  6. Re: This was _outlawed_ in the USA? on Federal Law Now Says Kids Can Walk To School Alone (fastcoexist.com) · · Score: 1

    Same here. (Netherlands) Always went to school alone. Primary school was a 20 minute walk. No problemo. Ran into bullies once or twice and changed route but that's it. Now Netherlands was one of the safest places in the world at the time (70ties early eighties)
    Later when I was 11 or so, I went to gymnastics in the evenings by bike and wondered what would have happened if that guy (20-ish) that came running out of the bushes after dark would have been able to run faster. At the time I thought he was trying to steal my bike and I accelerated. I was riding more in the middle of the street at night after that incident.

  7. Most of the thoughts in my head are spam.

  11. Re:Fake overclocking on Locked Intel Skylake CPUs Can Be Overclocked After BIOS Update (techspot.com) · · Score: 1

    I had an official AMD 486dx280 except my computer would only run stable at 66Mhz or on 80Mhz with the secondary (on motherboard) cache disabled. I had better luck with the pentium II 266 I bought afterwards. It would run at 300Mhz (4x75) with no problem.

    apr-get, unlike the mint update program, doesn't give you the option for example to only install security updates or updates that are guaranteed not to break your system. But yeah, a commandline version of it would be highly appreciated.
