  Re: skirting port blocking?
 
(...) Sure - set up your SMTP server to listen on a different port as well (not instead!) of 25... Or set up your firewall to forward connection from that other port to 25 as well. That's assuming you can set your mail client to connect to a (...) (23 years ago, 24-Feb-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  skirting port blocking?

  Re: Kiki, the ferret
 
(...) Hey, awesome! I really enjoyed seeing this on yesterday's comic: (URL) That's a real nice piece of work, David.

  Kiki, the ferret
 
(URL) Those of you who are familiar with Sluggy Freelance should recognize this character immediately. Those of you who aren't...well, Kiki is a hyperactive ferret (moreso than normal) that just begged to be immortalized in plastic. Seriously, she's (...)

[ XFUT lugnet.off-topic.geek ] (...) LoL But if I am not mistaken, John got his SGML entities right. As I remember the SGML standard, you don't have to close a SGML entity with a semicolon. Play well, Jacob (23 years ago, 15-Feb-04, to lugnet.org, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: me vs. microsoft
 
Never mind. I managed to figure it out. Basically, if you call the images a BACKGROUND attribute of the table cell (instead of putting an IMG tag inside the table cell, like I was doing), MSIE will render the page just fine.

  Re: Golden Ratio (was Over 70 LEGO products copied)
 
(...) The golden ratio is related to a different sequence: the ratio between consecutive numbers of the Fibonacci sequence approaches Phi. Or phi, if you go backwards. So, if the monolith were golden-ratio realated, its sides in the primary three (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jan-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
