I guess the real difference is that you've got a user list on the IM services but not on IRC. But you can likely set up some notification for who's online to.
Anyway, for whatever reason people saw a usage for both and IMHO IRC is more complicated (the first times I used it it wasn't very simple for me:))
In our case in one of the channel and the one we used the most we knew each other IRL.
So the difference was small. The obvious advantage is that you can just type anything and see if someone bite / there's likely always someone awake and available.
And there's private messages if you want them.
But of course I do understand the supposed advantage of the other IM clients is to show your pressence even if you aren't there for chat (which would also be doable on IRC but whatever.)
Is the consequences supposed to be punishment or stop it from happening again / keep people on the right track / work with how people think and feel and how their lifes have turned out (rehabilitiation)?
I suppose it may be punishment and belief in that that will keep people on the right track. Never mind it doesn't seem to work.
In the case of preventing the crime then I suppose the risk is bigger that a serial murder will continue murder people than someone who killed once by anger / personal reasons or whatever.
On the other hand if the person seem rehabilitated and not seen as a risk anymore I suppose you could release the serial killer quicker.
There's no reason your account balance couldn't be in gold rather than dollars I suppose. Except it would be harder to guarantee your access.
Even if you use a currency it doesn't have to have inflation built in but say here in Sweden the inflation goal is 2% so that's what you can expect I suppose. But then what you measure inflation against differ, inflation against on limited raw resources may be higher.
But ZFS snapshots every modification and got de-duplication to?
Though from people in say #pcbsd or whatever it's called it seem like the memory requirements for using de-dup is massive?
btrfs doesn't snapshot the whole time but just when you tell it to?
The idea for me was to switch this usb flash drive to btrfs since zypper doesn't have the undo feature of yum but it can do undos using snapshots if you use btrfs.
I guess the yum alternative may be safer for your data though.
Guess I'm going away from the subject. But it would be interesting to hear how the memory requirements are of HAMMER using various features and compared to ZFS on Solaris or FreeBSD.
I only really followed DragonflyBSD early and I know their focus has been towards multi core and clusters from the beginning. I guess for me personally the point is rather that I thought ZFS was cool but I use a desktop machine and by now I could use btrfs and get about the same effect so by now Solaris, FreeBSD or Linux doesn't matter much for me in that regard. Or well, DragonflyBSD in this case:)
It's always interesting to read about it though. (And I think it would had been interesting to read and get to know more about QNX to. Where is it going today? Thoms latest blog post was about how the Nexus 4 and 10 was ugly. I can see how that is a problem when you're talking about the OS side of your devices. Not.)
The problem with anonymous cowards is that there really are no reason to answer because your answer may never be noticed anyway. You're just wasting your time.
And no, I don't have extensive knowledge of either. I know they both do snapshots for instance and I know btrfs perform well. Whatever former Sun or Oracle can find a specific setup where ZFS beats btrfs is beyond me but I've never really trusted Suns benchmarks anyway. They feel just as useful as Apples to me.
What's the major threat of Indonesia? Seem to be top us here in Sweden.

I thought the Chinese was the people with the money. Whereas you was mostly buying on debt?
Now I have to Google who it is.

kilo, mega and giga when talking about data meant what it was. Was what it meant? .. we spoke binary! Whatever :D

It all depends on how much you dilute it.
It (well, ICQ but same shit) was the first one over here. But then for whatever reason people switched to MSN.
Personally I belong in the camp who used IRC and never saw why I needed ICQ to begin with.
Different networks, more advanced clients and lack of webcam support I suppose.
KDE telepathy stuff would had been cleaner without all these protocols.
How much space do 64 A9s and interconnections use up? =P
It's happened before. Don't buy a x86 mac the last year or so if you want to use it in the long run.
I suppose one reason could be if it prevents hack to run on other hardware.
I don't know how things work in the US.

But then I live in a different country.
Morally?
Yes? Why not?
Yes.
.. but then I don't have the privacy issue and use my card everywhere. I'm not doing anything illegal with my money so it's no issue to me.
And I think killing cash would help with that, but sure the "thiefs" could use gold or trade or whatever instead.
There's no reason your account balance couldn't be in gold rather than dollars I suppose. Except it would be harder to guarantee your access.

Why don't switch to gold as well considering how the FED threat your dollars?
Why bother?
To begin with if you normally don't pay with cash you don't get much cash.
Also it litters the pocket or whatever.
On the other hand just think about how much better dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=1048576 count=10240 would perform on ZFS?!
(Or maybe not, what do I know?)
But ZFS snapshots every modification and got de-duplication to?

Since the attached PDFs to his post contain the benchmarks he ran I'd say yes.
But the Linux people got btrfs so HAMMER and ZFS isn't all that much to long for any more.

Your purchasing power is higher.
I was mostly thinking about rocket engines and people working with rockets and whatever research and researchers.
Both the US and Russia for sure wanted to get whatever they could get.
I have too little knowledge about actual planes.
