    It would be worth the cost of the paper.

  2. SMART works for me. on Google Releases Paper on Disk Reliability · · Score: 0

    I find SMART to work at detecting failures. A couple months ago I turned on my laptop and it gave me a SMART error saying my hard drive was going to die soon. But gave me the choice of continuing bootup which I did from a livecd to make one final backup. I never lost one bit of data thanks to dd'ing to another computer on my network.

  5. As a Microsoft hater I still have to root for them on Symantec Brings Complaint Against MS to EU · · Score: 0

    First I bad mouth Windows as bad as anyone and as with my beliefs in it as crap I don't use it. I have used LFS (single boot) for 3 years Linux even years longer and hate the thought of touching Windows but for them to get in trouble for actually putting some work into helping it work better makes me wonder how screwed up this world is.

    2.6.0-test12 You would think that someone from the future would have a faster computer. Or is time travel a new feature in test12 since I would upgrade for it. but really I wish that trolls stop using stats like that and non excistent kernels for a computer and at least try to make it believable.
