The first time I saw someone do this at work, I thought "are you fucking retarded?" then I saw literally dozens of other people doing it. Mind blowing.
No problem asking: they were both business accounts. I was trying to keep a lot of the stuff in-house as I'm an admitted control-freak but decided to drop the DSL and do more on remote *nix boxes. The price is about the same and I get a full 100/100 Mbits on the remote ends.
Oh I should note that this was pretty basic load sharing (I won't grace it with the term "load balancing") not failover. A script would ping out through each interface and if one went down all traffic was rerouted out the other so failure of one link didn't botch things up.
I did this a couple of years ago with DSL and cable. My choice was to
use OpenBSD's
Equal-Cost Multipath Routing. I've seen other hardware devices that
accept two broadband connections but the OpenBSD option was much more
elegant and allowed some good granularity in traffic control (ie.: traffic
to my cable ISP's billing page may as well go through the cable
connection)
So how much did it cost per unserved household to get them broadband access? A whopping $349,234, or many multiples of household income, and significantly more than the cost of a home itself.
Why don't they just run a single line into the center of the trailer park and install a switch for distribution?
This is invariable caused by a malfunctioning app.
Blackberry programs run as (the unix equivalent) of the root user? I've had third party apps crash on my iPhone but never has one wedged up the system to the point of a power cycle.
RIM was cool back in the day when data was super-expensive. They came up with a then-innovative end-to-end service to cut data consumption to a trickle.
Those days are over, people want streaming video, full email, full browsers, etc. on their phones.
The Mentors were a joke band. In "the day" they had all sorts of picketing from various groups at shows. The lead guy has been dead for years (hit by a train) but the rest of the group still tours.
Donkey Kong always reminds me of that great Mentors song Donkey Dick:
Lyrics to Donkey Dick: I got a donkey dick, it'll make you sick I got a donkey dick, it's big and thick I got a donkey dick, it's a hell of a fact I got a donkey dick, it's where it's at
I've got a great big donkey dong It's over 15 inches long I've got a great big donkey prick So shut up bitch and suck my dick
I got a donkey dig, it's big and long and white I got a donkey dick, it packs a lot of might I got a donkey dick, it's fucked old bags I got a donkey dick, it's so long, it brags
I've got a great big donkey dong It's over 15 inches long I've got a great big donkey dong So shut up, bitch, and listen to the song
I got a donkey dick, it will pass your test I got a donkey dick, you will say it's the best I got a donkey dick, and I'm not a real goal I got a donkey dick, and it will really pack coal
I've got a great big donkey dong It's over 15 inches long I've got a great big donkey dick So shut up bitch and lick my prick
Donkey dick, donkey dick I got a donkey dick I got a donkey dick, it's a real fact I got a donkey dick, it's where it's at

They all post as Anonymous Coward, all the time. It's like a blindfolded sex party.
They should call their social site "The Glory Hole".
Hurray! With 64 bits, Firefox might be able to address all the memory it uses...
Firefox and the OS will still need ZFS' 128 bit filesystem for the swap space.
Apple does, though, claim BSD is relevant. Look at OSX for proof.
Holy moly!
I heard of this stuff in the past but never gave it much thought since. Just googled it and found lots of crap, but this video takes the cake.
Thanks!

Odd trivia: Radius was co-founded by Burrell Smith, one of the designers of the original Macintosh.

Ohh that sounds sweet (just did teh googlez on it) I don't think it had those features when I looked back when.
Convince your home ISPs to play BGP with you... Good luck! :)

I had a couple of lines in pf.conf as so:
then would force the network ranges/IPs contained through the appropriate interface.
I dumped the DSL about a year ago but this worked very well for me. YMMV. Mail me if you'd like more info/tips.
Do you enjoy the tactile feedback that your finger tips provide?

Apple doesn't require access to their code signing servers to run an app-in-progress on development devices or the simulator.
If this outage happened at Apple , it would have affected (only?) those uploading apps to the store.
Ah but my gmail account works with a copy and paste. Phew.
bah wtf. I use google for my mail etc but they want a google profile which isn't available for my domain yet.
:(
C'est la vie.
Slow down all, I have 9 now!
Thanks!
