I would rather have my kernel only swap when needed and this is when it runs out of memory.
You really don't want your kernel swapping when it runs out of memory. That is too late and will kill performance. Instead, your kernel moves pages that are not used to swap so that it can be freed for other, more important things when the need arises. That is a much more efficient way to manage memory.
That said, the kernel provides tuning parameters that will give you what you want.

Jalapenos shipped in from areas who where more stressed will be hotter, And that is pretty much he only way to know.
Agreed. And you can look for signs of stress on the skin of the Jalapeno. There will be white striations on the pepper. The more the merrier in my book. It's only a guideline -- there will still be lots of variation in heat. But, in general, the more skin damage the hotter the pepper.
Hashtag and At are just a condensed form of markup. They are useful for entry of tweets but completely unnecessary for displaying them.
Except they make it readily apparent how to compose a tweet -- even for new users. #dying
Not sure they can be unlawful combatants unless there is actually combat taking place.
Ah, yes. It was vacationing Russians that took over the Crimean peninsula. They saved some money by parachuting in rather than taking a commercial flight to Sevastopal. (The checked bag fees are brutal!) And I hear combat gear is the newest fashion statement out of the Moscow fashion district this year.
Citation? I have a hard time believing the Geneva Conventions condone a bullet to the head for anyone.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summary_execution#Exceptions_to_prisoners_of_war_status
According to Article 4 of the Third Geneva Convention of 1949, irregular forces are entitled to prisoner of war status provided that they are commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates, have a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance, carry arms openly, and conduct their operations in accordance with the laws and customs of war. If they do not do meet all of these, they may be considered francs-tireurs (in the original sense of "illegal combatant") and punished as criminals in a military jurisdiction, which may include summary execution
Emphasis mine.

I think you missed that bit.
Assume there exists a spherical cow in a vacuum...
No, it's what we get from the pro-bitcoin crowd. The people who think impossible-to-regulate transactions are a good idea happen to have a 100% overlap with the set of people who have a novice's understanding of economics, and apply that cudgel to all ideas.
I don't know that I agree with that 100%. I've seen people that think they understand economics be all for it. I see it as driven by engineers (among others) with no education in the Humanities, having a complete lack of understanding about fundamental aspects of human nature.
Dependable banks require that those running them, and those depositing money into them are not GREEDY BASTARDS
Let me re-write that for you in a simplified form:
Dependable banks require that those running them, and those depositing money into them are not Human.
If Microsoft really wanted me to stop distrusting them, they'd ask the user which search provider they'd like to use (or just choose a random one) rather than make Bing the default. Instead, they are using their position in the market -- again -- to limit choice and tilt the field to their advantage. If they didn't have the ability to make Bing the default, there is no way it would have the position that it does today. Microsoft still has a monopoly power on the desktop. And they continue to abuse that power. When forced to compete on equal footing, we get real competition. Some, like XBox, are successful; some, like their mobile platforms, are not.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
