10 G's you pay 2.5% + $0.30 USD.
That makes google look a lot better.
It was a Sunday (for the first bigger eruption in 1980). We were supposedly in the 'safe zone', but we all know how that went. We had just gotten up out of the tents when the ground shook continuously for minutes like an earthquake.. Then we could see a grey cloud rising up near the horizon.
Very quickly, the cloud appeared to go so high that it was over us. There was lightning at the edge of the cloud. Rain began to fall immediately, I remember it was warm and black.. Looking closely at a drop you could see the individual ash particles.
By that time, we had pulled up the tent with everything in side it and threw it in the back of the truck in a single motion.
The ride back to Yakima, WA was slow, and the visibility was just about zero. It was hard to breath and the roads were jammed with panic'd people.. We later found out that the campground we were at was covered in a large amount of burning hot mud.
When we got home there was ash everywhere, and it stayed dark for what seemed like days. I remember wearing a mask for weeks afterwards to go outside.
I personally have not met anyone who feels that negative about NewEgg.
What online place do you shop at where it is significantly cheaper, has no restocking fee and pays for return shipping if you have a defective product?
Actually in my experience I haven't found any site that beats Newegg's policies.
Squirrel Mail does what you're talking about. I use it with my IMAP server. I have a web server on one machine running SquirrelMail and the imap/MTA server on another machine. Also its easily configured to run over https.
Of course, squirrelmail isn't as fancy nor does it have the indexing and search. But it seems like it would be a good starting point to add those kinds of features.

eh? PPC750 = G3, "Power4" = G4, Power5 = 970 CPU = G5.
I agree and use that as well. Of course, I live in fear of the spam bomb.
The day when a spammer for some reason decides to spam EVERYTHING at my domain, my mail server will melt.
Well I suppose most of my work typing is in a gvim xwindow across a network with 20-30ms latency. But even at home generally I am connected via network to another computer and using it that way.. I just use laptops as the wireless terminal.
