I've been hesitant to buy a Momentus XT, because of early flakiness and a firmware fix that seriously degraded performance.
Anyone here have more info on this?
We update from a local mirror. That's the only host that apt should connect to.
Most of our ubuntu boxes don't have direct outgoing http access anyway.
Them: "Have you embezzled money?" Me thinking:Oh Crap! This is the IMPORTANT question! God, I hope I don't suddenly act nervous! My entire future is on the line. Me saying: "N-n-n-o, n-n-ne-never!"
Yep, My Nazi-ism is required again. "Democratic" with a capital D is the correct word. "democratic" with a small "d" is what what you say means something totally different.
So what's the diff between VMware server and Player? All of VMware's shifting products confuse me.
VirtualBox won't let me start a VM from the GUI and close the the GUI while the VM continues to run in the background. I can't come back later and reconnect to the console. That sucks!
I assume assume that running one's own Exchange server at home provides to a professional Exchange administrator the opportunity to tinker with and hack at an Exchange server at home rather than at work where bosses tend to frown upon such activities.
P.S.
I found it very hard to type "professional Exchange administrator"
What worries me about the "good enough" mentality are its implications for security.
If attention isn't being paid to visible aspects of quality, you can be sure under the cover that attitude is "just get it working ASAP!"
The biggest apparent hole in the Roku's featureset is the inability to play the content you already own.
True. They are not likely to add that capability either.:( Their box costs $100 and has only a very simple remote. They don't want the support costs involved in supporting anything as complicated as CIFS and codec issues. They want to sell an idiot proof black box that requires no after sale support.
That said, I'd love to be able to stream my music collection through it...
MS bought NCSA Mosaic? -- I don't think so!
They bought Spyglass and renamed it IE after. Mozilla and Fire Fox are the direct descendants of Mosaic via Netscape.
Ah, a troll of ancient vintage rises again. This old canard is not worth my time to refute. I'll just call BS, and let myself be flamed for lack of content.
Yes, terminal.app is a GUI app and so is xterm. Isn't the whole purpose of a graphical display to let you have a whole bunch of xterms open at the same time? At the moment I have 4 iTerms open with a combined total of 11 tabs. That's pretty much how I've used Unix since my first SparcStation was plopped on my desk. "Lot's o' xterms"
See, I really don't think that the point of this exercise is to create lots and lots of energy, but rather a way to dispose of garbage without making use of lots and lots of land, and as an added bonus, puts some power back into the grid as well.
We already have incinerators that greatly reduce landfill volume, but they have a serious problem. Incomplete combustion means that a lot of the stuff that goes up the smoke stack and the resulting ash is pretty darn toxic. If we can burn the garbage more completely, the left-overs will be much more palatable (so to speak).
Providing shell access to a shared machine is madness and you cannot provide security for your users this way.
You are right! Unix was never designed or intended to be used as a multi-user environment! There are no admins who are capable of managing systems in this fashion.
> SSL will raise a certificate error unless they have some way of getting a fake cert. I can do something like this...
I hijack paypal.com and redirect incoming sessions to https;//paypa1.com which is a domain I own and have a valid SSL cert for. I buy the cert from the Hong Kong post office or some other obscure root CA.
Actually, it concludes:
Data loaded into unreferenced znode are flushed back to the durable storage if necessary and memory is freed. Znodes themselves can be recycled at this point too. The "passage" (a.k.a. comment) discusses the life cycle on a znode. The author is taking "Artistic Liberties" (a.k.s lying).

I think you are advocating using SSD for swap. If you're running a very swappy system you'll wear out your SSD pretty quickly.

Democrat Senator Leland Yee...
"Democrat" is a noun, not an adjective.

I'm pretty sure the Adblock FF extension WON'T work in Chrome!
How much do you want to bet that the new browser won't support Adblock Plus?
Duplicity rocks. I'm a long time user.
