I had a little luck using atmega644, enc28j60, MagJack and an SD-card to create a webserver (I only tested it over LAN)...
On software side I used:
uip (tcp/ip stack)
a modified version of mmc from Procyon AVRlib
Tiny FatFS
A modified enc28j60 driver from Procyon AVRlib
I can see that Procyon AVRlib has a IDE/ATA driver too. I've never tested it and don't know if it works... But if it does it should be a pretty simple project.
If it's something you want to play with there's a working uip port for atmega in this SVN repository: http://code.google.com/p/avr-uip/
But as others mentioned I don't think a hundred 20-300GB disk are worth much... Storage costs next to nothing today, just take a look at Amazon S3.
I'd imagine that it'd be a lot easier and cheaper, both in terms of hardware and power consumption, to buy bigger disks.
I Denmark, where I happen to live, the largest ISP created a child pornography filter at DNS level a long time ago...
Later it was determined by law that all ISP should obey a common filter... I think it's the police who decides which sites to block.
I don't mind the idea of block child-porn, it's already a crime to possess and distribute it... And for good reason...
However I don't like that the police gets the block sites as an administrative task. In perfect world we should prosecute the distributors, but because of their geographical location that's not possible.
So all we can do is to block them, but the determination of whether or not a site should be blocked should not be an administrative task for the police or bot written by the police. I think every single site should become a court case, then you could prosecute the owners, if the don't show up at the court you could condemn them in absence of court...
That would be a pretty simple way to make it right... Having a NGO or a police officer administratively decide what to block and what's not is way to dangerous.
This happened ages ago in Europe, because of energy taxes... That raised the gas prices so high that people buy environment friendly cars...
In Denmark you get a discount for the registration fee if your car is environment friendly... And in Denmark the registration fee is generally 200% of the cars value...
This is good as it drives environment friendly development. But you Americans obviously don't care about environment.
By the way, fuel prices in Denmark is a lot higher than that of yours, today a liter gasoline in Denmark costs 12 DKK, that equal to 9,44 USD â gal.
Regulation of the free marked is needed, because you Americans are very late in the game for a better environment... - Irresponsibly late, not something to be proved of!
7) Which country produces the largest share of total world manufacturing output?
a. China b. Japan c. Germany d. France e. US It might be relevant to measure this per citizen instead...
With corporations with more money in the bank than the GDP of many small nations, I think its time we start treating them as governments too and have some sort of restriction on how they behave. FYI, war on cooperations is called a communistic revolution:)
- Not that I don't think it a good idea...:)
I'm all for the free market, but when corporations behave like governments and as de facto monopolies then they either need to be regulated or dissolved into smaller yet competing bodies. I think a free market needs to be regulated to remain free... But you Americans doesn't seam to get that...
You start yelling communist as soon as anybody starts talking about socialism and government involvement...
but when corporations behave like governments and as de facto monopolies then they either need to be regulated or dissolved Off topic, but it's quite funny how you Americans like to regulate and dissolve foreign governments...:)
I hate to say it... but I don't think an appeal from Denmark is comming...
I live in Denmark, and do read Danish... Usually I'm not reading local tech-news, however I've been reading a little from various Danish news sites and judging from the wording there I don't think you should expect an official appeal.
Also as "spectrokid" says in a comment below you I quote:
this country is a notorious Microsoft bitch
The quote you have from the article is not translated correctly in Danish it says:
Jacob Holmblad får klagen direkte, fordi han har en fod i hver lejr," forklarer Morten Kjærsgaard til Computerworld. The correct translation would be
Jacob Holmblad receives/gets the complaint directly, because he has a foot in each camp," explains Morten Kjærsgaard to Computerworld He doesn't say that he'll appeal directly. I fact he's quoted for saying that he'd bring the complaint to ISO, at the end of the article.
(I'm no legal scholar, but here's my take)
For example, say I had a picture of someone being beaten up. Also say that this picture had no artistic or political value. Possession of this (using the above reasoning) implies that I have created demand for the picture. Probably depends on why the guy was beaten up... If he was beaten to entertain you, then YES possession of it should be illegal, probably also is...
Why isn't any media (that has no political or artistic value) depicting a crime considered illegal? Again the criminal didn't do the crime just to get on TV, if so, and given that you could prove he was paid or rewarded by other means to do a crime it should probably also be illegal... And again probably is... In the sense that media encouraged a criminal act...
Reputation for stability among whom? Gnome users?;-) Seriously, I've been using KDE for years and never had any serious stability problems. You're probably right about that... But most distros today focuses on Gnome and therefore Gnome often feels better integrated and thus more stable than KDE...
