Thank you this was the most insight of the current impact and of continued escalation of datacenter strikes

Agreed, this is my biggest issue with soundcloud is sub par compression that they use which complete distorts the highs. I feel it maybe better if soundcloud does go so thats it replacement will support better codecs.

They imply that providing a firmware update for free is a massive gesture of good will for existing users. When is this not the norm??

The incentive of public companies is everything to do with stockprice, as it is the primary metric to rate the performance of a company? What does information availability have anything to do with the value of a company?

Also worth noting that IBM stock price increased by $2Billion after defeating Kasparov. So they have had everything to gain by beating him at whatever cost.

It becomes the news as there are no recovery tools available for ZFS as there are with most other file systems. Meaning that the possibility of losing ALL data due to ram corruption becomes a real threat.

The worst case with ZFS and ram corruption is that you can lose your ENTIRE Zpool. As there are no zfs recovery tools available this means your data is as good as gone or a minimum 15k spend to get it re-assembled.

This makes it far more risky to run ZFS with non server grade parts.

It is worse as ram corruption can cause a loss of the entire zfs pool. there are no zfs recovery tools available, so data recovery can be next to impossible or very expensive.

Most corporate windows file servers (since 2003) use shadow copy, which saves previous versions of files every couple of hours. Any decent IT dept will use folder redirection, which redirects deskop, my documents to the local file server.

Amazon's James Hamilton estimates the north Carolina 171 acre solar array only generates %4 of the energy required for the datacenter

As much as I am interested in the topic. I could only read a few paragraphs, due to being irritated by the cheesy couple picture in the corner.

I get great results from using that lens for portraits. The 20mm lens is really a 40mm due to the x2 cropped sensor in m4/3 cameras.

I will also be attending the london VJ meet tonight but am looking forward to meeting you for a few hours.

As screens are now coming in a wider format i.e 16:9, there is generally a large amount of wasted space at the sides in a lot of webpages. Adding the sidebar is making better use of that space.

I have been using 4.2.2.2 for years but did not realise others were until now. It was the only IP I could remember from public dns servers list.

The majority of users in my experience just increment the last digit in there password by 1 each time they are forced to change it.

How does Apple get away with such monopolistic behaviour, if Microsoft had an app store would antitrust lawsuits prevail?
