Technology firms to spend $150bn on building new data centres
Google in recent results showed that $ 1.6 billion invested in the construction of data centers only during the three months from April to June
When Google filed its Form S-1 in April 2004, prior to its IPO, it became clear that not only it was already very profitable - to $ 105 million (67 million pounds ) on sales of $ 1 billion in 2003 - but has also invested hundreds of millions of dollars to build a network of servers around the world.
spectators quickly realized that there were hundreds of thousands of servers - and Google itself has made parts. It was at that time the manufacturer of the third servers in the United States. But he has not sold one.
The cost of building a "cloud service" as Google has only increased: in its latest results revealed that 1.6 billion invested in data centers in the three months to April-June This has now become typical Google spending - $ 4 billion per year -. The systems used to index the web, answer questions, advertising, manage email, photographs store and provide maps and Street View photos
- And it is far from alone. Overall, spending on data centers will reach U.S. $ 143bn this year, according to research group Gartner, and $ 149bn next year, continuing a slow but steady growth. The cause? "Big data" as companies try to cope with an increasing flow of information about their company and the other "and the rush to" cloud computing "- so that data can be accessed from any which have an internet connection
- handling "big data" for millions of people usually part control billion. It was the price of Apple dedicated its third data center - in Malden, North Carolina -. It covers 500,000 square feet (4.65 acres) and cooled by water from nearby rivers
However, the construction of data centers is increasingly a struggle between access to space, and the connection speed. Before the 2012 Olympics, some IT managers in financial centers of Canary Wharf in East London, with frets would not be able to get enough electricity to power its new centers - which would be located near Floor box nonstop commercial valuable precious milliseconds time trading. Some briefly considered moving outside London - but changed his mind and now have additional energy sources in place to deal with them Technology sector

Ask the Doctor: Wireless Uploads, Case Upgrade, and More!
The update without doctor if wire LAN Box Water Cooling and more
USB cable leave behind
I want a better way to transfer photos from the phone to the computer. At this point, I can connect my camera to the computer via USB and use the "drag and drop" function. I know you can also use AirDroid on my phone to transfer files over Wi-Fi. The third option is to use the instantaneous load Dropbox to transfer the file (size, best quality) with my Dropbox account. Then downloads to your PC automatically via Dropbox.
send files via Dropbox optimal?
AirDroid Dropbox and methods are incredibly comfortable and I find myself wanting to leave behind the hassle of connecting via USB. I refuse to change the way, though, because I do not want errors or erosion of data quality. The research I did a few years ago gave me the impression that data errors can occur when a file is sent wirelessly. Is there a reasonable risk of data loss using AirDroid or Dropbox, or technology has advanced enough that you can safely leave behind the USB cable?
Tiefenbach Dan
The doctor answers:
any transmission technology has the potential for errors in the data, but that's why all the techniques of data include the correction of errors. Since USB 3.0 Wi-Fi for the TCP / IP protocol, the data correction algorithms are there to prevent errors creep into their data. The doctor never had a damaged or deformed when wireless digital file.
can see for yourself if you want. Take a picture of your phone and copy it to your computer via USB. Send a copy to yourself from the phone and load another copy via Dropbox. They all end up exactly the same. You can test this by using a free tool for comparing files at the bit level.
The doctor took a photo taken last week with a camera phone and email. The file was from the phone via the Verizon network via the Internet with the Exchange server work through RAM PC LAN work, then CPU, hard disk. The same image sent by Dropbox, from the phone through Verizon's network through the Internet to servers on the local network to work Dropbox and so on for the PC. It's a long hop to any file via the mobile operator's network data, not just the Internet. Both WinMerge (free www.winmerge.org) and comparing MD5 Tool files (http://bit.ly/jKhpjR) agreed that the files are identical, little by little.
You should see absolutely no difference between the two files if everything is working properly. If you look at the differences between files, is probably due to a corruption issue equipment, but a problem of this kind are likely to produce errors when running the operating system, too. If you can not read or copy a single image or a Word file, you will probably cough also opens a binary file hairballs. The doctor would not worry about data corruption, but if you move a lot of files, USB is almost always faster. We say "almost" because some cameras / phones through USB transfer speeds pretty atrocious.
In general, however, unless you transfer a lot of things at once, it is normal to leave the USB cable at home.
PCIe x8 SLI
I recently built a video editing / PC games on the Asus P8Z77-V PRO. This is a great piece of hardware, but it's only dual x8 SLI mode. When I install another GTX 670 next to my current and connect the SLI bridge, I see performance worthy to spend another $ 300? How do they compare with SLI in x16 mode?Alex Dalton
The doctor answers:
should see almost twice the performance of a single GTX 670 when you have two in SLI, regardless of whether they are at x16 or x8 mode. You will not see a slowdown despite mode x8, x8 PCIe 3.0 is more than enough for a maximum of two 670S.
HDMI DisplayPort
In?
I've seen discussions on connecting an output of the DisplayPort graphics card to the HDMI input port on a video screen. Cables and adapters are available to make the physical connection. However, I wonder if the rules of DisplayPort and HDMI ports allow a proper connection HDMI output port on the graphics card with DisplayPort input to a video screen. The physical connection is possible, by all appearances, but works fine?
- Dennis folder
The doctor answers:
Nan. You can switch to DP HDMI (or DVI or VGA), but does not work in reverse. According to the FAQ DisplayPort (www.displayport.org / faq) to switch to DP HDMI in. However "no cost-effective way," it is likely that the HDMI output is not a single GPU, or one DisplayPort input your monitor. If your monitor has a DVI input, just use the DVI connector on the GPU. If your video card has a DVI output, and it is really only HDMI, use a HDMI-DVI cable, you can get one on Amazon for seven dollars. You miss out on HDMI audio, but at least you have a picture.
Updating an old case
I have an aluminum Lian Li PC-62 was old serves me well for a number of years. I updated the internal hardware a couple of times over the years, and update soon. The case is equipped with USB 2.0 ports on the front. If I upgrade to a new motherboard with USB 3.0, I'd be able to get USB 3.0 ports I / O panel. How is different from USB 3.0 to USB 2.0? Is it just a matter of connecting the port to the right header on the motherboard, or I need to replace the entire port? Do they even sell spare ports for this issue, or should I go with an accessory to go with a 5.25 or 3.5 inch disk replacement?
- Bob Berno
The doctor answers:
USB 3.0 internal connector is very different from the USB 2.0 header, and is not compatible with the previous ports. The header USB 3.0 has about twice the pins. The Lian Li site has a page that shows the packages update for your USB 3.0 (www.lian-li.com/v2/cable/cable.html) models, but it seems that the PC-62 is a them.

