I don't know whether you can read or not, but your post surely makes no sense: you're saying that you've read that google buys more hardware that they would otherwise need. Other than what? otherwise: Other than had they bought so-called reliable hardware. Now, my reading skills may be in doubt, but assuming that you read TFA your comprehension skills are in doubt as well.
Which is odd because it's one of the few laws which come packaged with a set of plain-English guidelines explaining what it's trying to achieve. That's because the brits don't speak plain-English.
I'd like to see the traffic patterns for their data centers. Our University has a daily and weekly pattern, no surprise there, but I wonder how much their traffic changes through the night. There is no 'night' and 'day' for a worldwide internet-based organization such as google. When you have night, someone else has day. Both of you use google.
At what point is skimping on hardware because the system is failure tolerant costlier than using more reliable hardware? Google is not skimping on hardware. They are simply not trusting hardware to be reliable. Actually, they are buying twice as much hardware as they would otherwise need, according to TFA. Er, not that I read it or anything, I swear,....
When will Google finally release a Linux SketchUp, or at least include its main modeling features into the Web version? Write to them and ask them. You cannot expect them to guess that Linux users exist if you don't contact them, can you?
While this might not really be the case at google, you really should write to Adobe (photoshop), Intuit (quicken) and other software houses to let them know that we want their products. I make it a point to write to one every week.
... that lets you interact with the globe, draw markers, add layers or integrate with Google Maps...
Aww crap! I thought they meant real markers!...
Anyone know how to get sharpie out of LCD?
Despite what the manual says, paint thinner cleans LCD monitors just fine. Make sure you put the thinner on the rag, not directly on the screen. Added advantage: the fucking glossy laptop screen is not so glossy anymore. It actually came out more uniform than I would have though had I known beforehand that it would be less glossy.
Are you not aware that Qt4 uses less resources than Qt3? KDE4 is therefore less resource intensive than KDE3 (Or at least will be when the KDE3 apps are rewritten for KDE4. Until then, both Qt3 and Qt4 must be loaded).
Considering that many of Intel's microchips are developed in Israel, I think that you are mistaken.
For those who don't know, Meron, Dothan, and Yonah are all Hebrew words, and the chips are so named because they are developed in large part in Israel. One of them in fact is _my_ name.
...but I've found that users tend to have issues with anything that long. Depending on what they use, some women will take something that long to get their fix. There are _two_ industries in which the customer is called a "user".
I use a 26 char password on a laptop that locks every 5 minutes.
Once you get used to it, it's not too annoying at all. I'm sure that a cellmate love affair would not be too annoying at all after you get used to it, but there are some pleasures that I just do not want to get used to.
How is this news?
How is this news? It's/. news because it means that you can bash Microsoft. Nevermind that the same method with Linux will let one erase the password file and thus log in as any user on Linux too.
That's right kids. Physical access to machine -> pwnd
That's cool - I just wondered why you mentioned the iPhone in particular - it stuck out a mile:) Good question. I guess it shows how ubiquitous the iPhone has become, where it's name has become synonymous with smartphone. In another thread I joke about owning an iPhone, but it is a joke about the inability of a plastic stylus to be detected on the screen, not about my ownership in particular.
Dude, your sarcasm detector is broken. A sure sign you've been flaming too long. Better dial it back, or you'll end up like twitter! I got flamed yesterday for making/.-esque sarcastic remarks on #space, so yeah, it's tuned way back now. I'll go finish studying for this damn calculus exam, finish it, and come back sarcastic.......................

Unless you were suggesting shopping for Media Access Control, in which case I apologize. No, he obviously meant this
