and virtualization being what it is, they could suffer an attack, log all the data, and swap in an HA clone in a matter of seconds. With appropriate monitoring it would be automated.
does ANYBODY believe that?
do you suppose that they suggest this to corporate customers?
I absolutely agree that incredible HUBRIS is being exhibited by those wishing to minimize the significance of this event. It is easy to accept that "engineering can accomplish anything", maybe not so easy to accept "human ignorance, error and cowardice can destroy anything".
But kids will always want some DS or PSP experience, and hardcore gamers will want advanced PC only games. XBox, Playstation, yeah, nothing looks interesting there.
"By now the reactors will all be cooling down, and there will be no more incidents"
Why is this statement any more believable than when it is applied to other types of failures? The incredible hubris of this statement makes me fear that more incidents are inevitable.
But the situation is different today. Universities need the income from products developed within their research facilities. Better it goes there than to some greedy capitalists, no? If it happens to save human lives, somehow no one should profit from it?
Sorry to hear your experience. I have been satisfied with Earthlink as an alternative to local cable RoadRunner/TimeWarner, same price, but the ISP I send my payment to is just contracted to Earthlink. Haven't had any problems for many years, I'm sure their billing is outsourced overseas. I feel a sense of security having them, they were a progressive company once upon a time, made a few bad investments, but they are still around. Yeah, dial-up is for the same people who were paying a monthy fee to "lease" their rotary phone from ATT after the breakup, but how would YOU handle it? Call all your customers and ask them why they are paying more than they have to?
Every time you open your wallet, it is a political act. Think about every transaction individually, with any prejudices you may rightfully have. No one situation will change the world, but cumulatively, an effect will be made. Just ask a marketing guy.
Like saying slavery is acceptable as long as the slaves are treated in an enlightened manner. Just a flaw in the constitution, which would take an amendment to correct, but it won't happen since the multibilliondollar arms industry will not let it happen.
Doubtful there would be an "on" switch. Nobody realistically expects to get a computer back, this just allows them to put a big sticker on the laptop saying, "if you steal it, it wont work". Thieves wont care.
Yes, that sounds reasonable. The criminal element has taken advantage of the Wikileaks chaos to hijack the Wikileaks name and use it to sabotage their enemies. Easy to make a misjudgement in this situation and they take advantage of this. Smart guys.
Foolish and arrogant to badmouth 4chan, or any other potentially damaging organization, especially if you have an online commodity you wish to protect. Gawker shows itself to be no more mature than 4chan when it does.

"how 'ya gonna keep 'em down on the Engineering farm?" um, lessee, uh, maybe by PAYING them?
I suspect at least some reluctance to "play god" in the past and to "anger the fundies" nowadays inhibits research in this area.
What is the point of disclosing ANYTHING to the public. Ignorant peasants would only get the wrong ideas. Better reserve secrets to maintain power.

Looks like an opportunity. Somebody should start offering FLAC MP3 and let the market decide. If the demand is there, his fortune is made.
Please don't assume that anyone favoring an investigation must have a political motivation. Some people are really concerned about rights violations.
You mean when I visit the La Brea Tar Pits, I am saying "the the tar tar pits" ? Damn foreign languages. So confusing.

Always question everyones motivation.

So by that logic, if cancer is cured, all it means is that the body will find some other way to die, so what's the point? Gotta start somewhere.
Does Sweden have a constitution which guarantees the right to keep and bear arms?

You're just lucky he didn't get one of those bobcats. THEN just imagine what a mess you would have been in. Didn't he like the DVD?
