In other news, if you can't make a dump of your database, how are you doing backups?
You missed the point completely. Some systems just can't stop for a dump/restore. EVER. And you cannot use PostgreSQL for such an operation because the developers can't descide how the data are supposed to be stored.
If my system manages to dump 20 000 rows per second and restore at a rate of 10 000 rows per second that means a 100M row database would need at least 4 hours for an upgrade. Try selling such a system to a large company. They will laugh. And 100M rows is not really that much - but it is to much for PostgreSQL if you want 24/7 operation.:(
Does the on-disk format still change at every rel?

This makes maintaing a _large_ Postgres-installation a real pain. Dumping a 200GB database to SQL and piping the SQL back into Postgres can take days. How hard can it be to decide on one format and to stick to this?
Mysql is still able to read and write ancient databases (the ISAM format was defined in 1986 and can still be read).
This software turns the slimbox into a remote - which is not really that cool. You still need a decent video player. Paying $250+ for a remote control for your video player is, well, a bit much.
.. can we use the same algorithm to reject recycled tunes and encourage originality? I for one, still like the fresh talent and community feel of the tracking scene.
Why are you alienated by the fact that your brain works in a predictable manner? This is nothing new - the formulae for "beautiful women" has been known for years. This is just one more step in the process of understanding how we work. I guess we will see more and more of this - in a few years we will probably see computers improving food recipies, making whisky and designing clothes.
Wow. ~169 000 lines of code. If you subtract drivers, network and filsystmens from the Linux Kernel (2.4.20) you end up with approx. 35 000 lines of code.
Can anyone tell med where the rest is? Is there really so much NUMA-code in Linux 2.6?
The case is somewhat redundant. Thanks to some UN copyright directive, legislation is already on the way to ensure that the next hacker which does anything like this will be put away without to much fuzz. So, the case will not be of any juridical significance.
The defendant did not write the program in questing, the state hasn't got the faintest idea how a computer works, and decss is not that (technically) exciting compared to libdvdread.
Have there been any legal issues with libdvdread?

Memory bandwidth. A 64bit CPU can fetch and store data over a wider bus.
Try using raw IO for the VMware disks. Raw IO bypasses the caching so the kernel can't buffer any of this. For VMware this is a good thing - whatever operating system you are using probably has its own buffering and caching routines.

Wow. Debian has updates? Then how come Debian Stable is still shipped with KDE 2.2?

Uhh. You are confusing "prolem" with "fault". Of course its AMD's problem if a significant amount of the MOBO's are crap.

Ahh. This explains the BSODs. They use second grade developers for the kernel and such.
Where? Where?
ehh. nevermind. this is wrong and redundant. *blush*
