I agree, dselect is simply scary at first. It's basicly a bunch of data compressed into a single terminal screen.
It took me less than four "tries" (with help-crying on #debian and so) to find out how it works, and once you master it, you don't remember why it was that hard.
Newbie unfriendly, but power at your fingertips for those who mastered it...
The aim in using Linux is to save millions so that the govt can relocate the OS budget for something else.
hehe, knowing our own gvt, there is 0 budget allocated for the entire plan. They'll just go out every morning and collect the money that fell from the sky.
It's not just the OS. If you buy a computer, you need an operating system with that. But then you'll also need some apps (think office-stuff, mail client,...). Add that together and I estimate (assuming 750EUR hardware) a price drop of about 10%
Curiously trying this patch on a 2.4.13 machine a while back, I found myself in the very unpleasant situation of having about 50% packet loss towards that host (lan where I have absolutely 0% loss regulary)
No-one can explain this, but two very identical setups, only differing by this patch...
I imagine those camera's record something, but not all the time (typically for security camera's).
So reundant images could be skipped.
Or perhaps you should run a good video compression codec over it, say mpeg.
Should be able to strip down the datapool down to at least a tenth...
I saw the same documentation, but I have a few corrections:
The program wasn't talking about experimental torpedoes in the russian ship. The britisch accident you refer to was caused by an experimental one. The suspected kursk-killer was a torpedo like used all in the russian navy. The british just backed off from this type of torpedoes, the russians used it widely.
The oxygen production is not entirely true, the main product, iirc, is heat, turning the formed water into steam, quite rapidly.
This caused the torpedo to crack open, releasing the oxygen., with the known consequences...
I think you are close, but still missed the point.
I myself had a failing DTLA-307045 so I did a lot of reseach.
The point is: the defective drives generate (even more) heat. Cooling them extra won't help.
My replacement part is much colder, despite I've put it inside my case and removed some airvents.
I recommend running the drive fitness tool (the nondestructive tests) regulary. In my experience, it can detect some problems early.
The ugly point is I have to reboot for this. Byebye uptime.
It appears some drives of those series are good, and a lot of batches are bad. I'd rather see ibm returning 100% troublefree drives and declare what went wrong...
I never lost any data (filed for rma just days afther the first bad noises), but yet it stinks!
It's quite simpel, nuclear fusion simply is the ultime energy source within our reach.
It will supply us with a next generation energy souce...
Making oil less needed...
Making oil companeys less profitable...
That's something the major power (politically and economically then, not electrical) does not like.
I bet, that once the supply of oil/gas really runs out, they will come up with fusion and a replacement portable fuel within seconds...
In belgium there is a quite wildely accepted form if this: Proton cards.
Actually, it's integrated in a chip on your universal-plastic card. (universal as long as you stick with services from a single bank)
I had the very logical toughts on cracking this, but I saw the security sheme, and it's pretty tough.
The chip has it's own processing power aboard (altough no electrical power, that's delivered by the cardreader) and works with an authorisation sheme based on not requiring the exchange of keys. Just results of mathematical, one-way modifications to a number the chip holds or something...
As a side note, it's limited to 5000Bef, (124EUR) per card.
But it's damn easy: enter card, marchant enters amaount, and you press "ok"
The only big cable provider in our country, telenet (www.telenet.be) has the following policies:
1) the users are obliged to use the proxy. How do they force that? By cutting of OUTgoing traffic to port 80. Instead of setting up transparant proxies...
2) you're not allowed to run servers. How do they force that? You guessed it: they block every incoming port below and included 1000. Services can't run on higher ports, of course
It's obvious I don't have this provider. I've got adsl, and whenever my provider does this, I "accuire" a login from another provider, and problem solved!
And most of them even mouse with their right hand...
(disclaimer: to mouse is a verb from now on, I'm left handed, and I know a statistical sufficient number of left handed people to make statements about it)
I think the easiest way would be to change the licence of sourceforge code to something less GPL, offer the free (beer) version (with source) to non-profit projects, and just licence the use of their code to profit orgs...
At windows 2000, all services have administrator rights and priorities, I don't know a way to lower those permissions. (and I don't want to, actually)
Try this if you need to get in a system: boot the disk as non-system (eg, with a bootdisk, or in another machine) and replace the screensaver executable with a copy of cmd.exe. Boot the targetted machine, and you have a nice rootshell coming up (just wait long enough)
I'm still working at a p200, and it's for crying out loud the fastest machine overhere.
Everything starting from p100 is welcome...

At our telecom and ATM provider, they simply use a (relative, it's still a shitload) small batteryfarm, and they keep one dieselgen permanently at 35C or something, so it starts withing 3 seconds.
This combination leasts long enough to launch the other generators...

My guess is that it costs them way more in bandwith.

A few slashdot-class uppercuts and your entire budget is flushed down the internet-pipe

What about laptops? PDA's? meters of utp cable?
problem inherit to slashdot moderation and stuff.. There is no ideal system, so take moderations with a grain of salt...
Moz 1.0 is going to be released on my birthday :)

Well, it's sheduled a few days in front, but it will delay
Yes, another (well, pretty lame) vote to get dri workin on savage4 chips, especially the /MX version for laptops.
(can't get DGA to work either, whatever I try)
the're very simple organisms without processes that must keep running to keep them alive...
If the temperature drops, so does their activity, no damage taken...

Is this a good thing?
Perhaps it will delay XP, but is the prosecutor ready to hunt M$ down?
And, more importantly: isn't this a move that could be called a procedure fault, enabeling MS to drop the outcome and ask for a full redo?
still, can't say but "yeah!"

I was looking all over for this - Yes, mozilla is faster (win98SE-p166NOMMX-64MBRAM) :)
:p
This option should have been enabled (grammar?) by default (eg, put in the startup folder)
Now I'm going to figure out how much mem it takes
