Sorry to burst your bubble but the CX1 uses ordinary infiniband as interconnect. So if you get four 1U twins infiniband from Supermicro you got the same configuration for a much lower price in 5U. You do loose the sleek case though.
Nope, a privatized sea will be fished empty then filled with trash and than be abandoned. Current market forces emphasize on making a profit as fast as possible instead of continuity. Once you made a profit you take your money and go do something else profitable with it. And you better do it fast as your life is short.
Indeed, they can claim the eminent death of slow electronics all they want. But the hard part these electronics do simply isn't possible with optics and probably won't be for a very long time. That hard part is as you say getting to the routing information and change the flow of light depending on what you find.
Basically with this light slowing material they made an optic version of a microstrip. Now if only the could make a small optic transistor.
The nice property of photons is they don't really interact with each other. The nice property of electrons is they do interact with each other. This makes light great for transport and electronics great for processing.
Sometimes I think researchers envy engineers when they claim there research will crush existing and working solutions. Or maybe they are just trying a sales pitch for funding.
a) What is the objective of you existing ? (Yeah, I know it's lame but we do things because we are here. Why did Colubus sail the Atlantic ?)
b) Earth will not be able to sustain humanity. It may stop doing so in a relatively near future or in millions of years but it will stop one day. So being prepared to take a hike and live somewhere else is probably a sensible thing to do. Getting prepared will take a long time though. Better start now.
Agreed, the price is wrong or a rip off. A few miles from my home a sea based wind park was commissioned last year.
This one with 36 turbines for 102MW has cost about 200€. So that's about $3/Watt and pretty high because building turbines in the sea is a bit more involved than on land.
What have you been smoking ? For an eye opener try the following: open a terminal and do "ping &". Close the terminal and log out. Log in as a different user and open a terminal. Do "ps ax|grep ping". Look at the result in astonishment. Things started in the background will happily continue to run if the controlling user is logged out. And as the previous poster said, if the user has access to cron or at processes can be started at predetermined times and dates. Root is only highly desirable because it will let you manipulate ALL files in a system, not just the files of one user. This gives the attacker much better possibilities of hiding his malware and make it harder to remove it.
Oooh, fun. What do you think will happen if you redirect all traffic of a segment through a single desktop PC ? And that is what you will need to do to get all conversations. Switches were not primarily invented for security but for improved performance you know. I have a hunch people will notice the performance drop. Seeing that I get an average incoming traffic of 200Mbps on a single 240 port switch stack and those are pretty normal office workers. Spotting the infected PC will be easy... it's the one with the smoking NIC;-). Besides, as said before, it won't work if your phones are in a different VLAN. And keeping the ARP tables poisoned will get bells ringing in probably all IDS's and some switches.
It could be that your ISP uses an inline proxy. That would cache all the HTTP pages, but not HTTPS since it can't decrypt those without you knowing. So the pages you see when you are browsing HTTP sites are just the local copies. A quick way to check is to see if dynamic pages still work when HTTPS site are down (find a site with the time on it or something like that)
The only problem with trains is that they take you from somewhere where you are not to somewhere you don't want to be. I want to get home from work. To use the train I first must get to the station and when I arrive I must get from the station to my home. In your example it will probably not be to difficult to get from work to a station in CA, but from a station to the middle of nowhere is gonna be a problem. A high speed train that stops every 10 miles isn't a high speed train anymore.
Since the wavelength of wireless is about 5 inch that would need to be one big tack to make the room leak. As for the window problem, chicken wire over the window would do the trick if earthed correctly.
If you see what a 12 liter scuba tank filled to 200 bar can do with a car you can imagine what a 450 liter tank at 200 bar can do. Which is what this car will need to have for 90m3 of air. Say bye bye to all windows in the neighbourhood.
If you are a network admin SSL traffic is a bitch. Normal web traffic can be scanned for malicious content with ICAP. With SSL traffic you're out of luck. Also a lot of remote access programs tunnel their traffic in an SSL connection over port 443 (cool service LogMeIn, NOT). That means if you allow encrypted web traffic you also allow people on the network to give control over their PC's to external people. I've dealed with both. Some moron downloaded an infected program of an https site, which was luckily caught by the local virus scanner. And some nitwit called the helpdesk of an ASP which took over teir desktop while he was having sensitive data on his screen. After these events we enabled SSL termination on the proxies and feed all SSL traffic to the ICAP scanner and disallow any traffic that doesn't strictly follow HTTP. If someone has traffic that must bypass these rules the can request an exception, usually this concerns shitty java applications. that was about a year ago. We were already using Bluecoat proxies, formerly known as CacheFlow.
Road going Ferraris indeed use regular fuel. A racing Ferrari, like the F1 cars, is an other thing. They use fuel which is tuned for the specific race they have to run. See http://www.formula1.com/insight/technicalinfo/11/6 46.html for some more detail. The whole analogy between fuel and memory cards doesn't make sense. Fuel is consumed but cards are used over and over again.
Even a 4 cpu cluster can be a high performance cluster. As opposed to a high availability cluster, a high performance cluster is optimized for maximum performance instead of maximum availability. The number of CPU's or performance delivered has nothing to do with it.
That's not a problem since the product they sell is not the software but the service of putting the software on a CD an shipping it to you. You still get the software for free. Compare it with Wallmart. They sell you a box with CD's with commercial software lika a game. However, if there is a bug in the game, it's not Wallmart who will be hold liable but the maker of the game.
Yup, and that is why good proxies have SSL termination. Basically an on purpose man in the middle attack. And since it's easy to add a local CA certificate to all the clients usually nobody notices it. But as admin you can read HTTPS traffic just as well als normal HTTP. We use it to scan for malware, but session tracking wouldn't be a problem either. And if you really want to you could trace content also.

Cool, they are doing video telemarketing calls now? Or did they start their conversation with "I'm a black woman" ?

Hmmm, it seems the echo's are still there...

At least he has made his final break through now...

Easy, you put it on the outside of your craft during reentry. Preferably on the heat shield.

Hmmm, on the downside there is not much preventing a coroner to do an autopsy on you to examine the cause of death.

Hmm, it is even easier since drafts for the H.323 protocol (This was the first link I googled which gave a date...) Since H.323 is based on previous standards I'm sure drafts describing this functionality before that date can be found. H.323 was the first open VoIP protocol suite to gain wide use.

But how are you gonna drive a tack a few inches wide through a wall without anybody noticing ?
Since the wavelength of wireless is about 5 inch that would need to be one big tack to make the room leak. As for the window problem, chicken wire over the window would do the trick if earthed correctly.

You will comply...

And that they are a Microsoft showcase shouldn't have to do anything with it either.
