LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Japanese stocks fell sharply out of the Thursday open, weighed by gains for the yen overnight ahead of a key central-bank decision. The Nikkei Stock Average NIK, +0.62% dropped 1.9% to 12,126.43 in early moves, with the Topix down 1.5%, as the dollar's fall below the 93-yen level hurt most major exporters. Car shares, which had rallied in the previous session, were among the hardest hit: Toyota Motor Corp. 7203, +0.36% TM, +0.11% lost 2.3%, Honda Motor Co. 7267, +0.26% HMC, -0.14% and Nissan Motor Co. 7201, +1.02% NSANY, +0.49% fell 2.6% each, and Subaru-maker Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. 7270, -0.05% FUJHF, +1.34% tumbled 3.5%. Among industrial majors, Sumitomo Chemical Co. 4005, +3.51% SOMMY, +2.61% dropped 3.7%, and Toshiba Corp. 6502, +0.57% TOSYY, +0.34% fell 2.6%, though Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. 7011, +0.88% MHVYF, +3.26% managed to gain 1% after a Nikkei news report saying it had won a $22 billion Turkish nuclear-power-plant contract in conjunction with France's Areva SA AREVA, -0.88% Shares of Sony Corp. 6758, +0.82% SNE, +0.16% lost 2.4%, and those of Olympus Corp. 7733, +1.56% OCPNF, +0.00% dove 4.3% lower, even as Dow Jones Newswires reported the two planned to launch their medical-device joint venture this month after a series of delays. The losses in Tokyo came ahead of the first Bank of Japan policy decision under newly minted Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda, due later in the day, with the market expecting significant new easing moves.

I just upgraded to 2.0 with great anticipation for the Event Logs monitoring. All I see on the Inventory Overview page is "no data to display"
Can someone help me?

Greetings Kay,
Have you performed a scan? Spiceworks does not automatically index your database. This may be why this is occurring.
Please kick off a scan and let me know the results.
Dec 21, 2007 at 7:13 UTC
Yes, two automatic scans have run since I installed the upgrade. But, I just ran a manual scan just in case. I am still seeing "No data to display" for Event Logs.
There is no rush on the reply since I'm signing off now and won't be back till Jan 3rd.
Happy holidays!
Dec 28, 2007 at 10:25 UTC
Greetings Kay,
Take a look at the following help page and let me know if you're still experiencing the issue: http:/
Jan 3, 2008 at 3:16 UTC
Sorry for the delay, just returned from vacation. I had found that webpage earlier and it seems I have everything set up ok. Actually, it appears as though I don't really need to set up anything. The Event Log feature should be finding my eventlog and reporting events to me without me having to do anything, right?
I thought initially that I wasn't getting anything because I didn't have any events to report, so I added some information events (like login, logout, etc) to the include list. But, alas, I still get only the "No data to display" message on the Inventory>Overview page.
I know I must have something set up incorrectly, but I just can't figure out what. I hope you can help.
thanks again,
Jan 17, 2008 at 12:55 UTC
Greetings Kay,
I apologize for the delayed response. You will need to set up a list of items to include.
Also, be sure that the Event Log is enabled.
Navigate to Settings > Advance and add /pro to the end of the URL
Where it reads 'Collect events**' ensure it set to 'true'
Jan 17, 2008 at 2:14 UTC
Greetings Kay,
Also, ensure that remote registry is enabled.
Jan 18, 2008 at 11:53 UTC
Thanks for your patience with me.
I do have "Collect events" set to "True". However, I do not know how to ensure that the remote registry is enabled. Can you point me in the right direction?
Jan 18, 2008 at 3:28 UTC
I should be thanking you for being patient while we try to figure out all the Event logging.
What OS are you running Spiceworks on?
Jan 18, 2008 at 4:44 UTC
This is running on Windows Server 2003 R2 (at SP2).
Jan 18, 2008 at 4:47 UTC
I found a service on Windows Server 2003 called Remote Registry. It is enabled and starts automatically when the server is rebooted. If that is what you're referring to, then yes I have it running.
Jan 18, 2008 at 4:57 UTC
Yes, that is what I was referring to.
Let me do some more research on this, we have been having some misc problems with Event IDs
Jan 31, 2008 at 12:05 UTC
Just wanted to let you know that Events started working. All of a sudden without me making any more changes to anything (i think). So, sorry i can't shed any light on what was causing my problem to begin with, but it is working now. Yeay!!!
thanks for all your help,
Jan 31, 2008 at 3:52 UTC
I'm glad to hear it! I unfortunately, have not found a clear cause to this. If you think of anything let me know, for now, I'm still hunting :)
Feb 15, 2008 at 7:22 UTC
Hi Myshell,
I've decided to install Spiceworks on my servers instead of running it from my desktop, in an attempt to avoid the additional traffic it might cause on my servers' allotment of bandwidth.
Unfortunately, now, I am again not able to see events, and I have no idea what made it start working last month. I will continue to check and recheck the things mentioned above and try to remember everything I did on the other servers last month. I'll let you know if I bump into any resolution.
Meanwhile, if you have discovered anything, I'm needing your help again.
Feb 22, 2008 at 3:43 UTC
Hi Kay,
Sorry for the delayed response. Aside from not having remote registry enabled I haven't found any clear cause to this.
Have you been prompted to upgrade to 2.1.18955 yet? If not, let me know if the events show up after the new upgrade, there were some misc problems with them.
Feb 22, 2008 at 4:15 UTC
Well, I just upgraded to 2.1 and ran a new scan. Still no events to display.

