Got it. Probably been indexed already...

Started with an ear infection? Could have affected the 7th cranial nerve? Just a guess, but if basic a anti-biotic don't fix it, go to the hospital. Really.

How's that ;)

Legacy browser? Meaning compatible with pages designed for IE6? That would be an interesting plug-in.

That is cool.

I haven't seen a definitive answer as to whether TRIM works in 2008 windows raid arrays?

Nope, I'm managing the technical end of a fundraiser event for my old High School. Computers, projectors, power, internet, etc. Should be 500+ people.

Really slow day. Getting ready for another event, not much time for anything.

An excellent point.

I've used ~75 OCZ Vertex drives (original and turbo), yours was the first and only that I had purchased to fail.

Yup. Guess who built that for him ;)

That is pretty quick. The only times I've gotten stuff faster was when we had a massive support contract and the replacement computer was but on a commercial airliner. Arrived from across the country 6 hours later ;)

Intel had some firmware issues on some drives a while ago. It has been a while and the recognized and resolved the issue fairly quickly. Not long ago I built a DB server with a pair of RevoDrive X2 boards in Windows RAID-1 for data and an Intel 80GB SSD for the OS. Works fine, no issues...

Here is a list of generic cheap-os. Here are the Antec ones, which are just a little better IMHO.

Time for another opinion. How long has this been going on?

Yup. I hate shooting weddings. The expectation for the event is too "perfect".

My memory just isn't that good. It seemed plenty stable, even with tons of stuff hooked up.

Which server box?

Wow. That does sound pretty bad. What does the doc say?

That is the problem, I like that view for sentimental reasons. It is one of the places I took my wife often when we started dating. I like the view from that location, but don't know what I can do with it.

Only photographer. There was another guy doing video, actually had the same rig as me (7D with a 17-40/4). Ended up with about 2200 shots, most of them were candid group shots in a large crowd, so much blinking and drinking. About 400 people at the event, including ~30 "VIPs". "Bubba" Paris was...

So far your weekend was better than mine ;) I ran around in a tux taking pictures of other people in tuxs.

Composition question. Here is a downsized chunk of a larger pano (warning, it's still 9999x2042 - the biggest Flickr seems to handle) I'm looking for cropping/composition suggestions. Examples would be great. This is certainly my weakest (of many) point, and I'd love some feedback.

New all-time high for me today. This winter doesn't seem to be fading, so I might go for a while longer.

a. They released on Steam a year later, and likely had learned a lot already. b. That Steam is better than a Microsoft console is like saying I'm smarter than a brick.

Interesting. When a student of my wife was killed (multiple stab and gunshot wounds, car set on fire), she was counted as a "drop" and negatively affected the performance metrics.

We have a PTO system that will accrue up to 200 hours of time off. When it hits 200 I cash out 100 and keep going. Not me.

I must not understand. You are trying to replace the motherboard of a computer and are trying to do it without rebooting?

Merc, if I had half a budget, you would already have an offer. At this point, we are just trying to keep the lights on. At the moment we're trying to figure out how to get this work. As an interesting note, take a look at the "alternate route" further down.

Check the motherboard chipsets. Install any different drivers beforehand. At the very least, have the driver for the new NIC saved locally first.

I come to work no matter what, I don't have a backup so there really isn't an option. I do lock myself in my office, and I have a separate entrance to the building, so I'm not endangering others.

I've had that from 3 things. 1. Grounded board (as merc said) 2. RAM with invalid SPD settings 3. Insufficient power supply

It's a gesture. I'd appreciate it. That is what you get for paying that much for a motherboard in the first place ;)

I just noticed that today I got my first big unit bonus since before the A5 upgrade. The first of many I hope.

Mid-level. Moderate failure rate, moderate support. 1. Gigabyte 2. Intel 3. ASUS 4. The rest

You still have a few months ;)

That can't be cost effective.

Even if this goes to a "7", and we have four a century, it will still be less harmful than coal as an energy source.

Not ad bad as PC Chips in my experience, more like an ABit or Msi (middle of the road) which isn't good enough for server hardware.

In my experience Supermicro makes very affordable and not very good stuff. I really liked their 1U barebones machines for a couple years; until things started failing. Now I just get 4U chassis and stick desktop hardware in them. Doesn't seem to be any less reliable, and is quicker and cheaper...

I have a few of those Three Hundreds with the 430W PS; easy case to work with, looks good, no complaints.

Pebble Bed Reactor

I suspect that they understand that the main value they were providing was the controller. Now that they own the controller manufacturer, they actually have some value.

I'm quite happy with the added real estate going to FF4. It makes the bookmarks toolbar more useful even on narrow screens.

Looks like I lucked out here. I didn't buy any.

The thing that is bugging me at the moment if that none of the press is talking reactors with passive safety vs. those without. Only reactors without passive safety are ever in danger of this kind of problem.

Well, my average is back below you and Mark, and there are only 9k points between Handruin and I.

I don't have a need at the moment, in the past I've used different solutions.

Is that what it would take? I've always been concerned about breaking stuff.

That is really interesting. I have a number of applications where I would like a write and read capability, but not change or delete.
