As a bonus, if you link to jQuery using the code.jquery.com URL, people's browsers will likely have it cached.

Please don't!

1) NoScript users hate you :-P
2) You are now depending on another site's availability for your site to function
3) I'm sure jquery.com or google.com or whoever is hosting your 3rd party script(s) loves your traffic information

I do agree that you should always specify an exact version of jQuery. Never use jquery.latest in place of jquery.1.2.3.

Software raid via mdadm is a good option. Setup a raid 1 or 1+0 md device for your two disks. E.g. /dev/md1 = raid1 of /dev/sda1 + /dev/sdb1. Now format and use the /dev/md1 partition as full disk encryption, or a truecrypt container with ext4 inside, whatever you like. Now when one disk dies, mdadm emails you, and you can still read/write to the array (where only one disk is active).

I tend to partition and max out the available space on every drive, so LVM is an unnecessary layer for me.

You still need backup for file corruption, accidental deletion, or when both drives fail at the same time.

1999 called, they want their multiple windows back.

I don't see anything in the Chrome store that's even close to TabKit vertical tabs.

"Tabs Outliner" for Chrome is only a step up from "Side Tabs"... the tab bar is still horizontal and over crowded, and now I need to manage another window to focus when switching applications. It's decent, but needs to be in the same window as the browser and replace the existing tabs.
