So you plan for the notebook to outlast you?

Yes I did. Now I have trouble just renaming a directory within the /opt directory of the global zone. I deleted the original file and then copied it from another computer, along with its entire directory. When I put the directory in /opt, it becomes write-protected and I no longer can rename...

Oh no! That's JTR's house!

I haven't tried. Will do tomorrow. Inside the zone, the file isn't there. I think the file system is inherited because I didn't do anything special to give a FS of its own.

From now on, I'll start following your links just to find out with how much originality you'll be able to screw them up.

Odd problem I now have. I try to copy a file from the global zone into a container. A file with a similar name was in the container before I tried to copy the new file. When I try : root@globalzone:~# cp /etc/acertainfile.conf /export/home/zonename/root/etc/ I get : cp...

I think people interested in Intel's Sandforce drives should rush and buy the older generation before the 335 and 525 series replace them completely. Whatever slim performance and lower power gain the new generation might have over the older one won't be of much use when the drive's memory will...

I think it's good enough. If there was any problem, it would have surfaced by now.

The board didn't eat your post Mooner. You simply posted it in the wrong thread (should have been in the Hurricane Sandy thread).

I never realized that you worked in North Korea.

It will certainly beat whatever damages Irene did last year.

I'm almost certain Handruin has a passkey, otherwise he wouldn't have climbed to ~5 million points so far. If the big GPU units are like the CPU big units, you have to complete a certain amount of "ordinary" units before getting the good ones. So I wouldn't systematically delete the other...

BTW, there were talks on Stanford's FAH forum that a Linux GPU client was in the making. Is there a beta version out yet and can you get the p8057s with it?

I'll soon be in the market for a Xeon W3680 to pair with my spare GigaByte X58-USB3 motherboard. 3 PCI-E16X slots (one being only 4X electrical though), all just waiting for upcoming GTX 570.

Bozo's in New Jersey?

Not that is especially powerful, but its size sets it apart from the norm. Here's a comparison between Sandy's size and the largest cyclone ever recorded (1979's Typhoon Tip) : Tip Sandy ...Sorry for the missing pictures. I can't figure out how to include pictures I've uploaded in this...

Because you're not rich enough to be elsewhere.

Compared to his currently daily contribution (nothing), I think adding his GTX 690 for 18 hours per day will be pretty substantial. The first thing to do would be to join the beta team.

In order to establish the value of something, you always have to find the bottom of the scale and then measure up.

Well...I should add 150K ppd to daily output sometimes next week. Meanwhile, we should help Dave to setup his monster card even if the client isn't quite ready for Kepler. If we can make it work, the point reward will be tremendous.

From what I can read, AMD still has issues with OpenCL and that is the primary cause why their client cannot be optimised as much as Nvidia's. The point reward for AMD's graphic cards is miserable compared to what you can get on Nvidia's stuff. The GTX 580 still is quite expensive, but I've...

If you do that, I'll have to spend ~600$ just to conserve my second spot on the team's ranking.

It's good to know. But these days, as my company has no money to spend, I'm a lot more interested in OpenIndiana than I am with Solaris. Yearly +1000$ support contract licence per socket isn't very popular with the administration folks. I'm halfway thru the optimization of their production...

Ok, so now I have to fill my empty PCI-E16X slots with Kepler-based cards. I browsed the FAH forums, but i cannot find a comparison between the FAH performances of a GTX 670 versus the one of a GTX 660Ti. I'll probably go with the former. I can't see you fly away that fast without answering...

Or one can say that baseball has become a very dirty sport...

That's a good one. Even better is the fact that almost three hours later, it hasn't been fixed.

You bought 16GB of RAM and then you install...Windows XP on it. Me am perplex.

It should be available...NOW!

Build me a monument.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned it in the Windows 8 thread as it is the program I use to make Windows 8's interface usable.

Wow, that's an awesome price. How are the displays? What about the viewing angles? Are the CPUs Sandy or Ivy Bridge?

Sanity? They elected Steven Harper, mister I-fuck-the-environment-in-the-ass. He's barely better than Bush. Barely. Vancouver and Victoria, in British Columbia.

You could move to Gangtok, between the Buthan and Nepal. It has to be quite a bit fresher up there than in the oven where you live. There are northern parts in the West, but I don't think Kashmir is such a great idea with the territorial semi-war with Pakistan.

There's a review of this case at nanandtech. I'm just waiting for it to be in stock at a store nearby to get one.

So a bit stronger than what we had some two weeks ago.

Top to bottom and the fan rotates clockwise IIRC.

Done.

I should take back what's mine by the end of the day. It will have taken me 35 days.

I prefer the Lubuntu variant, but anyway, they all are available now.

Here's the review. The bottom line : I know a guy who has to buy a bunch of computers these days who should strongly consider this PSU if he hasn't bought it yet.

The hidden partition is probably the recovery partition. If it's not too big, you can leave it as-is. You'll never use it, but it depends how much you value your time if you decide to flush everything and re-install the entire thing or not.

So Felix Baumgartner now has the record for the highest freefall and he broke the sound speed barrier, but Joe Kittinger still holds the longest freefall record because Baumgartner opened his parachute after about 4m19s while Kittinger's record was 4m36s.

But what in the world needs a unified 2TB of memory...except an MS Access database?

I'd buy two but only use one. We curently only have two dual-core servers on spare so it's not like we have a lot of redundancy either.

I calculated that 256 threads in a Supermicro filled with E5-2680, a "scant" 1TB DDR3 1600MHz RAM total and 7.6TB of SSD storage would only cost ~56000$. It also fits in a 4U space instead of a 5U space like the Oracle server.

No, not T2. Most are either Dell or HP single socket 1U servers with dual or quad-core x86 CPU, mainly Core 2 Duo era. There are 4 Xeon X3460 too. I don't know if the other guy followed a seminar or not. All I know is that he's worked on Solaris for nine years and it took me 6 months from...

Well, they can always laminate those that are no longer used and hang them on the walls... Honestly, I don't consider the sales pitch to be my problem. Oh and I did some more calculations and I realized that I will be able to double the overall capacity of the production group instead of...

It finally worked and even better than I expected. I ran the tests on my toaster, a 600$ mini-ITX box with a single, unoverclocked, Core i7 2600. With the zones fully configured and a bit of tweaking, it is almost able to match the overall performance of our production group. The problem is...

I'll check tomorrow, but the system has 16GB of RAM for only three zones plus the global zone. When I checked the RAM usage using "top", 14GB out of the 16GB total where free. IO wait times can be viewed in OpenIndiana...how? Netstats maybe?
