This is scary as hell. When there is no risk of (negative public opinion) losing your boys while still killing theirs, there is no incentive to declare war only as a last resort.
I had to click the one that was my image (this was rather than a sign in button).
The image you choose is used by Countrywide (BofA) to provide you with the verification that you are not signing into a phishing site, not as part of your login credentials.
I ran into this same issue on a fresh XP install inside VirtualBox. Ignore it for a few hours; I performed regular tasks such as installing the multitude of updates, installed a few apps and noticed later on the process behaved as you would want/expect.
Don't get me started with these bad car analogies. I'm still pissed about moving the high beam switch from the floor to a stupid stick on the steering column.
I keep getting my left foot caught in the steering wheel switching to low beams.
If I recall correctly from my Marine Corps days, the high/low beam switch is mounted on the floor in a HMMWV. Not sure about the consumer models (Arnold Schwarzenegger type, not the refrigerator-on-wheels).
As a quick example off the top of my head, I'll take GNU's tar, cron (Solaris' doesn't even have */5 or @reboot), grep over Solaris' default equivalents. From my own experience, I don't find this "standardization" allowing much room for any kind of innovation.
Agreed. Solaris' cron is a bit of a hassle. But I edit cron as needed for projects. Not a HUGE impact on usability. It is Solaris at its core, so binary compatibility needs to stay in place for legacy support. However, OpenSolaris also comes with GNU binaries (which are conveniently already in the default path). To differentiate, they are called gtar, ggrep, etc (mind you, not every single GNU tool is in there).
The utilities don't even have the past decade of enhancements we've seen on BSDs and Linux, never mind Ubuntu.
At a loss of what you mean here. ZFS, brandz/zones and crossbow are huge; not sure what is specific to them that is significant over OS.
I'm a Solaris admin; which can make me a bit of a Sun snob, but this was not meant to be a OpenSolaris is superior to Linux comment. They both have their place for each individual (I have tried both options, and continue to bounce between the two today). In my opinion, the Linux community could take something away from the OS communities rules on packaging. Find a compromise. I may just give StormOS a try to get the best of both worlds.
I have been using OpenSolaris development builds for over about a year now(?).
One thing I thing the Linux community could take from OpenSolaris is its concentration on the approval and standardization of applications, so long as you stay on the OpenSolaris repositories. There is pretty much one tool for each job. That's it -- generally speaking of course. It is exactly why the Linux community shun it (cannot find binaries of specific software). When I use a Linux based OS, I feel the ADD in me kick in; too many options. I cannot imagine I am alone.
Anyhow, I think OpenSolaris is rock solid and a powerful option for people to try. It may not have all the bells/whistles of Ubuntu, but it aids me in getting my work done very efficiently.
FWIW, I purchased the Fluendo codec pack, which made a huge impact on usability -- I need my tunes while working. Well worth the money IMO.
Not sure why he states not to do that.
Granted, if the volume of traffic for a kindle goes way up beyond what Amazon and Sprint negotiated, there would be flags raised.
I'm sure there are some data usage catch-all's buried in the license agreement.
I can't help but wonder - is the kindle's data connection still available?
And if so, on what end is the code that limits the kindle to accessing wikipedia and amazon?
It should be; the data connection (sprint) doesn't use an account-name system. It's based on hardware. The hardware hasn't changed, so one can assume connectivity will work.
I would recommend an eSATA RAID enclosure, similar to this. Run the newly purchased SATA disks mirrored (RAID-1) in the enclosure. Power up, run backup, power down. Rinse/repeat.
Historically, developments in racing technology do come to consumer products. For example, semi-automatic transmission (paddle shifting) used in F1 is now common (either paddles or tip-tronic) in many production cars.
Depends on the specifics of the battery voltage, capacity and current limits as well as physical specifications of the motor. There is no direct 'X kW = Y HP' conversion.
Large organizations and especially the government would disable sudo sysadmin_command for users (so, no apt-get/aptitude/etc..); furthermore, patches are tested prior to deployment; which happens on a scheduled basis. We all know how dynamic IT project management is... They (IT) would have to work closely with a vendor, such as RedHat or Novell to manage patch rollouts.
Good bye quick and timely security updates.

Windows 7 does burn ISOs out of the box, just click on a.iso file and it will open a wizard. If you don't have Windows 7 there are pretty detailed instructions with links on the Ubuntu website at the download page, which I'm pretty sure you can reach with a single click at the top of their homepage. We're talking about Joe User, not Joe Illiteratemonkey, right?
If Joe is using Windows 7 in Beta/RC, he already knows what an ISO is...
For such a relatively small area, only so much redundancy can be expected. Fiber rings are alive and well but are for switch-switch connectivity; not for the end user points.
Granted, redundant communication systems should be in place for emergency services, but the answer is more to have alternative methods (backup) of communication.
There is no mention of it because of the damaged product name.
This is really the fault of hardware vendors. They sat on their ass during the Vista beta/rc period; when Vista ships, they have no driver support. They expected a Win2K to XP upgrade path (drivers are compatible).
The SR-71/A-12 project is simply amazing. This was the time of true innovation; these guys worked with titanium for the first time ever, designed a plane that goes over MACH-3 (much faster I believe) with tools like slide rule and a drafting board.
On the matter of speed: If the top-speed of the F-15 of about 2.5 MACH. MACH 3 aint that much faster (relitively speaking) and you don't hear about special fuels and pilots waiting for the jet to cool off after a flight so they can get out. MACH 5 sounds about right...
Satellites in a predictable orbit are much easier to shoot down than the Blackbird (it was done last by an F-15 in 1985). For that reason alone, I am sure the SR-71's that are 'mothballed' are far from retired.
I do get the sarcasm in your comment, but I'm going to reply anyway.
All standard practices were thrown out the window prior to the firing (demotion). By following true capatalism, GM would fold. So in this made up, pseudo capitalsocialist hybrid, rules can be made/broken on the fly.
is that Obama felt it necessary to continue the plan that started under the last administration. During an emergency it would be very unnerving for the plan to drastically change. My guess is the hope to restore general confidence overcame the desire to fix this bungle. Also at play is the "Wall Street insiders" who laid out the last plan and continue to work for the Treasury and Fed.
I'm not sure why people think there is a whole new administration since Obama came in. The very same people that envisioned, wrote and implemented the first bailout are still in the House (AKA Pelosi). Bush only caved after trying to hold out on signing the bill.
I am not defending Bush; he did a terrible job, but lets place blame where it does indeed belong.

As usual, my wife asked why I was laughing; always ends up with a puzzled/disgusted look on her face after I provide an explanation.

I propose all the people pushing Joe to use Linux sign a registry to be a public technical support contact (no, forums are not a substitute).
As a Solaris and Redhat sysadmin, I love all things *nix, but have to concede it is still not ready for prime time.
Difference is the President's BB is required to be used in a fashion to adhere to the Presidential Records Act.

A boot CD (Hirens or Windows) wont do you any good if there is no local administrator account on the system.

I missed the part where the President got the power to fire executives of private companies.
When the President, on behalf of the United States of America, became a major shareholder of said company.
