Slashdot Mirror
Slashback: Courseware, Towers, Drives
Your school or mine? Francis Esmonde-White writes "Dr. Joe Schwarcz (aka 'Dr. Joe' on the discovery channel & Montreal radio station CJAD), Dr. Ariel Fenster, and Dr. David Harpp at McGill have been running the OCS (Office for Chemistry and Society) for some time now. Their view is that it is academia's responsibility to communicate science to the public. One such facet of this has been to put up a series of lectures available freely through the internet.
I thought this may be interesting in light of MIT's OpenCourseWare, and that there are other major online university education projects around... even if they aren't on the same scale. In any case, here is your chance to learn about all the neat stuff you were interested in, but never learned in your introductory chem class. My first class (world of chemistry) with 'Dr. Joe' included topics like medications, plastics, explosives and pollution, so it isn't the boring chemistry you may have been tortured with in high school!"
Put this in your drive and smoke it. Linuxfr.org says (translated from French):
' GNU Generation, a student association at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne, proudly announces the release of GNUWin-II, a collection of free and open source software for Windows, which luckily contains most of the software that was proposed some days ago on slashdot.'It comes on a CD with more than 50 applications, articles, and a four-language (yes it's Swiss) html based interface to help newcomers discover Free Software. The complete GNUWin-II can be browsed online. The ISO image of the CD can be downloaded here or better on Swiss SunSITE mirror ftp or http.
But who can fit the most soundcards in one machine? An anonymous reader writes "As a follow up to the 37 operating systems, 1 PC you should check out this site http://fileserver.coleskingdom.com 24 hard drives in one PC. And he managed it under Windows 95."
Maybe it was the Zip factor. generic-man writes "Dataplay, a company built around creating a new miniature optical disc format, has announced that all employees have been put on leave as the company tries to come up with the $50 million it needs to stay afloat. The future of Dataplay is still up in the air."
Recursive trailers. A lot of readers were disappointed in the viewing options for the Two Towers trailer posted yesterday anakin876 writes "The TTT Hi-Res trailer is out, but still semi-hidden. The Apple Quicktime Page doesn't have the trailer listed (yet) but it does exist."
Harm, foul. Boone^ writes "You'll remember when California signed a huge deal with state consultant and Oracle reseller Logicon Inc. only to have it blow up in their face [1,2,3]. Gov. Gray Davis finally signed legislation ending the exemption for the state's information technology purchases from California's conflict-of-interest laws. Similar bills have come across the Governor's desk, but Pete Wilson and Davis both vetoed them in the past. Apparently the policy of 'no harm, no foul' reigns out west, since it takes a fiasco to produce change."
That many licenses must be worth some jetlag. In August, we mentioned the possibility (floated by Telstra itself) that the Australian phone company was considering rolling out Linux on as many as 45,000 desktops; an anonymous reader notes that Microsoft is not sitting by for that, and has dispatched Steve Ballmer to convince Telstra otherwise.
fpfpfpfpfpf
may I have another (fp)?
1. You are gay.
2. ???
3. Profit!!!
I just heard this on the Radio. TV Guide creator Walter Annenburg was found dead at 94. Truly an American Icon.
(For the humor impaired, this is a troll parody...)
shouting and doing the monkey dance with Kylie Minogue
GIVE IT UP FOR ME!!!
Well, I guess this Windows box is complete from "A-Z"!
"n August, we mentioned the possibility (floated by Telstra itself) that the Australian phone company was considering rolling out Linux on as many as 45,000 desktops... "
Assuming they're running RedHat, where are they going to keep their 135,000 system discs?
I mean, *tweaking* Mac oh-ess-eckss? Shee-yeah right! The day you can produce a Macintosh user who can actually do something USEFUL with a computer -- ANY -- computer, is the day VA Research^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Linux^H^H^H^H^ Software actually makes a profit and Towelboy Squeal actually has something meaningful to contribute, besides all that excess fat, I mean.
"Microsoft is not sitting by for that, and has dispatched Steve Ballmer to convince Telstra otherwise. "
I think I see a pattern here -- announce move to linux on day 1, on day 2 sign a deeeeeply discounted deal with Microsoft.

