Is the Internet dangerous in any way?

Many people are concerned that some of the content on the Internet exerts a bad influence on our children, and even on society in general.

Still other people are frightened by the sheer power of the Internet, and the unknown ways in which it may influence our future.

I don't deny that the Internet has a powerful influence over us.

You might discount that influence, saying that everythingand everyone we meet has an influence on us.

That's true.

Still, the Internet is unique for it's size, speed, and easy access to people everywhere. This gives the Internet the power to connect us to every idea and influence that exists.

And the Internet provides virtual communities where people with common interests "live" together.

Hopefully you and I make choices about which influences we let into our heads and hearts and homes.

There are plenty of things that I don't want to see, or let my children see.

It's not ridiculous to try and limit our exposure to hatred, violence, child pornography, terrorism, etc.

Is there a proxy that can't be blocked?

Theoretically, no.

However, most are not.

Try setting up a ssh connection with a SOCKS proxy.

If you want something simpler, try using https:// if the filters are really bad or even using google cache. You can also get a free webhost and setup glype.

What is difference between internet and a local area network?

Actually internet is one of the part of computer networks.There are three types of computer networks LAN(Local Area Network)where you can communicate only within some desired distance,MAN(Metropolitan Area Network)where you can communicate within a city,&WAN(Wide Area Network)where you can communicate within the entire world.Internet belongs to the third type.We can also say that Internet is one of the applications of computer networks.

Is there a picture website for kids 12 and under?

Well, Photobucket is good if you want to block sexual images, but they still allow swearing.

How do you draw shear force and bending moment diagram for frames and arches?

There are two ways to draw the shear and moment diagrams. First is by writing the shear and moment equations and the other which is more rapid is by using the relationship between load, shear, and moment. For any of the two methods, the first step is to find the reactions at the support(s).

Shear and moment diagram by writing the shear and moment equations

Cut the beam in every segment where there is a change of load. Draw the free body diagram to the left of each exploratory section. Write the shear and moment equations and with these equations, you can easily draw the shear and moment diagrams. For examples and the detailed step by step step instruction on how to do this can be found by the link below:

Using the relationship of load, shear, and moment

Drawing the shear and moment diagrams by using the relationship between load, shear, and moment is more rapid than writing the shear and moment equations. The relationship are as follows:

  1. The slope of shear = Load
  2. Slope of Moment = Shear
  3. Area of load = shear of a segment
  4. Area of shear = moment of a segment

Why is there such bad grammar on the Internet?

We should probably assume that this question is phrased and spelled as such to illustrate the same point.

This is one (of many) of the trouble areas that arise when you have a resource that everyone can help contribute to. Here we have many teams of members that work extensibility on trying to maintain the highest of standards. While having an almost unlimited number of contributors to answer questions, we only have so many that accept the task of "clean up" and maintenance.

We always do our best to encourage all of our contributors to try their best to answer questions to the best of their abilities. These abilities are different for different people. The contributor that knows the best answer for a question may not know all of the rules of grammar or have perfect spelling. We are a group and as a group we support each other to achieve the best quality we can in all of our questions and answers.

Why do people use proxies?

People use proxies for a variety of reasons. You'll find them in business, schools and colleges because they allow the control, monitoring of internet access. The proxy server intercepts each web request and forward it to the web server then sends it back to your browser. This enables a few things to happen you can log what everyone is doing on the internet, you can speed up web browsing by caching often used pages on the server, and block web sites that you don't want people to access.

People also use anonymous proxies online to protect their identity. When you use a proxy server which is configured correctly your IP address will not be logged in any web sites you visit (instead the proxy server address will be registered).

How do you put a picture of you on the internet?

Stuff like facebook helps as u can put on pics too.But if you mean like as in a website, you could sign up on that place and send an email or somthing.

Youtube, you have to create a Gmail accout to make a youtube account where you can upload slideshows and videos but if you mean like how you make your own website i do not know.

Youtube is the best so put a slide show on it or something.

Or get a book about it.

What is indirect selling?

Indirect Marketing is the distribution of a particular product through a channel that includes one or more resellers.

