So when you worked for you property it doesn't have to be taxed? What if you have a company that you started that made you, say, the richest man on the world, you should still pay taxes on your hard earned cash?
Thats obvious, Amsterdam is Netherlands or Holland as some other strange people call it, the rest of the country is Germany [or any other country you know that is there somewhere].
Well if you want military reliability you have to pay military prices, but me as a simple administrator are all for it, 10% of my hardware dies in the first year (well with Dell, with NEC it was more like quarter of their machines), no worry got hw support but tell that to the one who want to use it that day. But thats the trade in a market that on one side wants powerful PC's and the other side a sysadmin who wants a distributed server park with minimalistic and on stock front-ends.
Dominance, hah! Today I showed my dominance clearly, I said to her:"Now you sit down and listen! I'm the man in my house! If I want to do my dishes in my own house I'm going to do them and I'm going to do them right now! And you're not going to stop me! Heck, perhaps I'll clean the windows too!" Now that showed her! The only thing she could do is put on her lovely smile and said: "Yes dear". It clearly felt as a victory, although somehow I mistrusted her willingness to comply on my demands...
I agree that my comment is not specific enough to point out that the force I was speaking of is the energy within the velocity/mass absorbed by the recieving object. Perhaps the loss of energy is marginal and can be dismissed, but still the act of reflecting a bullet needs to get force from somewhere and that force needs energy, in whatever form. Since I don't believe that vest material can make energy out of thin air, I concluded that it was originated from the incoming bullet, since some of that energy leaves via the act of reflecting the bullet, less energy needs to be absorbed by the underlying tissue. Well this is what I thought perhaps you could point out again where I'm wrong here (I really like to know), pointers to relevant public information is welcome of course. Thanks!
Are you sure about that? Since the bullet arrives with the same force regardless if it's bare flesh, normal kevlar or the treated one, bouncing of would conclude that the energy for the reflection is gatherd from the energy of the impact, thus leaving less energy to be absorberd for the impacting object. My logic could be false, or correct if there is an alternative source of energy wich feeds the reflection of the object.
It's a dev name, the final product will be called windows server 2007 or 8 or 9 depends how long it takes (well even if it will be released in 2008 it wil still be called 2007) and ofcourse there are different editions, like web, standard, enterprise, database etc. etc.
Thats the Microsoft(r) 'X-Box Generic GUI OS Edition(tm)' for both PowerCPU (32 and 64 bit) and x86 (currently only Intel 32 bits), the running gag is that as with the normal X-Box they say it can't play games.
The thing is you are on gentle path to think different about your network topology, instead of servers doing x,y and z, you have service x, y and z. That will sneak in to you're machine naming as well, instead of big-frikking-server-doing-it-all. you got fs-01., fs-02., fs-03. distributed by say dfs. Other example are database clustering, dns, firewalls and webservers.
Now this not a revolutionaire thing, bigger networks always worked this way, but with virtualization, the bigger network can better scale to the needed performance and/or reliability. Smaller networks can achieve the same abstraction of services vs servers without the cost of it, so it actually comes down to the penny, it saves alot of them, both in hardware and power conusmption. Maintenance is (when setup right) also easier, so one admin can admin more or has more time to implement advancements (or for bonehead companies, you need less personel). For the administrator it's the difference between getting a support call of: "I can't get my files and I need them right now!" or noticing that "Hey my nagios reports that some of my distributed services are not responding anymore, better move them to another server before those clusters brakes down, but first let me get a cup of coffee"
Or in short virtualization is less money and more coffee.
Depends if you have that second computer available but no access to printers, but I'm sure that AC did all the investigation in all possibilities before posting his comment, on/. everybody does that.
Well, they could but then it's all over for Intel. Intel played the game good and well and extended their marketshare well beyond the actual quality of their organization. Everybody knew that sooner or later this would happen and the only thing they wanted is squeezing the last bit of money out of their overrated status. And that they have done that perfectly.
Now if they increase the price of their chips then it's even more reason to buy AMD instead of Intel, actually I suspect that they smarten up and even lower the prices.
Don't forget that Intel is still the market leader and they will be for a very very long time, they can reinvent themself a couple of times before they get into real problems.
Intel isn't anymore in the position to bully the market the way they where used to, so I'm very curious how they going to parade this. If they going to get back to the technology leadership mentality instead of marketleader then it could be all over for AMD even before it realy has started.

At least now I know where that attitude comes from, it started when they confused US with us ...
Aah europe, almost like it was before the first world war, how about that for improvement.
"trusted" or "feared" is actually the same, though the meaning depends on what the other party thinks on which side you are.
Another very fine example that a funny post holds more truth then something marked as insightful.
Only if you play music when you set it off, perhaps something classical like Tchaikovsky.
You came a long way since then, eh? :-)

Virtualization is both a problem and a cure for the same and different things and practical enough to be usefull

power-to-weigth? don't you mean, energy-to-productivity?

That's the stupidest password I've ever saw in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his air shield!
How about iTon B., sounds like a bad-ass rapper ;-)

Buildworld without -j; in 4 69 minuten, in df 1.4 62 minutes.
I didn't implicided that DF has better performance then FBSD4 but indeed on my boxes it actualy does, YMMV.
Well it is possible to sometimes learn something new :-) but indeed I prefer FreeBSD style ports
