Yes. I'm shocked this hasn't happened already, since this seems like a textbook instance of where the unrestricted free market should correct ignorant or malicious behavior by a bad actor. </snark>

How does svscan handle service dependencies?

The prohibition on servers has very little to do with network bandwidth. It has a lot to do with people bandwidth - overhead associated with support, security and compliance.

It's a small thing, but their binary drivers do not support kernel modesetting, so if I want to switch between X and the console it takes several seconds with a visible screen blank. Using nouveau (or anything that supports KMS) is ver

I don't understand your comment. "Doesn't design and doesn't fab" describes every ARM licensee. Also, this chip isn't going anywhere near phones or tablets. Did you look at the specifications?

Their insistence at treating their prime streaming like just an aspect of the normal purchasing view is also annoying. If I'm searching through shows, It doesn't help me to see multiple seasons of the same show 'on the shelf,

Yeah and by and large, it sucks. Until they fully decouple it from their regular cable business it's just not compelling at all. What is the point of having a nice online delivery mechanism if you're required to have the cable cha

It will be different though, and interesting to see play out. Netflix became a big deal because they provided a much better experience than the incumbent. What you're describing is not a better experience at all; It seems more likely t

Supermicro yes, and you can actually buy Intel branded servers too. We've had really good experiences with Intel dual socket 1U and 4-in-1 2U systems.

As an administrator with an admittedly smaller sample size, this lines up with my experience with the Seagate 1TB Barracuda ES.2, 15K.6/15K.7-era Cheetahs and some normal consumer Barracudas as well. All of the nearline and enterprise

re: bread patent. See here: http://www.google.com/patents/US6080436 The claims are that the heating element is set between 2500F and 4500F (claim 1b). The bread itself is held away from the element (sheets 2, 3), sep

Reading through the mailing list thread announcing this, it's clear that Nagios was never really an open project to begin with. As far as the plugins site goes - they transferred domain ownership a couple of years ago. The plugins host

Netflix doesn't work out of the box, but does work with Pipelight and a browser user-agent override. Ease of setup approaches trivial. In my experience it's stable. The rest of your complaints are valid right now . I expect the g

This came off as much more judgmental than I intended, especially towards Apple which I respect as a company and whose products I admire from a design and integration perspective. I was also not trying to belittle Apple fans or customers of

The Gigabyte BRIX has an Iris Pro-equipped model if that's something you want. In my case I wanted in-box optical and tv tuner, which eliminates the NUC stuff. There are a handful of right-sized 'htpc' mini-itx cases that ena

I'm not sure this is all the design team's fault. I remember reading an article a while back re: changes from hand-drawn manual layout to automated layout methods for the chips. The assertion was that manual layout is often better

I'm sorry that I completely ignored Apple. Although I am not sure I would consider someone buying an iMac (or any brand name prebuilt desktop system) to be an 'enthusiast.'

I just did this. Unless you're targeting something really high end with a lot of 4K and gaming, 4600 is more than enough to handle typical HTPC duties. I'd certainly look at Kaveri today instead of Haswell for HTPC if I was doing

One nitpick: it is not possible to really get Iris Pro on the desktop. The 4770R (all the R chips, actually) are FCBGA and not sold retail. Maybe the big brand guys sell some desktops with Iris Pro, and I know Gigabyte has it in one of thei

Sorry, I misunderstood the context. You said something to the effect of 'still don't understand how this varies', except the micronutrient profile was released on 12/12, so that kind of bounds your curiosity at one day,

The product you link to contains 100kcal/serving. If you attempted to live off of this @2000kcal/day, you'd be going through 2/3+ of your container every day. It seems likely that you'd overshoot some of your micron

Well, the third point of the article was that research papers were too expensive. Maybe there's more to this but we have to paid the IEEE $20 to see it.

I have seen it happen one time that I can remember, where I was sure it was the CPU. We had 8 dual socket 5400-era Xeon servers in a VMware cluster. Whenever 64bit Windows 2008+ virtual machines were started on or were vmotioned to one of t

The story names the victim as Ifa Musawa. The correct spelling is apparently 'Isa Muazu'. While not quite the point of the article, I'm wondering why they didn't just grant him asylum?

Certification would be, at best, a third of the equation. It can demonstrate that you know how to do something correctly, not that you will do it correctly all the time or that you will be working in an environment that permits you to do it

Things may have changed, but you should take a look at Datacenter licensing. Last time I researched this (2 years ago), a Datacenter license covered an unlimited number of guests on that host. That said, I think most businesses where this r

Is 500 million lines a reasonable number for this? I've never worked on anything remotely like this, but 500 million seems like a crazy high number.

That's correct, and Oracle (actually Sun at that point) sued back. The cases were both dismissed w/o prejudice [1]. Of course, that doesn't mean neither were valid cases. [1] http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010&
