FWIW, on my AXP 2600+ (1.9GHz), encoding runs at roughly half as fast as the run time of the video I'm encoding, i.e. 1 hour video = 2 hours' encoding.
Yes it is losing 14 GB or 13 GiB to the file system [...] losing an average of 2 KB per file becomes significant
To lose 14GB due to cluster overhead of (on average) 2KB per file, you'd need about 7 million files. Unlikely? Yep, just maybe.
Sure there is some loss due to cluster overhead, but the real "loss" is just the fact that the marketing dept. decided that a gigabyte is a billion bytes, not 1,073,741,824 bytes.
Correct. How can you trust running Linux on top of a closed-source MS controlled VM?
You can't.
Why exactly do you need to trust it? Think Microsoft are going to detect Linux and make virtual hardware behave flaky to make Linux seem unstable?
So let's see how that would work out for Microsoft... I run Linux on physical hardware and it runs rock solid. I run Linux on virtual hardware courtesy of MS' Virtual Server 2005 and then suddenly Linux is unstable as hell. Who in their right mind would blame the instability on Linux in that scenario?
If you don't want to use Virtual Server, then don't. Use VMWare instead.
"Digital Video Disc" came first but some of the companies wanted to call it "Digital Versatile Disc" . The official word is that "DVD" doesn't stand for anything now.
This is probably because of the restrictions MS has added to limit concurrent incomplete TCP connection attempts. You probably have a whole bunch of 4226 events in your system log.
The TCP/IP stack now limits the number of simultaneous incomplete outbound TCP connection attempts. After the limit has been reached, subsequent connection attempts are put in a queue and will be resolved at a fixed rate. Under normal operation, when applications are connecting to available hosts at valid IP addresses, no connection rate-limiting will occur. When it does occur, a new event, with ID 4226, appears in the system's event log.

Not to mention that Windows won't let you format the C: drive using the GUI "Format" dialog. It probably won't let you do it from cmd.exe either, but I don't have the balls to test that theory.;-)
Probably because it's not so much an extension as a hack to work around a bug that appears on a single (?) site, and even then only for some people/some of the time. FF extensions are supposed to provide additional functionality, not fix bugs. If you can make use of the power of extensions, more power to you, but don't expect mozdev to care much.
Yeah, like anyone's ever gonna fall for that one again. ;-)
500GB? You're thinking of RAID0 then, where data is striped across disks. RAID1 is a mirror set, i.e. both disks contain identical data.
Yes and we all know how the BSD and KHTML hate it when other people use their code. Oh, wait.
I find your idea intriguing and would like to purchase half a kilo of whatever it is you're smoking.

Now THAT'S insightful, I WONDER why NOBODY else even THOUGHT of THAT? ;-)
Regardless, when you're talking 1990 through 1999, 1993 does not fall in the half described as "late".

I have a PowerShot A95 and it supports only PTP, not USB mass storage. So does the A85, according to Google.
It's not an urban legend. South African banknotes also have this feature, as of Feb 2005.
1. The FSF sells Linux? When did that happen?
2. It's GNU/Linux, you insensitive clod!

Dear AC
You don't have a clue how portage works.
I suppose nvidia-kernel, openoffice-bin, etc. don't exist either?
Sandra Bullock as Lenina Huxley in Demolition Man.

Lenina Huxley: Transfer of bodily fluids? Do you know what that leads to?

Damn, I guess now Deep Blue will need to find a new friend to play with?
Yes, NT was their precursor.
I agree. The AC ahead of me seemed to hold up GPL as some sort of crucifix that prevented scenarios like that.
GPL + True dictator = much greater chance of code fork
