Year: 2001

OK, sports fans. I have long been an advocate of thin-client solutions. Furthermore, i think that Apple has a really good opportunity to help themselves out. Think of this: a NIC like thin client, with an LCD and the usual hookups, tied intoa MacOSX server, netbooting, and with NFS mounts over either gigabit ethernet or wireless (all of which Apple has demonstrated). Kinda like the stuff
Sun is doing, but with MacOS and Mac::Office. No company wants to switch over completely to Sun, but what about Apple? hmm…..

This could be the era of thin clients. Of NFS and netboot. Low TCO and logging in from anywhere.

I am a big advocate of this technology in the educational market and workplace. Think about it: why does a sales guy or a kindergarterner need their own computer just to do simple stuff? It is time to consolidate our computing power and use it wisely.

Disabling Smart Tags under Apache 1.2 and later

From Red Hat Apache Guru Mark Cox, via Drew Meeks at Red Hat:

Adding

Header add MSSmartTagsPreventParsing "TRUE"

to httpd.conf should add the response header to every page served.

Mark and Drew haven’t tested this, but I pass it along. You can test the efficacy of this approach at http://209.204.184.53/, which returns both

MSSmartTagsPreventParsing: TRUE
X-Meta-MSSmartTagsPreventParsing: TRUE

as response headers, the latter since X-Meta-Foo in the response headers is interpreted by some browsers as equivalent to a <META name=”Foo”> tag. http://209.204.184.50/ returns the same content without the above headers.

Requires that mod_headers is installed on your copy of Apache: See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_headers.html. You can alter the scope of this by placing the “Header” directive inside a VirtualHost, Directory, Location, or Files directive.

I grabbed the whole thing incase the refered site disapears in the future.

Finally got stats working on fozbaca, since the move to the ufies box (thanks tiggersol), and the number 1 search string “interesting stuff”. Some more intresting ones “cummunism” and “she wet her”, don’t ask me why.

More Overheated Porn Hysteria
this time in the Canadian Navy.

Commodore Eric Lerhe, the chief of the Canadian Pacific fleet, has been suspended from duty and faces a possible court-martial. For high treason? No, for looking at porn on the web.

Now what do ya’ll native Canadians have to comment?

A man does not sexually harass women because he reads pornography. A man sexually harasses women because he’s an asshole.

is probably the best rebuttle to the whole “porn makes men evil to women” angle.