Bojay Iverson, J'raxis, WIPO, my penis.
Can someone explain to me why apple zips (or uses stuffit) on their movies? Wouldn't you think that a good compression algorithm in their encoder would take care of most of it? (and it does -- full screen is 39 meg zipped, 40 unzipped)
Seems like Linux has a viable strategy in the works. Wonder how M$ will respond?
Port GNU applications to windows and let people get comfortable at home before they make the Linux Journey.
Free. Nasty. M$ style warfare.
...he will be upgrading to 320 GB hard drives now that his Apache logs have filled up drives C-Z!
ah, it's so much nicer to be able to actualy *download* something, rather then trying to 'stream' it, and then not being able to watch it again. Quicktime files can usualy be dug out of the cache, but still.
.zip file. I still find it very strange that quicktime files can be further compressed with pkzip, but whatever. (Or maybe they just did it so it wouldn't automaticaly be played in the browsers of the not-so-smart...)
The weird part is that it's as a

so I'm reading about how we're trying to save and advance Linux.
and I see the article from Telestra..
and I reload (cause of a link I followed) and I have a Microsoft ad at the top of the page.

They probably want it to wind up on P2P, forcing people to download it uncourages that.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.
Maybe if I could use it to do other things like buy music for it like I can on CDs. They even say you can! But wait! Can you find any? I doubt it. Can't find a player either (unless the MP3 player does it too). You wanna use it as a tiny CD-RW? Cool! So would I, it's small (and rules compared to Click! drives (or Zip Pocket as they're known now)) and holds alot. But wait! You can't get a drive. You could use the MP3 player as one but, should I have to buy a $400 MP3 player if all I want is something to backup a few files to? How 'bout a PCMCIA type 3 card that could read them and such? Nope. Despite all the drives that they have promised, nothing is really going on. The only thing that's new is it's no longer vaporware, it's just unwanted.
Once again, we see a good technology that could have done great just a few years ago, but they just took too long. This is what hapened to 3Dfx (my opnion, let's not get off topic), BitBoys (the ultimate in vapor), and many other things. Excessive delays can seriously hurt you in the market. How many of you are enjoying you're Segway HTs right now? That's what I though. They should be careful too.
FINE PRINT: This is all my opinion, blah blah blah.

He said that telstra's annual IT expenses account for a third of the total expenses; and because of this the new CIO/CTO is cutting back radically on IT expenses... that means no new software development... therefore he is developing the expense system himself!

Many years ago, Microsoft bought "Network Courier"(an up and comming dos-based mailplatform - eventually to become known as "Microsoft Mail" and then Microsoft Exchange) I remember presenting a conferance where I told the story along the lines of that Telstra (Then known as Telecom) was the Biggest Micro$oft Mail user in the world.
As a result of them being the biggest, MS built a version of MSMail just for Telstra - as a result Telstra is STILL one of the largest users.

None of the QT porn my friends view on their G4's is stuffed. Are you asking about download viewing or download file transfers?
If the goal is viewing, then there is no compression via stuffit, etc. Streaming is used and works fine (130 per sec for my friends).
If the goal is file transfer, and it just happens to be a QT file, then it is same as for Linux (talking about OS X, not 9.x)...tarred or stuffed or gz'd, it helps to keep the file intact, me thinks. I use OS X, and can't recall the last time I had to unstuff a QT movie.

Dell gave him a 12g drive rather than the standard 2gb drive - needless to say, the PC had 6 partitions, and my friend didn't have a clue what to do with them.
Besides, having 24 hard drives has to be good for something.... the server seemed to survive the slashdotting.... for now *evil laughter*