"So, you're the woman looking for these... Poneglyphs." said the hooded man.
Wondering how he got on her ship, the white haired woman studied the mans face under the hood. His tattoo was an obvious sign of who he was, Monkey D. Dragon, the revolutionary.
"Miss, might I make a deal with you...?" he removed his hood rubbed his tattoo. It still hurt just a little, since he recently had it put on.
"How... how did you get here..?" she asked, confused. There had been at least one person on board all day, while the search team was out. "I have a many connections, miss." He explained, and got down to business. "Now, I'd like to propose a deal, Miss Olvia. My organization could give you location of these Poneglyphs, if you could share the information with us."
"You know locations of Poneglyphs...?" she was shocked. How did he know this?
"Yes. I can supply you information for at least six years. I can not ensure your safety though. Researching Poneglyphs is illegal, ma'am." He grinned, and pulled a folder of papers from the inside of his cloak. He spread the papers on the table, each one having separate information and pictures.
"How did you...." she examined each paper.
"Like I said, I have connections." He got up, and walked out of the room of the ship.
The woman wiped some white hair out if her face, and realized he had left. She ran after him, but he was gone. "Did you see anyone leave here?!" She asked her fellow archeologist.
"Uh.. no ma'am.... I didn't see nobody..." He said, examining the ship. "But whats that there...?"
She looked over, there was something attached to the mast of the ship. A piece of paper. She took it, and a location was printed on it. "Send all information to here......" she read aloud.
25 years later, Monkey D. Dragon examined the information collected six years ago. He had concluded that the Rio Poneglyph was located at Raftel. The one key thing he needed now, was Nico Robin.
"Kuma." Dragon said as he walked in the room. "What is it, Dragon...?" Kuma asked as he closed his bible.
"After our meeting in concluded that Nico Robin needs to be with us, rather than with Luffy. For the sake of the world." Dragon explained as he sat across from his comrade.
"Alright then. We have a designated place for each Straw Hat member." Kuma said. "I'll be on my way to Saboady then."
"You're Luffy's father...."
"Yes. How is my boy?"
"He's good. Boundlessly optimistic. Speaking of Luffy, could I possibly get back together with him and the rest of the crew..?"
Nico Robin sat on a sofa on the deck of the ship, sipping a glass of wine. Dragon sat in a chair across from her.
"Actually... That wouldn't be a good idea. Being as, Luffy's my son I tend to keep track of his adventures. Frankly, you lot aren't fit for the New World."
"Hm.." she took a sip of wine. "You have a point, Dragon. But how can we fix this..?"
"Well. My colleague, Kuma has sent all nine of you to separate locations. Each location is the ideal place for each of your skills. I needed you, miss Robin."
"And what would that be for?" she took another sip of wine.
"You know how to read Poneglyphs." he explained. "I knew your mother. She gave me Poneglyph information as well. I believe with this information, we can change the world for the better."
"I completely agree, Dragon." she stood up, and raised her hand out. "I understand Luffys message in the paper. I will read Poneglyphs for you for two years, after that you will help me get back to Saboady and reunite with my nakama."
Dragon shook her hand "It is a deal."

Hi, I lost my dad when I was 5 months old and I am now 17. I don't really like to talk to people about it because I think they are so happy and won't want to hear it. I don't really have that many memories as I was only a baby when I lost him. I always think what if and every special occasion that there is i think would he be proud of me, what if he was here etc. I sometimes get jealous of what people have and the majority of my friends are always commenting and saying what a good weekend they had with their mom and dad. I know this May sound nasty but sometimes I just have to switch off. Also I get really frustrated and angry when I either hear or see comments such as I hate my parents because I think if only they knew the pain and heartache it is loosing a parent. I know that there are any people out there that have lost a parent or in some cases both parents at a young age. I had my prom last year and all I could think about was my dad and wished that he was there with me. I also think about when I get married who will give me away and he should be here to watch me and my sister grow up. Growing up has been difficult without both parents but i know that there are other people who have to do the same. I also have heartache because as I was born at the start of the year I didn't get to spend a birthday of mine with him, didn't get to give him a card for his birthday, didn't spend Christmas with him it new year either.

