Re: [Plug] Bandwidth sharing


Well my now working 8.4GB HD should be arriving any day now, so I think I'll start at www.yahoo.com and work my way through the web from there. Let's see, 8,400,000,000 bytes, 56K connection, don't know how fast I connect here, but when I used W95 is was usually about 50,000 bits/sec. So that's 8,400,000,000/6250 which is about 1344,000 seconds, which is about 16 days assuming fairly optimal conditions. Yeah, I think I can swing that.

If I Ever Became An Evil Overlord:
70. When my guards split up to search for intruders, they will always travel
in groups of at least two. They will be trained so that if one of them
disappears mysteriously while on patrol, the other will immediately initiate
an alert and call for backup instead of quizzically peering around a corner.

If you do that, check out the options for both depth and domain control.
It follows everything.... incuding banner ads. Its pretty easy to let it
get out of control and spider sites you didnt mean to.

Not that I've ever done that or anything.... :)

When I grow up, I wanna be more like me.
I had a clue. I didn't like it. I took it back and exchanged it for an
attitude.
