Hard drive evolution could hit Microsoft XP users

Mar 09, 2010 - 9:10 AM - by lotuseclat79

Hard drive evolution could hit Microsoft XP users.

Hard drives are about to undergo one of the biggest format shifts in 30 years (by end of January 2011).

Quote:

Windows 7, Vista, OS X Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and versions of the Linux kernel released after September 2009 are all 4K aware.

To help Windows XP cope, advanced format drives will be able to pretend they still use sectors 512 bytes in size.

When RealNetworks Settled on DVD Copying, We All Lost

Mar 11, 2010 - 9:08 AM - by lotuseclat79

When RealNetworks Settled on DVD Copying, We All Lost.

Quote:

RealNetworks just screwed us all by settling lawsuits in which it might have lost--but which might also have given some new life to fair use for digital media.

The post-RealDVD world means that unless there's a major change to the law surrounding copy protection, there will never be a legal way to perform legal acts of copying or shifting protected movies, music, and games.

Take it from a guy who has a special E Ticket. The major movie studios can never sue me nor four other individuals ever for a variety of media-moving activities that you and 300 million other Americans could be subject to lawsuits over. It's like a superpower. More on how we got this pass later.

Pushing the speed limits of quantum memory

Mar 11, 2010 - 3:48 PM - by lotuseclat79

Pushing the speed limits of quantum memory.

Quote:

It feels like quantum computers have barely been invented, and scientists are already testing how extensible the current technology is. A paper published in Nature Photonics this week describes how researchers are beginning to push the bandwidth limits of quantum memory. Using photon pulses and cesium vapor has provided bandwidths on par with broadband connections, rates 100 times those of other quantum memory systems currently being tested. However, the system's efficiency is still very low, and advances will have to be made in other fields before it can be improved.
...
...the baton pass from quantum memory conception to development seems to be underway.
