It's true... Virtualization will be a commodity as far as high end features such as high-availability and load balancing. With the number of solutions out there, there is a race to $0, especially since a lot of the lesser products such as VMWware Server (formerly GSX) are now free. If there is not a product in 5 years that provides out of box, easy to setup, high availability at no cost I will be surprised.
Was that a post from 2001 when maybe that could have saved Slashdot? Let's face it, this place has peaked. I've been here since the beginning and it's worse than ever. I think my biggest complaint is the advertisements that are thinly disguised as articles. Slashdot was too lazy to even do a good redesign. Maybe you should farm out the new moderation system too....
"According to a Washington Post poll, a majority (63%) of Americans 'said they found the daily anal cavity searches to be an acceptable way to investigate terrorism.' A slightly higher majority would not be bothered if the NSA collected samples from their anal cavity. Even though the program has received bi-partisan criticism from Congress, it appears that the public values security over privacy."
I don't want to start a holy war here, but what is the deal with you Vista fanatics? I've been sitting here at my freelance gig in front of a Windows Vista PC (Pentium 4/3000 w/64 bits of power) for about 20 minutes now while it attempts to copy a 17 Meg file from one folder on the hard drive to another folder. 20 minutes. At home, on my Pentium Pro 200 running NT 4, which by all standards should be a lot slower than Windows Vista, the same operation would take about 2 minutes. If that.
In addition, during this file transfer, Firefox will not work. And everything else has ground to a halt. Even Windows Media Player 11 is straining to keep up as I type this.
I won't bore you with the laundry list of other problems that I've encountered while working on various Vista PCs, but suffice it to say there have been many, not the least of which is I've never seen a Vista machine that has run faster than its XP counterpart, despite the translucent interface. My 486/66 with 8 megs of ram runs faster than this 3000 mhz machine at times. From a productivity standpoint, I don't get how people can claim that Vista is a superior operating system.
Vista addicts, flame me if you'd like, but I'd rather hear some intelligent reasons why anyone would choose to use Windows Vista over other faster, cheaper, more stable systems.
Yeah, first Apple is going to switch to Windows, then OS X will be open sourced! Good going Dvorak. I think he's just picking these out of a hat. God knows it'll get 500 posts here.
World of Warcraft teaches one thing very effectively: log on and play more World of Warcraft. Of course they REWARD you for playing longer! They WANT you to play longer! Some people out there will just have to have level 60. Normally they'd "play well" and get there fast, but in this case "play long" is what has to be done instead.
Bill Gates: Your Internet ad was brought to my attention, but I can't figure out what, if anything, Compuglobalhypermeganet does, so rather than risk competing with you, I've decided simply to buy you out.
Homer: I reluctantly accept your proposal!
Bill Gates: Well everyone always does. Buy 'em out, boys!
[Gates' lackeys trash the room.]
Homer: Hey, what the hell's going on!
Bill Gates: Oh, I didn't get rich by writing a lot of checks! [insane laughter]
I don't know about FC4 or x86_64, but I do have SMP working perfectly fine with iptables under Xen 3.0. By default iptables is not compiled in. You have to download the xen source and build it yourself. After it is included in the kernel, you should have no problems.
X10 was basically the reason I decided to do my best to block pop ups and etc. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have become that frustrated with popups/banners.
At this point, I am quite aware of Ruby on Rails. It is agile, the next big thing, etc. Could you possibly link a few more half brewed articles about AJAX, Ruby, and Rails? "Ruby's the next big thing!" "Ruby's hot!" Wow, really?! It certainly has more hype than anything else out there. I think if it was really that good, there would be less people hyped about it and more people actually using it. I've heard about 50000 people say it is the next perl. Of course, with perl6 highly late, who knows what will happen.
With all the nifty cool features of Office 12, I was wondering what OpenOffice was going to do to even it up. Let's face it: OpenOffice is pretty much tracking Office 2000. That's not really that bad. I can get all my work done with OpenOffice no problem. This web front end is a killer feature, especially as the new OpenOffice file format becomes more popular.
It's rather strange to load up an article which is talking about shutting down p2p with iPod nano ads all over the place. Now I don't know how to feel.
I find it outrageous that these countries not only violate federal law, but they also refuse to obey the causes in our constituition dealing with copyright!

Gentoo eh? You must have compiled your JDK wrong! Try setting ARRAY_OUT_OF_BOUNDS_EXCEPTION=false before you do the build.
REAL article with actual meat: http://jameskyton.wordpress.com/2006/12/29/beyond- windows-vista-fiji-and-vienna/
Don't you hate reading the whole thing and getting to the end and seeing SOURCE? I wish I could digg this article DOWN!
Hello Sir! What is this UNIX operations system you speak of!!! Is this able to be executed on my PC!!! I have Windows 2002.

Coming soon to a country near you:

This is the best article I've seen posted in years! I thought /. was on the decline, but clearly it is just reaching its stride.

I give this book an 8/10, meaning you can't live without a copy!
STOP POSTING ABOUT AJAX! STOP IT! BAD! BAD BAD!
Caps filter is great for keeping caps out of things.
All actions like these do is force development of next gen p2p like Mute Filesharing.

Couldn't have said it better myself! If I was out of work for 26 months, I would probably start to post nonsense as well.
