As fan of lem mentions, the issue you state only happens if the wsus regkey is present. The regkey can only be present if you image a machine that has registered with WSUS. Best practice is to make sure that the machines that you image does not have any group policies applied to it.
Blackberries on BES offer enterprise features simply unheard of with Winmobile or iphone devices. Windows mobile only recently got the much needed security features such as remote device deactivation and wiping. Blackberries simply offer more for the enterprise such as a slew of custom encryption features, mds for intranet based apps, web proxy features so you can control user's network browsing, full featured logging (down to the phone calls you make) fully customizable IT and security policies, and I'm sure I'm missing a ton of other features that Blackberry offers that has not even been contemplated for Winmobile much less iphones.
Maybe you should be offering your customers reasons to use Blackberries and not reasons to make your job easier. You never know, they may think that one of those features you don't care too much about is pretty nifty...
You should have at least 2 of these:
AMD-V or Intel-VT Capable Motherboard and Processor Combo (for those interested in running Hyper-V or other enhanced VM setups)
I prefer the Intel branded boards for my setups, never let me down...
At least 4GB of RAM per box
Cheap SATA drive 100GB maybe?
2 or more Intel Pro 1000 NICs (can get them for about 35 bucks on newegg)
You should also get:
Any box with a P4 or similar should work for this. Setup Openfiler or FreeNAS. If you are playing with VMs, shared storage is a must. You will preferably setup RAID0 or something equally as fast (assuming this is purely a test environment and you dont care about redundancy.) It will be hit or miss with the network adapter support for integrated NICs so you may want to pick up an intel pro 1000 for one of these as well.
You will also need supporting hardware
2 gigabit switches - 3Com unmanaged 5 or 8 port ones are excellent and support jumbo frames very nicely
A cheap 4 port KVM, there is a trendnet 4 port USB KVM for under 75 bucks available at most shops
3 desktop UPSes or maybe 1 good enterprise UPS. Always a smart move to protect your investment, and power failures can easily screw up a RAID0 solution.
Don't forget to check out the online HCLs for the VM solutions you want to run. The above configuration should work for VMware ESX or HyperV, ESXi has tighter requirements so it would be worth checking out.
Happy hunting!
You can setup Untangle as a passthrough or as your router. There's no crappy software to install, all network traffic can be screened and logged, there is an override function and best of all its free.
You can't compare apples to oranges. Physics, chemistry and other sciences that explain the physical realm are physical sciences and rely on strict adherence to the scientific method. A scientific study of ethics or morality would put it in the category of social sciences or the study of human related activity and require a more statistical based adherence to the scientific method.
Simply based on the ephemeral nature of ethics and morality one's observation cannot be said to be more true than another's. Morality and ethics is what we define it and for that very reason impossible to test. For instance I could believe beating my wife is wrong while you believe that beating your wife is right. Between each other I have no greater moral or ethical authority than your belief.
Using god and dogma to define ethics and morality is a fools way out to define how social conventions came to be and is prone to abuse by those in power to interpret dogma. Remember the inquisition, the crusades, the current strife in the middle east... God is not necessary to explain why we behave in the manner we do. Social sciences such as sociology and economics can make generally good predictions on macro level human behavior. These sciences show us the reasons behind societal norms and helps explain why moral codes "mores" are generally shared cross culturally while more exclusive "folkways" are less so.
My god let's me eat pork, what's yours let you do?
The universe is a big place, far larger than the scales we are used to. In that big place there are countless stars with even greater amount of planets orbiting them with about 13 billion years (as far as we know) to configure itself. So I'd say the possibility of nature finding the winning combination to life given these extreme tolerances are quite good.
Except that Cable/Sat TV set top boxes are proprietary much like XM/Sirius. Ever try to hook up a comcast box to a cox cable network. Without the box you are pretty much relegated to hbo and basic subscription channels.
The most important part of an endoscope, that being the scope still needs to be bought. Now if the guy made the actual scope and not just the webcam adapter for the scope, then that would be truly impressive. once again i feel misled by slashdot because the title suggests the guy actually built an endoscope out of a webcam. Shame on you slashdot
This is purely speculative but I would imagine someone interested in such a psu would be those interested in nonstandard cooling methods. Peltiers can draw nearly a 100 watts each (tho on avg id say they are closer to 50), maybe throw in some extra peltiers for video cards and chipsets, it might make sense to buy this thing. Or maybe even a compressor based solution, im sure thatll eat those watts right up.
