I don't know about you, but I plan to live forever. Or die trying.
Sorry, but I've never heard "get fucked" uttered by someone from the USA. You appear to be an Aussie, mate.
I don't know about calling the library, but when I was a kid, we'd call 411 and ask questions. They were called "information".
It would seem that all of their sets are based on the original set plans which were designed for the 4:3 aspect ratio. Trying to shoot in a widescreen format would likely show parts of the set which weren't intended. I mean, check out how much of that bridge set is open plywood. That set requires some strictly framed shots to work right.
I was going to post RPGMaker as well. It has some good tools for character and story development. Picked this up for my kid a year or so ago. She loves it.
The proper reply was "Soon".
Under the Tools menu, there is an Experimental sub-menu. Select "Show duplicate files". Then I just deleted everything that shows up. Seems to work just fine. It's not automatic or anything, but it works.
Perhaps he was just burning CDs or DVDs.
Slashcode dropped my sarcasm tags.....
There is an implied eye rolling in the above post.
I think there's a 25 or 30 port USB hub up in the new Slashdot Deals section
So if you hit a site that has 5-10 of your "blocked" sites, you have to parse that file each time, for each query. Talk about a waste of resources.
Also, my DNS box is doing more than just serving up dns requests. You still haven't shown me any kind of benchmark. Only your made up numbers and statistics.
Come on... Step up. Show me a single study that compares a million+ line host file against a single dns query for the same item.
As for adding complexity... Yah, I guess it does add some. Things that someone that only knows how to parse a plain text file in notepad might not grasp...
Bring it on! Show me the study!
So your only comeback is that a DNS server uses more power? Really? Is that the best you got?
Still no response to #10. Come on buddy... show me the benchmarks. I want to see the speed difference between parsing a 1,000,000+ text file vs a single dns query.
Take your time.. I'll wait.
Are you sure you're not the lovechild of Bennett Haselton and the Timecube guy?
1.) Secure you vs. known malicious sites/servers (beyond malicious adbanners - see 2 thru 6 below next)
2.) Secure you vs. downed DNS servers aiding reliability
I run my own DNS server.
3.) Secure you vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns servers
See the answer to 2 above
4.) Protect you vs. fastflux using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
Yup. Don't install shit from unknown sources.
5.) Protect you vs. dynamic dns using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
See Answer to #2 above.
6.) Protect you vs. domain generation algorithm using botnet attacks and stop their communications back to their C&C servers
Again, see #2
7.) Speed you up for websurfing not only by adblocking but also hardcoding favorite sites
Utterly stupid approach since every decent site used CDNs now.
8.) Get you past a dnsbl you may not agree with
See #2 above
9.) Keep you off dns request logs
See #2 above
10.) Do all of those things and block ads (better than adblock) more efficiently in cpu cycles and memory usage
Show me the benchmarks
11.) Work on ANY webbound application (think stand-alone email programs, for example).
See #2.
12.) Give you direct, easily notepad/texteditor controlled data for all of the above
Hmm. vi on my dns server seems to work fine.
13.) Block out trackers
See #2.
14.) Block spam mails sources
Don't sign up for stupid sites using real email addresses and/or use an email specifically for those sites and blackhole the resulting email.
15.) Block phishing mails sources
Have a little common sense and this isn't an issue.
Debating if I should paste this after every one of your spam posts...
Don't worry. That checkbox doesn't do anything since Dice took over anyways.
