This happened to me after the 2.6.18 upgrade, on two machines. First time an abnormal shutdown (of which there have been plenty) has required xfs_repair at all.
I also had to compile xfsprogs from source because Debian Sta(b)le is too fucking old to fix it, but it was mostly alright.
It's just the same thing explained another way.. but my version inherently accounts for the difference between things that we're unable to falsify, and things that cannot be falsified. One can only falsify what is real within one's own reality. That which is beyond real cannot. Even if both are true.

Because it attempts to explain our reality - existence as we exist in and perceive it. Deities and the supernatural in general are by definition outside our reality, therefore not science. Even if god(s) exist, that they can mess with our reality is still an abnormality; science deals only with the natural.. uh, nature of our reality. Interference from higher powers may be fact, but it cannot be predicted (or better still, practically exploited), thus irrelevant, scienficially.
Understanding gravity, for example, allows us to navigate probes around our solar system, orbit and/or land them intact on other planets/moons/asteroids. "God did it" may be perfectly true, but it is still not a position of knowledge and understanding, it simply gets us hit in the head with fruit.
Until the world gets over its anti-nuclear paranoia, energy is still a major issue. Recycling is cheaper than desal, and probably cheaper still if not treated to drinking standards.
Irrigation should use recycled water.. and they can probably treat and use the solids as fertiliser too (current fertilisers are made from oil too, right?). Save desal for potable water, neatly avoiding the whole cringe factor issue of drinking recycled water. Given that irrigation is 74% of use, then it should be a while before the desal issue comes up again anyway.
The trouble is the need for a parallel set of pipes to carry non-potable water...
I'm surprised that they haven't disabled the print-screen functionality in some way so that it's not possible to do this.
They probably don't have to, really. Next-gen PCs will either have hardware accelerated HD playback, and/or hardware accelerated multi-layered GUIs in which the video plays in a protected layer. End result: screenshots work, but the part where the video is supposed to be is black. And of course if you have neither of these, you get to join the poor saps without HDCP/whatever enabled monitors: downgraded playback.
Crazy bitch didn't get her way, so now she's sucking her thumb and stamping her feet.
Yesterday, the Australian Communications and Media Authority found that because Channel 10 did not broadcast the footage of the incident on TV, the television codes did not apply.
This incident was never broadcast on Channel 10, and even if it had been broadcast it wouldn't have breached the MA 15+ classification as indicated by the fact that a number of other media organisations aired it."
you can't ask them to go buy a 360 music player and a 360 digital camera, and a 360...NO!
1) Microsoft missed the boat on that shit already. 2) Microsoft likely don't care, so long as your boats dock at their port. 3) The last thing Microsoft needs is for Apple to succeed with their digital hub thing. Giving up the peripheral market they never had to competitors in order to maintain their control of the 'hub' is probably A-OK. 4) Peripherals are more competitive and diverse than whatever you plug them into anyway. I doubt Microsoft really want that kind of stress. 5) Mind/marketshare matters more at this point than total control, and if people know the 360 works with everything, they'll be more likely to buy one. Once they get people hooked on their goodies, it's much easier to fuck them over. People are more likely to buy the next XBox than some other thing if they already have one.
Rasmussen is working on a number of AJAX applications that provide a rich desktop-like interface to the end-user from within the Web browser.
Netscape had the exact same idea a decade ago (sans trendy development tools of course). "We're going to make the operating system obsolete" they said. And we all know what Microsoft thought about that, and what happened to Netscape as a result.
I would think that the majority of a home user's disk contains either data from original media, or static personal data. Very little will be continually changing, only added to. Basically, its a 500GB cache.
When you make your pics and videos, you burn them to DVDs, store them properly, and keep the data on your HDD. You don't have to back them up over and over.
Everything is energy. The thing is, you need to be able to get the energy out of it quickly and easily. As far as releases of energy go, you don't get much faster and easier than a bomb.
The copyright gestapo also use the for-profit counterfeiters as an excuse to nail teenagers to the wall for swapping songs for free, with shit like "piracy funds terrorism."
These guys do. I'm told Westpac do as well. I asked St George and they thanked me for my email, said they do not currently have plans for hardware tokens, but would look into it. Mmkay.
But... these tokens don't stop a man in the middle attack if the user isn't paying attention to the SSL certificate.
Eh, SCSI2 is fucking slow. Current model IDE drives would spank it.
My Celeron 300A@450 w/ 256M runs quite nicely. Boot time is under a minute, logged into the domain and idle at the desktop. It does run a modern IDE drive though.
I'd suspect drivers more than the drives though. 15 minutes is just woeful. Booting from flash would be quicker.
OK, so why is "20 year old COBOL code" out on the Internet? And if it's not on the Internet, why do you need security updates at all? You can keep your crusty old GIGO box chugging away in the corner, without touching it and without relying on mostly unpaid volunteers to support your "20 year old COBOL" platform.
So, the question is, if Debian are involved in a Debian-based Enterprise distribution, will they get off their high horse about Debian Sta(b)le, and get a more reasonable (for most people) release schedule?
As far as I can tell, anyone that wants Enterprise Linux uses Red Hat, not Debian. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but it doesn't appear Debian's major user base are businesses. And even if they were, is it really such a chore to upgrade every 12 months, when it's Free? Why have Debian taken it upon themselves to be the platform for hardcore companies that can't afford to upgrade, evar, even though most companies seem to think Red Hat == Linux?
Demoing it for what? So Carmack can show everyone how leet he is? Quote article:
It used to be all about selling the engine, and now even that seems fated to despair as the Unreal 3 engine is winning awards and accolades for its ease of use, and is dominating the press as far as who's using it for their next-gen titles.

Much ado about nothing.
That's pretty much what the summary quoted: "more appropriate for alternative transportation than for automobiles."

Unless you mount /home, /tmp and other user writable areas with noexec, you can do the same thing on Unix as you can on Windows.
Viruses are a relic of the sneakernet. We're in the Internet age now, infecting executables has to be the least effective method of propogation.
Worms and trojans are how it's done these days, and they don't need special privileges to operate.
So.. what are Win32 users who don't want to "install" it supposed to do these days? There used to be ZIP versions that could be opened and run.
For testing and.. eh, stealth "installations" (ie. work computers) zips are better than exe/xpi.
