Aha! I knew you were trying to violate FSF's copyright! I'm siccing RMS on you!
I have one of those too and it used to drop connections like crazy. They have a firmware upgrade (TFTP) that you can install that fixed the connections problems. I haven't done anything with the logging, so I don't know if that's improved or not...
Just Google for your model number + firmware or poke around on LinkSys's site. That's how I found it.
If you use gdm to login, add the line "1=Standard" after "0=Standard" in your gdm.conf. If you use kdm I think you just add the line ":1 local@tty1/usr/X11R6/bin/X vt8" after the line ":0 local@tty1/usr/X11R6/bin/X vt7"
I don't know exactly how the encrypted home directory works, but I *think* it will work by essentially being a loopback device on an encrypted disk image, mounted on Users/username. DiskCopy supports 128-bit AES images natively; they will probably just use your password as the key. I suppose you could store a longer passphrase in the Keychain, but then where do you store the Keychain? Not in your home directory...
With this scheme, you will certainly be able to mount other directories similarly.

If you are using tabbed browsing, check the preferences. You can set a "tabs open in back" option so when you cmd-click on a link, it opens behind. Add an option key to make it work for opening new windows as well. This behavior has been present since v74, FWIW.
As the typical slashdotter, I have not read this article, however it did give me some thoughts about a system.
Now, this system would only work if there were to be viable micropayments. Assume this is the case.
Any email sent results in a fee. Make it high, even a quarter. The money for the email goes to the recipient. If the recipient responds to the email, the money gets returned to the original sender.
For a typical user of email, (ie, not a spammer) you will in general have a balanced account. For a typical email conversation, you send messages back and forth; thus, the last person to respond would generally be the original recipient (for a zero-sum balance), or the original sender (one credit difference). We will suppose that over time, the typical user would initiate and receive equal numbers of email conversations. Thus the one-credit difference would tend to average out, leaving a zero-sum total for typical email use.
In the case of the spammer, it (not he) is sending out vast more numbers of emails than he is getting responses to (even including flames and the like). His cost will be:
(# spams - # replies) * cost per email.
For cost per email of about a quarter, you get into very unprofitable ranges very quickly. Spamming disappears!
Not to mention, if you wanted to make a few extra bucks, set up some spam honeypots and collect the $$$!
I can't speak for all libraries, but for our (admittedly small) public library, there is no record kept of the books checked out by a patron once they have been returned. The records are purely in place for inventory control.

I for one welcome our new blue-haired masters.

Bada bing! I'll be here all week...
I am however much more impressed by his organ as he does not only need some manual skills but also a good ear to set it up.
Too easy, dear god! Must...not...become...Slashdot...troll...!
That good spammer has gone bad! I thought it was rotten milk!
Thank goodness the maniacal robot balloons weren't flying the plane like I first read. That would be bad news bears.
Linux had been ported to Jon Katz's boy's C64. Impressive...

Much easier than a simple switching menu...
Why, G5's, of course!

No, it was actually a typo. He accidentally typed C-u-1-1-Z. Easy enough for anyone to do!
No, everyone copies *with* Xerox...
Oh! Gloria Estefan sang "Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers!" All this time I thought it was Mariah Carey...

That's why we used *your* tinfoil!
Hey! Stop being overly critical, guy!
Paranormal scientists currently are investigating the Roman and Greek Dieties for involvment, as they could not be found anywhere, perhaps in hiding.
Perhaps they decided it was a good time to eat something?

This only works if i is an infinitely long signed data type; otherwise, you will end once you overflow.
