  1. Can FUSE help? on Error-Proofing Data With Reed-Solomon Codes · · Score: 0

    It would be nice if it was a file system layer like encFS but for error-correction.

  2. Re:Can I be the first to say on Michigan Wins 2008 North American Solar Challenge · · Score: 0

    Go Blue!!!

  3. Re:So Let's Summarize... on Anti-Keylogging Recommendations? · · Score: 1

    Are you suggesting there may be more than one guy on here unable to get/keep a girlfriend?

    Seriously, one big reason to post on /. is if you have a question, other people may have the same question and be interested in the answer. I for one think protection from keylogging is very important and wish we were getting some more advice on this technical issue.

  4. Re:what's with physics? on Nvidia Physics Engine Almost Complete · · Score: 1

    Oblivion's engine is Havoc which runs on the CPU, so your graphics card doesn't matter in that case. You don't see more advanced physics in oblivion though... no trees falling down... no castles crumbling. Imagine if the whole world was destructible. You'd really be smiling then!

  5. Re:What about graphics? on Nvidia Physics Engine Almost Complete · · Score: 1

    Exactly, my GPU is really strained, but I have a core on my CPU sitting there idle... despite the CPU core being slower, it seems like a better trade-off to run physics on the otherwise idle core.

  6. Cleversafe sounds like a possible solution on Making Use of Terabytes of Unused Storage · · Score: 1

    http://www.cleversafe.org/ It's open source, dispersed storage, encrypted, redundant... seems like it's worth giving a try. I haven't used it personally but it had been around a while. The more machines using it, the better a solution it is from what I can tell. The windows support may be the big question... but the project seems worth keeping an eye on.
