Are you saying your "Conservatives" aren't really conservative?
My point was simply, that around here, the R's and D's are in goverment together, which makes it pretty funny to watch Americans argue over the Big differences between the 2.
As to your question; i am not a conservative, so i do not know what is and is not the proper definition of "Conservative". BUT, i would think, they are properly closer to the "real deal" then the Republicans, for the simple reason, that they are a conservative party. As opposed to the Republicans, Which is 1 party consisting of 3 fractions; The Christian fraction, The Conservative fraction and The Liberal fraction. ( Note that i am a European, looking in from the outside. I assume Americans would divide them into more "fractions", and the word; "Liberal" seems to mean something different in the US then in the EU ).
No matter how many solar cells you have, they will not work when covered in snow. As for; "Just use enough to work in winter." surely you jest! You would over produce all summer long, just so you can scrape by in the winter! LOL.
On a side note; Solar may provide sufficient power for home use, It will never be sufficient for industry.
I'm not implying anything. I was simply Idling, when i noticed an AC had replied to one of my comments. As the comment in question is semi-flamebait ( O’er the land of the oppressed and the home of the cowards! ) and AC seemed to "accept the challenge" ( Italian fascists, German Nazis, etc ) i simply "shot" from the hip, to see if he was still online and would care to entertain me. to keep you and any others out of the crossfire i did set the comment subject to: "Just trolling, ignore", But it seems you chose not to:)
As for any "issues" the US my have, i can only say; you people need to get out more! your issues are by no means US issues, we have plenty of the same things right here in little old Europe and i'm pretty sure the rest of the world is in position to point fingers:)
So; sorry if spoiled you morning, next time do what subject line says and IGNORE;)
As someone with a website, how would I go about having my site mirrored on different hosts so if one goes down another takes over automatically? I know I could "get a good host" but every host claims they have redundant backups and everything, I would feel more comfortable if I used several entirely different hosts and had the content mirrored nightly. Is that possible?
That might be a little tricky.
Normally you would have no problems, you are simply looking for a "Failover/Heartbeat" setup.
However in this case i am not sure a "normal" setup would work, as such a setup would involve putting both the main and the backup behind the same router.
that is; if the main fail, the backup will detect it and request the router to change it's routes so that, from the outside, the backup becomes the main.
But you are looking to change from one host to another, that is; between to servers that are not behind the same router.
So you may need to use DNS switching. meaning; if you main server is not responding, you update your DNS entry to point to the backup.
This might work if updating your DNS entry is fast.
NO what am i saying! just google "Failover/Heartbeat" i am sure there are many out there better qualified to answer this then me:)
If we speak of friends i would agree. I however am not concerned with family, friends or even employers. you use abortion as an example so I ask you; what if the "pro-lifers" was to gain power, would you care then? Germany was a democracy until they elected Hitler ( i am sure he would just have loved a list of those who voted against him ).
All in all e-voting == paper-voting with only one little exception. The anonymous vote. With paper-voting; you get a piece of paper, enter a "voting box", submit your vote. the fact you have voted is known but WHAT you voted are not. With e-voting; you get the "virtual" equivalent BUT you properly login from HOME, that is your IP will be connected to your vote! and dos the idea of anonymity is lost. needless to say, there will have to be foul play involved but personally i consider anonymity to be so vital for a "true" democratic vote that even the possibility is a show stopper.
If you have nothing better to do with your time then trolling around on/. you need a life.
As for falconhell, I do not know who this person is nor do i care. you see I am what you will be in few years ( decades ) namely; an adult and as an adult i do not spend time "feeding the troll" I just ignore them.
i do not think climate change is junk science. that aside i would like to see a more balanced view in mainstream research. all to many simply view human society as the culprit and leave it at that. this paper says it happend 5200 years ago and now its happening again. well human outlet of green house gases were not responsible then, are they now? i reasonly watched a television program on the subject and the most interesting thing was that several of the researchers cliamed that when looking at temperature raise in atmosphere (as opposed to ground level) only a 1/3 of the projected raise was seen! they further claimed the reason for this discrepancy was the fact that many of the early temperature measuring stations was set up in or around citys dos measuring not global warming but local warming as a result of city expansion. now this is not to say the green house thing is wrong just that it may be more complex then "green house gases did it!!". just my 2 cent (euro cent!)
maybe a similar "demonstration" of the problem could be made by sending such e-mails to all members of you parliament. well maybe you would just be arrested for disturbing the peace:(
did not know that and it scares me. what will stop me from sending an encrypted e-mail to an english citizen and calling the police? the recipient will not have the passwd and as long i use the word "pedophile" in the anonymouse (sp?) call made i can be sure this will be acted on.