WASHINGTON (AP) Dr. Andrew von Eschenbach, nominated to head the Food and Drug Administration, insisted at his confirmation hearing Tuesday that "medical ideology" — not politics — guided his handling of proposed over-the-counter sales of the morning-after contraceptive.
Senators hammered von Eschenbach about the timing and substance of a surprise FDA announcement that it would again consider expanding access to the emergency contraceptive known as Plan B. The announcement came Monday on the eve of the confirmation hearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, and was the latest word in the three-year quest to widen access to the pill, made by Barr Pharmaceuticals Inc.
"We all know what's going on here," said Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, a committee member. "This is a disregard for science out of ideological concerns."
Von Eschenbach said he decided to consider allowing women 18 and older to buy the pills without a doctor's prescription "not on a political ideology, but on a medical ideology." He said data did not support safe over-the-counter use by minors.
"No one told me what I should or could do. No one told me what decision I must and must not take," von Eschenbach said during questioning.
The FDA has been without a permanent leader for all but 18 months since Bush took office in 2001. Von Eschenbach has led the agency on an acting basis since September.
"Without a Senate-confirmed leader, we can't expect the FDA to be as effective as it can be," said committee Chairman Mike Enzi, R-Wyo.
The committee did not vote on von Eschenbach's nomination.
Sens. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., and Patty Murray, D-Wash., have placed a hold on the nomination until the FDA makes a final decision on the emergency contraceptive. Clinton said the hold was intended to "draw a line" against "politicizing the FDA."
"This is a slippery, dangerous slope we are on, doctor, and we are looking to you to make a decision," Clinton told von Eschenbach.
Von Eschenbach said the timing of a decision on Plan B depended on Barr. Later, Barr spokeswoman Carol Cox said there was no word on when the company and FDA would even meet.
The FDA told Barr on Monday that it should further amend its application to limit over-the-counter sales to women 18 and older and create separate packaging to distinguish prescription and non-prescription versions of the pills. The FDA also wants to discuss Barr's plans to restrict distribution to certain pharmacies. It sought a meeting within seven days.
Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts, the panel's ranking Democrat, called the pending Plan B decision "a test case of FDA's integrity."
If Monday's announcement "leads to a swift and clear decision, I applaud it," Kennedy said, "but we must make certain that the administration does not use it as yet another delaying tactic."
Clinton raised the prospect that Bush might use a recess appointment to bypass the need for Senate confirmation. She asked the nominee if he would accept one before deciding on Plan B. Von Eschenbach responded that he wanted and looked forward to Senate confirmation.
Von Eschenbach told the panel that under his leadership, the agency would be guided by "sound science" and that he was "committed to maintaining the long-standing traditions and values" at the FDA.
Plan B was approved for prescription use in 1999. Since 2003, the Women's Capital Corp. and then Barr have sought to sell it over-the-counter.
The morning-after pill is a high dose of the most common ingredient in regular birth control pills. When taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex, the two-pill series can lower the risk of pregnancy by up to 89%.
Contraceptive advocates and doctors groups say easier access to Plan B could halve the nation's 3 million annual unintended pregnancies. Opponents say wider access to the pill could promote promiscuity.
The FDA's instructions to the manufacturer concerned over-the-counter sales to women. Cox, the Barr spokeswoman, said the question of whether men could purchase the drug on a woman's behalf had not been addressed.
Federal health officials thought that Monday's announcement about Plan B would smooth von Eschenbach's hearing. Instead, it subjected him to sometimes sharp questioning.
"Obviously, I think this brings the focus back on this arena," Susan Wood, the FDA's former top woman's health official, said before the hearing. Wood resigned last year to protest the FDA's refusal to loosen Plan B sales.
Von Eschenbach formerly led the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. Until recently, he was director of the National Cancer Institute, besides his role at FDA. The Philadelphia native has survived three cancer diagnoses: melanoma, prostate cancer and basal cell carcinoma.
The FDA has more than 12,000 employees and says it regulates nearly one in every four products that Americans consume.

Reading Jesus' death without disconnecting it from his life and teachings, (or his resurrection) unveils to us the realities of hierarchical power that engaged in targeted and precise violence against Jesus' body in an effort to crush the messianic reign of God that began to emerge subversively from below and within their jurisdiction, threatening to undermine their "lording over others". The only response such hierarchical and evil power knows is to stigmatize and punish a body publicly, making an example out of someone to keep the whole populace in place. This practice of retaining supremacy over others in reality is ugly and gruesome. By disconnecting forgiveness of sins from the death-dealing practices attached to social hierarchy, and all the monstrous practices that are employed to actually keep it, leave us unchallenged by the way of Jesus which points us (through his life, death, and resurrection) towards the new humanity that renounces such social patterns and vicious cycles.
If we are going to reflect on the death of Jesus for Good Friday, then we must also consider the contradictions of whitened Christianity that has for centuries practiced and permitted the limitless violence against black bodies while clinging simultaneously to the old rugged cross. James Cone was right, we must remember the lynched black body if we are to make sense of Jesus' body that was hung on a tree by the powers that be in his own day. Here is one such reminder. Here we find Douglas Blackmon describing the lynching of David Wyatt in vivid detail, which assists in revealing the hypocrisies of whitened Christian Civil Religion that continues to justify its own apathy and self-projections of innocence amidst anti-black terrorism against black bodies:
Dragged into the street, the mob surged around him, kicking and stomping his body until it was matted in blood and dirt. A rope was secured to his neck and tossed to two men who climbed a telegraph pole. Hoisted just a few feet off the ground, Wyatt's body whipped back and forth as members of the crowd gouged, stabbed, and sliced his torso, legs, and arms with knives. Others in the mob gathered pickets from nearby fences and roadside signs to build a crude pyre beneath his dangling corpse. Still more went for gasoline and benzene. Soon Wyatt's body was engulfed in flame. By the time the earliest churchgoers left their homes on Sunday, June 7, the grotesque form of Wyatt's carbonized remains lay amid a heap of ashes and smoldering wood on the street.[2]
May we not domesticate the Jesus story for our own religious comfort, but in telling the story, and doing so truthfully, may we worship our crucified Christ and encounter his delivering presence, and therefore be transformed after the image of God.

