No, 1080i is 1080 action lines of resolution with only half of them being sent to the display at once, the TV's line doubler will then de-interlace the signal and dispaly a full 1920x1080 lines of resolution on the TV simultaneously (I can't think of any 1080i capable TV's that don't do it, mine built in 2000 does doubling and it only will support 1080i & 480p no 720p).
The way you are thinking would be that as soon as I play an interlaced video on my computer, the display resolution is automatically halfed which is not the case. The resolution stays the same, the number of lines that are showing active content is half at any one point in time, but it changes so quickly that you (in theory) can't see the difference.
I'm sorry but you are just plain wrong... it seems that you aren't thinking past 7 years ago and or political sound bites.
A classical democrat believes that the rights of the group is more important than the individual i.e.: Gun control: believes that the individual right to bear arms is less important than protecting society from the dangerous gun owners Affirmative action: believes that minorities as a group start so far behind that they need to be given benefits based solely on minority statis rather than by their individual achievements political correctness/hate crimes: believe that certain speech and actions against an individual act at a nationwide group/race level Taxation distribution: believe that the government can more efficiently dole out benefits at a national group level, being able to shift money from state to state and manage projects there Wealth redistribution: believe that the government will effectively redistribute money from the wealthier group and give to the poorer group increasing the overall national economy Business: believes that the government should be actively involved in regulating the business, to protect the group of consumers
A classical republican believes that the rights of the individual is more important than the group: Gun control: believes that the individual's rights to bear arms is more important that penalizing all gun owners for the actions of a few individuals Affirmative action: believes that people are all individuals and each person should be looked at individually political correctness/hate crimes: believe that peoples actions against an individual are actions against an individual not a group and existing laws are sufficient Taxation distribution: believe that taxation benefits should occur less at a national group level and more at a state/regional level where state/regional isuess can be more effectively identified and managed since they are closer to it Wealth redistribution: believes that the Business: believes that the government should have a hands-off approach in that individual consumers will be the determining factor in how a business is ran
You'll kind of see a trend as to where the two parties differences lies here and their actual historical laws back that up... group level vs individual level. This would be the reason why you are incorrect and the reason why I think you don't have a memory > 7 years ago, the current President isn't acting like a classical anything. He has a good mix of both going on.
Additionally, your statement "living your personal life" is a *moral* issue regarding abortion, gay rights, etc. and is not part of any classical political affiliation. Only very recently has these moral issues crept into party lines. Since it is a moral issue, it's very much an individual there are the gay republicans and there are the anti-abortion democrats and a bazillion shades in between as to the definition: i.e. abortion is legal until the 1st week, 1st month, 1st trimester, 2nd trimester, abort while baby is half out of the body, a week-month after it's actual birth (yes I've talked with people who actually believe that, in the case of birth defects).
You are going to have downtime if the boxes just "goes down". Memory is not mirrored between esx servers as that would be *way* too slow for any normal activities over gig-e or even 10gig-e.
The way vmotion works is that it:
1) Locks all running memory for the guest (location A), and updates/changes goto a completely different place (location B) 2) Copies that locked chunk A of memory to the other system 3) Locks location B, creates another location for updates/changes 4) Repeat step 1-3 until the entire move of memory can be completed in one step 5) Freeze the guest system 6) Copy over the last chunk of memory to the second system 7) Release disk locks on source and acquire on second system 8) Tell scheduler to start running the guest vm 9) Issue a gratuitous arp to update network
If your box crashes hard, you will not have the original running processes in memory. If the DRS process notices that something bad happened but not catastrophic (the ESX server notices something going awry: lost all network connections, lost connections to the storage, box is starting to shutdown due to thermal, etc) it may be able to do the above. My expectation of DRS, is to automatically *restart* a guest VM on the same host or another in case it crashes without having to involve a person. Significantly reducing mean time to recover, but not giving me a guarantee 0 down time at all, if you want that, you will want to cluster the guests.
Do you think that it matters that it's unofficial support provided by Redhat employee's on the side to an audit company? Having dealt with auditors before I'm going to say no.
Not to be argumentative but that isn't an official fix from Redhat. It came from a group outside of Redhat who took up continued support for it (until they closed down last month), basically just like the intelliadmin for Win2K.
