In Formula 1 the FIA (rule-makers and enforcers) often seem to give penalties to ensure the title fight goes to the last race. Hamilton in Spa 2008 and Alonso in Monza 2006 are examples which come to mind.

Pretty cool, but it needs the ability to pitch up/down to be useful.

Too late for me - I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 instead of an HTC Sensation precisely because of the locked bootloader.

mmap is how the Varnish web cache works - the cache files is mmaped in, and the kernel does the rest. Given the awesome performance of Varnish, I am surprised more applications haven't taken this approach.

In the UK the liability of directors is limited to the nominal value originally invested (usually £100).

Manchester/Warrington borders here (Birchwood). Cheap office space + quick train journey to the centre of Manchester.

TLDR; It's marginally faster than the Boxster architecture, but slower than the Carrera architecture.

Interested to compare to http://www.cio.co.uk/news/3252277/demand-for-tech-staff-high... which suggests that the number of IT jobs in the UK is growing, and that growth will accelerate over the next year.

Rewards cards cost more to process. As I understand it though Mastercard and Visa T&Cs mean that if you either accept all cards or none.

Nope, the CSS contains -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; /* Stops the iPhone scalling type up */ which has the unfortunate side-effect of preventing text resize in webkit browsers.

Typing this on an 1810TZ and I agree. 3GB of RAM, reasonable processor, 1366x768 native resolution, 6-8 hours battery life depending on usage. Cost me £330, although I've swapped out the HD for an 80GB Intel X25M SSD which cost an extra £

I've worked on several servers of similar specs to this (64GB RAM, MySQL 5.0 or 5.1) and have never seen this issue. All systems were running RHEL or CentOS, so perhaps Red Hat have fixed the problem.

Who benefits from IE9 being available for other platforms? Not users. What would the ability to run IE9 add to the Linux or Mac desktop? Another web browser? Do we really need one? Not Microsoft, who would have to invest massive amounts

Anyone got any ideas why the strangely specific size of 613MB RAM?

Great, except for when your users DNS resolvers cache the DNS entry longer than they're supposed to (many resolvers ignore TTL), and are unable to reach your site.

I run a company that provides sysadmin consultancy, and we deal with problems like this on a pretty regular basis. We're not on your continent, but would still be happy to help. http://bashton.com/ I very much doubt it would be possible

I don't have Windows, but use KeePassX and KeePassDroid to share the password DB between Linux and my Android phone (via Dropbox) and it works great.

This doesn't sound like a loan to me - it sounds like a contract where the party buying equity is given priority on dividend payments, which as I understand it is reasonably common. Of course, the money not actually appearing is a different

We're currently using entp's tenderapp, and I'm not particularly impressed so I'll definitely be giving you a try. Some of the problems we've had with tenderapp: * Customer's emails getting flagged as spam even though spam checking was

Also they're using non-ECC RAM (the processors they use don't even support ECC), which is much cheaper and also a very bad idea for anything you care about. Data corruption isn't fun, especially when it's subtle and has existed long enough

I didn't find this at all. Plugged optical out on the motherboard into the optical in on the amp, set mythtv to let the amp decode dd/dts itself and everything worked fine.

I agree, nginx seems completely superfluous here. Actually, it's worse than superfluous - the way it's configured, nginx seems to be caching dynamic files but never expiring them.

A reasonable summary, but one that demonstrates some misunderstandings of the Linux world. To deal with the issues point by point: * FreeBSD has better performance than Linux? This is, as you almost concede, no longer true. * Lack of kern

Red Hat concentrated on the enterprise. They certainly haven't abandoned it - they bought Qumranet as much for their desktop virtualization solution as the KVM technology. These numbers show that Red Hat did the right thing too - they're a
