Fixing up .rpmnew files
For some reason, rpm in Fedora Core 6 (and I believe Fedora Core 5 too)has become overly twitchy about replacing configuration files; a lot ofthe time it will write .rpmnew files instead of just replacing the oldversion of the file even if the old file is unchanged and the new andthe old file are completely identical.

羊羹、豆乾與鐵蛋（病後小劇場）
算是痊癒，謝謝大家。偏方無數，最後都是楚食剩的藥治住了。雖然現在個肚好漲（可能我又有左啦），但總算是回復了行動力了。希望可以取回被沒收的羊羹、豆乾與鐵蛋。

Henry Spencer on C's volatile
Henry Spencer sent me a reply to my previous entry on volatile that corrects some of my (mis)information, and I amputting it here with his permission:
I fear you've miscalled this one. ANSI C pre-dates aggressive memorycontrollers in consumer CPUs , but it had extensive participation bypeople in the supercomputer world as well, and such things were commonthere long ago.
