The taste changes over time, but is not necessarily better. And most whites shouldn't be aged very long. And I hope you're storing your wines properly otherwise you'll open them to a nasty funk...
I think this old saying evolved from "foo must be aged like a fine wine" to "foo gets better with time like wine." The latter is just plain wrong.
Yes, there are worse things that can happen than a few crashes:
The new Firefox Windows installer - for a custom install location - put the
Firefox files into the top level of my d:\Program Files directory. I did not
want this, so I uninstalled it from the Windows Control Panel Uninstall applet.
It did not uninstall so I logged in as adminstrator and then ran the uninstall.
THe unintall took a long time with lots of disk activity. At the end of it,
about 2/3 of the folders in Program Files had been deleted. I lost dozens of
applications, many of them requiring serial numbers to reinstall, and all the
associated configuration, etc. Included in the carnage were two other Mozilla
installations and my Thunderbird 0.4 installation, and Winzip which of course I
needed to unzip replacements.
Don't use nightly builds unless you actually understand the possible consequences. And for FSM's sake don't suggest it to others!
The reasons matter if you view the slowdown as a problem that you want to fix.
Which they don't. That wasn't the point of their test (and my point). It's up to others to use this information. The person I was responding to was making excuses for the slow down ("Oh, it's probably because it's more secure!").
No, it does not matter. The point of their test was not to determine cause. There could be thousands of various causes.
What they showed is that it is getting slower. Period. Their research appears to be correct and accurate. If it's purely caused by bounds checking in the kernel then so be it. But that's for somebody else to show. But until it is proven this is only a hopeful assumption by people who can't stand hearing bad things about their pet operating system.
Are you saying a political candidate agreed with you on the topics you discussed with him? Seriously? OMG! That *never* happens. Especially not in an election year to a supporter!
</sarcasm>
I bet you felt all warm and fuzzy about it later too...
Nooo, "American" *also* means "of the Americas." It *also* means "a native or inhabitant of the United States." USian is a made-up derogatory term that is no more accurate than "UKian" or "UAEian."
The protocol allows for it, but you can enforce encryption (client-server and server-server) in Openfire by clicking a check-box (may even be the default - I don't remember).

They've been doing that to all politicians for years. You're just noticing?
I think this old saying evolved from "foo must be aged like a fine wine" to "foo gets better with time like wine." The latter is just plain wrong.
Um. Wine doesn't get better with age. It is *aged* but beyond a certain time it goes bad...
Just watch for the old bridge. :-)
I wonder if he, at least, understand sarcasm...
You sound like a moron. And I bet you eat kittens. So please don't tell the rest of us who to listen to.
And when you upgrade glibc, how do you ensure *everything* is rebooted to use the new one?
It's not my bug report, but he does go through what happened in more detail below.

Why would they bring it up? They did a test that shows newer Ubuntu releases are slower than old ones. Does the reason matter?
Why do you need to take your whole family shopping?
Don't have children do you...

Gawd I wish you weren't right... :-(
Their have been TV shows
Whose?
You're right. Most of us don't even finish reading the posts we're replying to either.
ORLY?
In the UK? That would be a miracle!
Just another entry in the iProduct line.
What a stupid argument. Did you know that the SSH protocol *allows* for plaintext passwords ('plaintext' cipher I believe)? Is SSH broken now?