So they are going to close some 20-30 bases in the US so we can have weapons in space. Space weapons sound cool, but a substantial ground presence is needed in any confrontation, either to mop up the mess, or contain it.
I doubt PSP was on the front of Nintendo's mind when they decided to create the new GB. Though they are both in the portable gaming market, they are operating on completely different ends of the spectrum. That would be like saying because BMW released a new convertible, Kia would respond in kind by building their own. Such an argument is baseless. Gameboy has been milking their loyal fanbase and caters to a whole different demographic. It's amazing but the GB is still an ideal platform for younger children: it's cheap, uncomplicated, and sturdy. I think the PSP is targeted to a slightly more mature audience.
Why must Linux conquer in the end? Microsoft has billions in the warchest, countless corporate alliances, patents, and whatnot. The Beta and VHS discussion was not really about price or technological superiority. It was more about market clout. Sony didn't have wide market support for its format, other companies joined Matsushita to produce VHS systems, which eventually leveled the prices.
Microsoft continues to dominate with its ties to big OEMs, and on volume sales that these OEMs deal with, Microsoft remains a pretty competitive option for providing support, brand recognition, etc. Plus it doesn't hurt companies and customers that nearly every app written has a version for M$.
People have been claiming Microsoft dead for years now, just like Apple should have been dead a few years ago. It isn't going to happen. If anything, Microsoft will figure out how to buy Linux and jigger with it.
Although journalism should be an unbiased thing, journalists are still part of a buisness whose incentive it is to make profit. Supply and demand. So do we blame the sensationalist writer, or the thousands of sheep reading the articles and demanding more. How are such articles from O'Gara tolerated in a trade mag like this. You would think the linux community would be more educated and less susceptible to this type of journalism, then again noting the anonymous cowards on slashdot, i take that back...
That device looks unweildy and is undoubtedly exceeding the max weight limit intel or amd would want you to use for a heat sink. Quite frankly i don't see the point of a computer that requires you to fill it daily in order to run it. Overclocking should only go so far, they have some nice professional compressor based solutions that should be able to achieve similar performance without the hassle of purchasing dry ice on a regular basis. One I know is called vapochill. Dry ice with no load is around -75 C whereas the vapochill should be around -45 C
And if you were to go the dry ice route, since AFAIK dry ice isnt conductive, why don't they just build the entire computer into an icebox (not the hard drive), and put a regular passive heat sink on the processor rather than construct that monstrosity of plumbing. I would think the overclocked memory and chipset would benefit equally as well. Oh and of course throw in some sacks of silica gel in there, don't want to have condensation now.:]
The issue at hand is really a "which came first, the chicken or the egg?" question. Though some may argue otherwise, schools exist to educate young people and prepare them for their eventual dilbert-like status in the the cubicle.
So if these student all learn linux and open office and who knows what else the schools might be offering instead of M$, then what will they do when their prospective employer asks, do you know how to use word, access, powerpoint, excel, xp, the list goes on. Is this a safe bet, and who should adopt what first.
You have to reexamine your own sale or rental analogy. Reality is they aren't selling you goods, they are selling you intellectual property, one that inherently hinges on rights regardless of medium. The physical medium of the CD just happen to be a convienent vessel to transfer the information produced so you can enjoy the right to listen to said CD, DVD, WMA, whatever.
You have to think of IP rights as a concert ticket. With the ticket you can listen to the music at the concert, you can even give the ticket to a friend to go in you place, but should you really expect that you and your hundred buddys get in the door because you made a bunch of photocopys of the orginal ticket? No, of course not. Rights certainly don't transfer like that, the world would be a chaotic place if it did.
So yes, you are perfectly within your rights to share your goods; lend your friend that shiny britney cd of yours, but one physical cd = one rightful owner. The DMCA may be unagreeable for various reasons but its not as draconian as you make it out to be.
Oh just for a sake of reference, anal sex (M/F or M/M, F/F? i dunno for sake of completeness) is an offense punishable by jail time in a few states. I dunno the last time anyone went to jail for that... Meaning, don't pirate movies and start selling them in Times Square and then be angry that you got caught. It just proves u were being a damn fool.
