Assuming such correlation is useful for credit analysis, how does someone other than the telcos access that kind of information to produce such evaluations?! I'd say it is private information. Correct me if I'm wrong...
I confess to not having read TFA but I guess the summary would have mentioned it given the world-class editing team around here... *cough!*
Anyway, being Thunderbolt an intel technology, is there any such controller/port available in these boards?
Back in 1993 or thereabouts I had one computer graphics course where we had to do a 3D project in PHIGS / SPHIGS (remember that?). The lab had about 20 NEC colour X Terminals - beautiful beasts, by the time - which, of course, were shared by many students; in short, the lab was always packed with people and it was not the most confortable environment to give the first steps in UNIX graphics programming - noisy and very often with no available seats.
A friend got hold of Linux in what were maybe 15-20 3.5" floppies -- that would be slackware, IIRC -- which we managed to install on a non-branded PC. I recall having trouble in getting X to work and fiddling with the modelines to acheive something like 800x600 with probably 8 bits per pixel!:)
In the end it was a great learning experience. We did most of the work at home and, from time to time, tested it at the lab.
Later (or maybe that was the initial trigger?) we had a different course where we had to program directly on top of the X API and also on top of Motif - we also used our home PCs (now that I mention it, I'm not really sure if we had Motif on Linux by then).
Well, there you go: that's my "how I started".
Since then it has been a very rich experience both using Linux and commercial UNIX solutions at a professional and personal level. The distance between what Linux was by then and what it is today is huge in every aspect, but it was already very useful and valuable by then.
Could this be a coincidence or was there some 2008/2009 rollover issue going on here?
set the system time back a few mins before the crash occured and see if your server crashes again... otherwise it's idle speculation
It might be difficult to reproduce if the system clock is NTP synched. Especially considering we had a leap second this year, where the clocks rolled from 23:59:59 to 23:59:60 to 00:00:00 GMT.
As someone else said: check your logs + try to reproduce.

Happy new Year
Check this one out at http://research.mupad.de/. According to the website, "MuPAD is a mathematical expert system for doing symbolic and exact algebraic computations with almost arbitrary accuracy."; I know it includes several math libraries and has the ability of doing 2D and 3D plots...
I don't think it is open source, but there seems to be a free (beer), older version for non commercial use under both Linux and Windows.
Good Luck.
PS: I remember using an even older version quite a few years ago and it was really nice.
HP-UX 11i 1.0 runs on PA-RISC (uname -r returns 11.11).
HP-UX 1.5 and 1.6 run on ia64 (uname -r returns 11.20 and 11.21, IIRC).
So, its there already. And you can buy boxes running it today.
...I don't know koffice well, but since most apps/components in KDE are accessible via dcop interfaces, I'd be lead believe that this specific office suite does, indeed, provide automation.
...otherwise we'd have seen thousands of 'Informative' posts relating oz, pints and quarters to mililiters, liters and other measures easily understandable by other folks.;)
BTW: Coffe around here is served in ~10ml cups: it is strong and bitter. (now go ahead and translate that to ozs !);p
Although I like the simplicity of having direct attatchment to such confidential documentation printers, that might not be possible.
...apart from/., google is your friend if you ask him for "secure printing". There are several aparent solutions including not only the encryption of the data in its path to the printers but the authentication of the submiter on the printer so that the job only comes out in the presence of the right persons... (I know HP has such functionality in some printers but I doubt that the data path is encrypted)
...do not forget to consider (in no particular order):
Fire extinguisher mechanisms
Easily accessible power circuit breakers
Room accessibility that allows you to easily put another cabinet in there (or out of there !) - tall enough doors, ramps if you'll have a raised floor, etc.
Tipically systems pull cold air from the front and blow hot air from the back (check yours, though); consider this when laying out the overall air flow, as you don't want to waste expensive cold air on the wrong "side" of the systems.
Remember that the door on your cabinets will need to be opened. Depending on the cabinet models, the orientation can (or cannot) be reversed. Another point to remember when laying out the cabinets through the room...
Did I mention raised floor and structured cabling ?... Maybe I'm asking for too much....
I like darkish, low saturation backgrounds (#202020, #205060, #307040) with white/yellowish not extremely bright foregrounds (#e8e8e8, #e8e8d0).
Font selection is of the utmost importance. For terminals I like lucidasanstypewriter-12 or the Microsoft "Andale Mono" which I use under Win.
Slackware @1995- >> RedHat @1998- >> Mandrake @2002- >> Ubuntu @2005- >> CentOS+Debian @2008-
Almost enough said.

Let's see what the future holds for it. :-)

As far as performance, it has been able to handle 4 simultaneous 24-bit / 96 kHz audio tracks playing back with no hiccups whatsoever.
...which is nothing by today's standards:
4 tracks, 24 bits @96KHz ---> 4 * 3 bytes * 96000 / second ---> 1152000 bytes / second ---> ~1 MiB/s !!!
Even if you'd go with stereo tracks, that would still be nothing.
Where the key words are: "news" and "matters"...
...and with PyObjC, you can easily plug some "brains" to the interface in good old Python. Really neat !
Of course it can read from a local mbox file... See menu "Tools" > "Account Settings" > "Add Account" > "Movemail". I use it on a regular basis.

Oooops, I guess I misspelled the text, sorry. The link is correct, however. ;)
What good is "Preview" if we really don't take a look at it ?! *sigh*

For some reason, as of this post, 50% of the posts are modded as Funny.

Sure, but it's not easy to back it up...

You just want it to "A" you in managing your "PD" !

Uses his photo camera in manual mode - complicated to operate
Shifts gears manually when driving - complicated to operate
