I remember the game "Secret of Mana" for super nintendo had these type of radial menus. This was back in '96 or '97. I really liked them though, it was very easy to navigate with them. Hopefully that also be the case with web browsing.
Does anyone have the IP subnets or class C subnets that the RIAA and/or MPAA own? I'd like to have my home IP router/firewall deny all access from the outside that originates from their networks. Anyone?
Would this prevent them from trying to actively attack a system in my home?
I've been using Linux exclusively on my home PC's since 1996. Until this year, I've taken the "well I can download the ISO for free, why pay?" approach. While this is certainly true, I've decided I want to support the community and companies that have supported my in my computer hobby. It isn't very expensive to BUY a copy of your favorite Linux distro, so why not do it? You will be benefiting our community and the open source projects we so enjoy, as well as benefiting the companies that are seen as "enemies" by the MPAA, RIAA, Microsoft. It's a win-win situation. The/. crowd are the "uber-geeks" of this open source revolution, lets do our part to help it along.
I've seen 2 MB/s RAID5 writes on a Compaq SmartArray-SL, and I've seen 475 MB/s for RAID5 writes on an AlphaServer ES45 with four LP9000 2Gb/s fibre cards attached to a Compaq Enterprise Virtual Array...
It also depends on the speed of your disks. Are they antiquated 7200 rpm disks, or are they newer 10000 or 15000 rpm disks?
And of course if you are doing RAID in software...thats a whole different animal.
Is everyone here illiterate? The WINE Homepage says "WINE is Not an Emulator".
WINE is a Windows compatibility layer. It allows executables written for Windows to run under Linux by having all the necessary Windows API's re-implemented under the Linux OS in an Open Source manner.
An emulator emulates some hardware (e.g. atari, NES, SNES). WINE is running your Windows application NATIVELY on the intel-compatible CPU in your system.
Jeez... I would expect that the/. crowd here would do a little basic homework before complaining so loudly about "emulation".
