Presidential Address we would all love to hear

Friday, May 23. 2008
smil3y
WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENT, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN GIVE THE FOLLOWING
SPEECH?

"My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed.

Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.

This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq This action will be
complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.


Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the
Iraq conflict. This list is short . The United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some
of the countries listed there.

The other list contains every one not on the first l ist. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My
press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening.

Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately
and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the
Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20
YEARS.

The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hell holes and watch those government
leaders grow fat on corruption.

Need help with a famine ? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France .

In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social
problems we still have at home .. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will
hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.

Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China .

I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France , Germany , and Russia . Thanks for
all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bonne chance, mezamies.


I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in
Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded
and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid
tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some
of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York

A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each
other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change.

Mexico is also on List 2 its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment.
I will have a couple extra thousand tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to
put 'em? Yep, border security.

Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now.

We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska- which will take care of
this country's oil needs for decades to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I
refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism.
I answer them by saying, 'darn tootin.'

Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying
enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America. It is time to
eliminate homelessness in America . To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and
we won't forget.

To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to speak Arabic.

God bless America .. Thank you and good night."


ISP's suspected of throttling/blocking bittorrent traffic

Test if your ISP is manipulating BitTorrent traffic here

Certain ISPs have been shown to rate limit or block BitTorrent traffic sent by their customers. While there are multiple reports of this on the web, only a few ISPs have admitted that they manipulate BitTorrent traffic. And, to date, it is hard for users without networking expertise to gain evidence about the behavior of their ISP.

AT&T Broadband Card GT Max 3.6 with Ubuntu 8.04

Saturday, May 3. 2008
Open source & Linux
This card is supported in the current kernel 2.6.24-16-386. from dmesg.....

[ 5.522852] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3
[ 5.794934] usb 5-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[ 5.813763] option 5-1:1.0: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[ 5.813883] usb 5-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[ 5.816034] option 5-1:1.1: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[ 5.816148] usb 5-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB1
[ 5.819281] option 5-1:1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[ 5.819450] usb 5-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB2

I tried several programs designed to to be used with gsm cards, including Vodaphone mobile connect card driver for linux, available here. No dice with that, although I did have quite a few problems trying to find a version that would work eventually got 2.0 beta1 to work. Kept getting a crash with twistd, python-twisted core, uploaded a few bug reports to launchpad.

I also tried gnome ppp, this didnt work either. I eventually found wvdial command line utility. Just had to edit /etc/wvdial.conf see below for what I found works ok for me.


[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Baud = 115200
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
ISDN = 0
Phone = 99#
Password = CINGULAR1
Username = WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM


*******************************UPDATE****11/13/08************************************


If your not the command line type, then install gnome-ppp. This is basically a gui frontend for wvdial. Just choose setup, and detect modem. The card will show up as /dev/tty/USB0 . Then enter the *99# for number to dial, username and password from above, save and click connect!

Computer makers push device builders

Saturday, May 3. 2008
Open source & Linux
For years, device and peripheral builders could get away with ignoring the Linux desktop market. It was too small to matter, they would say. Things have changed. At the Linux Foundation meeting in Austin, Texas, last month, major PC vendors ASUS, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, and Lenovo said they would be telling their chipset, component, and peripheral OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) that they were going to demand Linux-compatible hardware from them.

It's one thing when Linux users ask for support; it's an entirely different thing when multi-billion-dollar companies demand it. This is an offer that the OEMs can't refuse.

Open source & Linux
Microsoft Corp. finally dangled a higher takeover bid in front of Yahoo Inc. Friday, hoping to reach a friendly deal after weeks of saber rattling. The Redmond, Wash.-based software maker upped its offer beyond the original value of $44.6 billion, or $31 per share, according to a person familiar with the matter. The specifics of the new offer weren't known by this person, who didn't want to be identified because the negotiations are still confidential.


GO yahoo! soak them for as much as you can get!
