It's not later than 2001 since the dude closed the site on "Sunday 25th November 2001 ". I used to frequent it all the time back in 2000~2001 since it was the only SP review site still being updated. He was notorously grumpy.
Here's what he posted when shutting down the site:
Site closed.
This site is now closed. This is because I haven't enjoyed reviewing at the site
for about 9 months, and because I am no longer interested in supporting the Quake
mapping scene. My email address is also closed. The current content will remain
here as an archive.
I recall reading about TCP/IP-powered Internet multiplayer DOS Quake in TECHINFO.TXT that shipped with the retail version of the game, and I quote:
Beame & Whiteside TCP/IP
------------------------
This is the only DOS TCP/IP stack supported in the test release.
It is not shareware...it's what we use on our network (in case you
were wondering why this particular stack). This has been "tested"
extensively over ethernet and you should encounter no problems
with it. Their SLIP and PPP have not been tested. When connecting
to a server using TCP/IP (UDP actually), you specifiy it's "dot notation"
address (like 123.45.67.89). You only need to specify the unique portion
of the adress. For example, if your IP address is 123.45.12.34
and the server's is 123.45.56.78, you could use "connect 56.78".
I looked around a little and sure enough, a copy of the software was avaiable in a subdirectory of idgames(2?) at ftp.cdrom.com. I knew nothing about TCP/IP networking at the time, so it was a struggle to get it all working, and in the end, the latency and overall performance was miserable and totally not worth it. Playing NetQuake with WinQuake was a much more appropriate scenario.
It's a functionality of banking apps. Yes, transfers are done either via a QR code or via one or more "Pix Keys", that the person/bussiness authorizes in their baking app. These keys can be the brazilian equivalent of your SSN, a cell phone number, an e-mail address or a randomly generated UUID-formated one.
Why is this flagged but the thread titled "Jeff Bezos killed Washington Post endorsement of Kamala Harris" with 1041 comments isn't? What am I missing?

I had to look it up, but it's Dmitry Sklyarov [1], who worked for the russian-based ElcomSoft, which was known for selling all sorts of DRM cracking programs.
>> However, ElcomSoft's product, and thus presumably the efforts of its employees including Sklyarov, were entirely legal in Russia. Sklyarov was eventually released on bail, but forced to remain in California, separated from his family, until his case concluded
Jeffry Picower estate settled for a US$7.2 billion sum circa 2010 according to Wikipedia. This Picower character seems to have had a shady fortune history, he also was found dead at his swimming pool around 2009.
Sorry - was just speaking about the possibility of buying a 6k. It’s been so long I wouldn’t trust my own memory of which board had which configuration so didn’t intend to comment on that discussion.
