That's not best practice though is it and I completely disagree with the |
16 |
rules you seem to believe the english language has too. |

18 |
It is not a difficult problem, just FUSE is not expected or intended |
19 |
for that, if that changes it is easily fixed immediately by the admin |
20 |
or by the packager preferably in concert with some root management body |
21 |
or project. |

Many/All of these issues that have come up are actually of 0 effect, we |
24 |
are not talking about preventing users from merging them as most Linux |
25 |
users do because they just hit ok ok ok in ubuntus installation but |
26 |
about a major degradation due to some devs whim and without I might add |
27 |
proper community involvement or commentry ALLOWED. One things for sure |
28 |
real problems will arise directly due to this merge if this merge |
29 |
becomes standard and possibly with won't fixes used leading to |
30 |
pointlessly breaking existing servers and linux becoming even more of an |
31 |
unorganised mess. |

On windows production machines I arrived at putting c: on it's own |
34 |
smaller partition and program files on a larger partition. It meant I |
35 |
could have many more c: backups and restore much more quickly too |
36 |
resulting in much higher uptime and reduced loss in the cases that |
37 |
registry restore wasn't good enough and system restore is crap. With |
38 |
windows 7 it's not so beneficial as windows 7 is huge but still useful |
39 |
as everything is getting huge on windows these days. You do get the |
40 |
occasional dumb program perhaps fixable with a drive link within c:. |
41 |
|
42 |
Windows 8 should be more reliable but I expect brings new issues in this |
43 |
area due to app restrictions and where sandboxing could have been used |
44 |
for security instead. |
