I absolutely loved the "Things I won't work with" articles, very enjoyable to read. And I even learned some things about chemistry in the process. I can only recommend everybody who is even slightly interested in chemistry to read them.

The iOS version of Chrome doesn't use Chrome's rendering and JavaScript engines though, per the App Store rules it has to use WebKit [0]. So, any other browser app on iOS would have the same problems as mobile Safari.

I'd say the advantage of seperating / and /home is that it makes a re-install more painless. You can keep your personal data and config without copying it to another drive and just reformat / alone.

And swap is required if you want to use suspend to disk which is the reasoning the article has.
