Linux To Be First OS To Support USB 3.0

Posted by timothy on from the three-upmanship dept.

An anonymous reader writes with an excerpt from Neowin.net "Sarah Sharp, a self-styled 'geekess' and Linux developer at Intel's Open Source Technology Center who has recently been working on the Linux USB subsystem, announced on her blog that support of USB 3.0 will soon be integrated into the Linux kernel. This makes Linux the first operating system to support the standard. If you can't wait and have the expertise necessary, she includes instructions on how to get USB 3.0 support in Linux now." Here's Sharp's post.

    Just follow the link.

    Kinda chunky but cute. Reminds me of Heather Graham with a few extra pounds. Not bad, and a geek even better.

    Plus it's better for sex: The lubrication eliminates the need for boring and time-consuming foreplay, and the increased blood flow "down there" helps the ladies with their cramps. Just be more gentle than usual all-around and lay down plenty of black towels.

    Then, when you're done, immediately throw the towels in the washing machine and have a shower together. Just don't look down at the drain unless you're into Norman Bates.

    +1 speaking from experience ^_^

    Anyway, you want fun, you gotta go for the Liberal Arts majors. They read "erotica" and learn all that kama sutra stuff.

    I must disagree. I prefer Christian girls. Though I'm not a Christian myself, those non-religious types all have some kind of hangup. I don't mean one of those girls who fucked half of the planet and decided to get religion when she tired of being a filthy whore. I mean a girl who was raised in a religious household. You find yourself a girl who suppressed her sexuality for all of her teenage years and she'll be ready to explode by the time she's 25. I speak the truth in this, trust me.

    Also, if they're from the former Yugoslavia, it's best not to mention that you thought Clinton was a great president.

    Why would I do that? My parents were married; to each other.
