I have suspend fail occasionally on my Lenovo notebook running debian 8 (systemd) and Win7. I have a desktop system with a Gigabyte motherboard, core i7 and suspend fails there too occasionally - same operating systems.
I have bad luck (or I'm too cheap). I think the Lenovo BIOS is the problem and I believe my SATA III controller is the problem on my desktop.
If software were regulated that way, it would have set the whole industry permanently back. Whatever country didn't regulate, say China, India or Russia would gain a huge competitive advantage. Realistically, how many deaths have been cause by software to warrant such a lock down?
Not to mention the coming AI systems. They are going to be pretty indeterminate by design.
I just (as in this morning) ordered a pair of radios from them for a point to point link. Can anyone recommend good competitors for ubiq's point to point radios?
Yes, exactly. I'm running Debian Jessie and I'm not really comfortable with binary logs. It takes decades of log practice and throws it away. For what? Search capability? Maybe there's some security benefit, honestly I don't know enough about it to comment. I'll be forwarding my logs to nice text files for the foreseeable future though, until I for one welcome my new systemd overlord.
And explain again how "crappy expensive & proprietary" has any bearing on "successful"? Most of us have a "crappy expensive proprietary" OS on our computers from a successful company. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
I have really enjoyed a few of his books including 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.' I definitely HIGHLY recommend 'A Scanner Darkly' and 'Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said'.
On the other hand, I thought 'Maze of Death' lacked depth and was entirely predictable. I also didn't like 'The Broken Bubble', mainly I think because it deals with a lot of "human" issues and not much sci-fi. Possibly I didn't understand it.
I'm slowly working my way through all his books I can pick up at the library. After going this thread, I really want to read 'Ubik.'
I don't agree. bnetd used absolutely NO CODE of Blizzard's to create a battle.net server emulator. Yes, it enabled piracy. The sad truth is that ANY commercial software will be pirated.
bnetd should live on today. If common people like you and I are not allowed to create software that interacts and connects with *gasp* proprietary software, then what kind of world is that? The world we have today apparently, where Mozilla Firefox cannot connect to IIS running ASP. Oh wait, that's entirely possible and legal. Weird...
The last game I bought from Blizzard was the the Starcraft: Broodwar expansion and it will be staying that way.
I dunno, I've torn apart a lot of drives and never found anything bigger than a surface mount capacitor in modern drives. I believe the platter keeps its momentum long enough to let the head reseat by magnetic force.
This won't work when you're on the same network as the attacker. That's the situation that was demonstrated here. There are a number of ways to spoof an IP address on an 802.11 network and have bidirectional communication. Add in the fact that you could be behind a NAT and you don't even need to go through the trouble.
What do you mean, it isn't good for compatibility? SSL dates back to the early 90's and was present in the two major browsers (Netscape and IE) by 95 or so. Any platform not supporting SSL today does not have any excuses.
My Inbox is my month/two month long archive. If it gets too big I move everything over 30 days old to a folder called Archive. Thunderbird's junk mail filter works really well, so well in fact I still haven't installed spamassassin on my mail server. The junk mail filter moves spam to the junk folder and if it misses any, I just toggle the junk mail flag and it moves it for me. If you don't like leaving messages in your inbox, just set up some filters. It's pretty flexible, I have filters that sort out newsletters and announce lists to keep clutter down.
I use the Flashblock and NoScript Firefox extensions to surf the web. I also use Greasemonkey with user scripts to clean up sites like MySpace. I've found the AdBlock extension makes the already slow and crash prone Firefox even more so. Also, I run my own web site, so I don't like blocking other's ads.
I block Flash and JavaScript because it uses my CPU time, and I'd rather have a smoother web experience.
I just ignore advertising anyways. I don't read or pay attention to it. Do the ads on Yahoo really bother you that much? If so, pay for web mail or use a service like Google with text ads.

I regularly borrow, lend and trade games with real life friends in meat space.
Well, throw some stuff out?

So the car is like a fake car that drives you to the wrong building? Or does it do its best to kill you somehow?

You're just bragging that you have access to OiNK. Insensitive clod!

Sounds more like BrainsForSure.
Just shield your CFLs with foil or something. That'll stop those emissions.
HP has research labs? Honestly, I thought they were an ink company. Damn, and I was getting quite used to mocking their "Invent" logo.
Sorry! an unexpected error has occurred.
