Well, basic ELEMENTS do disappear. This is what we call a half-life, yes? Eventually entropy demands that substance be destroyed because not enough energy exists to maintain the state, right?
You still are in the wrong direction, Arctic cold.
Let's take a machine with 4 VMs. only 2GB RAM. Running camfrog video servers.
Only about 20MB will be used for the same program - everything else is a constant video stream and thus can't be swapped out to a disk cache.
With Camfrog, anything higher than 300 video streams will max out that 2GB RAM.
4 VMs all streaming that many video streams with only 2GB of physical memory WILL NOT WORK.
Run a bunch of realtime programs as intensive as a real time thousand+ video stream server. You will notice overprovisioning of your hardware or bandwidth RAPIDLY.
No, I know EXACTLY what the issue is, having called my hosting provider for my video chat server. They just upgraded to this sort of management system, and my video server had been lagging horribly almost since the moment of implementation. And this would explain it - I've been moved to a shared server with overprovisioned hardware.
Sorry you're not experienced enough with realtime applications to know when something's fucking with your system.
Not when this is apparently the exact same technology being used to run multiple heavy-traffic video chat servers on the same physical silicon. No wonder people on Camfrog are complaining about their servers lagging so hard, if this is the kind of thing we're paying for when we're actually expecting physical hardware.
If you managed to catch the double speak throughout the whole post, you won. Judging by your question, you got hints of it, at least. The rest of these ill-educated idiots, on the other hand...
When can we just effectively get what we pay for? This would explain the sudden jump in Intel-based Camfrog servers with a higher offering of hardware.
This effectively means people can now lie about the hardware they're leasing out to you in a data center. They say you're getting 4GB, you're actually getting 1.5GB of RAM.
Our internet is oversubscribed, our processors are getting there, and now RAM?
When are the designers of this stuff going to just build the fucking hardware instead of trying to lie about it?
"And apparently -elitist- nerds. The most ridiculous type."
My fault I have a higher education than you and am the director of research for a multi-national corporation. Elitist nothing, we simply KNOW. If you call that elitist, you'd better educate yourself. Otherwise, you'll be stuck on this planet while the rest of us colonize space.
Toss in a 12v LED panel and power it plus fans from the 12v lines. I have a nepenthes growing in the case, now, and the drive bay section holds all the wireless monitoring equipment.
Anybody that pays attention to 4chan recently knows they had to implement captcha due to a massive spamflood of infected morons. recaptcha got busted thanks to someone in/g/ who leaked the vulnerability in the sound system for reCAPTCHA, and the whole site was again inundated with spam, though not to the degree as the original spam attack.
"That's true, but system updates can pretty much overwhelm anywhere a rootkit like system would attempt to hide, and users almost always install updates."
This might be useless if the 3G/4G networks gets blasted by a ton of zombied iPhones and updates can't get to the phone so easily. Or possibly you could use this to disable the network entirely and essentially brick it until reset to default.
not as fast as typical RAM but with 10^8 R/W cycle estimate (low-ball) I'd be quite happy to have one. I've bene screaming about the tech for a while on slashdot.
I used to work for an ISP. I can do all of that MYSELF. No staff needed.
I ACTUALLY DO IT. Right now there's development on a multi-video monitoring station for each of our hydroponic tiers.
If you think it takes that much experience and knowledge, you're a fool. I've been at it since I was 16 broadcasting with a 10FPS webcam at 252x144 resolutions from my school's LAN.
That's easier access. Think about that for a moment. 500 physical attendees at so much a pop or MILLIONS of online attendees at a lower cost and still making more money?

"No, it is stored in chemical bonds, not in the form of matter"
Not entirely true. Take phosphorous. That's an element all too easy to utterly destroy once in its trivalent state.
"Matter does not disappear,"
Well, basic ELEMENTS do disappear. This is what we call a half-life, yes? Eventually entropy demands that substance be destroyed because not enough energy exists to maintain the state, right?
Ahh, the episode where some other alien species actually took over the Enterprise-D and posed as a Commander of the crew.
Finally, a red shirt integral to the plot that dies!
Does relativity actually address moving without moving? last I checked, it didn't.

Nepenthes = carnivorous pitcher plant. No risk of spilled liquid because all electronics are above any potential water level.
Will a picture be enough detail?

"there's really nothing involved skill-wise in being a CEO or director of sorts."
Okay, sir. YOU grow plants using NO LIGHT AT ALL.
Can't do that? Well, I guess my position isn't without its merits, then.
You really do show how ignorant you are.
We went first because the rest of you were too cowardly.

Some of us may need that tap in mid-life. Seeing how a majority of my family passed away, I know I'm certainly getting the test done.

"Rub one out and it'll help you sleep."
Yep, I'll get back to you on that once the ADRENALINE wears out.
We have this magical thing called meta-moderation, where we can review all moderated comments and reassign their ranking.
they made single-stick + terminator blank pairs. I ever only had one RAMBUS RAM stick.

I go there so I can mock the Geek Squad about how very little they truly know.

So many attack vectors, so little time.
"So you're not going to see a system with a 1:1 ratio of RAM and flash."
Sir, I have 4GB RAM and 4GB SD Flash in my system.
What's this nonsense you speak of?