Your post tells me you didn't really even read it.
On the other hand, if there isn't, any half-assed geek could write one and distribute it for free. You mean a situation exactly like free one for Win2K that a geek wrote up and distributes for free? http://www.intelliadmin.com/blog/2007/01/unofficia l-windows-2000-daylight.html
Is there actually a patch from Redhat/Suse/etc for systems that are as old as Win2k available? This really is about getting one from the original vendor, there are a number of different free ones available for Win2k but they don't come from MS which tends to be the kicker for some highly touchy organizations (ones that tend to be audited quite often, etc). Regarding Linux, it's basically in the exact same position; only I don't believe that can get a fix for Redhat 7.2 from the vendor, I could download/write my own which would be the equivalent of installing one of the non-MS provided Win2k DST fixes.
If google now has the freedom of speech argument to reject an advertiser, I'm guessing that they now have the responsibility that comes with that speech. If one of the advertisers they allow does something wrong with their ads, it would now be much more difficult to argue common carrier, etc rights that they shouldn't be held legally responsible as well; since they approve/disapprove of the ads.
Umm if you are buying only one thing with out rebate and the $100 items says that it is 50% off and you get to the checkout and it's $0, it's pretty obvious that there was a mistake. In this case they offered a buy one get one special, there was no rebate there was no check in the mail to make the end cost $0. It was buy a boxed dvd set and you'll get one equal or lesser value. Can you make any resonably sane argument that in this specific case a person would really think that the actual cost for a buy one get one dvd set is $0.
Amazon made the offer that led to the free DVDs on their own. Amazon made a mistaken offer, and there was obviousness to it at all so it was an invalid contract. If you know about it ahead of time it's a "unilateral mistake" (go look it up), and courts kill contracts all the time because of it (and also do it if you don't know about it ahead of time).
Yes and there is a concept of a "unilateral mistake", where one party is mistaken about the terms, that allows a contract to be invalidated. It would be very difficult for anybody to step in front of a judge and say when I saw a price of $0.00 I had no notion at all that it was a mistake by Amazon. Do you really think that any argument would stand up for that. As for theft, because the individual getting a $0.00 obviously had to know something, if anything he might have some legal liability regarding fraud/theft.
Exagerate much? The article itself says that it can be done on $299 the enterprise version, which would be $49 more than your premium cost which is not that unreasonable for the additional features you get above and beyond premium (one can argue that the base price for all of them should be lower, but that's immaterial in this discussion). I'm not quite sure as to why someone would run Ultimate inside a VM, as most VM technology doesn't have any accelerated graphics at all (but VMWare workstation does have some unsupported direct rendering hooks that could be used)
You might want to look at Sarbanes Oxley laws and look at the similarity. You have to keep emails, access logs, etc for years and years for businesses, this is a smaller extension of that. Same with phone records, business transactions, etc.
I'm not quite sure you understand reality some ISP's delete customer login information hours after they are used, (which in reality may or may not be the truth as which information really gets destroyed diverges from the official company policy). It litterally takes days to weeks to months to track down a user to an originating IP who went through multiple servers in different countries, talking with different admins and end users who have a compromised box, working your way back to the source. The police don't have a movie style magic box, they can plugin that will tell them, hacker trying to break into bank , bounced through 10 different systems, 3 different countries but is actually sitting in Columbus, Ohio (of course as a proper nod to the movies, the hacker always knows they are onto him and disconnects right as the last line is being drawn to his house).
What I think it comes down to is there is such a wide varience to the rules, 8+ years ago when admined at an ISP we had conversations with FBI about retention policies: email, backup, authentication logs, etc. There statement to us was that we could do anything we wanted as long as the whole organization followed the same rules; if they would call up the secretary and she said that we never deleted backup tapes, and they call up the admin and he says they are deleted every days. That they would be flying in and getting all the equipment under court-order evidence protection (effectively putting us into a bind operationally having no equipment anymore).
Probably because at 480p it will still look better than any consumer-grade HD camcorder re-recording the content. Additionally he can than just rerun the 480p pristine content through a scaler and get 1080p on his HDTV setup. If you have thousands upon thousands to burn I suppose you could buy a pro camera and get better but it would seem rather crazy to do that and most likely still not look as good as the 480p original content going through a much cheaper scaler.
