Los Alamos to Use AMD's Opteron in Linux Clusters
nuke-alwin writes "eWeek is reporting that Los Alamos National Laboratory announced it will use more than 3,300 Opteron chips in two of its Linux clusters. According to the article 'The key to Opteron, as it tries to gain traction not only against Intel Corp.'s 64-bit Itanium chip but also its 32-bit Xeon offerings, is its ability to run both 32-bit and 64-bit applications equally well.'"

I used to revel in torturing people on the web. Everyone from forum administrators to weekend FPS warrior, their emotions were all wonderful sources of joy. I don't know what happened between then and now, why what used to cripple me with laughter and pride now evokes solemn guilt deep within me. Have I "grown up"? Has conscious finally gotten the better of me?
I have been trolling the Internet for as long as it was possible, since before the days of Mosaic, since my very first Tandy computer. I have been a million faces, identities, and personas. I have been both friend and enemy to a million different people.
Today, I stop trolling.
All fun and games in Utah.

Terr'ists just knocked out power on the East Coast and you geeks are talking about fucking CPUs!? GET SOME PRIORITIES!!!!!!
Also, who ate all the bugles?
This is off-topic...
But has anyone else noticed there are a ton less commments now that 20 million people have no electricity?

The GNAA is a small loose knit group of trolls whose sole purpose is to post retarded shit to various websites. Membership of the group is really irrelevant, but they do have guidelines, which are really just part of their elaborate "troll". Basically, you gotta be a nigger, gay, or both, blah blah. Post an fp for the group and your ub3r l33t, bs ,bs . ...
The cold hard facts about the GNAA
There's nothing gay or black about the GNAA. In fact, the GNAA doesnt have a single gay or black member at all, and most likely never will.

And at this point, Nws4Turds ebraces his heterosexuality, coming out of a "reverse closet" for a brief moment, exposing his inner self. He then feels the need to expound on this idea.

Truth: The GNAA leader 'PenisBird' has a prefrence for porn depicting under age individuals
Truth: All GNAA members are white

It is now official - Netcraft has confirmed: *BSD is dying
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered *BSD community when recently IDC confirmed that *BSD accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last [samag.com] in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin [amazingkreskin.com] to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for *BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 9350657f its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time FreeBSD developers Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: FreeBSD is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another t

I just got finished stretching your mother's labia over my head and down to my ears, sort of like a fishy skull cap.
I am a geek who works in a tech company. The last word I want to hear on /. is "traction". It's bad enough I have to hear it at work where people are paid to say that type of crap, but here??? Please don't subject me to that crap anymore.
The only type of traction I want to hear is about some big knobby tires kicking up the mud making my SUV's paint job unnoticable.
In Soviet Russia, Opterons cluster YOU!
I'd rather be a conservative nutjob than a liberal with no nuts and no job.
gfody - professional fuck monkey.
Every time I see your user account, I get this huge urge to flame the fuck out of you. I don't quite get why I find you so irritating, but I do.
Now pull you hand out of your sisters ass crack and get back to blowing your dog.
Love and hugz,
