Depending on specific implementation, RAID 0 and RAID 1 (and JBOD) can happily run on a single disk. Obviously you don't get any advantages of multiple disks, the data is still striped or mirrored across all n drives in the array...there just happens to be 1 drive.
Some feature implementations also require RAID setups to function. Intel's Smart Response Technology for instance requires the controller to operate in RAID mode for a SSD drive to be used as a cache for a HDD. The SSD would operate as a RAID-0 array of a single drive. See the note under step 4 in the Enabling Intel Smart Response Technology section.
The inside word is that this was largely botched on the government side, with too high expectations, too many changes, and huge feature creep. I would argue that Oracle's mistake was not getting out when they plainly saw that this was a dysfunctional working relationship.
So what you're saying is that Oracle didn't get out of a typical government contract... It was a contract involving government, insurance, medicine, and a very political situation highly likely to change multiple times.
I don't know those exact conditions. But I know for my personal account that I've had with T-mobile my data has gone up over the years while keeping about the same price. I just got an email a week ago that I was getting a 33% increase in data for free.
I really don't get why they're crowing about faster and faster speeds, 5G, and the like. It's just a recipe for blowing through your plan allowance faster.
Faster and faster speeds are accomplished not only by using more and wider frequency bands, but also by more efficiently using those frequencies. That means the overall capacity increases and so (theoretically) they could offer more data at the same price.
So yes if your data cap stayed constant you could blow through them faster. Or they could give you more. Or they have the ability to service more customers without impacting your speeds.
It's depressing, the only laptops with decent screens now seem to be Microsoft's Surface line and some Panasonic Toughbook models.
No Surface model has ever had a 4:3 aspect ratio. First 2 generations were 16:9 and subsequent have been 3:2. Only two current models of Toughbook do, both are 1024x768. Yuck. I haven't seen that resolution, let alone a desire for it, in a new machine/display in over a decade.
"A lot. More than I will make in the remainder of this job, which is seven years and four months for sure," Comey said. "But it was, in my view, worth it."
$1.3M would be the lower bounds of what would be paid. If the FBI paid $10M or $100M it'd still make his statement correct, but absolutely meaningless.
They have a huge lock on the media market with the iTunes store
I'm an Android guy and haven't used iTunes in years but do they really have a LOCK on the media market? Is there really that much exclusive media that's only available in iTunes?
I have every moral and ethical right to turn off my location, use adblock, block scripts, not include full information, etc.
Absolutely agree with you. That being said, they also don't have the moral and ethical responsibility to make it easy and/or possible to do all those things.
You're reading more into it than what it says. It doesn't say that 120m Euros will pay for it all. It just says that a grant in total of 120m Euros will be available to pay for state of the art equipment.
It also says that free wifi will be available in every town, village, and city. It doesn't say how widespread it is or that every person can access it within the locality. Have a library that has free wifi? That town is covered. Is there a coffee shop in Paris with free wifi? Paris is checked off. It doesn't mean that Europeans will be guaranteed to get that wifi signal outside that town library, or the other side of Paris.
You paid for the hardware and you pay for your cellular signal. You didn't pay for the services Google provides on an ongoing basis. Those are all given away for "free" so that they can monetize your activities. This isn't a new concept people.
They're using the same definition of limit as what cell phone companies use. Like how your unlimited data plan has a 128kbps limit when you reach some total data limit threshold.
I bank with a decent sized local credit union. After they got finished patting themselves on the back for their technological advancement rolling out EVM cards, they refuse to support any of the digital wallets, including Apple's, Android's, or Samsung. Their reasoning (at least as of December 2015) is that no one is using them.
Well, it's kind of hard to use them if you don't support them and permit the card to be tied to a digital wallet. So we have a chicken an an egg problem. They won't be supported until usage goes up, and usage won't go up until they're supported.
Saying your Honda Insight goes 10 months between oil changes doesn't mean anything without stating how many miles you drive and what type of oil you use. Synthetics used in modern vehicles not subject to severe conditions can go 7500-15k miles and up to a year change interval.
Wheels are easy to check for basic alignment. Does the vehicle pull one way or another? Are the tires wearing evenly? If the answer is no and yes respectively, then your alignment is fine.
If you rely on visiting a shop to check your tire pressure, you're a poor owner. It doesn't matter how mechanically inept you are, every car owner should know how to check tire pressure (and not just rely on a TPMS) and how to correct pressure if it's not correct.
And it wasn't even the actual devices that were "accidentally" shown. It was for accessories that were compatible with the devices and nothing was indicated as belonging to those categories. In reality, the "accident" likely was them creating a category in their back end and marking it as enabled/visible before hiding it until Wednesday (or whenever).

Do any of those things have operating systems develop, marketed to the general public, and sold by 3rd parties?
You have a lot of faith that people can read in our schools.

The male Russian life expectancy is actually around 64. It dipped mid 90s but has rebounded up to 64.7.

Perhaps Britain shouldn't have brexited the EU then...

Such a campaign can backfire.

Does it have to be an A4 hole punch? All I have it letter/legal hole punches.
Please. My social media feeds have been filled with out of focus, blurry photos for just as long as social media has been around.
Sorny's Walkerman models have never been lighter then the predecessor. They're latest mp3 Walkman weighs in at about a pound.

It solves one problem but creates many more since case law isn't settled on if you have a right to be silent regarding encryption keys.
