Good NTFS support on Linux has only been around for the last 5 years or so. and no thanks to Microsoft of course. Before that it was fairly risky to write to NTFS partitions from linux. In the media-streamer world, there is a lot of demand from users to manage their NTFS based portable storage from embedded Linux based streamers. Despite commercial 3rd party NTFS drivers, it still seems a bit risky to me.

One thing I want is more control over who see's which photos I'm tagged in. (not my own photos).
I want to set visibility based on either the tagger or the owner of the photograph.

At the moment you set inclusion and exclude groups but it applies to ALL photos you are tagged in.

For example , I may go out with a rowdy bunch, and dont mind them seeing my less flattering moments, but I also want family to see more sedate photos I'm tagged in.

Facebook has taken all the fun out of getting irresponsibly drunk.

The HDMI cables, are just like usb cables , camera filters or any other accessory to high ticket price items.

Retail shops aggressively discounts the TV, Camera, BluRay player, and then makes their money back on accessories.
Never buy accessories in these types of establishments unless you need it now or next working day.

Shoppers will agonize over saving £20-30 on a £500 TV, then blow those savings on accessories, because the lower price of accessories, does not require so much emotional investment.

I don't believe there really IS a GAS SHORTAGE.. I think it's all just a BIG HOAX on the part of the plastic sign salesmen -- to sell more numbers!!
