  1. Re:And with that 1Gbps on All Korea To Have 1Gbps Broadband By 2012? · · Score: 1

    ...and their email attachments will be high def porn!

  2. Re:Further evidence... on Red Hat Set To Surpass Sun In Market Capitalization · · Score: 2, Insightful

    With the current way Sun does business hardware wise it cannot compete with Dell directly. Sun sells higher end hardware and Dell sells lower end servers very cheap. You can buy two Dell servers loaded with the same memory and SCSI drives instead of SATA drives, with 3 years support for what a single Sun server would cost you. I have several JBoss clusters and I just throw Dell PE1950s at them. If one crators, the rest of the cluster just hums along. Sun competes with HP, IBM, and the like. They DO NOT compete with Dell. Although, Dell can definitely compete (and steal market share) from Sun. Especially now with the current state of economy and everyone being so cost conscious.

  3. Leave them where they belong on How Do You Manage Your SD Card Library? · · Score: 1

    My camera has one and it stays in the camera. My Blackberry has one and it stays in my Blackberry, and all other devices are the same way. The closes thing I have to a problem is when I upgrade to a larger card for say my Blackberry. Then it's just like kids clothes. A hand-me-down occurs, and the smallest one gets tossed into a small container of old SD cards. Those usually just sit and do nothing unless I find someone who needs one.

  4. Thats like saying... on Why Mirroring Is Not a Backup Solution · · Score: 1

    Why Mirroring Is Not a Backup Solution. ...is like saying: Why a two door coup isn't a long haul transport vehicle.

    While the two door coup will do the job in some respects, you're not going to keep you job using it. Just like using RAID as a backup won't allow you to keep your job.

  5. Rules of investing on Chrome Complicates Mozilla/Google Love-In · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If you looking at a company you might want to invest in, always look at where their income comes from. If most of it comes from a single location, that is a DAMN risky investment.

    If a majority of Mozilla's incoming comes from Google, then Mozilla isn't financially sound. They should have started looking for other revenue streams long ago.

  6. Expensive but on SoHo NAS With Good Network Throughput? · · Score: 1

    Use a SAN and you just zone the storage to the server that needs it when they need it. No transfering of GBs of data required. :)

  7. Off topic, but on Google Native Client Puts x86 On the Web · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Is anyone else having issues with Google and Gmail lately? (specifically partnerpage.google.com)

    It's been slow and sometimes not working at all over the last two days.

  8. Yes, but! on Google To Sell Truly Open Android Dev Phone · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Yes, but will the phone companies actually allow you to use it? Or will they say "No, it's a security risk to our network!"?

  9. Re:its about the dominant os on Apple Quietly Recommends Antivirus Software For Macs · · Score: 1

    Wrong. There are OSX virus out there. Also to note, just because Apple has 10% (I would have to check that number) doesn't mean it will have 10% of all viruses. With a 90% to 10% ratio of use, the higher use OS will have an order of magnitude more viruses. Most virus writers want to attack as many people as possible and there for will devote their effort to the platform that will effect the most computers.

  10. Only to brainless idiots on Apple Quietly Recommends Antivirus Software For Macs · · Score: 1

    Reader wild_berry points out the BBC's story on the unexpected recommendation.

    Only to brainless idiots that actually believed the hyperbole feed to them by Apple would it actually be an unexpected recommendation. The "we are secure and Windows is not" garbage was just a marketing ploy. Anyone with a brain would have known that any Networked Operating System has some level of vulnerability and is likely to be exposed at some point.

  11. Yes you can, but! on IT Job Without a Degree? · · Score: 1

    Yes, but uou MUST have A LOT of experience in what the company is looking for. Don't think you're going to leave high school and after two years grab a Direct of Infrastructure job. I am a Director of Infrastructure. I have a GED, but I also have 10 years experience at building infrastructures. I started at the very bottom. I was Tech Support for three different companies. (two ISPs and a major Anti-Virus company) Then I became an Computer Operator for a medium size company that was still computing with early 80 era technologies. They allowed me some leeway since they felt I knew how to do a lot of things and for two years I revamped most of their infrastucture. Then we built a new building and they hired a design engineer and he and I worked together designing the new buildings entire infrastucture. That was my foot in the door. I moved to New York and now I've built infrastuctures for several different companies and am not doing it again for a online trading firm.

  12. A dream come true! on LHC Repair To Cost At Least $21 Million · · Score: 2, Funny

    Enjoy your last few months outside of an event horizon.

    It's been my life long dream to experience an Event Horizon. The only shame is I won't be able to contemplate such a great experience afterwards. ;)

  14. Re:ERROR CODE: ID10T on Charity Refuses Donation Because of D&D Connection · · Score: 1

    No the idiot portion is refusing to accept a donation that helps starving children because of a stupid game. Jason who doesn't have anything to eat will not eat today because D&D money (which has nothing to do with anti-christianism)is unacceptable.

    I repeat. ID10T ERROR. Whoever rejected it is a fucking idiot.

  15. ERROR CODE: ID10T on Charity Refuses Donation Because of D&D Connection · · Score: -1, Flamebait

  16. I like the original idea on EA Forum Ban Will Now Mean EA Game Ban · · Score: 1

    They should tie it to slashdot too. That way, once your an asshole I never had to see you again!

  17. T-Mobile in NYC on T-Mobile G1 Faster Than iPhone 3G · · Score: 3, Informative

    I've been with T-Mobile since they were Voice Stream back in 2000 when I was living in Dallas. In Dallas they were great, but I've been in NYC since early 2005 and their service sucks in this area. Most of the time my Internet access doesn't work at all.

  18. MajorMUD on MUDs Turn 30 Years Old · · Score: 1

    MajorMUD ran on WorldGroup BBS systems. It was great until MetroBBS bought it and started screwing it up. I've played a lot of MUDs and I found it was by far the best and was quite polished compared to many others.

    With email on your phone so common, why would you even want SMS and all it's limitations and cost?

    Python IS a real language and a damn good one for what is possible with it. Some tools have weaknesses and threaded programming is one for Python.

    I think we would prefer your advice without the biased opinion attached.

    Double your memory until you reach 1GB of swap. Basically, if your swapping anywhere near a GB you're PC or server is severely memory starved and probably has the performance of a sleeping turtle.
