I really don't understand the aversion to nuclear power. This was just discussed yesterday on Slashdot. The majority of the comments there say it much better than I can, but the gist of it is that with spent fuel reprocessing and fast breeder reactors the waste problem is small. The only viable...

You mean MyFace or FaceBug?

That's why I always wear something on my feet around the house. The floor is also freezing cold for 8 months of the year.

Were you wearing shoes when you smashed your toe?

Good for you. I don't have any specific advice for you. I also don't have a related degree to what I do, but it hasn't affected me negatively yet.

See this post.

One of the things Sprint can offer is a 4G network in limited markets. Chicago being one of them. I don't think they have any 4G phones on the market yet.

Auto Insurance can vary widely by geography. This is a comparison by state, however I think the difference would be even more drastic if you could see it by city or zip code or some smaller geographic region. My insurance is around $1000 / year on a 2003 Nissan Sentra Spec-V. I'm single, under...

I would rather jam a q-tip into my brain than ever listen to Klipsch speakers again.

The speakers will last much longer too.

A used system like this would work for you, if you insist on the full 5.1. Just look around at that site, I'm sure you can find something very decent within your budget.

I think you would be much better off just buying some decent front towers and a center. Skip the sub and the rears until you have more money to spend. I would also look to buy something used that cost multiple times more when new. Yes, speakers can be damaged and can wear out, but most people...

If you already have an idea of what you want, check out Audiogon. There's lots of nice stuff on there. My fronts are NHT 2.5i, I bought them in 2000 and I still love them. I believe I paid around $800 for the pair, they originally MSRPed for $1300 for the pair. I heard the Anthony Gallo...

If you have enough RAM you can disable swap and remove the partition. I have 6GB of RAM on my Fedora box and I doubt I ever use any swap.

You would need to get the source. Apply the patch, which looks like it changes 1 line of code and then rebuild the package. Not worth it in my opinion. Or you could just change your key and wait for the next release, which will most likely fix the problem.

What happens if you quit early, are you punished somehow?

Even Hitler doesn't like the iPad.

11 tabs 389MB. I use a lot of extensions too.

The iPhone also uses an ARM CPU, so no recompile is necessary as far as I know.

But why?

The name makes me shudder every time I read it.

You can resize partitions without LVM. I found that resizing a partition with LVM to be a much more complicated procedure than without. I have used GParted to resize partitions several times. There's even a GParted boot ISO you can use to resize your boot partition. GParted doesn't support LVM...

Where are you going?

Maybe we should change the title of this post to I hate Ubuntu.

What's your reason for wanting LVM? I found it just complicated everything for me.

I run Fedora 12 at home and it is fine for a desktop machine, but I probably wouldn't recommend it for a server unless you need the latest release of various packages. Each version is only supported for 13 months from release, so Fedora 12 support ends around December 2010. Upgrading isn't all...

Thanks. Now Live HTTP Headers works again.

What's the name of it now? I can't find it.

You can't get AOL with apt.

I did a shipping cost estimate for a 50lbs package and it came to ~$60 for UPS Ground. Do they weigh more than 50lbs?

It's too bad I would have nothing to do with them, because that's a nice price.

That's why it's easier to just buy an Intel drive. There are 33 OCZ SSDs for sale on Newegg and 13 Vertex.

It's never too late to start.

May I ask why?

I wouid think most netbooks use 1.8inch disks though. I can't even find what size disk the Acer Timeline uses.

Not always a bad thing, especially for a netbook or similar form factor.

I didn't notice the slower write speed, nevermind I wouldn't I have bought this over the X-25M. V is for Value.

I just noticed that Intel is now making a 40GB X25-V, I would have bought that and saved some money if it was available when I bought my X25-M a few months ago.

Built in applications were always allowed to run at the same time. It was the 3rd party applications that weren't allowed to.

Yes, I would think less than $10k.

I doubt the site is worth very much.

Sounds like a pain. This is why loadable kernel modules were invented.

I don't think I would attempt this. After recompiling would I be able to use yum to update to newer versions of the kernel?

What version of CentOS are you using? I run Fedora at home, which is somewhat similar to CentOS and the NTFS kernel module is available in a default install.

I'm #72. I haven't logged in since September 2005.

I was going to suggest some kind of pool a few hundred posts back. What would it be $3 each?

You can just print those from a kiosk at the airport.

Probably not very well for you. Do you work for the NSA?

There's always Amtrak for domestic travel. If you want to go overseas, there's transatlantic ships. Neither of these will work for me for long distance travel until I'm retired or have more vacation time.

You really want to use 3 drives in RAID 0? What are you doing that you need that much STR? I hope you do frequent backups.
