@ChrisF Oh wow, that's pretty cold for most places. With the wind chill, we're down to -6°C here at the moment, with similar temperatures forecast for this evening.
@TimStone That's what I was thinking. The only problem is that my .net renewal's not due until May and I'd like to synchronise the dates. However, if I wait I risk someone stepping in.
Heh, I need to pick up a new domain for myself. I have a Rackspace cloud server that's just been idling, waiting for me to move things over from my old shared hosting...But I've never had a personal domain really, only one for the web development that I used to do.
I got the .net domain when I was out of work a couple of years ago to see if I could get any business. I got some hits - but only when I was back in work!
It's certainly good to have a back up plan. I'm a little lacking in that area, but aside from catastrophic company failure, I should be good for the next few years, heh.
I wonder why do you implement so many nice features without showing them to all users? I am visiting Stack Overflow for about 5 months. 2 days ago I asked something here on meta and during it I found plenty of interesting information here. For example:
I had no idea about Search!
I didn't know ...
Hello,
I've asked questions that I thought were on topic, and really should have just been, but the questions get booted as off-topic on over 4 different stack exchange sites before one accepts them.
This process is inefficient, embarrassing, frustrating, and causes unnecessary tension. There ...

it seems to be an argument in favor of one of those processors vs. the other
but I can barely parse a sentence of it :)
> Anyone like the OP (glw165) can certainly benefit from a vanilla P67 given their specs and an additional GTX470, a pair of 470's won't need more than x8 each. But if planning a 500 or 600 someday with the P67 board, might as well get one with an nF200 or Lucid Hydra for extra lanes
good arguments, but boy, the 990X is a little sun, compared to SB, and will end up being harder to cool/noisier, as well as requiring a video card. But there's bragging rights in a 990X.
I ditched a home media server in favor of a 5 watt plug computer primarily to save on electricity... and switched from xbox to google tv for netflix on the TV to save on power and fan noise
^ new home server, sharing that USB drive on the network and running nightly backups
@GregHewgill I don't like strsep() and now I'm screaming at openssl/des.h :P
since the only sensible use of DES is the triple DES, doing it like that takes three times as much massaging.
t_cryptokey get_random_key(){
t_cryptokey result; //yes, it's an array, too late to refactor this.
des_random_key(result);
des_random_key(result+8);
des_random_key(result+16);
return result;
}
