    Does that mean they removed it?

    Let's not forget The Pirate Bay, people. They've had this up since 03:00 UTC. I told The Pirate Bay that there was no piracy involved, it was perfectly legal to copy Ubuntu discs and pass them around.

    They got all stroppy and took it down immediately.

    As always, back up your computer fist.

    Agreed about the fist. When upgrading, I too curl my fingers into that well-known "computer fist" as I anticipate what I am about to do. But backing the fist up (usually up and to the right, near my ear) is important, so that it will have maximal effect when I pound it down on the desk in frustration, when something inevitably breaks. Or even if something doesn't, to celebrate. A good way to relieve tension, but it does interfere with typing.
