Knowing their generosity when it comes to be able to land something on other peoples heads, I would say: YES! You are the lucky winner of a crashing ISS.
Oh, just wait till the poles of the earth reverse will you, than you have the Aurora. The space shuttle fireballs are restricted to northern hemisphre only, but maybe the chinese are willing to let some of their equipment spin out of control so you get a fireball at the southern hemisphere too (I know, china is still on the northern too, but still a bit closer to the south, so maybe you just get lucky).
Meteors: Just wait, there must be one which will hit the south one day again, you have Ayers rock just to remind you of a really good fireball.
Yep, and with that weird enough the world economy. The rest of the economies of the world seem to lack self confidence. I know only one economy which got out of the last crisis in such a way that they do not care anymore: Indonesia. 95% of their trade is internal, only 5% export dependent. And they are aware of their relative small dependency on export and foreign currencies.
Most other countries are not aware or trade to much in US$ instead of their own currency, giving them less confidence or even have companies which go broke once the US$ comes to low . This last one since their costs are in local currency, and their sales in US$, ergo lower $ means price in local currency is lower, profits change into losses, company has to raise its prices but feels it can not do that, companie goes broke if this takes to long. This is even with small sales to the US, but just because of the use of the US$. The Euro has not been able to help a lot here as second large currency, and the euro countries really lack the confidence in their currency to survive a crisis.
A biological virus adapts to its environment too, a worm too, so why would the digital variant not adapt. And since the main platform clearly suffers from an immune deficiency syndrom, just kept alive by their doctors and creators by means which are always to late to stop the newest infection but just on time to save most patients, it is pretty easy for the virusses to stay alive, and adapt to a point where the immune system will completely fail.
Have plants, but the air will stay to thin to breath anyway. Harvest oxygen from outside air to live under domes, or hope to find that alien air making machine buried under a mountain (to be activated by Arnold only).
THat would give a trade war with the US a nice start, so I would not promote that option. Illegal is not correct either, but just some demands before they can sell it in Europe like no more disabling tactics, a browser which is not so prone to exploits and which follows standards, demands like that?
Progress is still there too. At this moment parents in some countries (Japan, and some in the US) track where there kids are by knowing where the cellphone of the kid is.
Sex offenders and some other criminals get ankle braces with GPS tracking so they can be followed everywhere. The last can easily be combined with an RFID scanner so you know if a person is close to the criminal. Darn, I should patent this one, because it is a "good" idea.
Tried wine for the tax program, it works almost completely, except the drop downs in which you need to make selections, so back to my one windows which came with my laptop (darn, I have a legal version)
It just took a few years after the chips became usuable for inside a creature to become compulsary for pets in several countries around the world. The people did not object of a chip put in the animal for identification purposes. The chips in anti theft (vehicle tracking) are a second example were there are no objections but every movement of a vehicle, and with potentially a person, can be traced. People do not object to this either.
Now just imagine the following: There is a way to track sex offenders with this chip, reaction of the public: Do it now (the discussion is already going on!)
Imagine the following small addition: If my kid has such a chip, we can always check where it is, or if it gets kidnapped by the previous sexoffender, the first critical hours can be used much more efficient to find the kid, parents reaction: I want such a chip in my kid, it will make it much safer for the kid.
Be assured, once this discussion starts going, the people who read Big Brother & some other books by the angry young men already lost this discussion and can just apply for your own chip next time you want the travel inside the country or abroad.
To take trash back instead of important results is a sign of mistrust. It is for a part ofcourse not really trash (like researchers might want their stuff back) but still, me no like.
Cheapo RAID hardware crashes your system once a disk crashes, but it keeps the data alive (sort of). Software RAID is then just as good (System crashes with disk failure, but the data is alive after reboot).
And he clearly did not install linux since there is the 2.2/2.4/2.6 kernel, does not understand the 30 years more unix experience and the fact that in the past before unix became more secure hackers used to target that more too.
Also to love a company who prefers to keep making a large profit over fixing the problems which they have in their product, and the fact that this is only possible in the software world, does not seem to bother this writer.
Then again it is a column. These people usually write about soccer or surfing, so to get an educated view on it is most likely too much for him anyway.
But for the tubes to work, they have to be hooked up correctly, that does not seem garanteed with this method. For the coating to work, it "just" has to be uniform (Not to easy either).
Yep, but that is washing of the photosensitive coating, and adding a new coating. That is just a global layer for throw away purposes. This is using the coating to stay behind at very specific locations. It looks very different to me since the tubes are premade components in this case which they do place on the chips, instead of having the base material and etching away layers of it.
And yes, a certain percentage breaks in the proces, and a manufacturer even rates it fabs according to how much breaks (with the same base materials, some labs can perform better, also in the long run)
What is complete and utter bollocks: The idea for a backup, the backup method, what??? You did not have to give up your moderation for being unclear. Does it matter what method is suggested? Just the fact that they could have limitted the damage in an easy way counts.
So you have nanotechnology in use, but for a production application you will use the technology by just dipping the, in this case computerchips, into the liquid, instead of carefully placing everything on the chip how it should be.
Suppose this works because there are hooks on the chip on which the nanotubes get stuck. How do you know that two opposing hooks attach to the correct same nanotube, and not to the wrong nanotube, or to two nanotubes with no connection at the other end at all.
I think this works nice in a lab where you only measure certain performance parameters from the use of nanotubes, but that a real chip will not work with this method.
Pure nanotubes work better: That is to be expected based on the properties of a nanotube (guessing here). I think an assembling method to place the nanotubes so you are sure they are at the correct place, is a better direction for this research than a huge chip dipping facility. If they want to do the last they will have to get a license from Pringles anyway, they have the best dipping shape for chips.
If these disks are in a RAID configuration, which would be nice for the customers data safety, a dd is a very good option, since you can just get some similar disks (preferably the same) and make the copy that way. Ofcourse with a bit larger budget than the costs for dd you could do this online with for example an LVM snapshot and copy that with a backup tool.
If they just decided to copy the disks so they would have had limitted downtime. Downtime=How long it takes for dd take to make a bit by bit copy of the drive depends on the size, use multiple machines to do one drive per machine, so it goes as fast as possible.
That would have made them make the jump of the previous posts and still have limitted impact.
So a beta release of your software goes out to about 500.000 beta testers & developers, and and up in the hands of concept virus writers within about a week after releasing it?
So your group of testers is not 100% trustworthy and to write a new concept virus only takes 1 week (including the "learning curve" on the new shell environment?).
Yes, and they follow the GPL, YAST2 is opensource under GPL, so the only thing they want to do is turn it over to the community. I think debian will get more followers this way, and Suse will loose. I use suse a lot, megapatch it myself, but this way it is getting less and less attractive.
That is a whoppping amount of memory (-:. I know that problem, but I thought it got less with the newer versions, and mainly shows when java plugin is used (can get the system to a grinding halt).
You can help in the following way: Instead of your time, you can use a small bonus for the person who solves the problem. That way you and the community both benefit from it.

Linspire has a nice update service which might be more attractive than the free update services from ubuntu.
