The system restore button launched a wizard that let you uncheck all the crapware, and even some useful theoretically stuff like CD burning software. I don't know how it worked prior to the button.
It was quite awesome, and I was a huge fan.
This was on a thinkpad T62 I believe. I actually discovered it because PC decrapifier was taking too long and I was like F this just restore and cope, and a nifty list of applications, drivers, and "helpful" services came up to be unchecked.
I always looked at it as the right to own guns for the sake of violent revolution.
The defense against citizens (rather than the government) is less explicit IMO.
The stuff the NRA does that bothers me are things such as fighting trigger locks, which I don't personally see as any infringement at all, and claiming things such as "if only there were an armed guard" when there was after a school shooting.
And frankly many of its members are crazy gun nuts, though that is really more of a strawman.
I think the ACLU emphasizes the "CL" part, and not the "A" (simply being from America). Gun ownership is unfortunately not a universally recognized liberty.
automatic flushing of files on renames/truncates in ext3, ext4 and btrfs/quote?
I assume this means fighting over following the minimum in the POSIX spec has been ended by Linus weighing in on what he felt was proper (no disappearing of files that existed at boot time).
This makes sense, as Linus is on the whole for more caching than the spec allows for (for performance), but also for integrity. This should allow for caching and integrity.
For evidence that Linus wants to allow for more caching (less syncing), and does not feel strict spec compliance is important, see his discussions about atime.
I am glad that someone from on high has settled this.
I'm lazy and just reposting an earlier comment, the gist is that Wii has fairly good attach rate, and great software sales when the lower rate is multiplied by the higher install base. Also that even with the game cube Nintendo was one of the largest software publishers world wide, in spite of the low install base. The company kicks the crap out of others in the sense that is makes huge amounts of cash, and that is the job of a corporation. Oh yeah, it starts out as a DS apologist, but does use real numbers too.
I have not played a single DS game where the touch screen is a gimmick, it is almost always unused (e.g. Mario Cart DS), and alternate control method that may or may not be better (e.g. advanced wars), or a fantastic edition (e.g. tap for backup item in NSMB). The Wiimote is a different story though often it is used as a very fun gimmick.
This is the American charts, it has the attach-rate at about the same as the PS3 and lower than the 360, of course arguments can be made to drop the Nintendo one by 1 or 2, it is still pretty fricken high in raw numbers of sales. If you subtract out 1 from the attach-rate (for Wii Sports) you end up with 150 million to XBOX 360's 170 Million, and PS3s 70 million. This is in the most 360 heavy region (North America).
Where Nintendo really makes their money though is software. Taking out Wii-play and Wii-sports they still sell more than EA on many weeks, and without licensing fees. Nintendo dominates in total money in the industry by such a huge amount that it isn't even funny. As far as the games industry goes Nintendo is a shrewd company, that is miles ahead of the rest.
Even with the Came Cube they were a major publisher by raw numbers, this is competing against companies selling for XBOX, PS2, and Computers.

Shit,
I meant to add I don't know the specifics in the case. and from what I read there was no allegations that this was anything but Advil.
Pretty much every over the counter drug is a pseudonym for a prescription drug in the my area though.
So it was overheard "You can get Advil from such-and-such" I would say a search (not strip, simply purse, bag, and empty your pockets) is reasonable.
At least it's that way on the east coast.

I thought "business class" FTW.
The thing is, they had the easy restore that made it easy to do a fresh install with all crapware removed.
I was a big supporter, as it was way better than running PC Decrappifier, now this is totally the suck.
Maybe it dissolved instead?
I don't really know, but stopping sublimation doesn't mean it isn't getting out to me, just that it stopped bubbling.
I bet they get that somewhat figured out, as it should lead to better compression too.

That's why we have the NRA,
or if you like less crazy with your gun rights http://www.huntersandshooters.com/

Apparently not
it was a Graduation FAIL.
consumer spending has held fairly well.
It's that other part of the economy that has dropped catastrophically leading to the current problem.
10% of the population without jobs shouldn't effect parking that much, unfortunately for you.
The great depression brought us some awesome things in parks.
Maybe this one can lead to some awesome parks.
All writes could go to the JD, and then be migrating to the SSD while idle.
This would give you at worse, HD Read/Write performance, and at best HD Write performance and SSD read performance.
Well I heard about your mom, so we're even.
probably should be AC here, but oh well.
So now the question becomes: how do we make regulation as efficient as possible?
You do it with a market of course.
Unfortunately that tends to mean a migration to places with essentially no regulation.
Has been set back 3 decades.
Guess we'll keep burning stuff up for power.
Fair enough, but one for potential trade in performance vs security is nice too.
My understanding is that ext3, and now ext4 support a mount option for ordered writing.

I think that relatime breaks the spec.

As for attach rates:

I use Usenet-news.net
They sell by the GB, but it never expires.
They are not an alternative to a good search and provide no client though.
Yes, I would say that a child being able to get 10-15 percent of that just by doing well in school is a great thing in an impoverished area.
Hell, even if the parents are junkies or alcoholics, it may give them some incentive to make sure their children go.
$50/month goes a long way towards buying decent food if the family is that impoverished.
I would hardly call that short term.
Short term is blowing class to get high (for the seventh graders) because the long term is so mild (a decent grade).
Unions don't care I bet.
If it hypothetically allow class sizes to get bigger with better results even then they won't care.
The union does not care at all about new teachers, and existing teachers are pretty much tenured.
I just find the scale of a packed highway so amazing.
Car after car going along so close together and so fast.
In a plane I am flying with maybe a few hundred people, in a car I am driving with an ocean of them.
