Deluge is available for Windows.

Stick an e- in front of it. Magic!

If the lawsuit had succeeded, the effects would have been so widespread and so damaging. With so many powerful corporations affected, perhaps the government would finally be forced to promulgate some authentic patent reform. (In other words, this lawsuit was so crazy, it just might have worked!)

Or, just press ESC before it forwards you to the blackout page.

Well, with an electric car, you move the emissions to the industrial area that hosts your local coal plant, and so hopefully make the neighborhoods you drive in healthier places to live. Similarly, the uh, network ecosystem of the, uh kernel environment... Ugh. This is the one time when a car metaphor won't work!

You've made clear the problem that Boston's subway stations tend to be within walking distance of each other. But there's no such problem in DC, where you usually have to drive a long way between stations. And only some kind of homicidal maniac would want to drive in DC traffic!

Wait a sec...

Gol-ly! Is there anything those Google engineers don't know?

As I understand it, that kind of problem is exactly what motivated the kernel change that Phoronix called a regression. All hell would break loose on some systems if ASPM was enabled, so the kernel developers disabled it by default. That change led to increased stability at the cost of decreased energy efficiency. If the regression is fixed, it should mean systems like yours can use ASPM safely now.

Phew! I had seriously doubted that Microsoft had a hand in this.

If that volume contains the root filesystem, then you won't be able to boot.

For whole disk encryption, TrueCrypt installs a driver between Windows and BIOS that provides transparent crypto service to Windows. And it's only for Windows. For Linux whole disk encryption, something like LUKS is needed.

You can't encrypt the Linux root filesystem with TrueCrypt. That's where the other tools come in.

Previous specialized search engines including Cuil, Hakia, Powerset, Clusty, and RedZ--each had a special trick, but they've all faded from memory

Indeed; I don't remember any of them existing.

FTFA:
...and the reporters have filed their stories in Googled Docs instead of Microsoft Word.

I guess they meant they used free-as-in-beer software for that edition -- or whatever Googled Docs are. (Perhaps you get them when you type TheGoogle into a Word document?)
