It's a bit funny that they say "most service operations are succeeding normally now" when, in fact, you cannot yet launch or terminate new EC2 instance, which is basically the defining feature of the cloud...

The max-unused percentage feature is well worth it to 80/20 the prune process and only prune the data which is easiest to prune away (i.e. not try to remove small files big packs but focus on packs which have lots of garbage). In gener

The downside is that a bunch of processes started from one TTY doesn't get as much CPU as before. It basically shifts the scheduling granularity a level higher from processes to (interactive) sessions. Because that's what the question is: o

What's the reasoning for your reproduction of the complete text here? With all possibly valid reasoning in this particular case, there should be high barriers for just copying someone else's text, esp. here given its personal nature.

I think that's a valid point. For long years mostly the live performance of media was paid for. Then with the manifestation of media as data, the guys who had the machines to record and create copies claimed the stakes and the exclusive rig
