  1. So... on Michael Dell says Linux Server Sales are Up · · Score: -1, Troll

    So no "The Year of Wide Open Windows on Servers" then?

  2. Re:Feline body temperature?? on Inside Nvidia's Testing Facilities · · Score: 1

    I have gf6800. Once when I was gaming fan died. When I exited from game, I only had warning that my card can be overheating. Indeed in control panel there was 120*C. And shutdown was set to 138.

  5. Re:Tech issues and socio-political issues. on Japanese Stealth Fighter Announced as 'Return of the Zero' · · Score: 4, Insightful

    But the cold hard truth is that the free world does need to be defended and often fought for.
    Yet, for some strange reason it looks like those free countries are being gradually less free. Like cameras on every crossing, federal agencies can spy on you whenever they want. Of course everything is done to fight with terrorism and to maintain freedom. It is one big propaganda now. I've seen one program on discovery about the newest weapons USA have. And one thing struck me. USA doesn't have enemies anymore. They fight only terrorists. Every new weapon (like sniper rifle shooting cal 15 rounds over 1.5km) is made to fight with terrorists. Terrorists want for other countries to be less free and to be scared. It looks like they have already won.

    If he was in Barcelona on vacations, then he have good alibi. He probably spend some time there, buyed something with his credit card, some people have seen him. He left too many traces of being there, so he have proof of being innocent. Then police would have to PROVE he was not in Barcelona when crime happened.

    "You're box is trying to root all the other boxes in the cages"
    They're imprisoning linux servers in cages? Those bastards... Information wants to be free, not in the cages. Please think of the servers.
  8. Re:CSIRT is dying on Chinese Security Site Under New Kind of Attack · · Score: 1

    if you got some adware I'm sure you are the one to be blamed somehow
    But HOW? As I said, first running of IE on fresh install after automatic updates and leaving computer overnight. On previous installations there were no adware at first, only after some time. So this was a test to check if it got there by itself. No one other than me had access to this computer. So windows 2003 is TOTALLY not secure (by default). I don't say it's less or more secure than apache+linux, but I have yet to have some virus on my slackware.
  9. Re:CSIRT is dying on Chinese Security Site Under New Kind of Attack · · Score: 1

    Yeah. I still remember my first time installing 2003. After installation I have downloaded all patches with autoupdate. Next day I have run IE first time and there was already some adware on it. So it is NOT secure.

  10. Re:Anyone that distributes Linux to the masses on Major Linux Hardware Donor Is a CNN "Hero" · · Score: 3, Insightful

    There are people needed on every front. On fighting mountaintop mining AND fight for reactors. With Noguchi, maybe nobody wants to pick up trash? Would you pick up trash? Rutugarama does what he can. There are other people which care for other biodiversity pieces. One man can't do anything for everyone, he must care of what he can.

  11. Re:Cons and wishful thinking on '30 Year Laptop Battery' is Unscientific Myth · · Score: 1

    It took ONLY 13 years. But computers have consistently been improving by factor of 2 every about 2 years and you get used to it. By a factor of two IS "order of magnitude" but with base of two, not 10 or more. But indeed it isn't revolutionary.

    They will just ignore it. If on the other hand YOU had such mail in your mailbox, you would be in some prison for long time.

  13. Re:Official Steve Jobs Response on Class-Action Lawsuit Over iPhone Locking? · · Score: 1

    Yes, it's the same situation here with phones. People altered software, so it no longer looks like apple thinks it looks. They don't have obligation to support your custom software (or your custom transmission in the car).

  15. Re:We'll pay in the end on The Dirty Business of Assembling WiMAX Spectrum · · Score: 1

    Or do you really think that, when these companies save a buck, they pass the savings on to you? Only if they have competition. But: Two companies are NOT competition. It's oligopoly.
  16. Re:Official Steve Jobs Response on Class-Action Lawsuit Over iPhone Locking? · · Score: 1, Informative

    But did they do something illegal? When you alter your phone in a way not supported by company, you lose your warranty. I don't understand all the fuss with iPhone. There are better phones out there, but somehow this one is from Apple therefore it must be "the one to bring them all and in the darkness bind them". Now you have Apple stuck in your throat.

  17. Re:Why should I use this rather than SQL? on Jon Udell on the Nerd's Spreadsheet · · Score: 2, Funny

    Because there is no need for the user to write code themselves, this allows for sophisticated data analysis without assistance from IT
    Do you know what that means? Us techies will no longer be needed and we'll be disposed. Just like techie::destroy(); !

    They have "PPremium servers". In normal conditions 4 sims run on a 4 core machine. With premium servers they run only one sim on such machine. There are also slow, discount servers which run 8-16 sims on a 4 core machine. This crashing is just from bugs which are just everywhere in SL.

    an animated policeman turns up on the screens once in a while to remind people that they are being watched.
    Just like in Poland in 1981 when there was warlike state. When you tried to phone somewhere instead of normal signal you heard "This call is controlled. This call...".

    Please, read parent carefully: "Companies like Palm who made small touchscreen devices, looked into the future, predicted the iPhone and copied the concept years before Apple did it first". So is this still +5 insightfull, or rather +5 funny?
