With no bandwidth cap? There must be some brutal TOS. Makes my $500/mo T1 look even worse.

That it crashes? Or that it can't handle processing subfolders? Both seem fairly relevant.

Nope. DPP crashes if it's working while I'm doing other stuff, and doesn't seem to perform very well. I use CS5.

Steam is useful, and it is evil (same as Facebook IMHO). I have given in to Steam because I like near-instant gratification and hate going to physical stores. I have avoided Facebook because I don't like people as much as I like games.

Threw in some meteorites as well. Awesome.

If you were to locate the folders correctly, you could have it process a main folder that contained your three subfolders. That would cause it to process them sequentially. No?

With a parachute of course. Though you would want to avoid all the high-tension wires holding it up.

I would feel considerably more comfortable at that height with a hangglider or parachute than with a 30lb toolbag attached to me.

Yeah. The tallest I have to climb regularly is 75'. Even at that height, the movement in the wind is considerable.

Way ahead of you. Already replaced the breakers I'm using in the old box with GFCI, repaired (or should I say, installed) the grounding system, repaired the tool, and repaired the extension cord. Other than blackened fingers with little blisters, I'm fine. The breaker is already quite broken...

Wow. 7D with flash? Do you have the latest firmware?

A combination of a faulty old breaker and a faulty old borrowed tool led to me getting electrical burns on my fingers a few minutes ago. I'm not happy. It also destroyed by new extension cord (vaporized the prong).

Were you opening them with CS5? It has (falsely) reported corrupt RAW files for me as well.

I can't imagine that the high ISO performance of the 7D is better; did the tc restrict the aperture too much?

Yup. Which is why I don't have one. ;) There are many homebrew projects out there that do the basics well, just waiting for something cheaper/easier to come along.

I know that Acronis allows "block level" imaging that may help you preserve what you have. The rest will have to wait for a *nix guy.

That would be very cool, but what I'm thinking about is a next-gen MS Surface as a coffee table/remote control.

Oh? Sounds like a story? Not expecting much from the tight-lipped one...

Not once you run the sector alignment app. Were you planning on using it for storage? Imaging an old OS install? New OS install?

Gaming on a netbook...good times ahead ;)

I'm just guessing, but I bet the RAID guys have simply not put 4k drives on the HCL and consider the problem solved for now. I agree that a firmware update would likely be necessary.

Of course, the only way to be really certain it is an implementation issue is to recreate the environment and see if the problem also recurs. That is a lot of work, and pointing a finger at them is less work. ;)

Does it happen when you log onto the TS and run the app locally? Does it happen for all users?

Sounds very shady. From their FAQ:

Interesting. Was I the only one to think "Who is PMC-Sierra?"

The numbers are OK, but if it can't manage better than a 20% swing on consecutive runs, I question their methodology.

It will install without OEM Preinstall kit. It should activate regardless, if not, TOR should work for you.

Took advantage of a clear night sky and a shiny new TC-80N3 to grap a bunch of star shots. Sending them through DeepSkyStacker now; it is giving my laptop quite a workout!

Be careful what you wish for...;)

That does indeed seem to be the case. Looks like I'll be going the analog route, then. Hooking it up to a DVD recorder and ripping what I'm after.

Congrats Stereo, hope they give you enough time to finish the theater ;)

Looking for a single non-broken page that'll consume some CPU? http://usdebtclock.org/

I'm borrowing all the expensive/specialized tools from a contractor friend. I'll see what I can do.

I am using nails, but in places the wood is so hard that the nails just bend over instead of going in.

Nope. Lucky in that regard. It isn't exactly the same size, as it has dried/shrunk in the last 50 years, but it is dimensional lumber. I was able to save quite a few studs from the walls I removed; really good wood, and the right fit with the rest still in the house. Problem is that it is very...

Hows this?

PVR Explorer Pro does run on all the files, and says something about an offset before converting to MPG at 200MB/s+, so it must be easy. I'm wondering if the files it is crashing on are encrypted, compared to the ones that work that aren't?

Even if you have 2x6 walls, you would have 6" sticking out either side of the wall. ;)

You could get one designed to rack-mount and then hang it on a wall-mount bracket?

Perhaps because it is now an AMD product?

Your take is a bit more left-leaning than mine. ;) What I hear when I read this is "they want the advantages of living in a city without the disadvantages". That life is crappy for at the bottom rungs of the employment scale is one of the reasons they are the bottom rungs. The capitalist in me...

We haven't moved in yet, but we plan to by the end of November, and won't have a kitchen until new years.

410, actually, on your recommendation. Couldn't be happier.

Because it is a really nice laptop ;)

All that is left of my kitchen. And that will be relocated next week.

Thanks Will. I haven't gone in there to have a look yet, but based on the activity on the PVRExplorer group, it seemed pretty dead.

Just ran it a number of times after a fresh reboot. Scores were +/-10% with no trends...not a good sign.

Seems interesting. Looks to measure the stuff that has been determined to matter in SSDs. Whether it measures it well is another matter. Here is a run from my laptop while it was in the middle of a bunch of other stuff.

Sorry Handy, wasn't aiming that at you....just a timely link from /.
