Errrr - yeah, you can run VxVM and VCS if you like but they do have their own LVM and Clustering (MC-Serviceguard or whatever they're calling it these days.)
Last I heard, they were using rebadged Veritas stuff. i.e., they call it their own fs and lvm, but it's just VxVM and VxFS.
If they stop producing HP-UX and port a lot of the code they have in it to Linux, they get the best of all worlds - fancy stuff for their fancy servers, and fancy stuff for their mass-market servers and workstations.
Except that all the fancy stuff is written by Veritas - the filesystem, the VM, the cluster, etc. HP-UX is just a moldy old SysV codebase. It's still ksh88 for pity's sake.
HP has thrown/pissed away more good code - DEC, Alpha, Tru64, Tandem, etc. - than most companies have developed.
Is it just me, or does everything in the US start with secret allegations that are insane, completely disproven before they're even made public, and yet still acted upon fiercly only to suffer humilation in the end?
Plus RAID-0 ain't all it's cracked up to be. I had a Dell XPS600 with RAID 0 and one of the drives went kaput. Guess what happens to all the other drives then ? They're useless.
RAID-0 is exactly what it's cracked up to be. It just may not have been what you're looking for.
I think the idea is a bunch of people offer bounties for something worthwhile. So, if someone else wanted GTK, maybe they would offer $50, and then someone else $100, someone else $10, and so on, so the bounty grows.
How about a bounty to have GNOME put to sleep? I'll chip in $10...
Every military satellite launched, not just by the US but by *anyone* can be tracked. Even gpredict has keps for US military stuff. You can track it, you can often see it with the naked eye, and you certainly can receive signals from them. Decoding the signals is harder
"Harder" like "cracking RSA on your home PC" hard:-)
I was playing Civilization the other day, doing an earth simulation and I was playing as Japan. One of my first strategies was to research Astronomy so that I could build Galleons and go colonize the Americas before anyone else could. Having colonized all of the islands in southern Asia (and Australia) it was just obvious what I had to do next. Clearly the early south Asians were thinking along the exact same lines.
"We must research Astronomy so we can build galleons and colonize the Americas!"
"Shut up, Oggthog, and stop drinking the fermented rice. We're almost out of Woolly Mammoth Burger and it's almost time for Volcano Appeasement Day."
"(grumble, grumble)...one day we'll harvest steam to power great engines and link our centers of distribution..."
You could make a plausible argument for Java - there are far more people with phones than computers. Indeed, SMS is the most widely used application in the world.
Or if you want to go by transactions, then it's unquestionably COBOL.
Germany - China worked just fine, too. This whole story is just FUD.
Uh, no it's not. It's not Fear, it's not Uncertainty, and it's not Doubt. It's not designed to scare people away from a viable product. It's wrong and it's a dumb SlashDot story, but not everything that is dumb is FUD.
It is legal to send mail over 13 ounces without a return address but you have to hand-deliver it to a post office box and your face will typically be caught on camera. That's to prevent bombs and the like, not contraband information.
Well, that's the excuse. The reality is that it's to ensure full employment for thousands of members of the Letter Carriers' union. If it's illegal to send packages anywhere except at the post office, then you have to have people manning the windows...
A caution on white gold: Many white gold items are rhodium-plated with a thin electroplated layer that will wear off, exposing the yellowish-grey alloy beneath.
Very true. The jeweller I bought my finacee's ring at offers a lifetime cleaning service that fixes that problem, and they're national in case we ever move. Not trying to whore for them...though they are pretty well known.
Shane Company has a nice online interface for engagement ring design (you can get a rough idea of what different combinations of the Cs would cost): http://www.shaneco.com.
By my calculations, it ceases to be "reasonable doubt" and veers off into "complete mathematical certainty" when they use phrases like "Reiser's chilling confession," and "led authorities to [the body]".
I've always thought that if you allocute, we should electrocute...
(Spare me the stories of innocents released even though they confessed. My rule would also improve the gene pool. If you're dumb enough to confess to a murder...)
Slashdot Mirror
Why is Cray Supercomputing is a loosing strategy?
I guess that depends what it's setting loose. OTOH, some have speculated it's a losing strategy.
So they want to develop a cross-platform browser.
If they want to build a cross-platform browser, then they should write it in Javascript. Then the cross-platform browser can run inside any browser ;-)

Shoot people who admit openly that they want to cut the education budget
Ladies and gentlemen, further proof that not all the peoples of the world are ready for self-government...
One day those in prison will get out
A very neat summation of the problem.

50cm is like half a meter.
It's precisely half a meter.
I guess C still wins.

I recall hearing that airborne pollutants from China were found in Lake Superior in the 1980s.

Cyclists use the road by right, motorists use it by license.
Thanks for pointing that out. That's something we need to fix by requiring cyclists to have a license.

Of course, your ideas completely the ability of families, etc. to have any justice.
Being incarcerated in America, especially California, is usually a death sentence no matter what you were convicted of.
Plus, all prison sentences also come with a special side order of sodomy. "Worst part of the deal and the judge doesn't even mention it!"

And...not any more a problem than Amsterdam is...

...is to become a multi-millionaire so you can purchase favors from elected officials. The rest is just smoke and mirrors.
