It's not that expensive with the price of drives these days. The nice thing about a mirror is that if your controller (or something else if you have a software raid) dies you can mount one of the drives on its own. After dealing with a failed controller, I'm glad to fork out a little more money for the piece of mind.
If you are a reporter, and you're exchanging calls with anyone on the "list" suspected of leaks why shouldn't the government take a peek.
Because it's illegal. Christ, if you people don't want your liberty, fine. Just remember there are some of us that have a constitutional right to privacy as an American Citizen, and we likes it that way.
Actually, if you change the permitivity of the layer ABOVE the trace, you change the the "effective" permitivity of the transmission line (since e_r of oil is greater than e_r of air, you will increase the effective e_r of the transmission line). This will cause a net change in impedance of the transmission line. This cause cause havoc with timing. (check out "Microwave Engineering", Pozar) Just a thought.
You actually said *a stable release*. For many of us, testing is stable enough. Perhaps you should clarify next time that you mean *the* stable release.
Strange, I had no trouble with RC2 of the debian-installer. I think it may have been RC1 that flaked out on me once, but I've done a few software raids with RC2, no problems to report (I cannot say anything about LVM however, haven't tried).
Last time I checked, the FCC has no rules on individual words. There is no such thing as the "7 dirty words". It's pretty vauge, something like "Nothing that is indecent". The FCC only follows up on complaints, so I'm guessing that no one really complains about southpark, but ComedyCentral probably has some internal rule not to allow the "7 dirty words" on certain shows.
Just a question, does anyone know how is light intensity measured? I've heard of a unit called a "lumin" or something like that. Is this the "output" that they are measuring? I was under the impression that a 100W bulb will consume 100W of electrical power, and depending on the efficiency of the bulb, you will get less than 100W of radiated power.
From their site:
"Planet CCRMA at Home is a collection of software packages that you can add to a computer running RedHat 7.3, 8.0, 9 or Fedora Core 1" (and 2, if not now then very soon) "to transform it into an audio/video oriented workstation. Here at CCRMA we use a consistent and well defined Linux environment for our daily work in audio and computer music and research. With the Planet CCRMA at Home package collection, you can easily install most of that environment on your own Linux system."
It's a apt-getable addon for Fedora/Redhat, which is easy enough for new converts. I haven't used it in a few months (since a switch to Debian), but they do a very good walkthrough of how to setup a Linux audio workstation, and everything works very well together.
Actually, I was thinking of going the other way, so I can comment more on Fedora.
I tested out Debian-Sid/Sarge quite a few times, and love it. Only one real problem, no software raid setup on an install, which Redhat/Fedora make really easy (good for us cheap bastards who don't fork out money for a hardware raid controller). You CAN do software raid on Debian, but it is not quick/easy. If you know Debian, I would say stay with it. You will have a nice distro that will have a very long lifetime (quick updates, etc) as opposed to RedhatX-now-Fedora that will be releasing at least 2 times a year. (There is a Fedora-legacy project, don't have the link in front of me)
If you're putting up a Desktop machine, Debian-unstable always seems to be the first to get the bleeding edge apps.
I still use Redhat9/Fedora, simply because I really know how to lock 'em down. As soon as I feel confident that my Debian installs are secure, I'll probably switch to Debian.
Are you sure about this? If the signal is in a microwave band, most likely it's in a band that's absorbed by water. Thus the rain is absorbing signal, not refracting it. And yes, I am an RF Engineeer.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but:
The desktop OS/Office Software market is not your typical 2-3 major-player market. Microsoft is a convicted monopolist with over 90% market share. This is not an offer of help, this is a predatory offer to stop 3rd world countries from adopting Open Source Software.
do you honestly think these people like where they are in the tax bracket? just to let you in on a little secret, no one likes being poor.
it's easy to knock the system when you've never needed it.

If you're looking for a specific card, this is in my office Dell Optiplex workstation, I think it's an EVGA, it was ~$50 at the time.

As another engineer, I laugh at the fact that you are even thinking of using Excel or Calc.
Apple is committed to locking down OSX for x86 to Apple-branded hardware.
Do you have a source on this?
Ah digital, where 1 is 1 and 0 is 0 :) Point taken.

Anyone know if Redhat RPMs are available?
