3D didn't fail because of price or content. 3D failed because there are a LOT of people (myself included) who not only dislike 3D, but get headaches from watching it. Heck, I won't go to a movie if it's only showing in 3D, and have gone out of my way to let movie theater operators know. I'm not trying to bag on people who like it, but it literally prevents me from attending theaters.
I hope to god they both don't walk around willfully ignorant. The reason THE tea party doesn't switch sides is because they refuse to actually consider anyone else's point of view. It's their way or the highway, compromise has no seat at the table. That works brilliantly in the military and... the military. Everywhere else it turns out, human beings have to learn to compromise and co-operate. The alternative is war and death.
It's been so long I honestly don't recall what the reasoning was at the time. I believe it had to do with server infrastructure. At the time I don't think there was a good way to separate out traffic on the same domain (at least not when you were talking year 2000 with a shoestring budget), so they just picked up a new domain and pointed it at a new server.
This is the status quo for OCZ. I still don't understand why people are surprised. They were scamming people on memory back in 2001 - lying about the size of the company, lying about their storefront, etc. etc. etc. I was burned by them back then when they sold me faulty memory sticks, then refused to warranty them. The sad part is most of that saga was lost when hardforums broke off from hardocp.com.
1) Based on their diagrams, the CO sensor is easily replaceable.
2) CO mixes with air, I've never seen a manufacturer or study suggest you need your CO detectors at the floor. It absolutely does not "collect at the floor". In fact if nothing else it's more likely to rise as it's coming out of what is likely a hot appliance with hot airflow to spread with.
3) The old 3-wire system has no way to inform you which room the issue is coming from. It's a trade-off. You're either willing to move to the new system or not. I'm not saying that doesn't make the product a non-starter for you personally, but I think for most people willing to spend this kind of money on the product, replacing all their detectors is no big deal.
Ya, that only works when there's accountability. The system has been structured such that accountability is now gone. The general public has been talked into putting their money into 401k's. These 401k's are then used to buy large amounts of shares in publicly traded companies. Now the manager of the fund has all the power. On top of that, all the people at the top are sitting on each others boards. Why on earth would I tell Bob he's making too much money when he's on my board? I'll say he deserves a raise, he'll say I deserve a raise, and we'll both leak information to that fund manager so that we all make out like bandits. All the while, the general public is getting ramrodded without lube. Could Joe Public move their money out of that 401k? Probably, but I'm willing to bet 90% of the public isn't willing to put out that effort so long as they see the number in their account going up each quarter.
This idea that people in power will do what's best for everyone else because it's best for them is absolutely ridiculous. They'll do what makes them the most money now. Who gives a shit if the economy in America collapses when you own houses in 6 different countries and have enough money to hop on a private jet at a moment's notice to find a safe place to live?
You have support for your Buffalo because Buffalo pays dd-wrt to write them a custom version of dd-wrt. In exchange they provide dd-wrt with the info they need to create drivers for the hardware they use.
DD-WRT for all intents and purposes might as well be dead. At this point they've essentially stopped releasing updates unless you're paying for a subscription. And their last release for most hardware platforms wasn't even GA code, it was "pre-SPX".
So you didn't actually read the senate version, you just assume because it was written by democrats it must be for "pork projects"? Slashdot: where rather than attempt to gather facts, we spout political rhetoric!
None of that explains how Autism suddenly makes the person believe that blackmail is legal. There's no way he didn't know what he was doing was wrong. If he didn't think it was wrong, he would've have been contacting them anonymously.
Except for the part where they've sufficiently lobbied the government so as to make it nearly impossible for a "startup" to get into the insurance gig. You might as well tell someone if they think they can do a better job of providing internet access for a cheaper price than the incumbents, they should do so. History has proven it's ENTIRELY possible to provide a better service at a cheaper price - in a vacuum. In the current state of lobbied government officials putting up roadblocks and endless court battles that may be completely invalid, it's almost impossible.
Yes, this very judge and Oracle. I assume you've got examples of the California judges catering to patent trolls since you seem to think my response is preposterous. I'd hate to think you'd be calling me out without so much as a lick of evidence to prove your contrarian viewpoint. That would just make you an asshat.
Actually, it isn't. Filing a patent infringement lawsuit on a patent you don't own is very much not legal, which is why they tried so hard to hide that fact. So no, they likely won't get money. And the lawyer representing NPS will be lucky if he isn't disbarred.
Because waiting until 2pm makes it non-obvious unless someone is looking VERY closely. You can claim you made the trade after you found out if you time it just right. Obviously they misjudged their timing.
In a raid-z setup you can rebuild the block from parity, and if you've got raid the point is moot. I would not consider a bad block a hardware failure, that's a hardware error - bad blocks are expected behavior out of spinning rust. The allocator makes no guarantees about copies being on different spindles - it simply prefers to split blocks across vdevs if possible (but there are no guarantees it will do so, and there are many instances where it won't). If you've got multiple partitions on a single disk, it will not delineate those vdevs from vdevs on another physical drive. Furthermore if you have an entire drive die and don't have raid, your pool is going to be toast anyways, regardless of your copies setting. What matters is: COPIES IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR RAID. That's the gist of the matter and the point I was making (and thought I was rather clear about).
The code that Bonwick was working on in 2009 was when he still worked for snoracle. That code was never released, and is not something the community could ever use. Furthermore, Bonwick likely can't recreate it due to the fact his original code is owned wholly by Oracle and will not be released. Any attempt at doing so would likely result in a nice lawsuit.
I stand by my original statement that the open community has made no headway on it and this "open zfs" project won't change the needle.
How is an I/O scheduler supposed to know if the block it's currently working on is one you're about to request? Unless you've got a very consistent and sequential workload, it's EXTREMELY difficult if not impossible to predict which block you're going to want next.

Because the codebase that IOS is built on will *NEVER* support pipe. NXOS has had pipe from the beginning.
It's just genome sequencing, do the details REALLY matter?

You obviously haven't taken a look at Comcast's balance sheet if you think that $80/month is going to the studios.
It helps if you get the name right ;) Loongson.

Indeed. I wonder if the irony is lost on them.

Can you blame him? It wasn't loading.

See: Prenda Law. California judges have been laying the smack down on patent trolls recently.
