  1. Re:*The* Quickest, Not *Its* Quickest on Tesla Unveils New Model S, Its Quickest Production Car (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 2

    ...Tesla should definitely offer some super-secure teen-driver proofing so your kid with the freshly minted driver's license doesn't squish himself on a joy-ride whilst you and the missus are reconnecting on holiday.

    They do. It's called valet mode: An in-depth look at ‘Valet Mode’ for the Tesla Model S

    It does.

    Try:

    display:table-cell; vertical-align:middle; height:100px;

    You can do it in a table cell with a wrapper div, even if you set the width on the table. See example below:

    <!doctype html>
    <title>word-wrap:break-word test</title>
    <style type="text/css">
    td {
        width:50px;
    }
    td > div {
        word-wrap:break-word;width:inherit;
    }
    </style>

    <table><tr><td><div>

    </div>
    </td>
    </table>

  4. Use xz compression (lzma) on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Won't Fit On a CD · · Score: 4, Informative

    Why won't ubuntu just do as fedora has done? use xz compression on the squashfs image. The live image for fedora is now 565 MB, but would have been more than 700MB if using gzip compression as ubuntu does. Reading from cd/dvd or even flash drives and harddrives (except ssds) are so slow compared to the cpu today anyway, so it would probably be faster in most cases.

  5. Re:Thanks on Alan Cox Quits As Linux TTY Maintainer — "I've Had Enough" · · Score: 2, Informative

    It sounds like you doesn't understand what Linus is saying. He isn't insulting OGAWA by telling him that what he found out is obvious. He is just saying what _emacs does_ is an obvious assumption and therefore the commit in question is "a buggy pile of shit" and argues that it should be reverted.