The competition is stiff, the cars competitive and the margin for error slim.
"You've got to have everything go right on the weekend now," Power said. "You can't have a bad start. You can't make mistakes or you're not going to win. It's very hard now."
Really, it is.
The Australian is just making it look easy. He will start on the pole for the second straight race in Sunday's inaugural Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at the 2.38-mile, 17-turn Barber Motorsports Park.
Power is trying to become the first driver to win the opening three IndyCar races. Sam Hornish was the last to start out 2-0 in 2001, and he went on to win the points title as a rookie.
Power also has a chance to join Scott Dixon, Dan Wheldon and Kenny Brack as the only IndyCar drivers to win three in a row at any point during the season.
He topped both Friday practice rounds and turned in the fastest lap time by nearly a second over Mike Conway and Penske Racing teammate Helio Castroneves in the final round of qualifying.
Power filled in for Penske during Castroneves' tax trial last year, before the Brazilian was acquitted and returned to his ride. Power ended the 2009 season in a crash that left him with four broken bones in his back, but has since thrived behind the wheel of the No. 12 Verizon.
"Right now, he's our target and we have to keep an eye on him," Tony Kanaan said. "He's on a good team and he's a very good race car driver. He's got the opportunity of a life and he's taking advantage. That's what makes the difference between the average guys and the good guys."
The soft-spoken Power doesn't put too much stock in the streak or the bull's-eye on his bumper. After all, there are 15 races remaining.
With a comfortable 44-point series lead, he is at least assured of remaining in front through the weekend since 43 points is the maximum possible points.
"It's a long season," Power said. "I haven't changed my approach. I still go into every race trying to get as many points as I can and make no mistakes.
"I guess in a way you probably can relax a little bit more, but the schedule coming up we've got tough races."
There will be a couple of less familiar faces starting up front.
Conway qualified on the front row for the first time, four spots better than his previous best of sixth at Infineon last season. Ex-Formula One driver Takuma Sato turned in the sixth-best qualifying time in just his third IndyCar race.
The drivers seemed to have a consensus on this race in one regard: Passing will be hard on the narrow track that was originally designed for motorcycle racing and has no especially long straightaways — at least compared to the first two venues in Sao Paulo and St. Petersburg, Fla.
"You've got to take a pass, but you have to make sure you don't take somebody out or yourself out," said Scott Dixon, who starts fifth. "So the track does seem to produce a little bit of a challenge on that direction. But I think everybody here is professional enough to make the judgment. We want to finish the race and collect points."
Castroneves, set to start third, said patience might be a key for that.
"Obviously at some point you're going to get frustrated unless you get out of sequence, and unless you can pass," he said.
Some of the best action could come at Charlotte's Web. That's turn No. 5, a hairpin that follows a straightaway and is overlooked by a spider sculpture. That's where the best brake work comes into play.
"I think it's going to be tough to pass," said Danica Patrick, who will start 19th out of 25 cars on the grid. "You're going to be lucky to see any really, maybe into turn 5, the hairpin — maybe. There might be some accidents. Maybe there will be bumping while you're trying to do it. Pretty big corners, but the rest of the track is going to be follow the leader. That's my opinion."

homeshopperb Review
I love this kitchen gadget! I have only had it over the weekend so I can't say if it will continue to be as wonderful as it is now, but it is Kitchen Aid and that tends to be a reliable brand. I have used it to make baby food (blender), Guacamole (chopper and blender), and apple cheddar soup (blender again). It is so easy to use, to clean and gets the job done thoroughly and well. The only potential negative is that you can't switch it to "on" and leave it like that you have to hold the button down. At first I didn't like this feature but really it is probably good especially when blending because it stops immediately once your hand is off of it. The grip is comfortable, and as stated before works like a charm. We have a XXXXX and XXXXXX regular blender-after this I think it's destined for donation to a locale thrift store.

Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy For Women And Men
It's bad enough that women must undergo via the night time sweats and complications, loss of sleep and irritability, however losing your hair? It can be more difficult to take care of your self in case your menopause signs are extreme, however you will be able to relieve these menopause symptoms by continuing to reside your life and enjoy your favorite actions. It's doable to have non permanent menopause and hrt lack of hair attributable to bodily stress, emotional stress, thyroid abnormalities, medicines and hormonal modifications (such as androgens and estrogens throughout menopause) normally associated with females. Although the link between arthritis and gender is much less clear, gender is certainly a a factor in some rheumatic diseases. Your irregular bleeding might be evaluated by your physician by performing a biopsy of the uterine lining. In addition, HRT relieves the hot flashes and vaginal dryness that many women experience.
Often women will take them for months and months on end to keep their acne underneath control. Menopause is clinically defined because the cessation of menstruation for 12 consecutive months. For starters, menopause happens when a girls has gone 12 consecutive months and not using a period cycle. It was extensively assumed that HRT and synthetic estrogens reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Since its first appearance in the 1960's HRT became menopause after hrt (nearly overnight) the primary remedy plan for ladies suffering from signs related to perimenopause and menopause. Although spotting in all the stages of menopause is often quite regular, it's still a good idea to get your self checked out if the strength of circulate adjustments abruptly.
So far, nonetheless, the reduction in sex hormones has been thought of essential only in women, making them resort to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) during their menopause, to assist hrt treatment algorithm them alleviate drastic menopausal signs resembling osteoporosis, hot flashes, etc.
This balance is of course disturbed throughout menopause and a holistic approach to health may also help you. Women in menopause should limit or eliminate alcohol and spicy foods as each can improve the incidence of hot flashes and night menopause hrt and depression time sweats. Other conventional medication used within the menopause are clonidine for extreme sizzling flushes and anti-depressants. It was ended mid-stream in 2002 when WHI investigators found that the risks of this method utilizing synthetic therapy exceeded the protection limits.
Studies have confirmed that hormone remedy not only reduces the menopausal symptoms but also the danger of osteoporosis and will increase the life span. It is this fluctuating and quickly declining estrogen ranges that is answerable for many of the symptoms related to menopause. Each girl must make her personal selections about whether or to not have HRT after menopause. Another time during a lady's life that they may have issues with feminine hormonal hair loss is when they're pregnant. Some desire to go through menopause naturally and others beg for prescriptions to help them deal with night time sweats, insomnia, and mood swings. There are no identified uncomfortable side effects through the use of progesterone cream as menopause therapy. Find a qualified physician practising BHRT and uncover there actually is life beyond a hysterectomy. Menopause normally occurs naturally for most women when they are in their late 40's or early 50's.
Especially to those who have chosen to live a more natural way of life throughout menopause, they are going to favor to use strategies like wild yam menopause remedy and taking specific vitamins menopause and hrt that have been shown to be effective. Keep in thoughts that most ladies will only have a number of signs from this checklist of menopause symptoms.

