RAID 5 is n-1, therefore there is one parity written for every write, and all drives write for every disk write activity. If you want speed, you don't use RAID 5; RAID 10 or RAID 1 are much better for performance.
Perhaps if you are looking for a electric car to race on a track (not the stated purpose of the ROADster) than you should plan something in to quickly swap the batteries out?
Lets cooperate on it. Have China build the orbital manufacturing, the US can build the moon and asteroid mining complexes, the ESA can coordinate the orbital construction. How hard would it be to have those two countries and ESA do all that? It is well within their ability to do it. If we have all of them cooperate on building a launch loop (doable with current tech, unlike space elevator which requires materials we can't even make), it would make it near enough to free to put stuff into orbit. While this is all going on, have Bigelo and the other corps build their orbital hotels and increase space tourism. We can do it, we just need to cooperate to get it done.
The only reason Social Security has issues is because the politicians won't keep their hands out of the pot. That huge pot of money is just too tempting for them to ignore.
What technology do you think we lack? If we build manufacturing in orbit, mining on the moon and asteroids, then build the ship in orbit, we could most definitely make it to Mars, and survive the harsh environment just fine.
Build a moon base with manufacturing facilities Build mining facilities in the asteroid belt Build orbital assembly Build a ship large enough to make the Mars journey
The time it took Columbus to reach the Americas is approximately the same amount of time it would take to fly to Mars, if we send missions ahead, we could have all the needed supplies moved into Mars orbit well before anyone gets there. This is a solvable problem, and is entirely possible. Everyone who tried to deride putting men on Mars always seems to focus on launch for Earth. Why launch from Earth when everything you need is available on the Moon and the asteroid belt?
If you think about it as well, how long did it take Columbus to reach the Americas? How long is the trip to Mars? Columbus wasn't able to take on more food, or more water, the only things he had for free was heat and air, which is a solvable problem in space. Once we start building colonies on the moon, it is a small step to build a ship in orbit capable of the trip to Mars.
I also would like to add, the launch from Earth to space is a solved problem, a launch loop is perfectly doable with today's technology and would be able to launch items for a fraction of the cost of a conventional rocket launch.
That would be quite impressive. The amount of energy needed to move either of these bodies is currently out of our abilities, but in 50 years, who knows.
Funny thing is, the fed never performed maintenance on the federal roads, they just provided the money and the overall plan to the states. The states maintain their own portion of the interstate system anyways.
This comes down to the main difference between the Hummer and the HMMVW though, the HMMVW can drive pretty much anywhere, they are beasts. The Hummer is a commercial vehicle and nowhere near is well designed, they just kind of look like the military version.
I don't know about the free Android phones...looking at Verizon's site, there is one free Android phone (with contract of course) and it is a certified pre owned... AT&T has 3, all phones I've never even heard of.
My elementary school aged kids have no problem with Android. Also, if you are having issues with your Droid X like that, you are doing something wrong. You may want to reassess what programs you have installed as it is probably one of the service running programs doing that.
I read this story 2 hours before it was posted to Slashdot via Engadget. Not unlikely someone would know the story would be here, and that it would be negative.

Maryland was a "Catholic" state as well

I believe PA too (Dutch) but I am unsure on that one and don't particularly want to look it up.
Did they require a license for horse drawn carriage? If not, than requiring one for a horseless carriage is kinda odd isn't it?
I think I will get one of those Amish carts and have some fun :)
That would be an expensive RAID controller to dedicate a whole Xeon to acceleration.

Frankly, the article isn't about political borders, so why even have borders show on the map?
Seeing as how the US has always been the army that the UN uses, are you blind?
Mother Teresa won it in 1979 too. You may not agree with her religion, but what she did in her life was pretty amazing.
For storage you could even use a Linux box sharing out its disks through NFS. Much cheaper solution than iSCSI, and performs the same function.
Also, ESXi is free, Workstation is expensive.
In the US, the argument came down to: Did you get hard? Then you wanted it.

Hell, I'm employed and would gladly move to a moon colony. Do you think they need sys admins?

The best plan I have heard so far is this:
Build a moon base with manufacturing facilities
Build mining facilities in the asteroid belt
Build orbital assembly
Build a ship large enough to make the Mars journey

Of course not, according to the courts it is impossible for a woman to rape a man...
Please tell me you are joking about Obama. I don't like the guy, but there is no way he could really be that ignorant of the past.
Prison population would be my guess.
