NaCL works on ARM, but you can compile to pNaCL which runs on both architectures.

Yep, this is the only reason why I subscribe to cable. Even then almost everything I watch on the TV is the on demand stuff, which is probably on Hulu anyway.

Submission + - IBM Creates Multi-Bit Phase Change Memory (computerworld.com)

Submitted by Lucas123 on Thursday June 30, 2011 @10:03AM

Lucas123 writes: In what is likely to be a strong rival to NAND flash memory, IBM today announced it has been able to successfully store more than one bit of data per cell in a more stable non-volatile memory called phase-change memory (PCM). Unlike NAND, Previously, PCM couldn't contend with flash because of its low capacity points. PCM does not require that data be erased before new data is written to it, which reduces a write amplification or wear out and it has 100 times the write performance of flash. IBM researchers say they plan to license the technology to memory manufacturers instead of producing it themselves.

Tried this before, it just starts alphabetically and the system stops when /bin is deleted. Information is still quite recoverable.
