Most people seem to have this mindset that using RAM is bad, and the more memory you have free and unused the faster your computer will be.
Try FF3 or 4 on a computer like I have at work (Windows XP, 2GB) and you will surely change your it-works-for-me-you-ignorant mindset. With FF you are *always* running out of RAM. If only there were *good* NoScript and AdBlock clones elsewhere...
With HTTP streaming you can rely on a pool of beefy reverse proxies like Varnish or Nginx to handle the load, or let the CDN handle it as any normal HTTP traffic.
HTTP is relatively common and relatively easy to handle/debug. I'd prefer not having to study another protocol;)
Now, the interesting stuff is to provide Apple's HTTP streaming, MS' Smooth streaming and any other HTTP, chunk-based protocol from the same, unchunked video file using a webserver plugin to do the chunking on the fly. I know about the Unified Streaming Platform, but there doesn't seem to be many players in that field right now;)
dstat is certainly fancy but doesn't provide more than iostat (from sysstat package), that is per-disk (or even partitions and NFS mounts) I/O activity.
iotop would bring *per thread* I/O activity, which can be a very useful tool sometimes.
We did the same with Amiga 1200 that had an internal slot for 2.5" HDD: using a custom made 2.5" to 3.5" ribbon, and either stuffing the bigger disk into the case, or like i did, plug a hole on the back to make the ribbon go outside and plug the 3.5" disk, using also a PC power supply for the external 2 GB HDD (and later, 4x CDROM !). Not very nice (using the top of a Verbatim floppies packing to support the psu switch, and the box of an accelerator card to fit the HDD into) but it still works:)
"porn just can't stand up to such high quality images" ? that's BS. Imagine sexual organs and nipples in hi resolution... now that rules. More vivid than ever !
You are actually using more rules than you really need to, as you can combine the rdr and the pass rules:
## Webserver (http/https) rdr pass on $ext_if proto tcp from any to ($ext_if) port http -> 10.0.0.8 port http rdr pass on $ext_if proto tcp from any to ($ext_if) port https -> 10.0.0.8 port https
But it seems that by using the rdr pass, you can't log, which he did in his second rules. Besides he already used the rdr pass for spamd and ftp proxy so he knows about it.
This is old news (2013-08-27) even by Slashdot's standards. Forums that were vulnerable have been probably all hacked (then fixed) already ;)
next, the golden shower ...
What's with the current trolling wave on Slashdot? At least they could sign, like the GNAA did.
Just to disturb the dyslexics out there :)
Kudos to them! Will it be powered by the new italian "cold fusion" device also seen on Slashdot today ? :)

Nuclear stuff ? Check.

I heard this used to be the way in Soviet Russia ...
Hi, my ID is lower than 2^16. Oddly I never changed my email address from that time, so it's invalid for a long time now.
nope, it's:
FINDER IS TEH SUK
Much quieter PC since I replaced Maxtors and Western Digitals with 200GB ATA Seagates.
I can stop whenever I want.

"the cheap biatch cant get broadband ?" ;)
A few more billions tsunami, and the much wanted 48 hours day is there, at last !

That's what I read at first.
Cool, we'll have the winners by 2008 :)
I think Google will start a project codenamed GSkyNet or something ...
"algorithmic search engine" ... now that sounds good :)

You can use a packaged distro and compile/install some packages from source in