No. "HD took off so quickly" because there was a government mandated transition causing everyone's old TV sets to become doorstops.
All of this nonsense makes me glad that I still have the disk-by-mail part of Netflix.
The amount of over compression that pirates will put up with is appalling.
Kilo as 1024 makes perfect sense in context... once you realize that you aren't dealing with base 10 anymore.
NONE of the SI units make sense in a base 2 context. It's best to not bother getting your beaurocratic panties in a bunch to begin with.
> Go and see one of these in the store and tell me you still don't want one.
Of course putting your nose up to the screen doesn't count.
What kind of impression does it give in a real viewing environment that closely matches your own house?
"Artificial benchmarks" really don't tell you anything and never have.
>>In the real world, being first to market is an advantage.
> Something of a myth, I fear. Far easier to learn from the mistakes of the first mover.
That's still not a problem. Progress will occur rather than everyone being stuck in a 20 year quagmire waiting for some patents to expire. The current market leaders benefit from this despite whining that others want to do likewise to them.
> The problem with your argument is that innovation then becomes a trade secret.
...which is really no different then the situation we already have.
Patent applications are CRAP. They SUCK as documentation. They're worthless for their stated purpose of disclosing trade secrets. Beyond that, something being a "trade secret" is more advantageous because it allows all of the trivial crap that can be recreated by undergraduates to be safely recreated by other companies.
On top of all of that we have the treble damages rule which ensures that NO ONE ever looks at the patent database anyways. They do this to avoid further liability.
The "point of patents" has been totally subverted.
> Having owned a mac mini for years I wasn't even aware that intel
PCs have had standardized low profile form factors since before Steve came back. Some of us even suggested these as alternatives to the "desk lamp" Macs back in the day.
> Ask yourself why laptops sell more than desktop PCs
Laptops are portable and self contained. A NUC is none of those things.
Some laptops are even far more expandable than this NUC and will run circles around it.
HELL. I can probably get better hardware in laptop form for less than this NUC.
> One of these days you're going to figure out that your personal wants aren't representative of the general buying public.
You need to stand in front of a mirror and repeat that.
>> "The NUC (new and old) is very quiet indeed, despite the active cooling"
> Until the fan bearings get sad.
I've been a low profile PC user for a long time. I used Minis for awhile and then switched over to IONs.
I will let you know when "the fan bearings get sad".
My most aggressively cooled machines continue to chug on and not bother the end user with the bionic ears.
Small and quiet are only selling points for stupid fanboys that think that Apple invented the low profile PC.
This kind of machine is far less exciting when you've got stuff from the likes of Alienware, or Dell, or any random white box builder that combines better performance and lower cost while still being sufficiently small and much more maintainable.
Past a certain point, the extra cost of smaller just doesn't make any sense to the vast majority.
> Intel's web site makes it clear: active cooling, so it would be useless as a media centre even if it it were not massively over priced for that task.
My projector generates more fan noise than any of my other AV components including the HTPC.
> couple of days of dropping the monitor face down on the desk while you prat about cos you cant get at it
There are these things called HUBS. Perhaps you should look into them.
500 Watts? Even my Hex core AMD tower with 10 drives and a discrete video card doesn't draw 500 Watts.
> I'd rather the built in power in the Mac Mini - yes harder to replace if it does wrong but neater and less chance of being pulled out.
The "tidy" aspect of this is of very little value in the average home viewing setup. On the other hand, putting another source of heat in your HTPC just complicates things.
In general, all machines like this are a bit silly as general purpose machines. They represent a set of engineering tradeoffs that are pretty much the opposite of what people at large value.
> The idea is that the dashboard will provide visual information such as mapping like you find already in plenty of inbuilt vehicle satnav systems.
Ha Ha!
I recently had the displeasure of using the built in SatNav system in an upscale BMW. It was the single worst nav system I have ever used in my life. It had data that was 8 years out of date. Sure the HUD was flashy but the data behind it was pure crap. And that was a NEW car.
The nature of these corporate behemoths means that they are always behind the curve. Your cheap truck with an aftermarket head unit will likely run circles around this stuff and cost a lot less. It really doesn't pay to embed this kind of rapidly moving tech in a car with a much longer useful lifespan.
> Also if you need something that needs for example color management,
Are you posting from a the other side of a wormhole that leads to the 80s? That kind of thing hasn't been a compelling argument for the adoption of Macs for a very long time.
I have a very respectable broadband connection but I still don't want my desktop to depend on it. I don't even like my video streamers being entirely dependent on their connection to the mothership. I understand the limits of current tech and networks too well.
Most people simply don't buy into the hype. It doesn't help that they have been fed the "must be DOS compatbable" line for 30 years. This tends to put a damper on any alternative platform that looks anything like a PC.
As just another PC, the marginal value improvement of an Apple product is grossly overrated.
Whatever "lack of polish" you see in the Linux desktop isn't the problem. It never was. The market was won by the crudest command line interface available that subjected you to manual memory management.
"Quality" has nothing to do with this.
It's all about the apps and legacy interfaces that date back decades.
Something like Steam or Oracle or AutoCAD is far more important than KDE vs GNOME.
> Linux doesn't have a UI, unless you count printk.
> The rest is actually completely unrelated to Linux,
Yes. But all of that stuff can be built for Android just as the Mac desktop could be built for PhoneOS. There's no reason that a phone couldn't run a conventional desktop if the right inputs are attached. If the device is fully in your control, that becomes a lot easier.
People already jailbreak their devices or install SSH servers on them in order to treat them more like old school Unix servers.
Running conventional desktop software is just the next logical step.
An X server is perhaps the wrong thing for an Android device. However, X libraries would allow any other X server to connect to your Android phone and login to it graphically from across the network.
This could be useful for old devices that you would otherwise send into the landfill. Boot it into a new OS and give it a new lease on life. I really can't see putting this on one my current devices though.
> I don't think you are Apple's target customer.
This is supposed to be a workstation for professionals, not a consumer toy to demonstrate how much money you can waste.
Some mindless conspicuous consumer is hardly the target market for this kind of device. Although the Apple faithful seem to think that's who is likely to buy a Mac Pro. Pro users of any sort are much more like the "geeks" you are always trying to denigrate and marginalize.
If you are willing to declare that power users are no longer welcome in the Cult of Apple then I would not disagree with you.
> Where do you get this "cannot be upgraded" crap from?
You will need to get yourself an extra desk to accomodate the sprawl and rats nest of cables that you will need to pull all of that off. That 's just the thing you need when you are working in one of the planet's most expensive cities (SFO, NYC, London).
> Usually when something doesn't suit you, just leave it.
Easier said than done when you have bought into a single vendor proprietary solution.
