1.4.x is rife with issues; corefiles or memory leaks (StringBuffer ToString anyone?). I sure hope that this is a stability improvement release rather than another round of 'improvements'.
It won;t be long before some enterprising young geek with access to a few Linux boxes starts tunneling his P2P traffic thru his firewall to some other location on the internet that will then proxy his P2P traffic. Net result is that ISP won;t know about said P2P traffic - ergo they can't do anything about it....
Most people in the rest of Canada would probably argue that Toronto is not really a part of Canada anymore. The only thing making Toronto vaguely Canadian is the fact that they happen to be on the Canadian side of the border, and thats where the similarities end.
Instead of stating the complexities he was not considering, he would simply say in a somewhat comical tone 'because god wants it to be that way'. I found it to be an interesting way of limiting the scope of variables in any particular discussion. Keep in mind this was a HS level Physics class. Good ol' Earl Robertson, aka Uncle Earl - MMCGI '88.:)
In my experience all vendors, big or small, 'oversell' themselves. Remember, all salesmen are liars, have no souls and will all burn in eternal hellfire... They will try to spin you a yarn to try and differentiate their products where there really are no differences. I would say that if you regularly see 900Kbytes/s and have uptime in excess of 99.99%/year, that you are doing well with your T-1 line (not considering the cost of your line).
The Sword of Elendil is reforged at Rivendell before the fellowships departs; 'The Sword of Elendil was forged anew by Elven smiths...' (Book Two, Chapter III, FOTR).
When the Fellowship leaves Rivendell, Aragorn has the sword Anduril; 'Aragorn had Anduril, but no other weapon...' (Book Two, Chapter III, FOTR).
So are you saying that in FOTR: The Movie, that Anduril has not yet been reforged? It clearly has in the book, which was my original point.
Am I the only one who thinks they could have spent 2 more minutes talking about the 'Sword Of Elendil'? They show the sword in the preface cutting the hand of Sauron, and then they show Boromir doing his 'Still Sharp(e)' shtick. I think a quick scene with Elrond presenting the re-forged sword 'Anduril' to Aragorn would have been a worthy plot addition ('The sword that was broken goes to war'). To me, its part of the 'Aragorn claims his birthright' story within the story.
I probably upgrade OpenSSH more than any other service on my systems. How in the fsck am I supposed to keep up with this in a production environment? What does the frequency of bug release indicate about the 'thorough' coding practices over at the OpenBSD group? I'm not trolling - just asking what I consider to be legitimate questions.
Linux on the Ipaq rocks, except for one major thing; without ubiquitous wireless internet, its just a feature-rich Palm Pilot. When you can get wireless network access in the same fashion as cell phone access, the value of Unix-based pda's will take off. cell-modems are fine I guess, but I have yet to come across a well-intergrated package. I am usually stuck with specific cell phone, modem cards and cables to provision my wireless access, nevermind the per-minute fees I pay to my cell provider.
I've found that operationally, my ability to move between Tru64, Soalris, AIX, HP-UX is relatively seamless. My biggest hurdles have come when doing hardware troubleshooting, upgrades and maintenance. Each vendor has their own unique approach to device names, hardware settings and architectures, which I've found to be the most difficult to master when moving between unixes.
I wonder what has become of Lockheed Martin's "Linear Aerospike" engine technology. When X-33 went down the tubes, LA engine tests continued. The results looked somewhat promising.
Ditto. RM6 stands for Raid Mangler 6 in our parts. I have about 10 A1000 and 30 D1000 in production and I'll take the simplicity of the D1000 jbod configs over Raid Mangler.
The fistfight to come to the 15c conclusion must have been a doozy...
Right. The Java Hotspot compiler has no issues, except for the nasty corefiles from things like;
while (true)
{
blah blah
}
The hotspot workaround was to run in -client mode or change your code to say;
boolean done=false
while (!true)
{
blah blah
}

They stop insisting on the absolutely fucking retarded GNU/Linux moniker. Give it a rest.
LX50 runs a sun version of Linux, hence the 'LX'.
Maybe you should read the specs on the LX50?
Idaho? No, u da ho...
Saw it last night!!!!

its 'peddle', not 'pedal'

How long till some guy with unlimted funds builds a battlebot out of one of these...

I've known a few Scotsmen (and women), and they have a certain affinity for strong drink if you know what I mean. :)
