I've had some similar but worse experiences. With me they sent me a letter that I've been using too much data the last couple of months and that I had to pay for that. Not a warning or anything, just a bill directly. Not all ISPs around here are that great, altough there are a few that will never give you any trouble.
If you use either Linux/FreeBSD software raid (especially the FreeBSD variant is very good) you'll be able to use different drive sizes. Or... get an Intel motherboard with Matrix Raid chip, it'll allow you to add more drives to an array or increase it's size when you increase the storage space.
However... not using RAID would make it more flexible for you, wheter it's worth it is up to you. Personally I'd go for RAID 5 (I have done the same at home).
Well, using a system like Tribler it should be possible to realise a youtube without hosting it, but for something like that even a website wouldn't be needed anymore.
Perhaps it'll be a site where people can upload there torrent files with a description and thumbnail so others can view?
Yes, they did. However, after a couple of months they've put the sites back in the results again (not sure if they've cached it now).
IIRC the problem was that Google put the entire page in it's cache, that way people could look at the page via the Google cache even after the sites put it offline. There's a simple solution for that, put some headers on the page to block caching, the Googlebot listens to that perfectly. But... they do want the preview but not the cache, something Google does not offer.
You are correct, but I think Google has every right to show that information. The page was freely available at that moment, there business model is just flawing if they only want to make it available for a couple of days imho...
And Google has been sued (atleast in Belgium) for just that, some newspapers didn't want Google to show the text on there site, so they sued and won. In exchange Google removed those websites _entirely_ from there search results, I'm just wondering what they would have liked better;)
He does know the difference between Celcius and Fahrenheit, and it's indeed "normal" for videocards to run at temperatures like this.
The temperature a processor can handle greatly varies, while CPU's usually stop working around 80-90C die temperature, videocards can take at least 20 degrees above that.
However, if he's nearly burning his fingers on the thing, than I wouldn't want it in my PC.
So... when will this technology finally reach our laptops and mobile phones... the first expectations were telling about somewhere in 2006 IIRC, I guess they were wrong;)
I'm just wondering, why don't we hear anything about the fuel cells anymore? It was in the news daily a couple of years ago and right now I haven't seen any news about it in months.
Either way, great to see that they've been able to keep the efficiency heigh, 80% is really not bad for an induction system.
From TFA
The sheet is 21×21 cm, 1 mm thick, and weighs 50 g. It contains a grid of 64 position-sensing units and 64 power-transmission units. The sheet is capable of providing 40.5 watts of power with more than 80% efficiency - sufficient to operate a small laptop computer.
It would just make us start floating I assume, atleast they were able to let a number of things float because of an intense magnetic field over here: http://www.hfml.ru.nl/froglev.html
Dragging and dropping features from one application to another would be pretty hard to implement, perhaps it would be possible in KDE as there is a very thorough integration in every KDE application.
Perhaps Google Picasa can help you with that? Soring images by date is easily possible with just about any program, as for the rest... what kind of similarities are you thinking about?
Try Amarok, it has all the features you want (mood and everything can be automatically indexed for you)
Dutch or French content, since everyone in Belgium ought to know both Dutch and French properly it wouldn't be a problem for them to read either. But I do agree a language switch would be preferred on sites like that;)
I disagree, they do have a purpose and a use, however it's not used for the right purpose often enough. If I visit a site with the TLD from my country (.nl) I expect to see a dutch site, if I visit a website with a.fr TLD I expect a french site. TLDs like that have a purpose, however, they lose there purpose as soon as people start putting english site's on.nl domains and dutch sites on.com domains. That however, is a totally different issue.
The problem is... most of those spammers use random mailaddresses, or even, my mailaddress. I've seen several email bounces coming by because the spammers were using my mailaddress. So that would not be a full solution, it would help though.
Theoretically, faster than any other distro. You can select what you do and don't want in a program, resulting in smaller binaries, resulting in less memory usage and faster loading. Noticable? Probably not, but theoretically it should make a difference
Modular distro, so you have full control over the installation. I agree, (nearly?) every Linux is modular, but I have not found a lot of distros where I can tell what I do and don't want compiled into the program, that adds a lot to the customizability.
It teaches you more about Linux. Well, let's compare it to installing SuSE, you boot the dvd, you click next a couple of times, you're done installing. Did you learn anything? Probably not. Lets install Gentoo, we have to choose our bootloader and configure it manually, we _have_ to select what packages we want (or they won't be installed at all), we have to compile a kernel... hmm I'm guessing it'll be more educating than a distro like SuSE. And no, I'm not claiming Gentoo users are smarter. But you do learn a little bit more about Linux.
You can update it whenever you want, don't have to wait for the latest version of the distro like Fedora Core 5/6, Yellow Dog Linux 5 I must admit that I haven't used fedora in a while but the last time I've used it (FC1 and FC2) it was not possible to go to the 2.6 kernel without reinstalling. Just a serious question though, is it possible to upgrade from FC5 to FC6 without having to reboot and put in the CD?
Huge community of people, and the best documentation among all Linux distros, so you'll never have unsolved problems. The Gentoo forums are known for there good support (I'm not a regular visitor, but I've heard much praise about it). And I agree, 'best documentation' is just an opinion. But that doesn't make it entirely untrue, the support (on the forums) is pretty good.
Not all of his remarks are opinionated, but I find it a bit harsh to say he doesn't have any points. Just many general points that are not Gentoo specific;)

All of them are definately true, however it is not said that (some) of those points are valid for Ubuntu or any other Linux distro.
I definately do agree that it's a fanboy post, but he has a few good points. disclaimer, I too am a Gentoo user
The problem with embryonic stem cells is there exponential growth, without doing any effort the cells quicky duplicate so fast that it just becomes a cancer, the non-embryonic stem cells shouldn't have that problem and it should be easyer to control there growth.
In Soviet Russia you don't use Lynx, Links uses you!
I kid;)
Ontopic again, could someone verify the submit thingy? I cannot imagine that it isn't working (I'd consider it a good thing though, why is it so hard to use a _button_ instead of a image? Buttons always look the same and are the obvious clickable item, with images it's just guessing...
Slashdot Mirror
"No Strings Attached"
Maybe you should show them that line?
So what will change? Perhaps some manager will move but for the rest it's exactly the same as before.

So... they're going to sell SCSI only?
When will people learn that SATA is also IDE...
But it tells you what to look for when creating the rootkit detector.

I was thinking along the lines of "Pirating Platypus"
Maybe that would make the pirate searching a little bit harder for the *AA too.
- Everyone uses the word tag
- Tag is a lot shorter so it takes up less space
PS: no, I didn't RTFAA little girl goes into a pet show and asks for a wabbit. The shop keeper looks down at her, smiles and says:
"Would you like a lovely fluffy little white rabbit, or a cutesy wootesly little brown rabbit?"
"Actually", says the little girl, "I don't think my python would notice."
I definately do agree that it's a fanboy post, but he has a few good points.
