Yes I did. My comment on the desktop was slightly off topic, yet still related. But my point is still valid. How long have people been saying that linux/unix is the OS of choice for corporate servers? It's not that admins don't know about linux, it's that they just don't know how to use it. You wouldn't want to install an OS as a server that you knew nothing about, now would you?
I've talked to many other admins, and they all love the performance Linux adds to servers. But again, they just don't know how to administer linux, so they use IIS or whatever. Plus, in college, they don't teach Linux. I know at Purdue, all the classes are Visual Studio, IIS, etc. Why? Because MS gives the bookstore education copied of all their software. MS keeps the market cornered not because they are a better OS, or because linux is unknown. They dominate because they target the prime group. Students studying to be the future admins of the world.
Another article about how linux will take over the world. I love GNU/Linux as much as the next guy, but we've been seeing article like this since RH 6.0. Linux on the desktop is the king of vaporware. The article should be modded down (-1) Redundant
div was just an example, and you are correct. My post should not be taken in any way as an example on changing the color of a single word in the middle of a sentence.
Nothing wrong with using style tables while still formatting text with CSS. Last I checked,
was still standards compliant as of xhtml2.0 and html4.x.
<p>I don't think CSS is geard to replace html, but to keep it standard. As browsers evolve and the needs of designers change, the languages we use must evolve with technology.</p>

My normal practice is more of solid values. If ram =512 then swap =128.
I only have 512MB DDR in my linux box with 128MB of swap. The ONLY time I get into swap space is when I run winex games. And my swap has still never gone above 60% full.
Although with the new info from this article, I'm going to mess with my swappiness file and see what benefit tuning can give me. Although just having units from 0 to 100 are kinda vague values.
I think the 2x ram rule is completely outdated.
Ah, yes. You're completely correct that SPL is a far cry from audiophile, as the loudest, boomiest wins. However with SPQ, it's all about sound quality. And not only who's sounds the best, but who's sounds most real to life. In my opinion, this is the definition of audiophile. True though, with any run of the mill car system, the difference is hardly noticable by anyone except the most trained ear.
I guess of course, a true audiophile wouldn't be using an IPOD in the car or using a lossy codec such as MP3.
Yeah, nobody has a car stereo anymore! Personally, I have a high-tech car stereo system, and I won't corrupt the sound quality by playing the songs from the ipod, through which ever adapter you choose to use. We all know IPOD has great EQ settings... blek.
But really, 5 computers? I mean there are geeks out there, but 5 pcs? Anyone that has this many PCs has them networked anyway.
Seems to me this is far from a fair trade off. I don't get it. Lossless encoding for audiofiles? Any audiophiles I know don't power their home/car/theatre system from a PC. Yes, people do it and it sounds good. But we're talking REAL audiophiles here. Not just some guy with some Logitech 5.1s, a Audigy Gamer, and 500,000 mp3s.
And when you also take random port scanning into account, one could easily estimate at least half of all internet traffic is either spam or port/vulnerability scanning. Get rid of both of these and connection speeds will jump!
Sadly, OpenOffice is not supported using Documents to Go for palmOS. Even when I save the document as an excel spreadsheet and try to transfer it over, Documents to Go throws a hissy fit and spits out an error. Documents to Go claims no plans to support native OO format, either.
If this company utilizes pda's, then OO is not the way to go.
The answer to your question is at your local used video game store. Original NES consoles are going for $50+ at many places. And people are paying it. The gaming experience is about more then graphics and sound. For me, I have yet to find a game more fun then Tyson's Punch-Out or Top Gun.
Actually, that's the only way to fix this is a work around. As not only the article states, but common sense states that to fix this, you have to make video processing faster. We cannot do this with our current technology. So we have to use a work around until the technology catches up.
I don't recall reading anything in the article that stated the FBI was looking for pirated music and movies. That was all pure speculation. The FBI refused to comment. Perhaps the FBI was investigating the school using illegal copies of XP in the labs?
I see. I always thought 100% effecient meant that it required 0 outside interaction to continue the process indefinetly. Perhaps just a twisting of words. Touche
Yes, and after a year of working on it, it is not yet fixed. However, when it's released to the public on thursday, I bet patches and fixes will be flying around cyberspace so fast...
So, is he really a hero?
I know I define a successful robot build on how well it does in Robot Wars. All of these other tests seem, well, pointless. When you pit 2 robots against eachother in a battle to the death, that's the true test. Survival of the fittest defines strong humans, why not robots?
