    Is it possible to block Kazaa completly with a comsumer-level router (like the Linksys BEFSR41)

    How to Cluster PCs

    The example people have given you are more about redundancy and load balancing rather then process clusering. If I am reading you right, you want to be able to launch an application on one machine and have 2 machines do the processing for that single application. Microsoft doesn't do that...

    Better firewall computer.

    With Linux, things change a lot over time. Therefore, the book isn't going to be exact. However, it will provide you with enough information to get the ball rowling. Then checking documentation online will do the rest. This is really what separates the men from the boys in the tech field. Once...

    Better firewall computer.

    Let me preface this by saying I actually use SmoothWall. I have even done a little mod development on it. I run it on a Celeron 900 MHz with 512 MB of RAM. However, this is overkill for SmoothWall. There's less than 1% CPU usage all the time with only 57 MB of RAM used. (Depending of the...

    Report: CBS May Can Janet, Justin From Grammys

    Because children do not know or understand consent. A reason we have statutory rape laws. Besides, if you watch closely Janet has a suprised look when her cup is removed. Common sense would say, if someone was suprised something happened, than they did not have a preconcieved notion of what was...

    Apparently CBS execs OK'd the Janet bewbie thing...

    FCC chairman Michael Powell appeared on NBC's today show and clarified that the incident did not fall under the obscenity rules. It falls under the indecent rules. Which the FCC defines as: The Commission has defined broadcast indecency as language or material that, in context, depicts or...

    Yes, I agree with you. Everyone is welcome to have an opinion. It's their first amendmant right. I also have a first amendmant right to welcome someone to leave the country. Accidental or not I hope all CBS stations are fined. Although, I feel bad for CBS because they did all they could to...

I think you should check some on my better posts, including ones in the more technical forums to determine whether I am a troll before slandering me. The post you called me out...
