In the past, there have been "fan" sites for movies, revealed to have domains registered to companies marketing the movies. If you can't look up who registered a domain, how can you tell?
(There was a slashdot.org story on this a few months ago.)
Although the intent of the patent is for distributed computing across a large network, it seems to me that it would also cover clustered computer systems like beowulf.
Maybe some day when people try to enforce these patents, defendants will look to old/. postings for tips on prior stuff.
good - it uses my full screen width

redhat.com Redone

The old site, like many today (cnn, msnbc, abcnews) only used 800x600. So on my 1024x768 screen I had a big white space on the right site of the browser (while running browser at full screen).
Good to see that the new redhat.com uses this space properly. Now if only we could get the other sites to figure it out.
Noticed that other sections of the site, like the errata, etc., haven't been redone yet.
IANAL, but in most jurisdictions, the landlord must give you 30 days notice (at least) before kicking you out, unless you are doing something like busting up the place.
Now it could be contented that 'Z' was causing damage to the ISP by having this content. Well, was there any contract provision that said, "You may not post controversial content?", or "Your site can be removed without notice?". There could have been.
Regardless, the primary concern here is that the videos may or may not have been doing any damage (I consider any small in this case), and it is hard to justify removing content just because it may be partially controversial.
Well, I tried the UT LINUX Demo in the past. The problem I found---no X11 DGA mouse support. It will probably be supported in the future though. A smooth mouse is key to a good fps.
Where there was a stolen bomb on a train, and "Oh No!", it's going to explode because the train's crashed and on fire. Nevermind that it doesn't work like that.
In a client-server system like this, there is no way to ensure that a client is actually doing what it's supposed to be doing. If you release the source code, it becomes much easier to make a fake client that pretends to process data blocks. Some groups may do this in order to get their names near the top of the list (or to sabotage the effort).
As it is now, it's a lot harder to make a fake client without source code. And before a few knee-jerk reactions get posted, like "Open source r00lz you Micro$oft whore!", for example (I use LINUX), just think about HOW you would verify the validity of the client results here from an open source program. Maybe there's a way. Please prove me wrong.
The Export Control List of Canada places no significant restriction on the export of cryptographic software, and is even more explicit about the free export of freely-available cryptographic software. Marc Plumb has done some research to test the cryptographic laws.
Slashdot Mirror
I'll bet that these will be used for survillence. Can you just see it?
guard #1: Did you hear that?
guard #2: Something over there I think.
guard #1: Ah, I see it. Just a garter snake.
I assume the 80% is the www user who clicks around and talks about "surfing" and propogates the email worms when they get them by blindly clicking.
I assume that the other 20% is advanced users and gamers.
And I really doubt that this is cost recovery. More likely profit taking.

I want to get it...whois with RedHat 6.0 doesn't.

The problem is the EULA on the Corel software--in Canada at least, you cannot sign a binding contract if you're a minor.
So does this cause packets to be dropped/corrupted, or does it interfere in some other way?

Like the 1983-era benchmark I ran that said my K6-2 350 was 5600 times as fast as an 8mhz 8088. Well maybe, but not that fast.

Look at the DNS records for the server the download is from. There's like 9 different DNS servers for it.
BUT NOT for dynamic content, where NT falls flat on it's face.
Now name me a mainstream site that uses no dynamic content.
WTF would you want to put a Gigabit connection into ANY intel box? That's the kind of thing for routers to handle and split up.
I.e. it's in stores Monday, so there's no way to change it.
But if 100 000 people download the LINUX executable, maybe they'll change their minds.

And if your local retailer doesn't carry the Q3A for LINUX, spend $5 extra and order it online.
