How packaging systems should handle kernel updates

As a system administrator, I have some relatively strong opinions on howLinux distributions and packaging systems should handle kernel updates.Since I have just gone through the experience of yet another mass kernelupdate of our servers, I feel like writing them up:

修身半成功

反反覆覆嚷著要減肥,沒兩年也肯定有365日那麼多。

然後因為工傷,痛得躺在床上動彈不得,脂肪一吋吋累積下去。

直到復工時,胖得連制服外套都穿不上,不寒而慄。

從那時開始,天天晚飯後到運動場散步,每星期三次到

青春垂暮安達充

怎好意思告訴人呢?看來我還是很喜歡安達充。那個畫風和人面都極盡簡單、題材和情節重覆、製作公式已經完全被摸透的安達充。那個安達充,好像從未走出過「青春」的陰影,現年已57歲。我沒有很迷安達充經典的《Touch》

夾在中間


有些時候,人是會不知道自己在做什麼的,例如有一天,你會發現,無論你多努力向上爬,到頭來,你不過是夾在中間。

生活艱難,三餐不繼的人,總希望賺更多錢,走出困境。

收入穩定的人,卻會希望換一輛令人羨慕的車子,

Two different usage patterns

Recently, for my version of recently, a shell history meme has beengoing around various places .Thinking about the meme and what it would look like for me has ledme to thinking about two different usage patterns in Unix graphicalenvironments; I will call these persistent and disposable.
