> Hell, the only reason it works with things like MythTV without jumping through hoops is because computers have so much memory for cache in them these days.
Funny that MythTV only requires 256MB of ram..... That's very little for running the OS, backend services, Myth frontend & backend while leaving so much for cache as you say! Take a look at Myth's hardware requirements....
Memory
A MythTV host that is both a backend and a frontend and using software encoding with a single capture card should run adequately in 256MB of RAM. Additional RAM above 256MB will not necessarily increase performance, but may be useful if you are running multiple encoders.
And then rember back when TIVO came out (1999) 256MB of ram was not uncommon. The motherboard I used back in 1997 could take 512MB but as I recall I had 256MB.
You need to find another reason why MythTV works so well...(Unless you believe 1997 is "These Days"). By the way have you ever used MythTV to be such a critic?
Have either Americans or the world received their money's worth for that?
As a matter in fact they have. If you asked most Iraq citizens they would think so. Maybe not the one's you see on the left leaning media (That's more than likely what you watch) but most of them in general would.
If you want to help Americans with that money, either return it to the taxpayers or spend it on infrastructure/health care/whatever. I agree... if we did it your way there would be plenty of terrorist attacks in the US and we would need the health care.
The maintenance of a sufficient military to defend one's borders is prudent, but it's also prudent to refuse to use that force--especially offensively--except as a last resort. We did it you way when Hitler/Germany was taking over the world. We refused to help until we got attacked. I don't believe we should jump in on everything but we can't let Saddam kill hundreds of thousands and leave him unchecked. I'm sure you would vote for Saddam if he ran for U.S. president.
So, in short: I am pro-military, but I think we spend too much on it (maintain too great a force), and are too eager to use that force abroad. Bill Clinton thought this as well and cut about half of our military in his 8 years (I was one of them). You probably attacked Bush and said he didn't send enough troops over to Iraq like most left leaners. Makes sense to me: cut back our military but then complain when we don't send enough troops over. During the first Desert Storm we sent over twice as many troops but then again that was before the Clinton cutbacks. I should know as I was over there!
If it was such a waste why don't you invite Saddam over for dinner. When he cuts off hand for grabbing the rolls when he was & then feeds it to your dog..... I will in alaughable mood myself. You want laughable here it is . Maybe the 3 of you can a have a good dinner...You deserve it!
Or at Kerry's testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee where he said every soldier in Vietnam (including himself) was a child & woman killer & worse. If you watch the fair & balanced news you would save seen that and know Kerry's service record is nothing to brag about. You can be against the war if you want but don't attack the soldiers who are doing there jobs. Kerry should have stayed home and been a tree hugging hippy as that was how he acted! Here is a link to his comments: The Article Kerry is a bad choice for any war regardless of what he says!

Flywheel UPS
·
· Score: 1
Stanby power generators usually have adjustable Jacket Water Heaters and will start and be ready for full load within 10 seconds per the requirments of NFPA. A flywheel solution is the best because if the flywheel is spinning, you know you have power protection. With batteies, one cell can be bad and your entire system could possible not work. Flywheel backup only lasts for a sort period of time, but if your generator won't start within 10 second, it's not going to... so your S.O.L. I quess you should have bought better equipment like Caterpillar and you generator would have started!
Now I'm not saying the movie sucked or anything, but I'd exspect to see more of his "powers". How they left it off would be great if it was a comic book and you can get the next book soon enough or if it was a tv series and you just need to wait until next week. If that was the case, they it would have been A+, one of the best shows this year. Since I need to wait years (assuming a "part 2" ever comes out) to continue the story, it left something to be desired. Heck, it's the same way the X-men did it. Iw ish I could see part 2 the next day or after a piss break, but since it'll be years, I'll loose interest in it. Heck, if the little boy shot him and it didn't hurt him, that would have been cool (to see a little more of how powerful he was). A little more to tide us over for the years of wait!
But what I did like the best about it, as you pointed out is it's not typical. Explosions, gunshots, and car chases don't make a movie great.
I lived in miami for a while. If you want to hear spanish, go there. More people speak spanish there then speak english. Maybe they can utter some "technolgy" words for you. And that's the bottom line because stone cold said so.
Who cares about saving the purchase price with Linux. So buying NT Server (OUCH!!) may only cost 3% more, It's about having to look at a blue screen a few times a month on NT that cost's you. Your IT staff will see that blue so much, they'll start dreaming about it. Then they'll have a massive coronary the next morning at 3 AM when they get a phone call, go in and see their favorite color, BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death) Blue. When you need to replace most of your staff, that's where the TCO goes up, much more than 3%. So go ahead and shun that, peter
or type :xx where xx is the line number. Also hit g to see what line your on. Of course you mean type the line number than gg. Besides vi doesn't use half your system resources (maybe on a 486 with 1MB of ram it would) just to edit a few files.
That's alright, because I much rather use vim (even in MICR#%%^'s world) instead of their editor, and as such the software was created with vim, not Borland. It's not like I compiled anything (except for work) with anything other than gcc in the last year or so. Keith

Last month they added weather, traffic, and movie schedules, and you didn't have to download anything, no configuration, it just works.
MythTV had a weather module before TIVO. To bad it wasn't Patented first so TIVO could get sued. TIVO's current inovation is copying others idea.
