Why have 20 old P2 500mhz sitting in your data center (idling 90% of the time), when an single Quad Xeon could replace all of them for a fraction of the power usage and space.
> there's nothing inherently wrong with liking little girls
After all the debates on Intelligent Design here, that's the last thing I'd ever expect to hear on Slashdot.
Of course it's wrong! Little girls can't breed. Sexual attraction is all about breeding. For someone to be sexually attracted with something that can't breed* means there's something seriously wrong with their sexual attraction.

I'm pretty sure that the reason for this offensive is exactly that.
Otherwise, why not just drop the offending groups?
Or why not use them to track the people posting / making the stuff (and thus get the kids away from them)?
Probably because NNTP is a really effective method of distributing content, especially HD content. Plus it's one which is hard/impossible for the *AAs to track (without compromising the servers themselves).
One of those evil ones which, according to AOL Time Warner executives is the biggest contributing factor towards the twin evils of child abuse and terrorism.
..back in the day they delivered C64s to Europe first because the Brits and Germans were stupid enough to pay twice as much as the Americans were prepared to pay.
This seems to happen across the board.
Shame we're not clever enough to refuse to buy stuff until it's on price parity with US and/or Japan.

Lived with my fiancee's family at first, then we bought our own house.
Renting pretty easy too, and if you're really deseperate you can live for upto 3 months in holiday homes..

Moving Between Countries?

· Score: 5, Informative
>$100 it will cost for several hours of his time.
You're missing a 0 from that.
For the record, I've moved countries, and I found all the information that was needed by talking to my destination's embassy in my own country.
They were happy to help, send everything via email and also answered my questions via email.
For more general information, and social stuff I found http://www.expatica.com/ to be a good resource. Googling for country-specific forums also found a place to find information which wasn't so obvious - like good local plumbers and flat shares.
My move was UK to Netherlands so it was easier as far as visas were confirmed (don't need one), but harder because of the language difference (which I've now solved by learning).
It took me a fair while to find a keyboard that I could type quickly and comfortably with. I've tried the Dells, the Model M, Saitek Eclipse, Microsoft Standard, Microsoft Natural and Logitech Wave.
Only one which is comfortable for writing and coding is, surprisingly, the Logitech Wave.
Don't get me on the subject of mice, though. There isn't a single ergonomic mouse on the market suitable for southpaws like myself:(
Seems logical, people grabbing some HD content for their HDTVs, combined with a general increase in userbase due to all the adverts the MPAA/RIAA keep running about TPB and bittorrent in general.

This is what virtualisation is about.

Think it was called "Napster".
"Object" would be the most accurate translation, taking into account the subject matter.
The jocks are also physically fit and thus attractive. On average more than us geeks.
What it boils down to is: women want to fuck good looking guys.
Which is pretty much exactly the same urge as us guys have. Except we generally don't deny it.

With those low caps it can be nothing else. Make the internet so expensive that no-one can complete with your multimedia sales (cable, dvd, music).
With the added 'benefit' of them being able to effectively gouge movie downloaders.
Please could you post references for your assertion? Then you can be modded up and the parent modded down (assuming you're right).

Security by obscurity? Now where did I hear that idea before.....

Confirmed should be concerned. It's Sunday and my brain's not turned on

They're probably going to own 100% of the high-price videocard market with that.

Erm, the Microsoft equivelent costs more than that in Client Access Licences alone. Add in all the other licencing costs and this is far cheaper.

Sounds like me too.
I find it great that he's being allowed to help, and is getting the kudos for it.
Just hope that when they get something more permanent in that they let him continue to help. Nothing worse than being discourage from your passion.
You should be able to clock to 3.6ghz, so I assume it was a typo. You'd be dumb to underclock it for something which runs for nearly 9 weeks.
They should make records like this for all MPs and their families pubically available, updated daily and hosted on the interweb.
After 6 months, they can decide if they *REALLY* want the intelligence services (and anyone who picks an MI5 laptop up on a train) to have the same.
because it's not Windows.
