Even worse is when Justin Timberlake did that song "Cry Me A River", when there was already an excellent song by the same name. It just obscures the existing song, and does the world a disservice.

If I have a software RAID that I created under MINT using `mdadm`. will the partition work the same after installing Ubuntu 16.04 or will I have to re-synch the volumes?

It's like on the pilot of Futurama. As Fry leaves the cryogenics he woke up in, the door automatically whooshes open. He stands under it and looks up, only to have it slam down into his face.
On the DVD commentary, one of the writers explained that the future will be like Star Trek, but nothing will work. It's turning out to be true.

Re:An update from Linode about the recent DDoS attacks

So are the botnets that still exist mainly running on the legacy XP boxes?
It says here that it's roughly 10% of machines. It's safe to assume at least half are infected. But aren't they mostly third world?

How do botnets still exist? Wasn't that a problem that should have gone away with Windows XP?

No, it's cassettes too. Reel to reel has "better sound" than vinyl for some people. I'm sure there's some metric or science to back up the argument.
And other enjoy the nostalgia of cassettes and eight tracks. You can hardly walk down my block without seeing someone listening to a 30 year old walkman. That's probably more of a style thing.

Maybe it's because spaces are unicode characters and they are worried that their password system isn't unicode compatible.

Cem Kaner said that all the pedantry about whether or not something is a bug is irrelevant. He says a bug is anything a user perceives as wrong.
I used to worry about calling things not-really-bugs, but when I adopted his viewpoint it gave me a better perspective on what's important in software.
