I had not experienced that. As you know, a line break would go to the PROM monitor at which I just type "continue" or "go" and hit Enter a few times and we're all set. If I really somehow messed up the TTY, it's always recoverable, just turn off the TTY and turn it back on. Or maybe you just type CTRL-Q to release the paused output (which is likely what happened in your case).
In large installations I use a serial port concentrator. I sign into the concentrator and choose the system to log into. Alternatively, I assign a serial port to its own IP address. From there I have full control (all RS-232 signals plus system reset, system power, and some telemetry) from anywhere. No stupid graphical terminals. I could diagnose and resolve a problem logging in using a wireless PDA like a Blackberry, Palm, or PocketPC.
I remember the cork-board server chassis and the fire hazard they presented. Facebook pulls way, way ahead of Google with these professional specifications. I'm especially fond of the omitted video processor, too.
Finally, it's so refreshing to see a server system specification that does not call for a video system, does not have onboard video, and properly directs console output to a serial port.
I've been disgusted with all the VGA crash carts, PS/2 keyboards and mice in server rooms, and all those video processors eating up system memory on servers. Servers should not have video.
Think of all the carbon dioxide and excess energy consumed by all the idle on-board video processors on most x86 and x64 servers out there. I shudder to think of all the planets resources being wasted displaying a graphical user interface that nobody will ever see, and, worse, reserving precious memory that should be used to serve users holding a useless frame buffer.
Have you ever smirked at a Linux server machine that is still running X and six virtual consoles? This news is really exciting that someone is honestly taking server hardware design seriously, just like Sun, HP, DEC, SGI, IBM, and others did in the 1980s and 1990s before all these x86 servers came about.
Wasn't Google doing this a few years ago and own a patent or two on it? If I recal correctly, the FCC disallowed this technology to be used in the upcoming Google phones.
New York City and L.A. iPhone users rejoice!! This allows AT&T to capture the stellar T-Mobile coverage in NYC and L.A. Years ago, T-Mobile and Cingular created GSM Partners to create a shared network in NYC and L.A. When Cingular and AT&T merged, AT&T was forced off the GSM Partners network onto the horrid AT&T network.
With this purchase, AT&T re-gains the amazing coverage that they used to have with GSM Partners, and the two cities with the most media coverage (and the most bitter iPhone users) will finally stop complaining.
Yeah, if I remember correctly, the packet sizes or windows couldn't really be configured in a way that made it work well on a LAN, but it was spectacular on a modem.
I most certainly paid for my copy of Trumpet Winsock. Even after Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11 could be upgraded with the "Wolverine" Winsock implementation I still preferred the better Trumpet version until Windows 95 came around.
The best legend I heard about Microsoft Wolverine was when a bunch of middle managers were leaving a "Bill" meeting, one of them groaned to the other, "Now I have to go find out what TCP/IP means."
Even so, Wolverine didn't know about dialup PPP so Trumpet was still the winner.
THe real reason I am bellyaching is because this particular system is a 1.5 GHz VIA C7 Esther with an ancient 1 gigabyte CompactFlash card on the IDE port. It's not fast in any notion of the word.
At least battery life will improve. Many of these mobile processors have Java accelerators that Dalvik cannot use. Dalvik is an impressive project but I fail to see how its advantages had an aggregate benefit on these processors that could have had stellar performance and battery life had Android used Java instead of Dalvik.
This was all over DC-area radio between 2002 and 2005. The advertisement spot invited listeners to go to a web site with a name similar to "fightterrorism.org" and join a distributed-computing network that would search for stegenographic messages in the media.
Honestly I don't think you even tested this on Firefox. Resizing the window mashes things under the top border of the screen. The horizontal scroll bar doesn't go away until the window is resized to an unreasonably wide size.

This was back in 1997.

Bravo, Facebook, on a job well done.
So, are there 100,000 sneakers in that container? What happens if we open it?
Edison's machine is a love song. I'm no Mama's fool. Call it what you want, the way it is you're caught in a dream.

Microsoft .NET is not a language. It's a platform.
Does he really not know the difference?

All that for nearly $40 billion.

Oddly, Wolverine had the opposite problem.
Cheers.

I'd love to meet this Internet guy some day.

But I just installed 8.1.
Sigh.

You are also very skilled at embarrassing yourself.
What's "Saturday Live?"

You don't need the fasciles once all of Volume 4 is completed.
Who else hasn't read his copy of volume three?
Considering land-based reactors can be >1 gigawatts per unit.. I guess it's a good start.
"What is interesting for a company this size is that there is no official QA group at Facebook..."
No kidding!!
Keep it up, hacks.

How's that "Don't be evil" working out?
Carbon-neutral? Nope.
Excessively reckless and wasteful? Yep.
The top AOL execs were never this ostentatious.
Well, we did buy Time Warner. They were bigger than your yacht and stable of Cigarette boats.
Fat?
How about PS3 Slim? Isn't that what we all want, anyway?
