To be the devil's advocate, I don't believe iptables was ever intended as 'end-user' software but more for specialists and as an interface from things like Shorewall.
That said, I've never found the documentation lacking in any way.
I have nothing against the progress from ipchains to iptables and use iptables raw every day.
That said, while I understand the kernel issues they're trying to eliminate with nftables, looking at the coding of rules does not make me feel like its an improvement in any way:
Servers aren't accessed, services are. A server with no services is inaccessible.
I prefer my terminology.
Read a really good report recently on the accident in Russia where the copper lid fell early on their plutonium and caused a sudden critical event.
Very sad for the scientist involved.
Which support level did you pay for?
Dell offers an option to pay a bit extra and not get harassed with silly questions, or a cheap option that requires user diagnostics.
Only pay for the ProSupport without diagnostics required. You'll add years to your life in lost stress.
I've sold and maintain dozens (probably at least a hundred) Dell machines and it has everything to do with the machine type.
Optiplex? no arguments.
PowerEdge? no arguments.
Dimension? Days on the phone.
Also, my experience is that their chat tech support is incredibly efficient (I'm usually done within half an hour, start to finish) and their phone tech support is much slower on average.
I never go through that checklist because I use their online chat feature instead and dump my entire diagnostics list I've done to them and then wait for them to read it.
90% of the time, they simply start a hardware replacement and send it next day.
We also only pay for 3-5 year ProSupport on all servers.
I don't see anywhere on OCZ's site that says "Windows-only SSDs for sale"
If you call it a boat engine, sure. If you just call it an engine, it should work as an engine in any application.
Considering there isn't a safe option for mounting your hardware with Windows at all, you're not worse off with a Linux LiveCD in the worst case, and possibly much better off.
Actually, iptables is sub-optimal, that's the problem: http://lwn.net/Articles/531752/
That's not true -- port based firewalling prevents inbound packets to services you want to run but don't want to be accessed from the outside.
I learned iptables from the data available online pretty quickly. There are lots of good guides and a decent man page too.
Granted, I already understood ipchains very well at the time it was released but I don't see the need for much more extensive documentation.
I already spend most of my video watching time in front of a 103" DLP projection screen at 10'
I've never met anyone who thought 120fps motion looked fake. I've heard them say it looks un-movie-like but not fake.
Run a 120fps video of a landscape on a picture frame and it looks a lot like a window, it does not look like a movie, but it does look real.
You mean this quote? "Initially supporting Asus’s VG248QE monitor, end-users will be able to mod their monitor to install the board, or alternatively professional modders will be selling pre-modified monitors."
Old programmers never die, they just hit account block limit.
