Are you sure you weren't just watching YouTube with the HTML5 renderer?
I use OwnCloud for that sort of thing. It's a little slower, but it's a hell of a lot more secure than Dropbox and no silly limits on storage, other than what size hard drives my company can afford
It's nice that all these huge companies are so interested in control of everyone's data.
I think I'll stick with my OwnCloud server for syncing files across devices for the time being, thanks.
You must be new here.
Surely Social Security is just a savings scheme for the wealthy, no? What's the pension worth where you live? Still enough to live on I hope.
Man I remember those BT878 cards. Leadtek WinFast 2000 in my case. Terrific cards that, as you say, just worked in Linux.
That is not discoverable.
Where's the command for "Please show me the DTP programs on this computer"?
For a FLOSS alternative to Ghost I now use and highly recommend Clonezilla.
It's amazing what an all-expenses-paid vacation to the Bahamas can do for one's point of view...
Also drop the " censor, censor, censor" rhetoric... You are free to publish this anywhere else. Why don't you just make a site with rejected wikipedia articles, where people can work on them till wikipedia is ready to accept them.

I guess I think of it as if you leave your front door open, how much blame must you accept when thieves come in and take your stuff?
Re-install/re-image, effectively the same thing in this context.
An upgrade trashing all of
The newest fun here is that Windows 7, even when sysprepped, will still occasionally barf when cloned to a computer with different hardware. An operation that is trivial in nearly every Linux-based configuration.
You'll have to wait for the next "average Linux user" there, sonny. I have been doing system administration for two decades and have seen Linux systems, yes both rpm and deb based, badly messed up from updates. Some have required several hours work to get back running again. But, repeating myself, nothing that has required a complete reinstall. And it has been several years since I have seen an update require more than a few minutes work post-install.
It's undeniable that dams have a significant environmental impact. However these are a one-off expense, an overhead. They are not dependent on the amount of energy produced so while it gives *some* argument against building new dams, existing ones should be maintained and upgraded so they can generate as much power as possible with effectively zero environmental impact per GW. or diminishing impact per GW if you factor the overheads over time.
Funnily enough I saw an article yesterday about a fish cannon, purportedly to send fish over dams to spawning areas.
There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
