I thought Handbrake uses FFMPEG. Anyway, if Handbrake uses some VLC code then the Handbrake developers will probably continue to maintain that code without necessarily having to maintain VLC as a whole.
That's what's so galling about these cases; these companies are distributing unmodified BusyBox so complying with GPL shouldn't be that hard and it doesn't even require them to release any of their code. Yet they don't even bother to provide unmodified BusyBox source.
That's not how commercial software development works. If you find a bug in someone else's code that you can't fix, you work around it. Customers don't care whose fault it is, they just want the software to work and a workaround is usually the fastest and cheapest way to get things working.
Clear QAM has no conditional access, so either everyone would get HBO for free (oops) or anyone who wants HBO would have to rent a box anyway (oops). Clear QAM also doesn't support VOD, which is a cash cow for the cable companies.
The ioDrive/ioXtreme doesn't appear as a regular IDE or AHCI controller because that would significantly degrade its performance; most of Fusion-io's "special sauce" is in the driver.
No, to stay under a 70% average utilization you'd have to run at 100% for ~10 minutes and throttle yourself for ~5 minutes. However, doing this is actually worse than just letting Comcast handle the throttling automatically.
Once you have a DVD in your hands you can rent or resell it as much as you want (first sale doctrine). However, the studios refuse to sell DVDs directly to rental companies, and the studios get their wholesale distributors to sign contracts refusing to sell to rental companies. Then the rental companies have to buy DVDs at retail price at Wal-Mart, which increases their costs.
Yeah, while China is leading in LOLcat generation, those lazy Americans are just reconstructing entire cities in 3D... http://grail.cs.washington.edu/rome/
Classic DirecTV is not DVB compatible, although it looks like they are transitioning to DVB-S2. Also, the DirecTV smart cards are quite different than DVB CI cards.
Big corporations like Google benefit from network neutrality; that's why they are lobbying heavily about it. In fact, virtually all of the think tanks and pundits are funded by big business; the neutralists are funded by content providers and the anti-neutralists are funded by ISPs.
Slashdot Mirror
In that case, they deserve whatever happens. But realistically CSS isn't changing so that code may not need any maintenance.

You don't even need BitTorrent; you just register their IP address with a tracker and they get legal threats.

SATA does have its advantages, though: laptop support, bootability, hot-swap, cross-platform (no drivers needed), etc.

I just want to know why it never occurred to them before to implement these kind of simple rules before.
Because there are a bunch of companies selling DPI equipment, but very few selling simple bandwidth management.
This article is from January. Maybe it got throttled somewhere.
Yes, uTP is like Vegas but it actually works on Windows.

If different parts of the code are copyrighted by different contributors (like the Linux kernel) then any particular contributor cannot dual-license.

Doesn't even use much CPU time
It sounds like you haven't used Fusion io; when you saturate the card the driver uses an entire CPU core.
The $/GB of DRAM is misleading. Sure, 300 GB of RAM is cheap, but how much does the server cost that can hold it?
No, nobody would buy Pliant SSDs at 15x the price of STEC SSDs since Pliant only has 5x the IOPS.
With SAS there are basically two choices: LSI 1068 (with IT firmware for maximum performance) or the not-yet-released LSI 9210.
Reviews of enterprisey hardware are near-impossible to find, so you may be waiting a while.
There are two D-Link models that support IPv6. However, the standard for IPv6 home routers has not yet been finalized: http://tools.ietf.org/wg/v6ops/draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv6-cpe-router/
Two DIMMs are cheaper than three.

I thought the BIOS could just remap the rest of your RAM above 4GB, as shown in the article.
