Great, there's a big base of Linux servers running the Half-Life engine. However, these days a CS server does not use much CPU power.
I'd know it's not from the same dudes, but I'd rather see a Battlefield 1942 server, you need killer hardware if you want +40 players on one server. The finally managed to make a Linux version of the server so the number of server will hopefully raise. But it still uses CPU power.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Once you would have a cellphone if you would like people to think you were important(silly yes). But these days I think that the truly cool people are those are those who turn it off. So what if the company can't contact you, it should be the job of the monkeys to be available 24/7.
Not that it is a good thing. I have even seen newer Ford cars with push-rod engines(An engine configuration where the camshafts are located lower in the engine). Ok it was cheap, but really amazing since other mainstream cars have left that concept before 1986.
But maybe one day when Americans have to pay real money for gas, they will start looking at producing and buying cars with higher fuel efficiency. But until then, you'll excuse me if I keep my old Pontiac.
Yes even with the EU version it is stil illegal for me to move/copy songs from CDs to my MP3 walkman if the CD is protected. I have already put 2 CDs back on the rack in the store when I saw that "not pc/mac compatible" tag.
Depends on how it's configured and is a excellent example of why doing NAT on your router does not equal firewalling.
I have seen may firewalls allowing everything outgoing, even for servers that had no reason to connect to the internet had access to the outside. Sure it might be easier to run that "Windows Update" but still.
Yes, it does look like that, loadbalancing on layer 4 would do that. But one could enable server health check on the application layer and would cause the server to be marked offline if a specified page returned an error. But we all know that how things should work in theory, does not always match the real world. It always gets more complicated.:)
Kids, when I got on the internet here in Denmark, there was no world wide web. You paid for an expensive account on a unix box you could dial into. You could then access Gopher, Veronica, etc. Not that it made it less interesting, because the noise-floor on the "sigal" was very low
Anyway, there were only one place to get connected in the beginning, then came providers and the problem that our local(inside the country) traffic, got routed half across Europe only to end up on the other side of the street.
Then in 1994 came the DIX, Danish Internet eXchange point. Horray. So all a provider has to do, is to get a connection to the DIX and they can make peering agreements with other providers to route to each other networks via the DIX.
Now if you visit their site, you can see the prices clearly stated on the page(divide by 7 to get $(damn is going down)).
I(of course) can't see how the entire network in Australia is built, but I'd say a Exchange point would be good. I can't imagine forcing someone to pay for traffic the way the article mentions here, can be good.
But if you set up a exchange point in a major city where everybody is represented, and the cost to get connected to it, is the cable and a small fee to keep it running. Even smaller ISP's can join. But then again I can't get the complete picture by just reading one article.
Now, when I buy a CD, I expect to be able to use it in my PC and copy the music to my Sony walkman using the program that came with it. If I am in the store and I can't see if I am able to do that, I won't buy it in fear of wasting my money.
I must admit that I watch less TV these days.
Once I could spend the whole evening watching TV, but today there is just so many other things I'd rather would be doing, so I don't watch much tv anymore.
Now I have the local version of cable, which brings me about 40 channels and about 3 times as many if I would rent a decoder and subscribe to the digital channels. But I just don't care. I haven't even gotten a DVD player yet. I was into laserdiscs a lot and surround sound before it became "hot".
It looks like more and more channels are going digital and I guess that in a few years, most of the channels I can see today will be digital too. Maybe they will use the step to go digital to squeeze more money out of the viewers.
I like the cool features on the digital channels, fx formula 1 where you can choose between different cameras but again I don't feel like paying more so I guess I will end up looking at public service channels only.
It's true that it is a b...h if you are going to add a lot of stations yourself but for me, it was a one time job. Also the idea that I can get new stations without looking for them is great.
However, one fears what the future will hold. I wouldn't be surpriced if many stations went to be pay stations only.
I don't want a PC in my livingroom, but I do want to be able to listen to my mp3 files or internet streams. Sure I could build a PC for that, but it's not the same. I have had my Audiotron for a year now and I'd say that it would take a lot of work to make pc work as well. A units that fits with my other stereo components, a big display in front making easy to navigate and a remote control. I have had my computer hooked up to my stereo since I got my Commodore 64, and I am tired of it. It is hard for me to describe it, but the Audiotron is so easy to use that I wouldn't exchange it with it a PC, even if I got it for free. And there is no annoying and ugly machine with a noisy fan, nothing you need to boot first and maintainance time is zero. I like that I just grab the remote control, press "Albums","Artists","Genre","Title" or "Net" and flip through them.
I think I'll keep my Audiotron. At least I can play whatever I want in streams ans has an optical output for my preamp. And Turtlebeach actually listens to people on their mailing list and they release Firmware updates, including beta-ones to play with. The Philips unit, looks like something I would have in my kitchen(which is fine), but I'd really prefer the Audiotron in my stereo stack.

So, ATI gives you a virtual monkey you can spank while Nvidia gives you, hmm
This is why stuff like BitTorrent (or) would be very cool.
Aren't we touchy today, ok, i'll say it again: "So the third movie is call Domimatrix?"
So the third movie is call Domimatrix?
the size of the file is dependent on the size of the bytes within the file
:D ..... mkaaay.
so a byte containing the value 233 will create a larger file than one containing the value 3? interesting. Maybe you should stick to prgramming in c#.
Kids, when I got on the internet here in Denmark, there was no world wide web. You paid for an expensive account on a unix box you could dial into. You could then access Gopher, Veronica, etc. Not that it made it less interesting, because the noise-floor on the "sigal" was very low

heh! (and as we all know, throwing Nazi's into a debate, will sucessfully kill it).
Yes, but sadly that "balance" is shifted by those with money as it is today. Leaving less room for those who has to start from the beginning.
Chicken, pain tastes like chicken..
Now, when I buy a CD, I expect to be able to use it in my PC and copy the music to my Sony walkman using the program that came with it. If I am in the store and I can't see if I am able to do that, I won't buy it in fear of wasting my money.

You can check out any time you want,
but you can never leave.

Hmm seems to me like this product rather should be called Turbotax XP.
why would it have such a following?
But then again, so did Spice Girls