Although at least some of the old Mac Pro gear (hardware) is standard enough to move over. Anything spent on software would be money just p*ssed away.
> True, but then I didn't see any standards organisations, or consortia of companies, even trying to create something similar.
Perhaps because it really is a stupid idea that is best avoided.
I can't help but think that this fetish for aesthetics and silent operation will just lead to poor performance of the cooling system and a machine that just cooks itself (like my nv9400 Mini did).
Cute and silent is a nice goal but the system needs to be able to maintain a sane operating temperature. The design and parts need to allow for that even if it would be deemed suboptimal in terms of appearances.
There is nothing to solve. PC vendors have been successfully building machines in this form factor for years.
Just approach the problem with a little bit of pragmatism.
Again we are dealing with the issue of unacceptable latency that I have complained about before. Pretending that you can throw together wildly different use cases and call it done won't necessarily make it so.
I may not be "in charge of any serious storage" but I am a victim of those that are.
What Apple usually does is to add that last 1% of what a device needs in order to appeal to the mainstream and then couple that with lots of visible marketing.
If some bit of computing tech has reached the consumer then it has probably been cooking in academia and research labs or non-consumer computing for a long time beforehand.
Britain didn't invent the tea chest sized Walkman this time. Microsoft did.
> Did you ever play with the PocketPCs (CPQ iPaqs etc - note the name carefully) and HandheldPCs (HP Jornada 720 etc) starting in the late 1990s
These would be devices running hardware on par with an Mac Plus?
They only supported relatively primitive UIs that you had to be a really dedicated geek to tolerate.
They are a fine example of a type of device not yet being ready for the masses due to tech not being sufficiently advanced yet.
The seem to have had very lax commit policies for their source repository and include the results of that in their nightly bleeding edge package builds. This appears to be their community or "cooker" environment rather than their commercial product which is vetted more thoroughly.
You aren't necessarily "stealing" when you use an unaproved media decoder either.
On the other hand, speeding is related to actual occurences of real grave bodily harm and property damage.
So is the enforcement of penalties. The offending party should have the opportunity to resolve the situation in the quickest and least disruptive manner possible. Something like a C&D letter or a DMCA takedown request should have been an option.
They don't need to be that fascist.
> HR (the automated systems that are used for recruitment nowadays) always ask for an official transcript before appointing.
Must be a European thing then. I've worked in all sorts of companies over the years including the kind that subject you to a month's worth of red tape before hire, and I doubt if one of them ever verified my credentials. I would know if they tried.
References are another matter though...
How many discarded tablets will you have thrown away by 2017? ARM based appliances don't have a very long shelf life. It's like PCs in the 90s. Every year's performance improvements are drastic enough that you want to buy a new device even if you can't quite afford it.
My current PCs will probably still be perfectly useful in 2017.
> Frankly, my life has become personally too valuable to spend time on tech.
You are trying far too hard to perpetuate a false dichotomy that's bogus anyways.
If you even know what a NAS is to begin with, the "time" issue really is irrelevant. In general, my devices don't require a lot of babysitting. What little upfront setup is done and forgotten about very quickly.
If that's all you got then Synology products are a total waste of money.
More open solutions are cheaper, more flexible, and don't require more special proprietary hardware if something goes wrong. Being cheaper also helps enable better redundancy in case something goes wrong. That redundancy moots many of the more relevant bells and whistles of this kind of "turnkey" device.
Plus the performance of this thing is just crap. Nevermind all the other stuff.
> You could more productively have spent that half hour installing e.g. FileBrowser
Why would it take half an hour to install an iPhone app? Is this some kind of Plex or AirVideo nonsense where you need a special proprietary app running on the PC on the other end? The Android version of this just browses common CIFS shares with no extra special configuration required beyond the app install on the tablet.
It's just bubble economics mentality. We've reached the point where no one is satisfied unless we are in some kind of bubble. All corporate growth has to be constant and unsustainable or people think we are in some kind of recession.
Anything that isn't explosive growth is seen as a tragedy.
> I think that modern PCs are used for more than those from 1981.
Fine. Then move the goalpost to 2003 or even 2001.
I have Atom gear that's comparable to my laptop from 2001 but with a better GPU. This thing is a cheap trailing edge product but still runs circles around any ARM device when it comes to either pure computation or media decoding.
I have 3 generations of ARM streamer that have yet to catch up to that crufty old stuff. That's 3 cycles of "need to buy something new" with no end in sight really. Meanwhile the sad little Atoms chug along in the corner picking up the slack for the ARM devices.
This will be like HTPCs and servers. The rubes will flee for tablets leaving only the serious power users with PCs. That will cause a mass exodus of Windows users. Linux will gain more prominence in the PC market that remains.
You could call it the Disraeli Effect.
> 1) As a sysadmin, i don't give a shit about its look, it has not tools to incentivies me to switch.
That "look" is the default user shell. It's not just window dressing. It actually does matter.
Anyone that's got enough of a clue to even think about doing RAID on Windows should have no real problem with Linux. It's like that one competent NT admin in your company that sits for a Unix cert just for giggles.
> If you had to migrate from your outdated windows to a newer version would you upgrade to the newest or the the next one down?
As someone that actually does business computing, I would say whatever actually supports my applications. Despite the usual Lemming propaganda spouted here, it's not a forgone conclusion that the latest and greatest will even support your bespoke or 3rd party apps.
If it's really about those apps that aren't available for any other platform, then it really is all about the apps.
> What distribution offers 10+ years of support at a price lower than Windows?
You only need that support because you would be like a bound and gagged gimp left alone in the bad part of town otherwise.
WinDOS legacy software allowed x86 to outlast all of it's other rivals. While it sucks when compared to Alpha or PPC, it really isn't that bad when compared to SPARC and that was the leader of the alternatives. Sun was like the Microsoft of the Unix world. They were the big player but they were mediocre themselves.
Now we're down to ARM vs x86 and ARM just doesn't have the horspower. It's nice for low power appliances but still kind of sucks for computation.
I'd much rather see a revial of SPARC then people try to shoehorn ARM into a compute bound server role.
Actual streamer appliances may need to keep track of what you are doing in order to tell you what you've already watched to to suggest something new. However, collecting this information in the course and scope of actually presenting you with content to watch is entirely different than what this LG TV is doing.
LG is engaging in pre-emptive data snooping not related to any end user requirement.
LG and anyone else that does this crap should be nailed to the wall by their family jewels.
> And since when has the average teenager been able to afford apple products anyway?
The idea that Android phones are "just the cheap option" is something that butthurt Apple fanboys tell themselves in order to sleep at night.
Android phones aren't any cheaper and Apple phones have the same kinds of subsidies where that kind of thing is relevant.

