Sorry, my mistake: wrong wording. I didn't mean data loss, but serious slowdown.
'unless' what? Why so apologetic for Samsung? I still think you can't be affected, or you must be rich. If I pay four-fold for SSD, I won't find excuses for the manufacturer when the SSD is slower than a standard disk running on platters. Why would you? Yes, my movie collection for example: some movies that i didn't watch for years. "Oh, sorry, Samsung 840!" when the movies stutter, or "oh, sorry, Samsung 840!" when copying close to 1 TB takes... wait... 100.000 seconds, that is some 30 hours? And this is still generous, assuming 10 MB/s; while some report even lower transfer rates.
Are you by any chance related to Samsung and try to stonewall criticism?
Wow. I'm surprised how you take a crappy drive like that so easily. I bet you didn't pay the serious money they actually charged for it? And it's no cheapo brand neither; rather the self-declared Mercedes. And the prescribed maintenance is rewriting all data twice a month because it tends to be forgetful. What a fantastic piece of hardware! That is what we ought to discuss here; rather than if a brute-force workaround... just works. Sure it does!
Your attempt on a definition is failing, though you improve on the cited one. Waves have nothing to do with liquids. Sound waves, electro-magnetic waves, bending wave (e.g. skating on ice), even the waves generated by an earth quake prove you wrong. Sorry.
Hmm. For me as electrical engineer, a wave is not what you found in the dictionary reference, and has nothing to do with liquid bodies, and there is not really a ridge or a swell. Your second sentence doesn't help much, because the phenomenon 'wave' is not intrinsically linked to water. I for one see it connected with the notion of 'propagation'. Not much of a sense if we try to enforce precise terminology: electromagnetic waves, sound waves, subsurface waves, surface waves... . Because the context usually specifies what we are talking about. And here, the title is clearly specifying 'Subsurface... Waves'. What more do you want?
Are you, incidentally, Moslem? I dare to ask because this is what I have been told by a good number of my Islamic friends (and which has strained our friendships): "A handful of lunatic people". Maybe it used to be. But when you look at Libya, Syria, Pakistan, IS, Nigeria, Somalia, Kenya, it is rather a very good hand full of millions. And that is nothing to be taken lying down and lying low. Your 'few militant Islamists' are a few million, and therefore, I have to be careful with your argument. And so should you be.
Surprised to see you rewarded with 3 virginal Insightful remarks on this.
Firstly, there was no intrusion into a mosque to Secondly, grill some pork meat there.
Thirdly, I am astonished that you give away your freedom that easily. Are you American citizen, if I may ask?
While I feel that decency is often missing, and I would argue against a caricature of some believe-group being posted on bill-boards, I will insist that they may (if not should) be shown closed-circuit. Because, if I know I'd be offended, I can simply decide not to attend. But these people can not be satisfied with not attending. They will go, deliberately, to feel offended and use this feeling to cut down on civil liberties. Think hard, please, before continuing with this chain of arguments of yours!
And being a prime target wouldn't be a problem if it had proper security...
Oh how naive.
Will you please enlighten the unwashed masses (me), how a system with proper security would not pose a problem like the one underlying this topic? (And please, without resorting to 'shiny', 'easy', 'simple', 'extensible'. I am honestly only interested in security.)
I used to offer WordPress as blog engine to my users. Like.... 7 or 8 years ago. And half of my time was spent updating, upgrading, and cleaning up after WordPress. After close to 1 year I had withdrawn this offer. Is there no way to simply prohibit this piece of malware-spouting horribly bad architectured s**tware that seems to have been lingering about ever since?
I think it's a rich person who has nothing better to do with his money.
... money, plus an obvious desire for self-destruction. Mentally and/or physically. Serious, if it was about the resilience of the device, sensors of all sorts would do for a first go.
Sure you post as AC! Nobody takes you serious with this statement of yours. Not that OpenBSD has anything to be said against it. But OpenBSD is not a desktop-everyday-OS. Only an AC could declare it as such.
Fools rush in where Angels fear to tread. The world is coming down. At least the world of Free Software that was so close to my heart for the last 15+ years. The simplicity of U--nix has reached the EOL. So has modularity. Welcome, to new shores, the new U--s, full of mischievous monolithic blocks that accompany us from after PID 1 to shutdown and start our daemons, log us on, guide, lead, help, protect our systems and its users throughout the lifespan of their sessions. And beyond. From cradle to the grave - from boot to halt.
If this is seriously what you want to know, here is the answer: They work without the appropriate licence, their cars are not checked for fitness, and their insurance doesn't cover it, when they run you against a wall. isn't that quite enough?
But that's not what I'm interested in. Like the other, rather idiot suggestion to change the background decoration. We are not in W95 last millennium. I have set up a panelless desktop that I use at home and at work. It is based on the netbook-plasma 'Search and Launch' activity. I couldn't care less about background image, what I want is my panelless all edge-event based desktop. What's the point then of telling me about the beauties of XFCE, Unity, or what not. To me panels are cluttered, overloaded one-dimensional items (at least, usually they are in a single line with items popping up in the orthogonal direction). Whereas I like a clean desktop with a 2-dimensional arrangement of launchers, groups and whatnot. Popping up for me is - no, not a hidden panel - a 2-dimensional display of reduced applications. Yep, a tad like OSX, and still no panel.
Should anyone be able to point out a desktop that allows this, I'd be happy to know. Or even better: KDE just keeping what it has, and migrate it to Plasma 5 which has clear technical advantages.
... and I am a KDE-person. Wow, holy sh**. I fled from Gnome to KDE some years ago, happy so far, and now it seems I have to look again; for a place to escape. A place that I can configure freely, and one that does not look like a Metro-Spin-Off. Yep, the screenshot on the ostatic-blog mentioned in the summary looks exactly - no, not the same, but like a similar mental breakdown of the people behind the design. On KDE 'Activities' were fine, though abandonware before ever fully developed https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug..... For ages, I have been sitting on my personal configuration of the 'plasma-netbook'. With a 1920x1200 24" monitor. Meaning, *a lot* of reconfiguration. I tried Plasma 5, and - gone it was! Okay, I could stay on Plasma 4 for some more time, though the writing seems to be on the wall. Why do some people tend to think that the market leader is the market leader for their cr** desktop designs? I can promise you one thing, 'Year of Linux on the desktop' or not - none of my Windows users has ever told me how beautiful the desktop was. On the contrary, they usually preferred mine aesthetically, and theirs for the simplicity of functions.
Come on, AC or not, your suggestion is not a brainer. What's the point of paying a FA for sitting there and at least yelling "God, he's coming after me, he pulls a gun! He's determined...." - "Yes, I will" - "Bang" for posterity, or the curious/.-reader?
What systemd does is give a single consistent way of configuring the system. You want security nightmare, how about the 1000's of freaking shell scripts that call each other in a giant mass of spaghetti to configure a traditional Linux system.

Let them burn in Hell (if such a place/state exists).
I wouldn't be that sure.
According to their believe, dying while defending their religion, Islam, will hand them 144 virgins (altogether).
Not that I believed in this rather crude theory, but since so far nobody has come back, even scientifically it can not be totally excluded.

His website says he wants to inspire sustainable living
I hope sustainable living is not going to fail him!
With the added bonus of his mom's basement being unlikely to shift upside down, raining him with the contents of the toilet.
'shift', are you sure?
Cool, then it's a big step forward for humanity if he succeeds.
It's politically incorrect, though I wonder if it wasn't the other way round!?
At least he has balls ...