In German speaking countries Indirect Marketing also means to improve the critical factors for success in business. The Business University of St. Gallen (Switzerland) analyzed the prices of mergers for some years. The result: The real values of a company are immaterial. This was the basis for the "Werteorientierte Unternehmensführung" or value adding strategy (value adding leadership). Indirect Marketing is a tool to implement this form of a long term company strategy. Indirect Marketing includes for examples - the branding of a company (well-known branding and a good image by a appropriate marketingstrategy, green goods and environment protection, Corporate Social Responsibility activities, employer-branding and so on), sustainability (vision, mission, strategy, sense and confidence, ...), long term orientation to customers and quick problem-solutions (CRM, innovative products and services, flexibility, adaptability,...), chances (absolute and relative market share, selling potentials to lift, capability to be innovative, life cycle of the products and some more), linked processes (organisation, logistics, distribution, product planning and production control, strategic human resource management, knowledge management, quality management (TQM, EFQM, Kaizen, ISO,...), a cherish association with the employees (open communication, fairness, trustful, education, advanced trainings and so on), valuable networks (competent suppliers, advisers, co-operations with universities, trainers, coaches and more).

How many browsers are there?

Today, there are as many browsers as there are countries and as many customization options as there are people. However, most mainstream browsers fall into one of four categories:

-Single-Purpose/App Browsers (Can be used to browse only one webpage at a time, usually full-screen, better to appreciate web apps)

-"Light" Browsers (Usually with no more features than a tab bar, these are focused on speed and old computer support)

-Full Browsers (Tons of customization options and features, can be very heavy on RAM, most people use these, a new-ish computer is needed)

-Browser Suites (Mostly abandoned, popular during the first internet popularity surge, they often include an email client, RSS reader, chat client, etc.)

How can you speed up downloads?

The first issue is this: can you choose the source server?

You may be able to ping the resource server to see what the connection looks like or trace route to see if there is a slow router on your connection.

The usual bottleneck up-loading is your internet connection, but you should see an improvement by moving off, say, DSL to fibre optic when downloading. But nothing will change if your own last link is a poor wireless connection.

Are you writing to a fast drive on a fast connection? External drives are usually slower. Is your internal drive correctly partitioned and defragmented for your tasks? Download to \temp on its own partition where the OS is not writing its own log files. Defrag that partition and keep it clean.

Download to a better positioned server on your corp intranet and then copy or read from that server. Get IT tech advice on decompress if that is slow. Again, an IT tech or staff programmer can script that for you if the delay is affecting a mission critical process rather than you missing a chance to stand and stretch. If this is your annoying first task of the day, get it scheduled to run before you arrive - but read the log or request an informative script report. I use Rebol, but Python is known to most IT programmers.

Tip: have a tech write the result with size and date to a text area of your homepage; clear browser cache when you leave; refresh your home page when you arrive. Start using the CRC check for the file if it is known.

Your own virus check at the end of the download may be taking more time than the download itself. Skip that step with a script at your risk.

For very large files, having a spare CPU core or a spare processor and a large non-fragmented hard drive might make for slight improvement - but downloading is not what occupies many CPU cycles and should be running as a background process using cycles as available.

The note below on IDM and the like is for the case when downloading many files at the time where most of your time is spent on download-related tasks. It is unlikely to affect the speed of a single large file download as sometimes claimed.

You can yourself write a script and set it to run as a high-priority process or write a small app to use a large buffer - but with what ROI? Is the download critical to a business process? Then set a cron in crontab or re-think why the whole file is being sent each time. Can you switch from XML to JSON? From JSON to binary serialized objects (marshalling/unmarshalling) ?

Again, a question of ROI for time and effort looking into this when your OS would let you schedule the task with less effort. See: iOS 6 'Power Nap' approach.

The home page of a website is generally called?

Home page can mean different things: 1. a person's personal web site 2. the page that your browser loads right after you start it 3. the "main page" of any complex multi-page web site. The most common usage for homepage is for a person's personal web site. The other name that you'd here mostly is, well, "personal web site" or just (for example) "Johnny's web site".

How many IP addresses in one ip octet?

A complete IP address has 4 octets.

MPGMichael

We are talking IPv4 because IPv6 uses quintets.

There are 4 octets in an IPv4 address. Each octet is separated by a dot (.)

Each place has a binary value assigned to it as follows.

128s, 64s, 32s, 16s, 8s, 4, 2s, and 1s place

The place values repeat in each octet

The place values are read from right to left in binary numbers

Within each octet there are 2^8 or 2 to the 8thpower possible addresses. So the math answer is 256.

However if you write it out you will see that 128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1 = 255 and 256 is actually carried to the next octet.

So there are 255 possible addresses in each octet

For example a class C address would look like this 192.168.1.2 or binary 11000000.10101000.00000001.00000010