ATTENTION:SIR/MADAM
I am MR. ROB MALDA, the Director of Operations SLASHDOT.ORG. Here at VA SOFTWARE.
Our site is a "news" blog of questionable repute with years of outstanding crapflooding by the trolls of America.
I have resolved to contact you through this medium based on business proposal that will be of mutual benefit to both of us. I got your particulars through a consultant company base on my research for a trustworthy and established person that understands moderation ethic for entering into a life time profitable joint partnership moderation and also co-operation with confidence and trust that you will keep the contents secret and not divulged to any third party.
To be explicit and straight to the point. Some time early 1997, a reputable client of ours posted a comment on our company's website for safe keeping. And since then our client has failed to come forward to claim his comment, which has accumulated a considerable amount of points in karma.
Consequently, in our bide to contact this client to redeem the karma which his comment had accumulated we discovered that our client was the former president of the Open Source Development Network, who died of AIDS after he was de-throwed in the same year the comment was entrusted into our care.
Since the death of our client President Hemos, none of his benefactors has come forward to claim the comment with us, which means that non of his relatives or aids had any knowledge of this comment. Hence out of curiosity I decided to secretly read the two comments that our client posted on our website. And to my surprise I discovered that the two comments that were posted by our client actually contained a considerable amount of points in Slashdot karma amounting to about 40 million karma. Since this development I have been nursing plans secretly. I also found out from enquiries and the foreign media that our late client siphoned a lot of karma from his account while he was in office as head of moderation.
It is my conviction that the comment on our website was part of the karma that our client siphoned and now that he is dead there is no race to this karma in our care.
I am now soliciting your noble assistance to assist me in transferring this karma to your account for immediate +1 posting with your assistance. I have also decided that you will generously be entitled to 30% of the total amount. Upon my receipt of your reply confirming your willingness to assist me of this transaction, I will immediately arrange and transfer all the rights of ownership of this karma to your account to facilitate your easy clearance and transfer of the complete karma to your account.
you have nothing to worry about, as I will be there to assist you in anyway necessary with all proper documentation. This transaction is 100% risk free. Please maintain absolute confidentiality on this matter.
Please reply to the above email address with your telephone and fax so can call you.
Thanks.
Yours faithfully.

Why? Because it's going to be millions of dollars that gets distributed back to the Australian economy either in the form of lower pricing of Telstra's products or as profits to shareholders (and as the government is still a 51% shareholder that means all of us).
The next point is that once a few more CEOs see that you can screw Microsoft in this manner, they're going to try it for themselves. At least some (and more as time goes on and Linux apps continue to improve) are going to decide that the Linux option is viable regardless of what deals MS offers, and the others will save a packet. Net result? Less money floating across the Pacific to the money vault in Redmond and more in local customers and shareholders' pockets, and a growing Linux user community who will spend money and use their buying power to get the features they want.
Now, if only Telstra could be levered out of their monopoly or quasi-monopoly positions, then we'd *really* be in good shape :)

Although I haven't seen it around lately, there's this application called Streambox that lets you save any streaming file to disk. I think the program itself is illegal, but it's possible to find it if you look around. I highly reccomend it.
That was what I meant. They want it on P2P. I realize my pretty braindead typo of "uncourages" might have given you the wrong idea.

I hope he has a good power supply and a lot of cooling fans! He's going to need them!
I had a friend that got a deal on some small-capacity scsi drives and bought 6 with the intent of installing them on one computer. I suggested that he should mount every other one upside down - otherwise when he turned the computer, the momentum of all the drives simultanously spinning would would cause and equal/opposite reaction, causing his computer to spin in the opposite direction on his desk.
I guess that kind of geeky humor is unavoidable when you get a whole mess of satellite attitude control system geeks.

In ~six weeks, after Ballmer leaves, I hope to see another story telling how Telstra plans to continue with its Linux plans.
A price break from MS is nothing more than the pusher handing out a freebie. They'll get more than it's worth later by keeping them hooked now.

"...The bank is now deploying a system called Citrix, which turns desktop computers into so-called "dumb" terminals - a move that will save the company money on software."
I am not sure if its possible to save money with citrix. The software costs too much and does too little. It was cool a few years ago, but the CALs were a killer. I hate CALs! I hate CALs! I hate CALs! Ok, I just had to get that off my chest.
Well a few years ago, microsoft came by to visit the citrix household. After dinner, microsoft asked citrix to bend over and well.... We all know what happens when microsoft asks you to bend over.

More /. half truths...
The Ballmer visit has been planned for quite a few months, and coincides with an event in Asia. Whenever a senior exec like Steve Ballmer or Bill Gates travel, they always meet with a few top customers. It's just a convenient coincidence that one of their top customers happens to need some extra attention at the time Steve is here, so it all worked out nicely.

