Your enterprise environment must not be hitting its drives very hard.
Where SSDs is in disk operations that are usually lagged out by seek times; a big unwieldy database that gets a lot of writes and no downtime, for instance, is happiest when it lives on a striped SSD array.
Coincidentally, this is exactly the type of workload which is most likely to shorten a magnetic drive's life.
Since I think GP's intent was to inappropriately take its parent post seriously for comic effect, I think your "whoosh" misses the point entirely and I have no choice but to whoosh it....Whoosh.

I guess it depends on whether they're planning on submitting an RFC, or just creating a new Sekrit Routing Protocol that only Unca Sam's buddies will know how to implement.
I dearly hope the DHS is at least smart enough to get this one right.
Cops are allowed to extract blood without your permission when you're unconscious?...Without ascertaining that you aren't from one of those blood-is-sacred religions?
Awesome. The next step is selling your invention to your local law enforcers and convincing them to adopt it as a source of evidence. Good luck with their testing procedures!
But the recent push to drive the BAL lower and lower makes me think people are trying to get Prohibition back.
That only follows if you believe driving is a right, rather than a privilege. This isn't a restriction on drinking (which is an inalienable right) but on driving (which already requires a license.)
I know it's terrible form to reply to one's own post, but let me just come out and suggest it:
A collaborative, and perfectly anonymous or pseudonymous code project.
Wicherski, Werner, Leder and SchlÃsser must be protected from punishment for their fine work for the good of humanity. So, informed by their disclosures, I say an open source counter-worm ought to be developed from scratch. To protect those working on it, the collaboration model would have to be a little bit 4channy.
The downside to anonymity (As our good friend the Obama/Library/Poop guy shows us) is that it means people don't have to act accountably. There would probably be tons of ebil coders, seeing a wide-deployment worm accepting code contributions, trying to sneak their own obfuscated backdoors into the code.
But the upside to a system like this is transparency. There are still plenty of eyes on the code, and plenty of coders to call shenanigans on one another.
Well, the Storm net depends on deniability. Whoever is directing the zombies, they needn't reveal anything about themselves to the botnet, or connect from a particular place The command just needs to find its way into the wild.
Naturally, the cure is going to have to exploit the same dynamic. If we're as careful as the botnet designers were, retribution would be basically impossible.
That is really weird to me. As far as I know, a "Keep out" sign has legal force regardless of whether there's someone there to ask you to leave.
Shouldn't a "no X allowed" sign be legally equivalent to a "KEEP OUT - oh and people who aren't carrying X are granted special permission to enter" sign?
What you are saying is that if a corner sandwich shop put a sign up that said, "No Niggers Allowed" that it would be free market that would punish them.
Maybe offensive, but hardly incorrect. Do you know anybody, white, black or otherwise, who would even consider buying a sandwich there? I imagine the free market would sink that business pretty goddamn fast.

'cause regular hard drives usually survive 5 years in an enterprise environment, yep yep.

You have summed up everything that needs to be said about this story. I'm not even going to bother reading past this comment.

I'll take your word for it. Honestly, I'm only about 40% convinced at this point that the Deep South actually exists and isn't a big, hilarious hoax.

Actually, Israelis are mostly pretty swarthy. They don't look that different from Palestinians.
These are law-abiding citizens.
Except that they enter private property in direct violation of the posted conditions for entry. IANAL, but I think that makes 'em trespassers.
Mod parent up. This is the truest thing I have ever read.

I tried to formulate a response to your question but my mind just won't go there. I'm having trouble figuring out why.
Eventually, companies must come to recognize their liabilities as liabilities, right?
