It depends on your use case. If you just surf the web and do email then no, you don't need to max out. I often run multiple VMs while also compiling code, etc. The more RAM for me the better.
The plague can take 3 forms, at least one of which, pneumonic, infects the lungs and spreads through the air, much like the common cold does. Just because humans had a role in helping to spread it doesn't leave the rats and their fleas off the hook. It is still quite likely that there were multiple vectors combined that caused the rapid spread of the disease.
I guess both seismologists that I saw interviewed on the news were lying then. There's at least a 5% chance, according to them, of a larger quake in days or weeks to come.
This one, however, could be significant in that seismologists say it concerns them because the fault that caused it hasn't been active in awhile, and it runs directly through downtown Los Angeles. There is a small but significant chance that a larger quake could be coming.
...around the supposed benefits of server-side virtual machines.
You're running an operating system, so that you can run a software package, so that you can run another operating system, so that you can run another software package that is then interfaced-to by users or other stations on the network?
I guess that I can see it for boxes that serve multiple, different paying subscribers that each get their own "box", but wouldn't it just make more sense to size the applications to use the host OS on a single box as opposed to running multiple copies of operating systems and services that eat resources when the virtual hosts all belong to a single customer?
There are tons of benefits to virtualization. One is more efficient use of resources on the server (CPU, RAM, I/O, etc.). The other is the ability in some platforms to actually move running VMs from server to server which can be useful for balancing resources and maintenance. You already pointed out the benefit in a multi-tenant environment.
Done properly, where it makes sense (which is for many, many applications) it can save money and provide a more robust environment.
Shield laws mean that professional (read: attached to a major news organization) journalists will always be more legitimate than bloggers, as they have legal protections that bloggers can only dream about.
Not according to the 9th Circuit Court. Bloggers are journalists, according to that ruling.
I have many clients who use various products to decrypt outgoing SSL/TLS. In virtually all cases they take great pains to exclude things like financial and medical data/sites from such scrutiny, for privacy and often compliance reasons. I don't know of a single case where it's been used maliciously, though I'm sure there are a few out there. In the vast majority of cases it is as you said, for DLP purposes.
Europe discovered America and now, a few years letters, America wants to discover Europa. They must be subconsciously influenced by the mother continent name from which they originated.
That is going to be quite a surprise to the ancestors of the Asian tribes that actually were the first to settle the Americas;)
That's sort of the point. M-Theory might just be a dead end. If we don't find the supersymmetric partners in the next run of the LHC at the very least string/M theory will need considerable re-vamping if not a total scrapping.
I don't think there is one. Simply but probably poorly put, supersymmetry postulates that each particle that we know of and have observed has a heavier 'super-symmetric' partner particle. The significance of this is that if true it explains a whole bunch of how the observed Universe works. If it is not true it's almost as exciting really, at least to me, because it means there are some big missing pieces to our current models and a lot of new and exciting work will need to be done.
The short version of the article is that the LHC should have detected supersymmetric particles by now. There's still a slight chance that the next run will, but the energies that fit the current theories are running out. If they are not detected soon physicists might just have to move on to new theoretical models. For one thing, string theory will probably need to be scrapped.
This is not accurate. Only Mavericks (v10.9.x) was vulnerable to the SSL issue - the security updates to Mavericks, Mountain Lion (10.8.x) and Lion (10.7.x) contained a ton of security updates in them - at least a good chunk of which would affect Snow Leopard.
Despite the flames I'll get for saying it and the vehement disagreement proponents will spew, that's because psychology is not a science. Not even a little bit. The human mind is far too complex a thing for the current state of our understanding to treat scientifically. Psychologists aren't much better than snake oil salesmen.
I doubt this story is anything other than him bullshitting. I'm sure the ticket was real, but as you point out I'm also pretty sure that didn't matter to Facebook. Just another attention whore here, nothing to see.

So what do I need to install to configure webmin?
The IQ of a chimpanzee should suffice.

The GPU in the Galaxy S4 consistently beats the Ax processors in the graphics department, so no.
I think you were just whoooshed too.

Point taken, it is unlikely, but 5% is a large chance compared to most quakes.

Space longevity record"
Theres been (unmanned) stuff up in space for longer than a few years before, what record?
How about those Voyagers now in (or not) interstellar space? Their missions have beem over 30 years and still going
I believe they mean a record for a reusable, recoverable vehicle.
There are 3D printers that can handle metal so yes you can print gold. Unfortunately you also have to provide said gold ;)
But...but...he writes a BLOG about Tesla! How can he be an idiot? He must be an authority on all things automotive!
(that was sarcasm btw)

How so? What is interesting about a router doing...you know, routing? It's trivial from a technical standpoint. Routers do it all the time.
I'm not condoning it, mind you. I think it's a terrible idea and I'm glad I don't have Comcrap as my ISP.

A lot of people also think McDonalds tastes good.

It's all on one page, and it's paragraphs separated by useful, illustrative graphics. ADHD much?
Not to mention that the Keurig doesn't make coffee that tastes anywhere near as good as fresh ground and brewed or pressed coffee.

Wait...you did an OS upgrade on a production server without carefully vetting the upgrade? That's beyond an amateur move. It's downright idiotic.
