Discussion/Binary Group
It's very easy
to find mass quantities of answers but almost impossible to find good
questions. This is no exception.
This newsgroup
was created to help keep binary files out of the original newsgroup
alt.clubs-just-for-fun. You may ask "What is a binary file?"
Many feuds and disagreements have been generated over what is or is not
a binary file. The following is a textbook definition:
Definition for: binary file
A file that
contains codes that are not ASCII characters. A binary file could
be a file with executable machine language code. Binary files must be encoded in
order to transmit them over a network, and decoded on the receiving
end. BinHex and uuencode are two programs which can be used to
encode binary files.
That's fine but what is allowed in this newsgroup?
Posts with
attachments of pictures or other binary files and of course embedded
files in HTML formatted posts. Posts with sound.
Is there a post size limit?
We expect that
you would do the polite thing and mention in the Subject of your post
that a binary is larger than 100K. We also expect that everybody have
the appropriate browser and use features that would tell them how large
other posts are on JIFFY. <DUH>
How do I view the different formats?
If you need
instructions, we the dedicated Jiffians will be glad to help
you. But, you will have to stoop way below your stupid Sock Puppet and
ask for help.
Ok so what is not allowed in this newsgroup?
Pornography:
1.
Sexually explicit material: films, writings, photographs, or other
materials that are sexually explicit and intended to cause sexual
arousal.
2. Sexual
images industry: the production or sale of sexually explicit
films, or other materials.
Oh come on!!!!
All right cartoons are ok
but not full frontal nudes of men or women or others... either alone
or engaged in a sexual act.
