Except a lot of 'em don't have sugar - at least ehre in the US, high fructose corn syrup has replaced sugar in a lot of the sodas. Which of course means the imported Coke from Mexico or the "kosher for Passover" bottling now has a market, since it is still made with sugar. And of course, the marketing folks get a kick, as evidenced by the "throw back" versions of Pepsi products...
1) Applications don't require drivers. The hardware does. Linux supports more hardware than just about any OS out there... granted, it may be old or very esoteric hardware, but it is supported.
2) Many times, it doesn't matter what application you use so much as are you able to complete a specific task and work with specific file types. You need to submit a docx file to your English teacher for a term paper? You can create it in many different word processing suites - some from MS, some Free software, some other commercial/proprietary software. No matter which, File -> Save As... and wallah
Just change the release name in your/etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list file, apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade, and then apt-get autoremove
You can always mount/home as a separate partition, device, or even better as a RAID array (1 or 5, 1 should be sufficient). Then when you want to re-install completely just wipe the OS and after your first boot remount/home where it belongs
Yup. Only non-drug treatment that worked was electrical implants for stimulation. Unfortunately, the "temporary" implants worked and were paid for by insurance, but insurance won't pay for the long-term ones, and private pay would be about what a new car costs...
Cluster headaches are kinda weird. Some of them just happen, some of them have triggers. A friend of mine suffers from them... triggers for him include various nitrates/nitrites used in preserving food (no pickles, commercial jerky, etc), MSG and other "flavor enhancers", chocolate, alcohol, and the bad part for him most narcotics. When he gets on a hard cycle of them, sometimes the only thing he can do is get to an ER and a doc who is willing to give him a massive dose of demerol - enough to keep him out for 6-8 hours, or enough time to break the headache cycle *and* the headache the narcs give him.
Dried or fresh? My first dose of mushrooms was enough caps to cover the palm of my hand ($3). Stems were there, but not recommended since they "tend to add more of a speed-y effect to your drip man"
The problem I see with this - and base this statement on first hand experience - is that you either tend to be very distracted and always looking at the next thing, or you tend to be incredible focused on one single thing for a very long time.
Granted, dosing wasn't an exact science and far from measured, much less consistency of product between uses. And the only "micro" part of any dose I did was when a friend found some 15+ year old purple microdots when he was moving (they still worked, sorta... only had a couple and there were 4 or 5 of us sharing them and we all ended up adding some blotter to our systems to really get going)
Not sure on the PearsonVUE side, but the regular Pearson Learning - for access to their publisher created resources/course content - stores passwords as clear text.
I've reported it as a BIG issue to our local sales rep and the regional boss rep, but I don't think anything has been done about it.
Except with that model, the CC company can still tie OTSG back to davecb
If that is acceptable to you then it is a working solution... but as far as for use in situations where not being able to associate any two given identities is a critical factor, then it won't work.
As soon as PHP totally gets rid of the mysql_ family of functions, and forces everyone to convert to mysqli function/objects or PDO, it will fix itself. As a bonus, quite a few folks may make some beer money fixing all of the suddenly broken scripts...
The problem with search results is that the mysql_ functions for a loong time were the only way to do the task, and with the plethora of tutorials/information out there the sheer number of them overwhelm the "new" stuff (mysqli and/or PDO)
Personally, having a LAMP setup on localhost, with a good text editor (syntax highlighting, multiple docs, etc) and some way of watching the apache error log (hence the konsole terminal at the bottom of kate) is fine for what I do.
But if there is a free IDE that I can Just Use without having to change my work flow, etc. I'm always open to suggestions
For just opening a terminal on my desktop/laptop, I'm using the default mate-terminal (I run Mint w/ MATE).
However, when I'm coding (usually PHP stuff) I use Kate as my editor, and it can use konsole as a terminal at the bottom of the editor. Instead of toggling back and forth between windows, or even switching my focus from one to another on my dual monitor setup, I can see webserver error logs or whatever right there in the editor.
TFS mentions "double clicking a file" - I took that to mean that someone downloads the file from the server and double clicks it on local machine, or someone is browsign the directory on the server itself (as their local machine) and opens files...
Well, if you are running on a Linux of Unix/BSD host, you can use the "file" utility.
Of course, that means that you need to have shell_exec() or exec() or whatever your programming language of choice uses for running shell commands, and the other security dangers/issues involved with allowing that type of stuff.
What may be best/easiest/safest would be to NOT allow direct HTTP access to the uploaded files, but rather use a wrapper script that would send appropriate headers to make the browser believe that the file is of the type "x-application/unknown" or whatever content type that will force a "save as" dialog instead of opening with a plugin, auto opening with a local application, etc.
What exactly are you backing up? Entire disk images? Or just user files?
If disk images, then something like clonezilla, perhaps set up to boot from a TFTP server. Boot the machine via WOL, kick off the TFTP, automatically dump the image out to a server using the machine name or MAC address or something as a unique identifier
For user files only (ie, My Documents or whatever) can you set up network based home directories ? And then just back up the server they live on.

Isn't seamonkey the browser+email+composer all-in-one bundle? Like Netscape Communicator 4.x was?
So... some shared libraries. Isn;'t that what shared libraries are for?
Slashdot doesn't sort by score, rather it can filter by score. Threading, date/time, etc. all keep their precedence

No, that link was about a company throwing a fit and demanding that their bug be solved *immediately*
