  1. Re:Doubt it on Novell Wins vs. SCO · · Score: 1

    As we've seen with all the work killing zombies, you've got to knock out the control nodes.

    Nah, I think she's anti-SCO these days. She did the hit, but they refused to look after her when it back-fired.

    Oh, you're just being unreasonable.

    You then need to make an FOI claim for the documents relating to the classification decision. Put them online and then get them blocked. Repeat.

    His department's media releases don't make it through ours either. Spamassassin thinks he's using some sort of dodgy mail server. They should hire some Russians to make the thing look legit.

    Nothing happens in Perth, where were you last Monday night?

    Do you remember Janet Jackson's nipple? Tell me extreme delays on live events weren't in any way government imposed.

    So you're saying I can start reporting search engines to ACMA. Nice, now we've just got to get Google to pull out and redirect everything to their New Zealand site and we're all set.

    LPG isn't natural gas. That's why we flog LNG to other countries.

    OK, you take care of that end. I'll build the submit-bot to flood ACMA with requests to add to the list.

    More importantly, we have oil.

    He's probably telling the truth. Why would the Americans deal with him? They're talking to the foreign minister/DFAT or the PM's office.

    It'd probably work better than their attempts to make and distribute porn films starring fake foreign leaders. In this case, it'd be a funny take on the filters, but I'm not sure I want to see Big Kev in action.

  14. Re:Article summary on Why Some Devs Can't Wait For NoSQL To Die · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Some of us are simply looking to not use the relational model for *every* bit of data in the system. Application global, put it in a table. Uploaded files, put them in a table. User data, get it from LDAP, nah, create our own table and get somebody to feed it manually. Given the number of apps I've seen that use SQL as a simple key/value store, it's no wonder that there are techniques to avoid the overhead completely.

  15. Re:Tried to check out the E3 Networks site on Slimming Down a Supercomputer · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's targeted at managers with money. Need I say more?

  16. Re:deduplication on Open Source Deduplication For Linux With Opendedup · · Score: 1

    It's neither acronym or abbreviation. Duplication is making copies. De-duplication is getting rid of the copies.

    I'm waiting to see where some of the change/no-change people fall when it comes to metric conversion. Most of the arguments sound similar.

    K isn't a prefix, it's a fundamental unit: Kelvin.

    Oh my god, it's like the time they refused to give us 32 bit IE for NT 3.51. We had tu run the crappy 16 bit version. We eventually upgrade to 4, but ran Netscape in the meantime.

    Somehow, I think all of the big businesses locked into IE6 won't care.
