Dedicated Servers Questions:


Question #1:

Please clarify these Wikileaks technical requirements?

On the Wikileaks website I read that they are looking for grouping to support their technical infrastructure. As I do not hit a deep understanding of profession would you please vindicate to me what this effectuation in clear english. Here is what Wikileaks wrote:

"Servers become trouble-free and wrongfully fortified, code is uniquely challenging. If you crapper wage rackspace, power and an uplink, or a sacred server or hardware space, for at small 12 months...."

What servers are they talking about? Does WikiLeaks provide the equipment with its hard software? How do they wait the open to implement this?
How does a noncombatant provide rackspace, or an uplink or dedicated server? And for 12 months?? What does that mean?
What are they hunting for exactly. Why the time frame? What category of hierarchy is the setup they are disagreeable to implement? Who are fit candidates for this category of work, local machine warehouses or something?

Again, I don't work in this field, so if someone would vindicate what Wikileaks is hunting to do, I could understand their agenda/ infrastructure a lowercase better.

TIA

Remember, k/s is "NOT" kb/s or kbit/s or kbytes/s or kbps or sumthin lik that.

Question #6:

Question About AMD Opteron 12-Core Server?

OK, this is the underway killer CPU...and it sells for the aforementioned toll as an Intel 980X. I do earnest audio/video editing...and I have considered using a server as a band of my individualized workstation and as a general user computer.

The question is...is it impolitic to ingest a server another than as a sacred duty computer. IOW, could I set the server up so that I could do both my professional impact MAYA, etc. AND as my PC for things same existence my bag stereo setup. My friends are split on the issue...so I would same whatever added input.

Thanks.
@B: I would be using a meshwork recording card...as substantially as two sound cards. I hit tried using straight high modify consumer recording game before, and they just don't cut it for most professed apps. As daylong as it ran a decent network card...and an M-Audio good card...and an HT Omega good bill for home stereo ingest PCI I would be happy.
@Jack: So true...and I don't want to use LINUX. I hit a ton invested in my sound gear, and all of a explosive it becomes heritage stuff. :-

Frankly, most of the studios ease use XP, unless they are at a point where they can justify the cost of newborn sound/video hardware.

MAYA runs multi-threaded, but still... 1,000 foor a 980X? I know this is Opteron would be a server, but I also want some I eventually move to help multiple purposes.

y important care is that the Q9650 I use now is still a enthusiastic CPU...and that freaking Law of Diminishing Returns does colouration all of my decisions.

Question #7:

do all consoles have matchmaking ?

do all the consoles hit matchmaking and no dedicated servers ? module i be activity halo 3 with people only in my land ? cuze if thats the case im not purchase a console

Question #8:

Which is better: XBOX 360 or PC? *PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION FIRST, OR MOST OF IT...*?

I know! I know! I know that PC's have much better graphics! I don't requirement a whole article on how Fallout 3 looks gorgeous on a PC compared to an XBOX 360... Here's the point: I have both systems, a high end PC and XBOX 360, and savor activity on both. However, I have detected that the number of players is rising on XBOXs these days, and I was wondering why that is... I created this question to not only say what I love about both, but to hear ground everyone else chooses which they prefer... Here are MY views on things: I love both PC and console gaming, but I would hate to threefold up on all my games, for instance, I have already bought 2 versions of all of the Call of Duty games, digit on XBOX and one on PC. As you haw know, this is not exclusive expensive but redundant. I understand that these are hornlike nowadays for everyone, and that is why there are more housing gamers attending than there have been in a while: in order to play a modify PC game with beatific graphics, you requirement a pretty pleasant PC, which crapper outlay anywhere from 400 - 4000, not including monitor, headset, speakers, etc. patch it can cost exclusive fractions of that by buying an XBOX 360, only 200 - 300 for the actual console, not including the television setup, speakers, etc. and have not as beatific graphics, but a recreation and memorable experience nonetheless. I am fortunate enough to have both, but I threw it out there for reference. Most of my friends praise most their XBOXs and the games they have, and I poverty to play those games with them, but I would much prefer using a mouse and keyboard over a controller for most of the games XBOX offers. I do not dislike the controller, I am just a large fan of the mouse and keyboard, as it delivers crisp and precise movements and curb over the XBOX controller. I LOVE XBOX LIVE, everything about it is awesome, the liberated "free" with a 50 Gold XBOX LIVE subscription IGN Insider Moves, OXM, Major's Minute, the full lot, but I love Steam as well. Not only does Steam substance many dolphin deals on games and hit mega income on nearly everything, STEAM IS FREE! I love when I come bag from purchase an XBOX game, artefact the mettlesome into the housing and play it, without any artefact or waiting, which crapper verify anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours. I could tending inferior where I played, whether on a seat or a comfy chair, but I enjoy playing on the aforementioned console with my friends, which is impracticable on a PC. I am a big fan of the PC's highly advertised "Free DLC" through updates and patches, vs stipendiary 10 - 15 for XBOX DLC. However, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 for the PC has tested my patience and approval for Steam games, as I hit run into some hackers and cheaters that smash the mettlesome for everyone. Dedicated servers are awesome, as you crapper encounter some correct you wanted: gametype, map, mods, player numbers, hardcore/normal health, etc. and tie that game in an instant. But playing in a lobby adds a dimension of unknown and uncertainty Who am I playing with? What is the incoming map? which is also different and enjoyable. In my honest opinion, both the PC and XBOX 360 are pretty evenly matched in terms of fun, playability and entertainment, but as of right now, and the foreseeable future, I think that most of my instance module be spent on my PC, as it is in my instrument , and has been, the prizewinning artefact to play recording games. There, I have cursive my essay, the point I'm trying to attain is: Which do YOU think is better: the PC, or the XBOX 360, and WHY?
I'm compassionate that I wrote so much, and many of you won't bother to read what I wrote. All I am disagreeable to ask is which grouping do you perfer to play games and why? I meet wrote that "essay" to spread my thoughts on the matter. It's meet a matter I find interesting and I desired to wager what another people thought most it... that's all...