Semi-funny story:
I'm from Denmark (Scandinavia) and at this time, two partys holds goverment. one is called; "The Conservative Peoples Party", The other; "Left"
The funny part? (aside from the names). For all intents and purposes; The Conservatives == Republicans and Left == Democrats.
When we Europeans (barring the brits) fail to see a difference between the R's and the D's we have reasons!
Your comment makes sense!, clearly it's posted in the wrong forum.
Now stop trying to raise the bar around here! some of us like reading /. ( makes us feel smart )
For; If s/he is not, Then surly this would be a bad mod?
I mean; s/italians/muslims, This may not be "insightful", But is it a "bad" comment? IMO no, Just another /. comment.
Now get this thing back to 1, were it belongs.
No one's invented a "mental illness detector" that the airports can use to screen people.
Sure they have! It's called Language!
As in; "Are you, or have you ever been, a member of the Republican Party?"
Sorry i could not resist. In my defence, I may have aspergers ;)
This.
Damn, I'm getting to cynical :(

Hi fractal type :)
I was reading your stuff, and you leave wondering :/
Everything was just fine, but then you go; "On the other hand, the passwords still work, so the PD might want to get on that..."
So; now i am wondering, how do you know? you did not log in to them, right? :)
Damn, you got me :(
I here by swear; From this day forth, I shall define insert/remove on a list to be linear in time!
Ps: since you allow n to be a fraction; How many steps do you need to insert an element in a list with 2.5 elements?

Yes, you have none of those Nazi types
And surly none of those Fascist types either
If you Americans are not oppressed, then your smoking something good ( and you really should learn to share! ).
As for being brave? well you do have a few 100.000 soldiers that have shown some balls, so that leaves what? 309.800.000 yellow-bellys?
As your benji-boy wrote; They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
nt
A little quick to the punch there!
How about we wait, till they actually catch someone, before we start felling all high and mighty?
Still, I do love the smell of fascisme in the morning!
On another note; is it not about time the U.S. changed that national anthem of yours?
O’er the land of the oppressed and the home of the cowards!
that would be "switch user and do".
that is; you do not have to switch to root any user will do :)
try; man 8 sudo
If we speak of friends i would agree.
I however am not concerned with family, friends or even employers.
you use abortion as an example so I ask you; what if the "pro-lifers" was to gain power, would you care then?
Germany was a democracy until they elected Hitler ( i am sure he would just have loved a list of those who voted against him ).
but yes "in a perfect world" all would be good.

I say again: you need a life!

yours,
A grown up.
ps. do not reply.
NO!
as you say: "Big Oh only says anything about the upper bound. It doesn't say anything about the lower bound."
the upper bound of a O(1) algorithm is NOT O(n).
O(1) != O(n);
O(1) == "const time";
O(n) == "linear time";
you need a life...
i do not think climate change is junk science.

just my 2 cent (euro cent!)
not all see criminal behavior as the equivalent ... and can does be argued.
of unethical behavior. laws are man made
maybe a similar "demonstration" of the problem could be made by sending such e-mails to all members of you parliament. well maybe you would just be arrested for disturbing the peace :(
did not know that and it scares me.
what will stop me from sending an encrypted e-mail to an english citizen and calling the police?
the recipient will not have the passwd and as long
i use the word "pedophile" in the anonymouse (sp?)
call made i can be sure this will be acted on.
