We're running one DC and our Exchange server on Server 2012, and I haven't had any problems with the AD and Exchange management tools yet. Maybe there are some features that are unsupported, by the big ones I use; DNS, DHCP, AD Computers and Users, GP Management, Event Viewer and Exchange console seem to work alright.
If I'm going to use a shell-based operating system, I'll use one of the *nixes. Powershell is a bloated monster and is most definitely not an advertisement for Windows Server.
For the moment I do all my server, AD and Exchange admin on my Windows 7 workstation. What fills me with dread is the eventuality at the Group Police Management app will become partially useless as Microsoft continues monkeying around with ADMX formats. This seems to be a favorite tactic, to cripple management tools of older versions of Windows so you're forced to either remote into the newer servers or upgrade your workstation OS.
Because all those scientists working on climate change are incapable of recognizing bad data, but some AC on fucking Slashdot is a fucking uber genius who can.
Fuck pal, do you think I'm that stupid? Grow the fuck up. The universe is not dictated by your ideological need to deny science. Babies and halfwits do that. Adults accept reality.
What happens when the industrial nations' own food supplies are severely impacted? You seem to believe that the industrialized world has some magic pill that it can swallow to make them invincible to desertification, rain belt shifts and the like.
Why, are exact numbers important? If I have a chunk of uranium in front of me, and I can't point to each individual atom and state when it will decay, does that make radioactive decay wrong?
Is this what you're left with, moving the goal posts to impossible places that no theory, no matter how comprehensive and accurate, could hope to provide an answer to, and then say "See, I knew you were wrong?"
You're like the Creationists I used to debate. Flaming morons who would say things like "If you can't show me a video of a fish evolving into land animal, evolution is wrong!"
Warmer temperatures mean more desertification and changes in rain belts. Try to imagine large parts of the American grain belt suddenly becoming a lot more difficult to irrigate. The US midwest agricultural system is built on borrowed water and borrowed time.
1. Proof is for liquor and mathematics. 2. There is a large body of data and evidence contained in a vast number of published papers and reports. If you are incapable of reading them, that's your problem.
This is the basic position a pseudo-skeptic like yourself takes, right? That if a large group of scientists say "X is harmful, potentially very harmful", you're response is that they're just trying to scare you, and you can safely ignore what they have to say and keep on doing X.
If you watch it frame by frame, you can see the scenes of wookie porn that was edited in to create the subliminal desire to mate seven foot tall hairy things.
You name me any operating system available at a reasonable cost that allows me take instant snapshots, move to new hardware without downtime, I'll agree with you. As it is, virtualization HSS been around for decades now.
As someone who uses KVM VMs, I see a number of advantages:
1. More efficient use of resources. A dedicated server usually idles a lot, and those cycles do nothing. Running guests allows empty cycles to be put to work. 2. Load balancing and moving resources around is a lot easier. Have a busy host, move a guest to an idle one. 3. Hardware abstraction. This is the big one for me. Guests are no longer tied to specific hardware, and I can build a new VM host and move guests to it a helluva lot more painlessly than I could with an OS installed directly on hardware. 4. Backup options. Coupled with functionality like logical volumes, I can make snapshots for backup or testing purposes with incredible ease.

A year? People have been telling Microsoft Metro was a catastrophe since they released the public betas.

But but... it's "on a mobile device"... That makes it totally different!
What studies have falsified it? JEsus fucking christ, pal, some fucking blogger you frequent doesn't constitute a "study".

Is there anywhere in North America that you can even buy flood insurance any more?

Wow, do the pseudo-scientific types have mod points today. Mod away, I've got karma to burn.
I call it a report written by climatologists. You know, SCIENTISTS...
I get it. It tells you things you don't want to hear, so you have this need to cast aspersions on it.
You could, you know, if you felt like, stop watching television read the report, and other associated materials.
I know, it's a lot of work, and it's just a lot easier to repeat what you've heard.
Indeed. I was modded down, so I'm assuming C'thulu has finally got mod points.
Because the first thought when confronted with a troubling scientific report is to consult an economist...
Because scary reports must logically be false.

America! Fuck Yeah!

You could, oh I dunno, not use this service.
If you bought such a map, providing you didn't muck it up, in most places you could seek a refund.
There are over two centuries of 1st Amendment jurisprudence that backs the notion that private interests have very wide latitudes in free expression.
Hell, the phone system we're about to retire runs an embedded DOS variant.
And what percentage of XP users do you suppose are running such specialized equipment that something like Linux Mint would not install and run on?