If you are going to do that, why don't you just record the down-rezed to 480p content coming out of it? That's the same resolution as today's dvd and will look a million times better than a camcorder on a tripod.
I'm not sure that why you say "we merely emulate the engine" you understand what you are saying. They use the same standard encryption chip, nobody in the ourside world has the schematics for the chip, the companies making the players don't have the schematics for the chip only how to send stuff to it and recieve data out of it, not what happens inside it. Do you really think that it going to be so easy to figure out how that chip works, that it's just mere emulation now? The private decryption key is on physical silicon in the chip, we are talking people with microscopes trying to look trace down and/or logic gates here to reverse engineer what it does. It's not theoretically impossible to emulate the chip, but it's pretty safe to say that it's pratically impossible.
but for a real work in a server, it's the most energy efficient, powerful architecture available.
I tend to disagree with that statement, for traditional java, oracle, web serving, etc server loads the Intel/AMD processor has consistently had better performance and with our Opterons is much more power efficient as well. We have found that on those operations the Intel/AMD processors have traditionally outperformed the Sparc proc by 2 to 3 times. The benefit that sparc traditionally have given you is bus speeds, being able to read in lots of data from disk, network, etc. that has diminoushed over the past years, really only leaving reliability as their main non-niche benefit. From a general computing system perspective in my experience the Intel/AMD is more powerful, more energy efficient, and much more cost effective.
As an example have found that for Oracle a single HPDL585 8corex32gb (4 socket) has 3x the performance of a Sun v1280 8x32gb, requiring 2x fewer Oracle licenses (only 75% per core so 6 rather than 8 for the SPAC), resulting in a significantly higher RTI (the 585 is about 2.5x less expensive than the v1280)
Probably because the article was talking about Windows rootkit detectors, might be a good reason that you didn't see ones for OSX (I could see through your thinly-veiled attempt at a windows vs mac dig, but I'll play along). For OSX you might try http://www.chkrootkit.org/ as there are OSX rootkits in the wild, they've had a version out for quite some time now.
If some dude came up to me asking where can they score some weed and I tell them Joe Blow down the street is their man an I guilty of a crime? NOPE!!!
I'm pretty sure that if 95% of the time all you did was sit on a corner telling people where to score some weed; that you'd probably be picked up as well. INAL but something like a charge of accessory before the fact, etc would probably apply very nicely to that situation, and very likely IsoHunt as well.
Wonder if this is more of a solution to improve the security of outlook rather than a nefarious plan to destroy html based email, the less you have to do the less of a concern there is (browsers need to support the latest, craziest cutting-edge stuff out there, emails probably don't need to)
Seriously, when was the last time you saw or heard of a Cisco iPhone?
About a month before Apple released their iPhone, was your head in a hole in the ground? The staggering number of bad jokes from tech writers about "how the iphone was released, then with a finger snap yell 'gotcha', it's by Cisco... hahaha" made computers crash around the world.
I think your numbers are just a *bit* exagerated there me bucko.
I can get a brand new dell XP-pro system with free upgrade to Vista business from Dell's small-business line of servers for $500. I don't know anybody's business, that isn't getting fleeced by people (which I guess like you are implying you do when they stay on Windows) who pay $300 annually per system to clean up their crap. Either their internal IT staff don't do their job/the outside support staff (your group) is milking them for cash or more likely your made up numbers are just out of wack and you are hoping nobody notices.
Umm... I think he was meaning more that if one GPL's something and charge for support, anybody can take it and redistribute it, and cut the original developer out of the equation if they so choose. Which becomes especially possible if a distribution such as Redhat, Suse, Ubuntu, etc picks it up as they can bundle support for a full suite of applications rather than just a single application and the original developer is left high and dry because he as a lone developer can't possibly compete against a support fleet like those vendors have, even as the writer of the software.

My understanding is that Vista Enterprise == Vista Business (even if it's not, according to this: http://news.yahoo.com/s/cmp/20070203/tc_cmp/197002 890&printer=1;_ylt=A9G_RxIUU8tFO.gAeRc4k4gC Vista Business is licensed for VM)
Vista Business is available on www.buy.com, others for a $299 purchase.
