HTML5 FTW... Thanks Beastie, that would have summed up my post for this thread haha �e

I use Opera on my Blackberrys only to download large email attachments and files, > 4MB. However, Firefox is my full time web browser on my desktop/workstations as here in Canada, the CRA(Canadian Revenue Agency) and Government of Canada websites only support IE, Firefox, and Safari. I...

I read the article on Phoronix just today and it was a pretty interesting read. However, just recently making the switch from Linux to FreeBSD, I am pretty satisfied with the way things are in the FreeBSD operating system. Everything seems so much more "simplified & organized". Linux too...

I was just reading through the FreeBSD 8.0 Detailed Release Notes ( http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.0R/relnotes-detailed.html ) and I have to admit that FreeBSD 8.0 is pretty beefed up from FreeBSD 7.2. Hope everyone enjoys this release �e

For Christmas this year I would just like to get back to my normal life before I had my head on car collision back in June of this year when a lady had entered into my lane because of her wreck-less driving. Other than that I wish the New Year 2010 will bring everyone lots of wealth and prosperity!

I am a Linux user and now using FreeBSD. Their "jail" system for virtualization is pretty damn impressive compared to my experience with Xen, QEMU, and VirtualBox under a Linux environment. There is also a port of VirtualBox for FreeBSD which will be handy if you want to virtualize something...

I will be setting up a new server with a minimum of 4 hard drives in RAID 5 mode and will be encrypting all the drives with geli. I was wondering if their would be a significant performance increase going with RAID-Z (software based) as opposed to RAID5 (hardware based). I am mainly...
