There are certain cases where Grub wont work. I've managed some HP DL 320 machines and with certain hardware setups, grub just doesnt boot the machine, hangs up even before putting up a prompt and lilo just works.
Anti phising functionality is available to Firefox also thru extension. Netcraft Toolbar provides this but i have have afaint recollection that there was another extension too..
Im not audiophile but aint the colouring the whole purpose of analog systems ? The sound is warmer so to speak.
For example, im amateur singer minger myself, had my share of studio work. All the songs ive recorded have been with various analog and digital equipment and ive co me to learn that certain microphones colour the recorded vocal in different way than other mics. Some good, some bad. Some producers are switching mics during the recording. Not because they want the real thing but because they want it in, in certain colouring.
Recording is just the opposite of sound production , yeah maybe someone likes it to "the real thing" but others like it coloured for their taste.
In the end of your post you say that there are no real studios doing analog recording. Yeah, that is so. Analog media is thing of the past now but there are still juge loads of analog equipment in front of the harddrive, tube amplifiers, compressors and various mics. The colour the sound allready to the degree that the producer is happy and thus allows them the drawback of having faster access time and easier editing vs "analog sound".
Also many producers use analog tapes as effect to their music. They transfer the sound to the tape when everything is finnished..
Check it out here, let me know what you think (PS. the website will shut down automatically if it starts getting too many hits, so tell your friends, but don't tell/.;-).
Rise of the indy music.mmm.. i just recently read article about how Vivendi effectively shut down mp3.com. Read the article and start building your tinfoil hats!
The article below could provide some historical background of the online
artist community. It is originally posted on
http://www.dubroom.org/articles/0009.htm
------
MP3.com, the biggest collection of music from independent online artists.
Not anymore, though. In what seems to be a final and perhaps lethal strike
against the online artist community, VIVENDI UNIVERSAL destroyed around
three terabytes of music before selling the MP3.com domain to CNET.com.
This is the story, the ballad, of MP3.com as told by one of the pioneers in
the online artist community.
VIVENDI wasn't the original owner of MP3.com, but they took the website
over just after they sucked the original owners empty. A look at the
complete story reveals the true intend of the musical industrial complex
and the way they try to achieve their goal.
Let's start at the beginning.
In about 1998, 1999, there was a sort of "golden age" of MP3. The format
looked very promising because it had created a whole new generation of
artists. Sites such as MP3.com began to make it possible for artists to
receive a royalty over their downloads. If someone listened to or
downloaded your music, you would get a few cents. Other programs were
created to have your music heard and get some royalty payment.
All these things were very good for the Artist and the Listener. I could
see that I was approaching a situation in which this could totally provide
me with my daily bread. The listener could listen to music without having
to buy it first; I would have direct response to my releases.
In this same time, the MP3 format was also used in a different way. People
would start to record their records and rip the CD's, put everything in MP3
format on their computer and use software to exchange music with others.
One of the first pieces of software that enabled people to do that, was
called "Napster", perhaps some of you remember the name.
Until this time, I'm still talking about '98, '99, the music industry
wasn't really around on the Internet. They were still sitting in their
ivory towers, selling people the stuff they want people to buy, telling
artists to play what they want artists to play, you know, the usual things
dictators and criminals do. The music industry was totally unaware of the
revolution that took place in Cyberspace.
But right under their nose, a whole new generation of artists was formed.
Artists independent from the main music industrial complex, building up an
audience. And they were becoming more and more popular. Download charts at
MP3.com revealed the immense popularity of many new artists. Their names
were often above some better-known names.
Then, a hard noise came out of a Hollywood villa. The residence from a
member of a band called Metallica, to be precise. The hard noise wasn't a
new tune, but a complaint. It had come to the attention of this particular
individual, that people were actually sharing Metallica music over the
Internet, through Napster.
The musician complained that he would lose income as a result of the music
sharing that was going on through the Napster software. I'm not a heavy
Metal fan, but a bitter Metallica listener told I, that this particular
band started out by having people share their music through tape sharing.
And I still wonder, why an artist who can live a good life, would complain
over people liking his music enough to share it with others.
Because, through the action of this artist, and many other ofcourse, the
online Artist community was being attacked, as I will expose later on. So
one can safely say that this Metallica member did not have the interest of
the online artist in mind.
The music industry woke up from their sleep, their little nap, and they
began their take on Napster. Backed by a multi-million dollar well of
money, th
Ruffly about 100k people got the "chipped" id card (and about 5M people here). Nobody uses it, its not required anywhere, there's absolutely not momemtum behind it. And it doesnt work in linux;) (atleast it didnt few years ago)
Saying its dead and buried would be understatement.
The problem ? It costs too much and average-pertti doesnt really get anything for his money..
You do know that same if not most news papers print out news that are usually written by news agencies like STT, Reuters, Itar-Tass and such..
And many "news" websites do this too. I used to be admin in the one of the biggest portals in Finland and we had straight feed from STT, they would send article material with ftp into our servers and data would get automatically appended into the article database and show to the users..
Atleast this guy goes to the net and gathers the interesting things by himself to maintain "the quality" of news..
[19:54] [jani} you will be heavily hammered now [19:54] [joseChristmas} yay! [19:54] [joseChristmas} you just saw on slashdot? [19:54] [jani} yes.

You do know that in germany the currency is not a dollar but euro.
For comparison, in finland there's also rent-a-bikes scattered all over the helsinki area. The "rent" takes 2 euro coin which you get back after you leave the big to appropriate place.
For even more comparision, the bus/metro/tram fares are 2 euros for 1 hour of traffic inside short distances, 3.4e for 1½ hours in long distances in capital area of finland (3 cities: Helsinki/Espoo/Vantaa)
Imho, Ursula doesnt even mention skincolour in her blog. The most problematic point she tries to make is that the world of Earthsea is someone transfered to "Believers" and "nonbelievers".
And, lets not forget about the fact that the director is saying that Le Guin did "hidden message" about the duality of this ongoing world and she wanted to make a statement in her books.
Which she obviously didnt.
And as you raised the point about the skincolours. How about the director's quote:
"We've tried to capture all the levels of spiritualism, emotional content and metaphorical messages"
So, skincolour of majority in the books being non-caucasian-looking wasnt metaphor worth of saving for ?

Yes, its replication based and yes i agree with you about MySQL. I just pointed out the software that helps abit to move MySQL to the right direction.
Check out M/Cluster software from Emicnetworks for mysql h/a clustering..
Real question is: do you get a blowjob if you ask one or do you have to pay for it?
Man, unix skills ? I'd love if they knew what is the difference of dumb-terminal and real monitor - and why they cannot use one with the another..
no, typo in my Reply - salive -> saliva Oh the embarrashment My defence: english is not my native tongue.
Oh for god's sake! TYPO!!!!! =)
