I was doing 3D parametric modeling in RADAN like 8 years ago. It was so new at the time I was using it for about a month, then when we convinced the boss to get us some training I ended up teaching the trainer! However, I only used it for about a year before leaving the CAD game. The company next door were big AutoCAD people (NetWare too), and they were doing stuff in 3D with it.
Does the conversion to useful energy without any intermediate step of a fuel cell too. It's otherwise known as the petrol engine in my car. LPG
I didn't see any mention of efficiency in TFA, apart from it being "very efficient". I do however recall something about how much more efficient an internal combustion engine would be if made from ceramic, and allowed to run at much higher temperatures.
Yep centralised user management, great, no doubt. But, what happens when the LDAP service isn't available? I say service to not distinguish between a physical server, a cluster of servers, a crashed openLDAP process, broken network link, yadda, yadda, yadda.
With AD if a PDC isn't there, you can still login if you've logged on before. The article really should have mentioned nss_updatedb and pam_ccreds from PADL (I don't know if there are any other alternatives, nor do I know if that actually work, sounds like they do though).
While I'm not especially interested in network storage, and I know very little about SANs and AoE, I still thought I'd give my input.
1) The "server", or drive array, handles the RAID, and all space carving (LVM, EVMS). AoE tools then export block devices.
2) Yup, no argument there.
3) VMs can boot from AoE, unless you use RedHat in which case it's not stable.
4) Multipath ethernet (or bonding) can be done trivially at the kernel level on all connected devices. Both to double the throughput, or just increase the reliability.
This is perhaps a poor comparision, but AoE is somewhat akin to Linux, as a SAN is to MS Windows. AoE is a very important part, but a kernel is just a kernel. SAN is a whole system, complete with GUIs, and reports.
Will it kill iSCSI, who knows, I don't, but I don't care.
I don't know about other people, but my electric meter is still the old analog standby that rotates. Unless you have something newer digital model with a clock, how could they charge different rates?
Good question. I've always had the old analog rotating meter. Every once in a while someone would come out to read it, or more recently we can input the readings online (I still think they'll come out to check it, just a lot less often), and we've always been changed at different rates, for usage at different times. So, it can be done. It's just all by estimation. In the UK, at least. A while back we were being charged way too much, after moving into a new house, so we complained. Powergen got us to keep a record of the reading at roughly hourly intervals for a week. After that the bill dropped dramtically.
That choice actually makes some sense. Some people, as weird as it sounds, do actually like opera! The market for HD is small enough as it is, and if for whatever stupid reason you are only going to release 3 movies, make them from different marketable genres.
On a more serious note, depending on the level of validation a signed cert gets can assure you you are browsing the site of the company/person who bought the cert, that's it. At the most stringent level, that assurance can be quite high, as setting up valid business entities leaves a paper trails for investigators to follow that phishers don't want to leave. Differing levels of validation are no use if Joe Sixpack doesn't know though. So yes, you are correct, in what I'm sure will be more and more common situations, they mean squat.
So, this new fangled wireless card Intel have produced, 3945ABG. Are we Linux users going to get a driver for it?
An extra 30 minutes battery life, and a dual core CPU for multitasking, would both be quite beneficial for me, but without Linux wireless drivers (no ndiswrapper please) it's a no-go.
I suspect that even with Microsofts weight behind HD-DVD, if they don't ship the 360 with a HD-DVD drive, it will fail. History has shown that big add-on packs don't sell, so it's fair to assume that Microsoft will never be able to garner enough market share of HD-DVD capable 360s to make any difference to the market Sony will have of Blu-Ray players.
I don't think the service is totally useless, just pointlessly overkill with a stupid navigation system.
All we need are a few screenies of the install system, couple pointing out the features of any sort of package management, some more pointing out administrative features of note, and perhaps half a dozen detailing the main interface (which is likely to be an X desktop of some kind). 20 in total would be more than enough, with a navigation system that works.
As long as it's isolated enough from the kernel proper so that it would be *really* hard for the driver to crash the kernel, then for greater adoption in all areas, a stable binary interface is a Good Thing.
To me, the Mac Mini I bought was the reason I now know I really don't like OSX. Nice machine, shame about the OS. The dock, the cmd-tab/cmd-` nonsense, the way all windows of one app jump to the front if you close one, the way Mail is a heinous crime to email management and thunderbird not being much better, terminal.app is also truly horrible, linux X apps (via fink) were just far too slow, all pushed me to install linux on it. I've done that now, and am so much happier for it. The only thing that drags me back on occasion is the eyetv firewire dvb-t receiver. I could get used to the menu bar at the top, on occasion I could get used to the cmd-tab/cmd-` nonsense, but the dock drove me nuts. KDE is perfectly usable with just one mouse button too.
Overall, my experience is probably mostly personal preference. I just could not live with it, no matter how much I wanted too. Will I ever buy another Mac? Probably, it's very nice hardware (I'm waiting for a cheap-o last run ppc powerbook). Will I willfully use OSX again? Probably not (KDE, and Gentoo, make *my* life easy).

This is the reason 100gpbs isn't being considered for lan use. It just isn't feasible at this point.
Stick a thousand machines on each end, and you'll understand why 100Gbps is needed.
My god, that must be the dorkiest list in the world, ever.
Love it!
... mean for the system requirements of Windows 7?
... it's so obviously simple, we post links to their websites on /. bringing down their webservers.
Works just fine here as well, in Konqueror on Gentoo.
Likely to need mplayer, kmplayer and win32codecs.
It even work on a fully 64bit install (mplayer-bin), over ssh!
There is always DXF.
The last 6-7 years might have changed things though, and you'd still probably have to open and save all your existing documents.

... replace it.
As long as they test it properly after replacement, what's the problem?

Peter was too "cool" to be a scientist.
Raymond and Egon, spot on though.

Keeps me in a job, so I'm happy :)

was just pointing out that two engines in a FWD car would be pretty much useless, which is quite true.
:)
And taking a sly dig at Intel
... inside a chip is like having more than one engine under the hood of a car.
Except it's quite useless with front wheel drive.
... is smart. People are stupid, panicky, dangerous animals, and you know it.
In the UK at least.
$1999 -> £1132 + VAT -> £1330
So why do Apple want to charge £1429?
That's an extra $175 for nothing, around 8%.
Ripoff Britain strikes again.
My bad.

Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection

So, this new fangled wireless card Intel have produced, 3945ABG.
