2013/4/9-5/18 [Computer/SW/Mail, Academia/Berkeley/CSUA] UID:54647 Activity:nil | 4/8 What's a good free e-mail provider? I don't want to use Gmail,
Yahoo, Outlook, or any of those sites with features I never use that
track my personal info and keep changing their interface. I want just
simple e-mail without privacy issues or all the baggage these large,
for-profit companies are adding. I might even be willing to pay.
Recommendations?

plans for it getting fixed? I can run wall, but wallall just gives an
error.

2011/9/14-10/25 [Computer/HW/Drives] UID:54173 Activity:nil | 9/13 Thanks to Jordan, our disk server is no longer virtualized. Our long
nightmare of poor IO performance should hopefully be over. Prepare for
another long nightmare of poor hardware reliability!

Just kidding! (I hope)

2010/4/28-5/10 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:53807 Activity:nil | 4/28 Win 3.1 was more widely adopted than Win 3.0. Win XP (5.1) was more
widely adopted than Win 2k (5.0). Now it looks like Win 7 (6.1) is
going to be more widely adopted than Vista (6.0). Is this a trend on
Microsoft x.0 versions being bad?

2010/3/8-30 [Computer/SW/Unix] UID:53745 Activity:nil | 3/8 I have a mod_rewrite question that I think should be straight-
forward but I think I'm not getting something.
I have a virtual server with some root, say /home/user/public_html/
and in there I have two subdirs, say /app1/ and /app2/
and i want the following:

2009/2/26-3/5 [Computer/SW/Unix] UID:52653 Activity:nil | 2/26 If I want to rsync a perforce or svn directory while users
are checking things in, could I wind up with a corrupted copy?
\_ sure why not. if you are really cool, your copy of the svn
repo is on LVM, and you snap the LVM to copy it.
\_ It'll seem less cool when you realize you've taken a snapshot
of a block level device, which only guarantees that this set of

2008/11/29-12/6 [Computer/SW/OS/FreeBSD, Computer/SW/OS/VM] UID:52129 Activity:moderate | 11/29 I'm experimenting with virtualization, and as a poor college student
I'm wondering what the best alternatives for virtualization are, and
how best to cut my teeth on messing with non-linux platforms (or I
guess interesting stuff on Linux would work too). Right now I've got
FreeBSD7 running on KVM on my home computer (on a Core 2 Quad), and am
somewhat at a loss as to how to use it. (More details: bridged

2008/5/5-9 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:49885 Activity:moderate | 5/5 Any recommendations for data recovery software for NTFS partitions?
I have an NTFS partition that produces this error in linux:
"ntfs_read_inode_mount(): Couldn't find first extent of $DATA attribute
in attribute list. $MFT is corrupt. Run chkdsk"
\_ Eh... I'd try it with a real windows box before assuming the
partition is bad. NTFS itself is pretty solid. How old is the
