Speed Limit Discovered For Writing Data

Speed Limit Discovered For Writing Data 04/21/2004 02:09 PM
A recent experiment has determined that there is a physical limit to how fast data can be written to a magnetic drive. Of course, we're nowhere near that limit, and it's really unlikely to matter at any point. Even if there were applications that ever got anyone near that point, it's likely that we'll be on to some other method of storage by that point. So, while it's a nice bit of info, it doesn't seem to have much practical application.

IO Data's 3D LCD Filter with Cheeseball
Glasses 08/21/2004 09:11 AM

/>It may not be as "official" as the 3D flat panel announced by Sharp on the 10th of this month, but IO Data's "Play3D" LCD filter is much cheaper - about $467 USD compared to the Sharp display's $1500 USD price tag.

Seeing as how this is only a filter, you have to wear those goofy glasses, and it's only supposed to work with a certain LCD monitor of IO Data's, I'd say wait for something better to come down the pipe. Still, products such as this being introduced are a good sign that the market may turn to 3D displays, something the adult entertainment industry has been lobbying for years.

EU: A limit recognized?

EU: A limit recognized? 07/27/2004 09:36 AM
Stefan Bechtold writes that the EU Commission (ok, a staff report) has decided that copyright terms for recordings in Europe should not be increased beyond the current term (50 years after publication), despite the growing pressure of recording labels to increase the term to "save" (as they put it) some of the most important Rock from entering the public domain. The story is getting press in Europe. (Independent, BBC< /a>). This is an extremely important development in this battle. For once, a government-related entity has recognized the truth (or at least, not had its recognition crushed). I've already been talking to archives that are working on the idea of releasing all the recordings they can when they pass into the public domain on January 1, as a way of demonstrating the value of a wide range of work becoming available, unencumbered, for widespread use. Here in the U.S., we'll be able to celebrate the same in, um, 2019. Till then, for your listening pleasure, an oldie (first posted here last July): a 1937 radio program from the Columbia Workshop about creative works passing from the "copyright lane" into the "public domain".

That's of course if we stop adding new movies and we've been adding faster than we've been watching. At least they've mostly gotten back to their 1-2 day delivery time over the last month. p.s. happy new year everyone....

Next Windows to Limit USB Key, iPod Use

Next Windows to Limit USB Key, iPod Use 09/09/2004 09:00 AM

CNet is reporting that Microsoft's upcoming Longhorn version of Windows will have tools designed to help businesses prevent the use of USB keys, iPods, or any other mass storage device that can be connected to work computers, all in the interest of protecting company data. Sounds like a cluster to me, but if iron-fisted sysadmins really feel like they need to lock down USB ports, an operating system-level tool is probably better than nothing. That being said, this is, at best, just a small part of an overall security solution.

It still sounds like a case of "OMG FLOPPY DRIVES?!?!" The data still leaves the company inside the minds of the employees, too. What is Microsoft doing to prevent data loss via the brain, huh? Clearly, there is a serious security hole there. My advice is free booze after 3:30.

More on Google Size Limit

More on Google Size Limit 10/28/2003 11:08 PM
Previously we reported on speculation that Google may be hitting a size limit: standard C coding uses 32-bits of storage for numbers, which means that Google might be running out of numbers to identify new documents with. Adding further credence to this theory is the fact that Google has finally added more pages to their results, but only by using a separate supplemental index. I can't think of any good reasons to do this except to get around the size restriction....