Canary Shatters Its Indiegogo Funding Goal For Its Smart, Dead-Simple Home Monitors
Nintendo confirms Wii Vitality Sensor's death, says it produced inconsistent results
Oh, I know you just ... they did not know him at all. Nintendo introduced the pulse detection device to its Wii E3 show in 2009 and said he had heard more than "the future." The future never came, despite assurances that remained occasional device. In a recent Q & A with director Nintendo, Satoru Iwata, analyst puts the device again, and Iwata said he encountered many problems in testing quality control to bring to market.
"We have not been able to develop as a commercial product, because we could not make it work as expected and it was the application closer than we thought at the origin, "said the investor. Iwata estimated that about 90,100 people were able to use the Vitality Sensor smoothly, even though (thankfully) requires working with "1000 1000". However, he admitted, "but [I use the signal of the living body to individual differences] is too much to be applicable to all people." He always likes the Vitality Sensor into a reality, "if technological improvements "permit, but so far, the evidence makes it" enough as a commercial product. "
In other news from Nintendo, Iwata assured investors continue to monitor the quality problems of the employee cafeteria. Seriously, it was a question.

Judge Wright Tells Team Prenda To Pay $80k, Refers Their Activity To State Bars, Feds & IRS
Steele Hansmeier and Duffy ("Principles") are lawyers with law firms broken. Research easy money, conspiring to operate the business and trained AF Holdings and Ingenuity 13 entities (including consumables) for the sole purpose of litigation claims infringement of copyright. They created these entities to protect directors against potential liability and to give an appearance of legitimacy.
AF Holdings
Ingenuity and 13 have no assets other than the copyright of several porn movies. No officers or owners of these offshore entities, but managers are de facto owners and managers.
administrators began his crusade under copyright in 2010, the Pledge Act, which was also owned and controlled by administrators. Their litigation strategy was to monitor the activity of your BitTorrent downloads porn movies copyrights, record the IP addresses of computers downloading movies, to file a lawsuit in federal court to compel Internet service providers ("ISPs ") the identity of subscribers to these IP addresses and sending cease and desist letters to subscribers, offering to solve each claim for breach of copyright for about $ 4,000.
This national strategy was a great success due to statutory damages of copyright, pornographic theme, and the high cost of litigation. Most of the defendants have settled with administrators, resulting profits of millions of dollars due to the numerosity of the accused. These settlement funds lies in the accounts of the directors and not the accounts belonging to AF operations or Ingenuity 13. No tax was paid on this income.
for defendants who refused to comply, the administrators involved in the fraud trial designed to force liquidation. These lawsuits were filed repetitive complaints based on minimal evidence, calculated to maximize the benefits of colonization, minimizing cost and effort.
administrators showed little interest in giving these claims against a particular defendant. Instead of litigation, the case. When you press the discovery, administrators can provide misinformation, even to the Court.
Directors urged lawyers willing, like Gibbs, to pursue these cases. Although Gibbs is responsible for his own conduct before the Court, the directors their actions. In some cases, the Gibbs function in the narrow parameters that gave administrators, which he called "high-level lawyers."Administrators have full control the whole operation of copyright litigation. Administrators define the strategy to use in each case, ordered their lawyers and witnesses involved in providing false information on the case and the nature of its operation and had any financial interest in the outcome of each case.
- administrators stole the identity of Alan Cooper (2170 North Highway 47, Isle, MN 56342) . Administrators fraudulently signed transfer of copyright by "popular demand" by Alan Cooper company without your permission, saying it is a by officers AF. Alan Cooper is not shared AF and has no affiliation with the applicants other than his work as a gardener Steele officers. No other person named Alan Cooper due to AF or Ingenuity Investments 13.
- Gibbs ordered managers to commit the following acts before the Court: the complaints of infringement of copyright based on a single snapshot of the Internet activity files, the names of persons as defendants based on a statistical estimate state assignment copyright with a fraudulent signature. Administrators also asked Gibbs to process these requests if they remained profitable, and reject otherwise.
plaintiffs have demonstrated a willingness to deceive not only this Court, but other courts have emerged. Representations complainants about their activities, relationships and financial interests ranged from feigned ignorance lies errors. But This disappointment is calculated so that the Court grant asylum requests early discovery, allowing plaintiffs to identify the accused revenue sharing and accurate one. Through these requests granted, applicants borrowing authority Court to pressure solution.
This last paragraph is the key to an Account. Given all this, Wright J. discusses what you can do. First, we examine the failure of the commitment of the team to "make sufficient" independent investigations to prosecute any person who violates the copyright had. However, he notes, their main concern is not the lack of research, but rather the attempt to transform a "cover" of this point, as well as "early investigation after the events of Gibbs and the poor there. "In fact, he calls Gibbs certain statements relating to the investigation" a blatant lie ".
Declaration Gibbs is a blatant lie.
