Particularly 2.5" caddies. There was one point at which I was going through them every few months - they're all made from the same shitty chipset, so it doesn't matter which brand you buy, they all fail.

Silicon Image or JMicron ?

Sure it's not the rubber band that has lost too much of its strength to open/close the tray properly ?

What about utilities or goodies. Can we use that ?

look at you: concerned because i dehumanize a mass murderer?

Yes because he is still a human.

you do not possess coherent morality

I never claimed I did. And I very much doubt you possess it as well.

you respect and tolerate all. until someone disrespects and lacks tolerance. then you give back exactly the same

O tell me oh wise one, where did I stop tolerating you ?

to tolerate intolerance is only to invite the destruction of your belief system

Cute very cute. Now give me one in Latin.

why is this creature still alive, it is not a human being. it has lost the ability to call itself that by defiling basic morality to such a repugnant extreme. why is this thing still alive? so it can whine about video game privileges? this thing must die

In war we all defile morality to repugnant extremes.
Stop dehumanizing this man by calling him *it*. It's practices like that that help enable enormous atrocities (see Hutu - Tutsi genocides).

again, please note: we are here on the very edge of atrocity. the crimes that shock the conscience at the furthest extreme. the worst of the worst of the worst. they alone deserve death from the state

The atrocity scale edges' move according to the 'zeitgeist'. There is no real hard end.

so india has the closest approach to perfect on capital punishment in this world.

Yeah India. With their multilayered racist caste system. They know all about justice.

I agree that (B) is becoming a lot more difficult, as available space fills up, and as nation-states impose moral strictures on other nation states; in that case, there is the suboptimal option (C) hide your differences from the larger society until such time as you can exercise one of the other two options, or until you die, or are caught.

Nobody wants to be a foreigner.

No confidence in the rehabilitative powers of the prison system :D ?
To be fair these people would never get out, even in Europe.
There are clauses that keep people a ward of the state after their prison time.
These are designed for these sort of people, although they sometimes get used for political prisoners.

You think you should kill people without remorse because they killed people without remorse.
It's psychopaths all the way down.

But you can learn to kill and the remorse lessens with "practice". A lot of soldiers approach psychopath.
So Isn't the government to blame a little bit for war-traumatised soldiers coming back from their stint of Hell and going ballistic (Timothy McVeigh) ?

Personally, I'm happy for the lack of availability of Euthasol for use in human executions. Anyone who deserves execution does not deserve a quick, painless termination, they deserve to suffer as much as possible. The only way to make it better is to make them suffer like their victims, and their victims are NOT JUST THE PEOPLE THEY KILLED, but also all the people left behind. When someone murders another innocent being, plans it out, does the execution and shows no remorse at all (all of these things are the requirement for the death penalty in most places) ... and it happens to be your loved ones ... then get back to me on your high and mighty horse, until then ... stop pretending you're so enlightened. You aren't, you're just naive and selfish and ignorant of reality.

But that's not justice that's revenge.

The other day I found a security problem due to the way the linux and BSD kernels handle ARP in different circumstances, and the interaction there created an attack surface. If the guy doesn't know much about networks, he's going to have a hard time of getting into the nitty-gritty.

Hasn't ARP always been an attack surface (arp cache poisoning) ?

According to this: http://www.servethehome.com/as... we can conclude that the 10GE silicon is on the motherboard.

Yes, as edX notes, this is an anomaly, but it isn't really clear to me what prompted the decision

Money !

The article doesn't say that they're integrated, just the summary. Maybe the mac is internal, but the phy (the power hungry part of ethernet) will be a separate chip. There's no way they stuck it in the cpu, 10G phy silicon is huge and heatsinky [google.com].

Well according to this Intel powerpoint presentation http://download.intel.com/news... by Killeen Kristine it is integrated.
There is some details on the benchmark methods in the fine print but it isn't throughput that they are testing it is concurrent sessions.
Too bad there are no details on "Intel's reference board" so we can see if the heavy silicon is on the motherboard or not.

HR isn't looking for some basement dweller running Slackware on a 386

Heej ! I feel personally offended by this. Although I'm in the attic running Slackware 14.1 multilib on a AMD FX8350.

So you disable one of the most important technologies to monitor your disks.
Aren't you afraid you are sticking your head in the sand that way.
What's left: log messages, iostat output ?