I remember using Kubuntu and some of the dialogs would fit on my 1024x768 screen so I could click ok...:)
I don't know about the exact formulation of US law, but where I come from copyright is something that is granted, not claimed.
Meaning you've own the copyright on everything you write/create, unless you explicitly says otherwise.
Don't be naive. The problem is simply worse for Windows because windows is the most heavily used OS.
You're right... Numbers matters and attacking windows gives a better return of investment...
BUT, on Linux the distributions are responsible and capable of patching exploits. On windows that job is done by the anti virus vendor, who creates an application that looks for code that takes advantage of a known exploit... Tell me which model do you is best...
If the day comes and linux is seriously targeted (never mind it's superior security system) linux users are much better protected because they already have a fixing model that works way better than, than that of windows...
"About two hours ago, Microsoft announced that it will update Office 2007 to natively support ODF 1.1, but not to implement its own OOXML format.
I almost thought Microsoft went good... but then it came:
Not until Office 14 is released (no date given so far for that) will anyone be able to buy an OOXML ISO-compliant version.
But they had me there for a moment... Just for 2 secound I actually thought they were going to do something good - without a ulterior motive...
But they're still implementing OOXML in the future...
As far as I remember the Polish only broke an early version of the enigma... But I guess it's a long and complex story...
But yes, the Polish guys doesn't always get the credit they deserve...

I think the big difference is that today we already have a network infrastructure... To built a new one when one is already in place is just waste of time and money...
Just look at how long time it takes to move to IPv6, yes I know there's a lot of other issues regarding that...
Forcing users to deal with a UI that cannot be configured at all is not the way it goes in todays programming. I disagree... Well to some extent... Power users loves all features... But for some users it's just got to work at be stable...
Now I know most linux users are rather computer literate...
Personally I'd also like to have such an option... But on the other hand I've come to like gnome (and associated apps) because you don't have to read 3 pages of settings to find out exactly where you change the tab-indent size in a simple text editor...
Though I must admit that in the end I prefer to have all the options... But it's not good for everybody... And I respect the developers decision to try and keep their app as simple as possible, and leave out all the ridiculous useless options that only one or two cares to change.
If there was 1,700 email it was probably a dummy account... If the developer wanted the mails, then why would he hardcode the password to the email account in his program, when he just as easily could have send the emails to the email account without logging into it, this would have been safer from package sniffers...
That said... I agree that this is just yet another reason NOT to used closesource software...
In a communist society you wouldn't be paid anymore than everybody else does for doing whatever they do!
In a communist society people would do what they like and that would be their incentive...
Seriously, semi-communism is anything but full lifetime support, that's more likely to happen in a capitalistic society...
Though I don't think liberalsocialism (Or semi-communism as you may call it) and capitalism have different views on imaginary property.
That said I agree that it's not sane to give people money for songs they wrote 50 years ago... Copyright already lasts far too long - IMO...
Same goes for patents. Actually I wouldn't mind extending copyright to eternity and have software patents, if they where granted on a case to case basis, where the copyright holder or patent applier would have to prove that granting some imaginary property is needed to make the investment payback with a fair interest...
As far as I'm aware D-Bus is a message passing bus for interprocess communication... not a object binding library.
I think the main difference, in terms of approach, is that D-Bus can't communicate with libraries, but with running applications or daemons. Am I right?
I hate to bring it to you, but copy/paste of either settings, applications or both... Is NOT a good idea!!!
And installing a new app usually doesn't require compiling if your linux distribution is supported!
Most times you'll find it in the package-manager, which is one of the killer features linux has that windows doesn't.
Also one of the reasons why modern linux distributions doesn't require antivirus. On Linux systems security issues are usually fixed by the distribution maintainer, whereas windows requires that user to install a third party antivirus application that scans all network traffic for known virus'.
(Okay, it's along time since I was on windows, but is my description of an antivirus system wrong?)
And by the way tell me which system is it that's defective by design?
They aren't as far as I remember from earlier the discussions the Danish childpornography filter is also implemented as a DNS only filter...
But if they do block the IPs it's just a matter of getting a dynmic IP (Joke)... But multiple IPs would do, they just change every day... no problem, just make sure the old IPs still redirect, so users of cached DNS resolution isn't left out...
Sure they could, but they wont... Danish ISPs are amateurs... They wont to think right.
As far as I'm aware you could just circumvent it using openDNS...
I don't have tele2, but as I've heard it they've just removed it from their DNS servers...

Gasoline emits a lot of dangerous particles, we'd also like those out of the air too...
