Guy wants to have remote access to his CAD' like software. He asks if it's better to DIY i.e. have home PC configured with UPS backup and manage that home server versus rent a dedicated PC from hosting company and have that convenience. Which is better?
Also, should he start with virtual server or dedicated?
> I'm unlikely to be online anymore much before 18:30 UK time. I have no access to SU at work (even mobile) as I am working in a locked down call centre (mobiles must be left in lockers)
Just adding my two cents as a 16 year old: No offence, but you appear to be an overly strict parent. Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone deserves second and even third chances. Why would you take away her phone and access to the TV? That's going overboard. I realize that she made a mistake, but too much punishment makes people angry and bitter, instead of helping... — rahuldottech16 secs ago
> About 21,000 people have been ordered to leave their homes and workplaces in the western city of Koblenz as a precaution before specialists attempt to defuse the 500-kilogram bomb on Saturday afternoon (local time)
o:
> Failure to defuse the bomb could cause a big enough explosion to flatten a city block, a fire department official said. "This bomb has more than 1.4 tonnes of explosives,"
> Reuters notes that every year Germany discovers more than 2,000 tons of live bombs and munitions, adding "In July, a kindergarten was evacuated after teachers discovered an unexploded World War Two bomb on a shelf among some toys."
> Screwed into a bomb’s tail beneath its stabilizing fins, the fuse contained a small glass capsule of corrosive acetone mounted above a stack of paper-thin celluloid disks less than half an inch in diameter. The disks held back a spring-loaded firing pin, cocked behind a detonator. As the bomb fell, it tilted nose-down, and a windmill in the tail stabilizer began spinning in the slipstream, turning a crank that broke the glass capsule.
> The bomb was designed to hit the ground nose-down, so the acetone would drip toward the disks and begin eating through them. This could take minutes or days, depending on the concentration of acetone and the number of disks the armorers had fitted into the fuse. When the last disk weakened and snapped, the spring was released, the firing pin struck the priming charge and—finally, unexpectedly—the bomb exploded.
Is this an appropriate place to ask a question that might be too simple for the main site? I'd like to know how to move my .emacs file to a different location.
@DavidZureick-Brown I'd encourage you to ask on the main site anyway so that other people with the same question can benefit from finding it in search results :)
I have mp3 songs of audio quality 320 kbps. The total size of the songs is around 200 MBs with a total playing time of around 150 minutes.
Can I write these songs to an audio CD, whose specs are following:
52x top recording speed on a CD-R/RW burner
700 MB storage capacity equals 80 min music...
@Hashim If I remember correctly the question made the Hot Network Question list. This guarantees it a lot more exposure. A link to the question could also have been shared on Twitter or other social media. Note: it has been viewed 24,243 times.
