Although that get's rid of the actual torrent files they could theoretically just have Magnet URI's on the site. I wonder if they could get away with it.
The point is, if your buisness is not IT then why are your spending large sums of money doing it yourself?
In the early part of the 20th century many businesses ran their own Electric power stations. Then they got rid of them and got power from the grid. Why? Because for 99% of them Electricity is not their core buisness.
For companies outside of the IT industry IT is not THEIR buisness either.
Yes, because over the last 40 years or so NEVER has the government outsourced data center operations to 3rd party facilities run by.....like EDS, IBM, Perot Systems, Booze-Allen, SAIC...
And
Because currently contractors are completly trustworthy inside governent data centers and would never and could never pull a hard drive and walk out the door..
----- And if you did not get the above joke, just realize that "cloud" vendors are no different than any other contractor that has run fed data centers and servers in some offsite location and will have to abide by the same rules and regulations. Your Data is as safe as it's always been...
Capitalism is NOT dominant in the U.S. region. Creditism is. Nobody uses capital except people at the top of the food chain. Everybody below has to use credit to buy anything of substantial worth.
Sorry Hulu is primarily standard def or lower. I'll not lower myself to watch video at the lowest common denominator especially since shelling out $$$ for a nice Flat panel display.
Good question. And it's one (according to the article links) they are asking. Note that just because something has had hundreds of millions of years of evolution does not mean it's very good or could not be improved upon. Look at the Sinus cavity for example.
I'd actually like to see a chart with these types of performances going back a number of years. It would be interesting to see the difference between RH10 and the Latest Fedora release (assuming you could even get RH 10 to run on modern hardware without backporting drivers). Same wit FreeBSD.
"Hidden in hardened silos designed to withstand the massive blast and electromagnetic pulses of a nuclear explosion, these missiles would launch first and then radio down coded orders to whatever Soviet weapons had survived the first strike."
Now I'm NOT saying that a first strike doctrine in nuclear warfare is a viable war strategy but lets be serious here. I SERIOUSLY doubt the soviets could hide ANYTHING that could withstand a direct nuclear strike by anybody. Even NORAD could be reduced to vapor with a couple of very high yield or a barrage of ICBM nukes on the mountain.
Is it just me or do we get all sorts of stories about this or that breakthrough but I have yet to see ANY of this stuff make it to wide use (or even in specialized cases). What good is all this research if none of it ever gets engineered into something we can use.
Don't get me wrong. I LOVE science and research but I look up in the sky and see that big freaking nuclear fusion ball hanging there and wonder why we can't seem to get enough energy from it.
yea...why stop. We could also just say "President OBAMA's trusted Federal CIO Vivek Kundra former office staffed with people he worked close with are being prosecuted....."
guilt by association is sometimes true and sometimes not but those who do so without OTHER evidence to back it up are sleezy
People who are shaking at the knees about google and the federal government obviously are not aware that the government has been outsourcing data processing to offsite contractors for decades.
Sheesh. Google is no different than ANY other contractor when it comes to the Federal government and has to abide by the same contracting rules as everybody else.
Does this mean that it's any SAFER than at EDS, Booze Allen, Perot Systems, HP, IBM, etc? No. But it's not any less either.

My prior response was a half-truth humor remark. I agree though. The problem is that email is REALLY easy. Anything that replaces it has to be just as easy.
I went to a sporting event (sportscar race) in Central Florida. There was not even 3G and my phone was basically dead weight (except for apps I can use that don't use the network). Of course 50K people were at the event and maybe that had something to to do with it (duh) but damn, there was a Cell Tower within 1 mile of the race track! Maybe it was Verizon who owned the tower but I could not understand why AT&T did'nt roll out some portable cell towers prior to the event.
Not completely true. Some shapers use traffic analysis based on the timing, size of packets and overall analysis of what a particular client is doing. For instance if I see your computer connecting to 200 or 300 different locations in my firewall/router at said Evil(tm) ISP at pretty much at the same time (this is simplistic I know) I might be able to see a pattern that says "Ah HA! P2P torrent!" and throttle traffic.
It's not perfect and to be sure that type of traffic shaping will get stuff you don't want but most people are surfing the web and would not notice if their web browser session was throttled from say 20Mb/s down to 5 for a period of time (especially if the latency remains within the range it would of been at the higher bandwidth).

Yes...but did your boobs get bigger :)
Curious as to why I was rated Troll.....
We are not talking about "Capital" we are talking about "Capitalism".
Not the same

I think Fried Phish would of been better.

Um..19 years of continuous use. So for all practical purposes probably 3 time that or more in normal use.
Um...the coding of C64 software was ALL ABOUT using peek and poke in unintended ways!
Don't need a virus, just a badly written BASIC program with nested goto and gosub lines...
10 Print "I love Line numbers!"
20 Goto 10

Having the C64 Basic interpreter as a programming environment on the iphone would strategically hurt Apple in horrible way....
Riiiiight

I've come to the conclusion that if you want people to change in an organization you have to TAKE AWAY the methods they did it before.
