Try ZFS, which isn't available on Linux due to licensing, and you'll see why it's a loss. I read there's a hack to use it with FUSE but I won't entrust all our data to some shoehorning of ZFS into Linux just to say "We can do it too!"
We've used FreeNAS at home to feed our PopcornHour NMTs. The ZFS implementation works very well for what we use it for (6x750GB and 6x1.5TB drives in RAIDZ)
Now that 0.7 appears to be the last version based on FreeBSD that means ZFS will disappear with the migration to Linux. No, ZFS on FUSE is not an option; too many layers of abstraction for my liking.
Guess the next upgrade will be to native FreeBSD or OpenSolaris. ZFS is so damn great I'm using the filesystem to decide my next server OS.
Yep, that's what I'm intending on doing for my next server upgrade. I'm currently running FreeNAS, a FreeBSD-based NAS. Its ZFS is a bit stale but still works well.
Sadly, they're moving from a FreeBSD base to a Linux one in the future, so no native ZFS for me.:( ZFS on Fuse is so Rube Goldberg...
In any case, this will probably be my last iteration of FreeNAS, OpenSolaris to the rescue...
I have a jailbroken 3gs (typing this on it now).
Have bought some absolute shit apps off the app store, even at a buck they were overpriced.
Now I tend to try the cracked ones first. I'd I like them they get deleted and bought. Dungeon Defense, Pocket Universe, Doom Resurrection, etc.
Funny thing is most of the utils I use the most are only available on a jailbroken phone: unix shell and the like.
I'm likely in the minority of when as I really do "test drive" but I've been burned too many times at a buck or two already.
The iPhone is also enticing for developers because you only have to develop for AT&T's network and its restrictions.
Umm.. so no one develops for the millions of iPhone/iPod touch users outside the US and AT&T? Wonder how all this cool software got on mine as I live in Canada...
Slashdot is a news site. We don't need to be notified every time something exists for 10 years. Unless this "encrypting traffic" thing is new in OpenSSH v5.3
It's not new to OpenSSH but OpenBSD's default disabling of telnet (when everyone used it) and pushing OpenSSH helped make secure connections the standard.
If properly parallelized and you remove all the pointless Waits, a BIOS check should be damn-near close to immediate and still manage to check everything.
Ever run a server with RAID? Most RAID cards can stagger drive spin-up so as not to overtax the power supply. That in itself can take some time.
That's probably with hardware RAID, etc. loading up, right?
I don't get the endless fascination with boot times. How often does a person reboot? My desktop box at work has been up 22 days (power failure caused that.) Many servers for months and months.

I'm so fucking mad, I just dropped my bag of milk and it burst all over my fucking keyboard.
Will be writing my MP immediately.
so who cares?
Who cares? Who cares? I'll tell you who cares, all 9 Zune users, that's who cares!
insensitive clod...

bah yeah, and doomsday is what I meant. ty!
A decade?
Man, download jdoom, install the high-res textures, 3D models and new map packs!
It's a whole new game.
Oh that's a great point, I've forgotten about Nexenta.

No need to keep posting slashdot stories on Wikipedia's impending demise. Just follow this new user page on wikipedia.

I thought Genesis was done with some SGI gear.
He should be recommending free alternatives
Free alternatives to their current free alternatives...

Hope the gerbil doesn't attack it.

I'd have far fewer painful memories of getting wang-skin caught in them.

You have a computer that's not doing anything?
Weirdo!

Good one, thanks.