The Copper Cliff Redmen were a junior team. They played under the Northern Ontario Hockey Association.
In 1936-37 they played in the senior level Nickel Belt Hockey League (see 1936-37 Northern Ontario Senior Playoffs) and the Southern Section of the 1936-37 Northern Ontario Junior Playoffs. They won the junior playoffs and the 1936-37 Eastern Canada Memorial Cup Playoffs and went on to lose the 1936-37 Memorial Cup Final to the Winnipeg Monarchs.
They played in junior B in 1941-42, losing the semi final.
From 1945-46 to 1947-48 the Redmen played in the senior Nickel Belt Hockey League again because of the lack of local junior opposition. In each year they entered and lost in the Northern Ontario junior playoffs.
The Redmen went on to lose the final in the 1950-51 Northern Ontario Junior B Playoffs.

^Just as a clarification (and not as a disagreement to your post), Oda did not work on Dragonball, he worked as an assisstant to Nobuhiro Watsuki on Rurouni Kenshin (and you can see many of the lessons (concerning story/plot/character development) that Oda took from working under Watsuki) as well as a slew of other smaller manga (his other big job was working for the humour manga New Jungle King Tar-chan, which influenced much of Oda's whimsical humour (Luffy was, in my opinion, influenced greatly by Tar-chan)), but Oda never worked with Toriyama on Dragonball (unless you are counting Cross Epoch).

Worst case scenario, if none of the marines have Haki just based on showings of combat so far (like you've said), it doesn't mean that Luffy is simply going to wipe the floor with them. Two of the admirals so far (Aokiji and Kizaru) are impervious to physical attacks since they are logia users. But from what we've seen of Haki, regardless of what type of devil fruit the user possesses, the power of Haki can break through the defenses of anything and internally injure the person. Even though this new found power would allow Luffy to damage the admirals, he still has to watch out for their ridiculously dangerous logia abilities. Aokiji and Kizaru are monsters and so far we have only seen them play around with their opponents. Just because you can damage someone, does not necessarily mean you're going to win. Luffy vs Crocodile round 2 is a perfect example of this. Luffy knew his weakness, but he still lost against him.

