Let's see congress replace their own servers before telling the rest of us what to do.
Except replacing the servers is a waste of energe. It costs energe to make them, quite a lot.
The suggestion, quite rightly, is to take this into account when buying *new* servers, not to replace old ones and add to the problem.
It is similar to cars, which is better, sell that 20yr old banger and buy a new car, or keep the banger. In most cases, the second is the best option. It takes more net energy to create a car than that car uses in fule in it's entire existance.
Or so I heard.
I don't see those as negatives. Getting picked on, bullied, etc, teach the kid early on how to deal with these jerks in real life.
I love when people say things like this.
Why, pray tell, is school not "real life".
I don't mean to get at you personally, it is more a societal thing, but I am reminded on of the story last week, which diverted into a thread about "good Dads", all of which seem to have one thing in common: NOT treating children like sub-humans.
[i]Tough if you lose your mobile though -- you lose access to your account as well![/i][br][br]Your mobile companies must be horrid. I have had the same mobile number since I got my first phone in '98. I have been through two companies, and 5 or 6 phones, I have lost the SIM once, and had the replacemnt out in an old phone in around 3 days.
I have a wireless access point, I don't care if you use it, I can always set up QoS if I really really want to to make sure I get priority useage, or lock it down later.
How do I advertise, in a useful way, that you can use it, other than leaving it open?
Beginning to deviate from normal operation. The term is used in industrial control networks when the analysis of data from sensors and nodes or the analysis of calculated summaries derived from data begin to show a deviation trend. See industrial control network.

Hmmmm......"Begining to deviate from the normal operation in the right direction...."
Oxymoron of the day?
This isn't sold as a "You want to go out and replace all your systems with this." deal.
It's sold as, "So, your getting more office space, your re-wireing it, and you use terminal services? This is the Box you want".
Think hotels (as others have said) any sort complete rewire situation.
Oh and the really nice part, they need a custom tool (supplied) to get them out, you can have your *own* personal tool if you are buying a lot.
Try steeling my PC's now! Yeah, the TFTs can still go, but the clients are very nicely secure!
" Fact is, we live in an ever-increasingly dangerous world"
This is not a fact. This is compleatly untrue. There have been active terrorists in the world, constantly for the last 100 years.
I work no more than 1 mile from the last IRA attempt, as far as I can see it did us a lot more good than harm, but that's another matter.
Please don't say that just because they are after you now, the world is "more dangerous" maybe your part of it is, but overall, it's ticking along as normal.
In what way can these ever be "saving energy"?
The fule Cell has to be manufactured, this has to have an energy cost associated with it, hence you are still using energy, your phone is still using energy, the same amount too.
Are fuel cells more efficent than power plants? With the cost of manufacture and distribution added in?
What do you do that you actually care if anyone else sees?
Internet banking? How is that any easier to hy-jack from the local network than from the internet at large?
Your accounts files that are stored on a central server?
1) why?
2) SSH/scp?
3) Wht not just do you accounts on a wired PC...
I am the exact opposite of this. When I get a wireless router it will be specifically open, with rules on my (linux) router that say who can get at what resources. Why shouldn't my friends be able to get at the internet when they are at my house, and happen to have their laptop?
Hell with trafic shaping I can even make sure my traffic gets priority over everything else...
Just remember to replace the paint you use, and to burn off your space when you are done. It might not be wide enough for the next person. This was my first thought too.
"The Outer Limits" sometime between '95 and '98. Between 9pm and 10pm on BBC 2.
A specific episode about a man and his android helper.
She drops everything and stands there for a few seconds.
That help?
"We ran more than 250 experiments, improved the facility over 3 years and discussed the validity of the results for 8 months before making this announcement. Now we are confident about the measurement," says Tajmar, who performed the experiments and hopes that other physicists will conduct their own versions of the experiment in order to verify the findings and rule out a facility induced effect.
I vote not enough testing:)
Why not get your working driver, and email the company asking if they would release a driver written by you in any form.
Then negotiate either payment, or open-ness.
Do you unplug your dvd player/tv/set-top box/VCR when not in use?
Isn't against the termas and conditions of use to that for most set-top boxes?
Do you raelly have no little red lights in your house when you go to bed?
I know I do.
I bought a dvd player obver the weekend, it consumes 0.1w in standby mode. Not a lot, not even an LED, but multiply that by the few million that are plugged in right now.....
Ok, so I run a network. Lets say I want to move my internal network to IPv6.
Where do I start? What do I do? How do I check that my switches/routers are capable of it?
So I only have 100 pcs on my network, I don't care!
This is not a rehtorical question, I have googled.

I take it it is possible to recieve calls from yourself, on your own phone, whilst simultainiously making another outgoing call then?
Very Well done.
now please learn to read.
Good Point :)
Done from the next time the router reboots, since I don't want to disturb the better-half's browsing.

Just keep a hold of it, and freeze it.

Tagged Icaland, the boring becoms redundant. As does "mad". At least judging from the one and only icelandic person I have ever met.

A guy named Gothe said a few hundred years ago "he who cannot draw upon 3000 years is living from hand to mouth" That about sums it up.
It has Bluetooth....does that help?
Or use Lynx, that fulfills both criteria doesn't it? :)
