  1. Re:If real? on 14 Years Later, Cold Fusion Still Gets The Cold Shoulder · · Score: 1

    Well yes. The time circuit, or flux capacitor, and the hover capabilites of the car are both powered by Mr. Fusion. Old model's required primitive Plutonium or Lightning as a source of power, pfft.

    If it's anything like my flying car, probably good ol Mr. Fusion

    Linksys is Cisco now, so I guess the only difference would be the support contract.

    You sir, are an idiot.

    First you claim that there are other free, open source alternatives that access the same network.

    First you claim that there are other free, open source alternatives that access the same network.

    >You people are sheep.

    Then you have the nerve to insult people for not knowing this fact, without backing up any of your claims!

    > OK, as an examble, if you are a windows user, slide on over to http://www.gnucleus.com/Gnucleus/ And before people start flaming me, this program accesses a different file sharing network to Kazaa, which is probably a good thing. No royalties to Sharman. File sharing without self-inflicted spyware? Who would have thought?

    Then there is this tidbit, I mean seriously, what the fuck is this! What happened to "open source alternatives that access the same network.".

    Sheep indeed!

  6. Re:VMWare works on VMware ESX 2 vs. MS Virtual Server? · · Score: 1

    It works, and it's available now. I guess the most important question is when will this guy need it!?!?

    The Microsoft Virtual Server is in pre-beta, and we all know how long it takes Microsoft to release a product, let alone get to the SP1 phase where people are willing to remotely give it trust.

    This guy needs to look at his timeline, this question is like askin what should I get Unreal 2003 or Duke Nukem Forever.

  7. Re:I wouldn't consider a Microsoft Virtual Server on VMware ESX 2 vs. MS Virtual Server? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't remember Connectix having a Virtual Server Product. They did have Virtual PC, but that was mostly aimed at running on Mac's.

    I wonder how Microsoft will bastardize this one, Visio use to be nice before it became Microsoft Visio....

    Once again, just my $0.02

  11. Re:Clusters on Managing Linux and Virtual Machines? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Have you ever dealt with a cluster? Large clusters are fucking expensive to run 24x7x365. They require a lot of Air Conditioning (we spend over $1,000 a month on just AC, that's an expense that is never going away), electrical and a shitload of space.

    I know this is Slashdot, but a beowulf is not always the best choice!!!

    Yeah, cos configuring a FreeBSD kernel is so much easier than it is in Linux. I mean just cp GENERIC MYKERNEL then vi MYKERNEL for the next four hours, all the while looking up what everything means. Yeah, that's so much easier than pressing F2 on a make menuconfig.

    The point of SSL cert's was to verify that amazon.com is who they say it is, this isn't DNS's job.

    And if Amazon was incapable of securing their DNS servers, what makes you think when you put your CC into amazon.com that amazon is the only one that gets it.

    And amazon.com is most likely not running dynamic dns.

    That wasn't part of the deal! My point was that simply blocking ports is not good enough, not that blocking ports and ip's wasn't good enough. Either way my point still stands, there is very little additional security in simply blocking ports.