DMCA laws as much as we hate them are going to be here for a good long time. Until someone abolishes for-profit content, it's silly to say the DMCA is purely evil (flamebait MUAHAHA) which it isn't, well not as much as most slashdotters believe. Furthemore the hammer of the DMCA rarely falls on joe user, unless he was using napster (but then again he was stealing IP no matter which way you look at it it was wrong), so continue to tape your tv programs, rip ur CDs, download Pr0n. Until they start sticking DRMs on everything (which then u should boycott the product) and busting heads, sit pretty. The laws are there primarily for the big boys, the major piracy groups and would be piraters alike...
Then what stops someone from injecting themselves with said injections, or popping pills or whatnot. Desperate times often leads very ordinary people to very desperate measures (i.e. injecting yourself with say dog cancer injections after finding yourself diagnosed with testicular cancer only to have the cancer mutate or some other weird side effect like that) in light of that do you really think the FDA really wants to dispense these pet miracle cures like candy?
As good as all this sounds like for killing cancerous cells, i think the aim of future research should focus more on stem cell technolgies. Cancer doesn't just appear one day, well unless ur genome was corrupt to begin with as in the case with some retinoblastoma patients. Cancer is a usually a slow and silent progression until the point where it explodes out of control. Normally your body does a pretty good job at screening for genetic anomalies during the cell cycle. Only after the accumulation of a series of oncogenes and damage to cell regulation mechanisms like p51 will a cell become cancerous. Stem cell technology holds out the hope that not only can u stop tumours already in progression, it can reverse a lot of genetic damage that has already been done. Just killing a bunch of cells with a cancerous phenotype only means the patient has a pretty good chance of triggering the same mutations down road. Maybe if nanobots can go in and fix DNA damage, that would be excellent, but I don't foresee that anytime in the near future.
The choice for 4 engines may stem from politics more than technology. All 2 engine aircraft are subject to ETOPS (extended twin-engine operation performance standards) Regulations. ETOPS regulations force twin engine craft to fly on a route with suitable airports for emergency landings nearby (AFAIK the A380 is gonna need some big ass airports, traditional ETOPS diversion airfields will probably will not cut it). Here's more on the topic from Wiki!
In 1988, the FAA amended the ETOPS regulation to allow the extension to 180 minutes diversion period subject to stringent technical and operational qualifications. This made 95% of the earth's surface available to ETOPS flights. The first such flight was conducted in 1989. This set of regulations was subsequently adopted by the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA), ICAO and other aviation regulatory bodies worldwide.
In this manner 757 series, 767 series, some Boeing 737 series, the Airbus A300-600, A310 series, A320 series and the A330 series were approved for ETOPS operations. The success of ETOPS airplanes like 767 and 777 killed the intercontinental trijets, forcing McDonnell Douglas to terminate the MD-11 programme and Boeing to scale down the production of Boeing 747.
The North Atlantic airways are the most heavily utilized oceanic routes in the world. Most are conveniently covered by ETOPS-120min rules, removing the neccesity of utilizing 180-min rules. However, many of the North Atlantic diversion airports, especially those in Iceland and Greenland, are frequently subject to adverse weather conditions making them unavailable for use. As the 180-min rules is the upper limit, the JAA has given 15% extension to the 120-min rules to deal with such contigencies, giving the ETOPS-138min thereby allowing ETOPS flights with such airports closed.
In the North Pacific, ETOPS-180 (180 minutes) is satisfied by the availability of airports in the Aleutians Islands and Midway Atoll. As the Aleutians airports are prone to adverse weather conditions and volcanic activities, Boeing subsidised construction of the Midway Atoll diversion airport to enable the 777 to fly the North Pacific routes. After a petition from Boeing and United Airlines, in 2001, the FAA allowed a 15% extension to the ETOPS-180 rules bringing them to ETOPS-207. The approval is granted only to the 777. This approval is granted only if Northern Pacific route diversion airports are closed.
I'd rather pay 5 cents to dl music if it meant easy acess to an extensive library, rather than spend hours rooting around irc or whatnot trying to find songs. Nothing is ever free, you'll always have to work for it one way or the other. Just my 2 cents.
The cops do use cell phone tech, just not cell phones... I know for a fact in dc, mpd uses cdpd for data transmission in their squad cars. It also runs win98:[
Mac SE's use 720K drives? At least I'm pretty sure they originally did. Anyway if thats the case, unless u have a 720k drive layin around that u can copy the OS onto from teh interweb I think u'll be out of luck. Some ppl have modded their SE's for 1.44 or added external drives but thats just going overboard.