Full script out now. Level 3 bounties are 50m+. The net was iron, but with seastone too (iron mixed with seastone powder perhaps?). Enough to have anti Devil Fruit powers, I guess, but not enough to make it super-hard.
The Level 2 prisoners are going wild - and giving credit to Buggy The Blugori are going to be sent in to deal with them.
Sengoku sure isn't happy with Luffy doing so many unheard of things in a row - Enies Lobby, punching a Tenryuubito and now Impel Down. There has been one escapee 20 years ago, but Luffy will be the first successful intruder it seems. Impel Down has held hundreds of thousands of prisoners to date. Sengoku's also annoyed with Kuma reporting that he'd finished off the Strawhats at the archipelago - Sengoku now knows that Kuma lied. However, Sengoku doesn't seem to have a clue as to how Luffy could have gotten away from that situation (doesn't he know about Kuma's ability to send people flying long distance - others do, so it's not "secret"). No sign that Hancock is in any immediate suspicion.
Anyway, with Impel Down hearing back from Sengoku about Luffy, they now know his objectives. This means they're much more intent on stopping him than before. When Mr 3 and Buggy get away from Luffy, they hope Luffy'll make a good decoy - which he does, since the guards are focused on him (though he's already founds stairs going down). Buggy and Mr 3 hope to lurk for a bit since the stairs to Level 2 are currently blocked. Mr 3 is suffering quite a lot from the heat (seems enough that a bird cooked in the air or something) due to being a waxman.
I'm not sure if the guards and commander will follow Luffy down to Level 4. I wonder exactly how hot that place is, given Level 3 is already very hot. According to the commander there's 4 wandering beast gaolers in the floors below (no patrols then?). Apart from the warden, maybe those'll be the main fights Luffy will have to win to get to Ace then. Anyway, Luffy's progressing pretty quickly at the moment - faster than it looked like a few chapters ago. I wonder if we'll see Mr 1 next week.

Eh, Moria will always be the #1 Shichibukai in my mind. I just love the fact that someone as lazy as him can still be such a huge threat (gotta love uniqueness!). I'd actually consider Blackbeard having the #1 spot instead, but I sort of see him being in a different league of his own despite him being a Shichibukai, what with him essentially being a "darker" version of Luffy. I'd still say that he's one of my top favorite villains overall, though.
Yep, Luffy certainly did survive those battles by the skin of his teeth. Heck, you can even say that the same applies to the Lucci battle as well, seeing as the marines held him in such high regard for being a legendary assassin. But.... hey, shounen logic and all that.
Still, that makes me all the more curious as to find out who the final boss in the Impel Down arc will be. Luffy's already commented that the freaky creatures guarding the first two levels alone were no pushovers, so who knows what final obstacle Luffy will have to face off against before he can successfully rescue his brother? While the wardens are probably pretty powerful in their own right, I'm not 100% certain that they'll be the final bosses for this storyline. After all, we also have to take into account the types of prisoners who are held in level 6+, and whatever creatures will be guarding over them. Luffy's gonna have a helluva rough time in the prison's lower levels......

If the topic is Haki, I'll be sure to stop by.
I'm not sure what people thinks Haki is now, but I'll just say that as long as someone is a leader, has demanding presence, is intimidating, is powerful, he already has Haki.
Why does the Pirates and even Marines have so much fear and respect for the Admirals? Because they are extremely powerful, have a demanding presence and intimidates them. Their Haki overwhelms those before them, just hearing their names, knowing that they are around somewhere sends shivers down their spines.
For Sakki, why do you think the Marines fear Lucci so much? Because that man is a walking killing machine, he doesn't hestitate to kill, he loves killing. The thought of crossing paths with him may mean that your life is in danger, that is Lucci's Sakki, people see him as an embodiment of death.

But is it me or is the World Government more evil than pirates? I mean they talk about protecting "justice" and all that stuff, but every time i see them doing something like getting rid of pirates or for exemple the Buster call how inhuman it was on not only Enies Lobby but also Ohara.
I have maybe discovered a theory on Will of D and the missing past...
The Will of the D were royal family lines all the way to Luffy and few others for exemple...
* Monkey D.
* Gol D.
* Marshall D.
* Jaguar D.
who rule over the Ancient kingdom 800 years ago during and something happen between the Ancient Kingdom were the Monkey, Gol, Marshall, Jaguar rule over fought against the 20 kingdoms that soon became the World Governmant.
I cant fully create a theory since there are alot of holes, but since everyone who has The Will of the D, cant seem to figure why they have it, has to be involved with the lost centuray.

It'll be quite interesting to see how Sengoku will handle the situation with Luffy.... seeing how pissed he is over Luffy's various antics, and the fact that none of the various marines/Shichibukai sent after him were successful in capturing our Supernova friend (whether it was deliberate or not), he may decide to travel to Impel Down to deal with Luffy personally. Garp's reaction to Luffy breaking into the prison makes it clear that he has no intention of arresting his own grandson, and Kuma's going to be under a lot of hot water with the government now that Sengoku's aware that he didn't wipe out the crew at Sabaody like he should have ('course, this also raises the possibility of Kuma working for Dragon, but that's another story......). Looks like if Sengoku wants the job of taking out Luffy done right, he'll most likely have to do it himself.....

^I doubt Sengoku can make any sudden movements right now (unless he, or a subordinate, has a power that allows him to travel great distances quickly), considering that Sengoku is waiting for Whitebeard to strike. That being said, I could definetly see Sengoku sending large amounts of reinforcements in order to quell a rebelion within Impel Down, as well as secure Luffy and, more importantly, Ace.

While it's true that Sengoku forced Garp to return, he still practically let Luffy escape in the end. Sure, his one-man Buster Call act was impressive (as well as tossing that gigantic cannonball), but I still doubt that Garp put a lot of effort in trying to stop Luffy. I mean, Aokiji was even present, yet he didn't lift a finger against Luffy himself (especially when he could have just frozen the water to stop Sunny in its tracks!). I believe that, in the end, Garp was just going easy on his grandson.....

As for Aokiji... Again, much like Garp, unless Aokiji gets direct orders, whether or not he acts is up to him... There is no indication that aokiji was keeping in contact with HQ, and he very likely has been on water 7 the whole time till Garp showed up and he decided to hitch a ride... Aokiji was not ordered to attack and thus decided he wanted to just lay back and not interfer
