Umm... no they don't. 1080i = 540 lines per second displayed on screen with a total of 1080 lines of resolution. 1080p = 1080 lines per second displayed on screen with a total of 1080 lines of resolution. To do 1080p you've got to send all the data at once since it's got to display all the data all the time, with 1080i you only have to send half of the data at one time, since it only display's half the screen's resolution.
True, they are displaying the pixels differently, they aren't turning on half of them (prior to line doubling) because they are only sending data to half of them at a time; because they aren't sending data to them they aren't using up the bandwidth. From a bandwidth perspective 1080i == 540p.
Right now most high-def OTA broadcasters are having problems even with 8 to 1 compression to keep it within a channel, increasing the compression to 16 to 1 to keep it within their channel limits is going to make it look like absolute crap.
You do realize that to properly patch any of the Suse/Redhat distros from their released CD bundle the download is much bigger than (sometimes 2-3 times) the 75mb one for SP2.
Not just XP, but *any* fresh install, 2-3 years ago when I went to a SAN's conference; the honeypot project measured how long it took for a Linux box to be rooted from first plugin to the net... 15min; much shorter than it takes to download the patches.
Face it, everybody's at risk, it's just plain foolish to plugin any (Win, Linux, Solaris, etc) unpatched system to the internet.

>Or how dissenting voices regarding the Iraq invasion were barely heard? They were heard all the time, they just didn't make any convincing arguments. There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't see "protestors" in a newspaper, etc. The only problem was they were saying "Bush=Hitler" and "Oil Grab", nobody was saying they didn't have WMD, didn't hear it from France, Germany, Arab states, etc. If the best statement a person could give was to call a person another name (and extreme at that) with no facts you WILL get ignored.
>Or how a Hollywood star is now the governor of California and a Republican. Because of the extreme failing by the Democratic parties group. That's like saying almost the whole US shifted to Dem after Nixon since a conservative didn't get voted in

I see desent all the time; maybe you ought to look at TV more as a device for those owners to make more money then as a public service. Every single one of them is there to make money, maybe in reality the public will spend more money on advertisers when they are told America is a piece of shit or maybe the public wants to just sit back and be entertained without a whole lot of cerebral work going on. So hop back to reality, TV is about money not about anything else.
>Or how F9/11 got dropped by Disney and was in "can't find a distributator" mode for a while? Again, and?

>Or how only a satiric comedy show (the Daily Show) can actually break and frame issues in a manner which isn't corporate media ass-kissing? Maybe because shows on TV really isn't there for the "good of the public" but to get a nice big check.
So you are also saying then that Suse, Redhat, Mandrake, etc also should be held to that stiff standard? So in your world would there also be a KKK version that says "South" and "Damn Yankee's"? I guess it also really needs to be done at a town level, since there are innumerable individuals towns that have border disputes. Even that is tricky, I guess that we need to make a different version for every single person in the world since in the same town there's going to be disputes between people. Boy I'd hate to be the package maintainer for the 6 million people of the world, constantly polling all of them and updating all the packages nightly.
Not sure how happy he'd really be, 'cause there'd also be no restriction on taking the old GPL code and putting it into someone's closed source app if they want.

The Bush administration did take Clinton's copy of the Patriot Act ease up on it a bit and it hasn't been struck down unconstitutional twice like Clinton's 1994 & 1996 "Antiterrorism Act" with all the lovely shiney secret courts, wiretaps, warrants, death penaly as the current one does only more so. So Bush is different he eased up a bit so it wasn't wholey ruled unconstitutional.
Initially playing dvd's on Linux was more of a "might work" then does work; it wasn't if it'd crash, it was when. The MPAA & dvd group were protecting their brand and image from potential harm caused by Linux.
Maybe you ought to look back in some short history, because you are really also saying this.
Because when they buy the dvd, they know they can't play them on Linux; so they shouldn't be allowed to try and get them to play on Linux.
I believe him completely all those files are legit

True, it doesn't matter until you also factor in number of shares. If the market value of your company is a billion, and you have a thousand shares then expect each share to range ~1mill, if they issued a billion shares then expect each share to be about $1/piece.
With the number of shares they are putting out they should really reduce the cost per share. According to the article, they have a possible market cap of 36.25 billion, Ford has a market cap of 26.93 billion. Now I'd find it pretty hard to swallow that the today value of the company is more than Ford, this isn't the dot com days. They need to either put out fewer shares at >$100, or reduce the price to have the company value something a bit more realistic.
Wonder how this will affect one of the major benefits of being able to go last: you know the pace of the people in front of you and where you are relative to them. This kind of nicks that completely (course it's not that much of an advantage when you got a guy on a cell phone calling in times)
That or they believe that the person doing it will do a horrible job and destroy the product (unfortunately it looks like George Lucas hasn't thought about this, during his new films).
Actually there are a number of them that do that. And what's to prevent me from running that program under windows? There are a number of ports OF ImageMagick, so it isn't specific to Linux. I'm not really much of a windows user, but I'm not a blinder wearing linux bigot either even though I run a bunch of linux systems.
But that's the whole point of Fedora, it's shiny new stuff that is *MEANT* to be a playground area. It's going to break, it's not for production systems, it's there as a community wide test lab that isn't quite an end distro and isn't quite beta either. Features that prove themselves out in Fedora get roled into the end redhat distro's so that the redhat production distro's are significantly less fragile on their first.0 release. So if you are looking for a finalized, production use kernel use the redhat enterprise line of dist, not the beta testish version.
Reason why they tend to be touchy about stuff like that is: if some librarian assistant doesn't follow said rule and it's posted publicly then the entire library opens itself up for legal lawsuits if even the lowest person doesn't follow them. If it's an official written policy you get held to it in court, but if it's only an unwritten rule then if someone breaks it the library itself can't be held liable.
Insert standard response about how some problems do not parallelize well and that a bunch of nodes in a cluster (no matter how many) wouldn't be able to crunch out the problem in any resonable time.
Word on the street is that they are possibly going to include non-cluster GFS for free in their enterprise line, but you'd pay a functionality add on price to layer the cluster capabilities on to it.
No he's talking about Sistina's "Global File System". Which not only is supposed to be a fast filesystem, but you can run as a clustered filesystem. Redhat recently purchased Sistina.
I also have lost data on reiser. When I dumped a file bigger than 2 gig to my samba share the system would lock up & the drives would spin to hell and back. After waiting a few hours I rebooted and the file was gone (that's resonable I rebooted), but what was really bad my freespace shrunk by a few gig and none of the reiser tools would bring that space back. 'course that was a while back, and reiser never has really touted itself as a large file filesystem.
