Two suggestions for improving Fedora's PreUpgrade experience

Having just gone through a PreUpgrade experience (updatingfrom Fedora 8 to Fedora 10, yes I am behind the times), I have twosuggestions for how the whole experience could be made even nicer.

First, there should be an option to apply the current updates for thenew distro version as part of the upgrade process, or at least todownload them all in advance so that when I reboot and immediately do a yum update , I do not then have to sit around as my machine downloadsanother gigabyte.


假如我是假的

今天看到一個消息說,原來早前大熱的跳舞肥仔影片 Where the hell is Matt? 是假的,還要是 Matt 本人在一個會議演講上 親自踢爆 。如果這是真的 1 ,那麼 Matt 的影片就真的體現到互聯網其中個特質:虛假的消息和真心的網民。

想想自己第一次


Doc 2.0

My boss showed me his recent discussion with one of the chair professors concerning our patient last weekend. It was not very long – or, I should say, deceptively simple.

"Thank you for asking me to see Mr. X. We did review him on daily basis. As a matter of fact, the blood test requested today was not yet received and hence the parameters are all as yesterday."

"Thanks for your information. I am sure he is in good hands but the patient is very concerned.

《今天的雲》 少年維持的煩惱




少年維持的煩惱   羅毓嘉


輾轉反側、反側輾轉,睡意奄奄一息
我眼瞠目盲,月色冰冰
城市已闔上噪音與光害史詩的最後一頁
鼓膜仍感清醒,震耳欲聾
荷爾蒙召喚思念,召喚庸人自擾
抑或是無話可說的委婉、激烈、或者痛切?
諸般敘

《今天的雲》 深淵





深淵  瘂弦

我要生存,除此無他;同時我發現了他的不快。——沙特


孩子們常在你的髮茨間迷失
春天最初的激流,藏在你荒蕪的瞳孔背後
一部分歲月呼喊著。肉體展開黑夜的節慶。
在有毒的月光中,在血的三角洲,
所有的靈魂蛇立

《今天的雲》 抽樣城市




抽樣城市 許悔之


詩人說,可愛的塞可洛浦之城;而你們
為什麼不說,可愛的宙斯之城?
──Marcus Aurelius

(I)消磁

週一到週四。
錢櫃流行音樂排行與乎
恐佈分子劫機殺害人質與乎
一窺木乃伊的人潮與乎
東非大饑荒
We are the world種種外的

《今天的雲》 金風玉露




金風玉露 楊佳嫻


靜此夜無人在線上
有花幽獨,獨與時間相望
怎樣我又回到當年旅途上
按捺不讓絲綢敞開
一種陷溺的心跳

你早已經是老去了的
老去的不再寫信的人
研究室裡,歪斜的書架底部
平金織錦小盒裡
信束與相片,琥珀中的骸

《今天的雲》 螢火蟲之夢




螢火蟲之夢 凌性傑


用尾端,輕輕,就能頂住全世界的黑暗
死亡或遺忘。我便這樣不由自主的發光

沒有誰教我如何祈求一場露水一頓晚餐
沒有誰教我怎樣尋覓一片水澤讓身體依靠
但彷彿有誰在我們之上端坐凝視
不說話,只安靜整理

The problem of forcing users to make choices (in security)

Sometimes, faced with an apparently intractable problem in security,people say 'I know, we'll leave it up to the users to decide what todo'. What they really mean is 'we don't know what the right thing to dois, so we're going to make the users figure it out'. As the saying goes,now they have two problems.

Let's look at some big reasons that this is a terrible idea, both ingeneral and specifically for security systems