So, let's see, Microsoft sues Telstra. Not only does Telstra decide to go non-MS in the future, it starts promoting non-MS alternatives through its extensive ISP business (for instance designing its pages to work best with Mozilla/NS rather than IE, having their installation install NS by default, start streaming content in non-MS formats and thus preventing the usual Linux lockout, and so on), the publicity that such a trial would produce would surely encourage other businesses to look for alternatives to a company that sues its best customers.
That's not to mention what a hostile federal government could do to MS's business here if it so chose.

Judging from the Australian government's performance lately, I seriously doubt there's much that they would do. Not only is the budget in deficit, but policiy-wise Howard (Aust. prime minister) is doing anything he can to please the US above and beyond reason. Like offering military troops and equipment we don't even have for the war on Iraq. Like supporting and copying the recent US decisions against various international treaties (Kyoto, ICC, Johannesburg). All because Howard thinks Australia will get a free trade deal with the US out of it, something certain middle east states like Jordan get readily. Hint: it hasn't happened yet and isn't going to in the near future.
So I think that if Bush Jr. picks up the phone to Howard and asks him to bend over for Microsoft, he'll kiss the ground even faster than he can unzip his pants.
Boo! Come on ChemDudes, give us something more reasonable than the most restrictive possible format.
But let's assume the rest of Telstra is sold. To obtain a controlling stake in a public company, Microsoft, as a foriegn-owned company, would have to obtain permission from a government body called the Foriegn Investment Review Board. 99.9% of the time such approval is given, but every so often the government knocks back some politically contentious ones (for instance, they knocked back Shell's attempt to buy the rest of a major gas project because it was widely argued that Shell may choose to promote other projects in Indonesia and elsewhere over the Australian one).
Given one of the major arguments advanced by the government for not splitting Telstra up into seperate companies has been that it is one of a very few Australian companies big enough to be a major player in a global market, the idea of approving a foriegn takeover of it seems unlikely.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo

I find it surprising that many here would consider it a loss if Microsoft were to cut a reduced price deal for Telstra.
Hey, the software was released to the public, to be used for whatever purpose benefited them. That's what the GPL is for.
And, using it as a leverage to negotiate better prices with M$ is as legitimate a use as any other I can think of!
Don't assume the narrow-minded view that Linux only "wins" when it's the only thing in use. Free software was provided for free with the assumption that it might do you some good, and that it's up to you to determine what good it'd be.
If this Aussie company uses the software to negotiate better terms with MS, more power to 'em!
Either way, Linux continues to grow and improve, and "Billie boy" continues to require changes of underwear.

Hi,
I'm sure you're getting a lot of mail from Slashdot readers. I'm sure a large majority of it is Linux evangelism.
Please bear with me. I'd like to share some facts about running a file server like yours on Linux that you may find interesting.
First, I'll start with a few big reasons you may be interested:
That means you can have more than 24 hard disks. Linux drives are usually mapped onto the global filesystem (unless you use LVM to combine several hard disks).
For example, if you didn't use LVM to combine your drives, you could choose one disk for /home (personal settings and documents), one disk for /usr (most software), one disk for /var (miscellaneous program data files), a bunch of disks--one per directory (like "drive01", "drive02")--under a network file-serving directory, and one more disk for everything else not covered (the root directory).
The rest of this comment is available at this link. Appearantly my comment wasn't good enough for the lameness filter. "Reason: Please use fewer 'junk' characters." View the original comment as it was entered in the form here and tell me if there seems to be too many junk characters. (I tried changing '--' to '&emdash;', hoping that would help get past the lameness filter. '&emdash;' doesn't work anyway, apparently.)
Curious that a P120 should withstand /. so well.
Anyone ever heard of this web server before?

60 years of age, which leaves 116 million to do the work. People under 20
years of age total 75 million, which leaves 41 million to do the work.
There are 22 million who are employed by the government, which leaves
19 million to do the work. Four million are in the Armed Services, which
leaves 15 million to do the work. Deduct 14,800,000, the number in the state
and city offices, leaving 200,000 to do the work. There are 188,000 in
hospitals, insane asylums, etc., so that leaves 12,000 to do the work.
Now it may interest you to know that there are 11,998 people in jail,
so that leaves just 2 people to carry the load. That is you and me, and
brother, I'm getting tired of doing everything myself!
