Regardless of whether it's "morally right" to run Windows servers, the fact is that much commercial software with no adequate FLOSS counterpart requires Windows, and also there's a bajillion MCSEs living in Steve Ballmer's rectum who love running Windows.
Am I to understand it's your position that Christian churches do not often press their significant political weight against any movement for homosexual rights
No.
or that they don't often cite the _exact_ words in Leviticus that I link to above as justification?
Christians who give as much weight to the OT as the NT are flamingly dense idiots.
What "they" should do instead is quote Romans 1:25-27
For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.
How do you suppose it is that I, an atheistic liberal with an ax to grind, knew exactly which words to google for to turn up that quote then?
Maybe because you, like I, grew up going to church and still remember much of what you learned, even though you've come to your senses and realized that religion is an artifice.
The Soviets had computers.... some home built, some Western, but generally speaking they weren't very good. The Soviet approach was also very stereotypical: get an army of mathematicians and engineers to find exact analytic solutions to the problems you're trying to solve. You'd have armies of engineers and technicians designing things that in the west we'd give to a couple of engineers with some computer time.
But in the 1960s, the US didn't have *that many* computers. We got to the Moon mainly on the backs of slide-rules and rooms of women continuously punching tabulator machines.
But I don't think you can find a case of somebody who was prosecuted for making a joke -- not involving a bomb threat, and not reported to the authorities -- that was mistaken for a crime. That's unprecedented.
Yeah, I know. But it's 30 fscking years old. Someone besides IBM should know how to do it!
But then... DEC/Compaq/HP has had seamless disk clustering on OpenVMS (and then Tru64) for 25+ years and they're the only ones who seem to know how to make it work. Even when HP directly licensed the technology to Oracle, Oracle fscked it up.
I wonder, though, if the problem is that clustering needs stuff like a Distributed Lock Manager woven deeply into the OS, and only DEC had the burning desire to do it and do it well.
The story I heard was that during development the OS/2 graphical interface was being tried out by running it on DOS
That's an incredibly bogus story. For someone with such a low id number, you should be ashamed for (a) not remembering, and (b) not having researched this on the Intarweb.
Windows (advertised in early versions on the box as a graphical environment for DOS) explicitly sat on top of DOS from v1.0 (1985) through v3.11 (1992?) and then implicitly for Win95, Win96 and WinME.
OS/2 was a bottom-up complete redesign.

"It was my fault, because I left the wallet in the car."
There's criminal fault, and then there's "metaphysical" (certainly there's a better word for the concept!) fault.
The foolish-but-quite-legal act of you leaving your wallet in the car does not grant someone else the right to break into your car.
Who would want a server running Windows, anyway?
Regardless of whether it's "morally right" to run Windows servers, the fact is that much commercial software with no adequate FLOSS counterpart requires Windows, and also there's a bajillion MCSEs living in Steve Ballmer's rectum who love running Windows.
Thus, that's an incredibly stupid question.
Well that's my point.
I don't always disagree. Sometimes I try to bolster other peoples' arguments.
Low end stuff.
And the racks upon racks of servers that average 10% capacity. Why couldn't many of them be ARM-based? (Except for the fact that they run Windows.)
I'd say that ARM is on par with x86 Hz vs Hz, or even better.
With all the caching and pipelineing and uber-high speed memory buses that x86 has, which ARM doesn't, I just don't believe you.
IOW, benchmarks or you're full of shit.
ARM already got performance on par with x86
Pull out the benchmarks, or that's complete BS.
Does this mean I'll be able to run my 10TB Oracle data warehouse on this,
Most probably not, and definitely not if Oracle doesn't generate ARM binaries...
or would I more likely use them in my webserver farm to save on power bills?
That's a possibility too.

Block CNN, Fox News, You Tube, etc, etc.
Hell, block all sites except those needed by the employee for the competent functioning of their assigned tasks.
For developers, that means allowing various technical sites, and for secretary and shipping clerks it's Expedia, UPS, etc.

You just seem a lot angrier about it than I am.
Only a flamingly dense idiot (or liberal with an ax to grind) would confuse Judaism (Old Testament) with Christianity (New Testament).
Now, it must be mentioned that I only get full 100mbps downstream when downloading linux distro packages from a local univerisity mirror
There's the rub. Most of us don't live near Universities or any other site with a monster upstream pipe.
So, even if I did have a 100mbps connection, it would not effectively matter.

Hah. Andromeda Strain was a great movie. 20x better than the action movie crap they peddle nowadays.
Occasional nuggets like Lord of War remind me that there's a smidgen of competence remaining in Hollywood.
Google is always your friend. I'll give you a hint, though: Michael Chricton.
Also, I made a mistake: it's a movie.
Bare-metal client hypervisor's are a fairly new technology with the leading ones "which are still in development" being from Citrix and VMware.
This makes me a little distraught, since hypervisors have been around for 30+ years.
