Reliability is not so great an issue with raid systems being what they are today. What the bean counters fail to consider is the cost in man power required to replace seagate drives on a constant basis. Not just in the racks but process RMA's or the proper destruction and disposal of drives which may contain sensitive data.
I wonder how those numbers would look if other vendors were offered an equal analysis period. I know WD was mentioned but it didn't appear they got equal share.
I can't imagine why I would use a windows javascript engine when the real deal is available already.
Ubuntu is the slowest of the Linux distributions for servers, but lends itself well to the windows95 crowd of users with it's gadgetry and half-whistles to entertain the first waves of AOL style user migrations from windows.
Having lived through and remember the era of phone company monopoly that was destroyed by the courts in the early 80's I vastly prefer not to suffer under that same heal for any length of time. The Judges decision is timely, or would you prefer history repeat itself first?
*Having a backdoor into any encryption is not ideal security*, as that back door, or weak encryption is equally, if not more so, vulnerable to the bad guys as well.
What makes you think only the good guys will use backdoors or exploit weaker encryption? What if it's a bad guy that gets ahold of the cops phone and looks inside? Which agency will be compromised?
Bad guys often have better equipment than the good guys and by bad guys I am also including foreign nations, mafia, competing corporations, and Militaries of the world in addition to criminals.
When will people get it through their heads that the same tools are used by both good and bad? Good people with guns stop bad people with guns. But bad people with guns also stop good people with guns. Good encryption can be used to protect bad people, but good encryption can also protect the good people.
The catch here is the bad people won't care about artificial constructs such as laws. If they need a gun they will steal one or make one. If they want to cover their tracks online they will find a way to do it. The rest is just FUD and ignorance.
Another millennial that get's their 'science' from the entertainment industry. ( CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, Magazines, Radio, Movies, etc )
Plants convert CO2 to Oxygen that we turn back into CO2 by breathing in Oxygen. ( Photosynthesis )
Plants breathe in what we breathe out, and we breathe out what plants breathe in. ( This goes for any source of CO2 )
If you want to get more CO2 out of the air, replant the Amazon rain forest. Plant more tree's period. Tree's scrub the air for us and provide cooler temps wherever they are.
Now, go learn how to science and always check your sources!
Sure, it is the scale that changes the equation because it creates a monopoly on violence
Are you suggesting we allow a competitive market for violence? Declare open source violence? We have that in the form of Mobs, Gangs, and the occasional serial killer. Yea lets just open the gates of violence to include people other than what the majority vote for * to keep that very thing from happening*
and it is seen as 'legitimate' just because some form of a government is initiating it.
Most often 'some form of government' was chosen by the majority to be found suitable by the populace. IF the populace has control of the vote.
My position is easy to understand if you realize that there is something called voluntarism. Voluntary participation is the defining metric. Using group violence to force participation and of-course the inherit taxation that comes with such participation is the key difference between a government and a private activity.
Voluntarism that is so rare that people that finally do go and accomplish what's expected by everyone else to be done *for them* receives a fucking medal. It *could* be a defining metric if it was insanely more common. Which it's not. We have too few people that run *towards* trouble and too many more that run from it. Like New Yorkers running from aircraft in the sky.
Taxation helps pay for the people that run towards trouble, since the best most people can do is criticize them from their fat fluffy arm chairs.
Slashdot Mirror
the inability to guarantee the erasure of all data on the drive, unencrypted data should never hit the drives at all
Wow, that's not something I had considered. Thanks for that bit of info!
Won't someone think of how they are to contact the babysitters watching the children?

Also: First. :)
This is willfully waiting and watching people behave like idiots and assholes.
This will pass and everyone will cough nervously and go back to the latest media generated distraction.
Gore should be tried for the fraud he's perpetuated. Watch the senate hearings on his BS some time.
When our solar system has exited this warm section of space you're going to be really, really embarrassed.
Yes, I read the article before this chicken-little shit started. No I cannot find it again but I am still looking.
And don't start talking about tinfoil hats. There's billions being made here. What would you do for a million? Don't lie.
Ask yourself, who is selling the 'carbon credits'? How are they generated, and who is getting the money from them?

I see what you did there.

Browse the web through a VirtualBox instance running from an image downloaded daily from Github that is shared by thousands or millions.
Done.
at the expense of ideal security.

Having been a victim of this sort of thing, my heart goes out to the employee's and their families.
It's the most devastating thing I have experienced as an adult.
So we have one set of colors established after 911 to indicate terrorist threat levels, and now another for hacker threat levels.
This is going to get really confusing during Christmas.
Anything green produces oxygen and consumes CO2.
The problem with the 'green movement' is misdirected science. We have long known what eats CO2. That's been 'settled' for some time.
Buy Carbon credit from people growing 3 or more trees. Problem is the bureaucrats won't be able to magically create 'carbon credits' to purchase.
Ask yourself seriously; "who makes the 'carbon credits' now and how do I make them myself to join in on the profit?"
Please tell me you're kidding...
Instead of sending more useless probes to get data from Jupiter's atmosphere, which is pointless,
Or discover a new source of Hydrogen or other 'non-renewables'. We won't know until we explore.
Hardly pointless.
I'm no expert BUT
Are they not teaching basic Earth Science in high school anymore?
At least hit wikipedia before making shit up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
I can't even.

I think the answer here is obvious.
Oh the Humanity! :) :) :) :P
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Hilary hired Trump to be the distraction.
This is how you de-fund terrorism.
They got Al Capone on Tax evasion. :)
You all may well be correct, but in America it's not who's right or wrong but who can afford the lawyers to prove their point.
He who has the biggest lawyer wins.
What's to say this press release wasn't published for a full year after the domains were seized?
Fed:
- Captures Domains
- Waits a year while hosting site.
- Publishes press release
- Statute of limitations has not expired.
- Begin arrests.
*Hint*
Laws only affect the lawful.
