I don't know if this is the appropriate thread but can we have some better support for F2FS in Ubuntu please? From what I know, we can't even install to a F2FS partition using the default installer.

The modern electric car (I say modern because the first electric car was supposedly built in 1880). No doubt the end of the combustion engine and the end of reliance on fossil fuels will change literally everyone's lives to some extent

Completely agree. I wonder when we are going to see whatever small tech/startup scene exists in the UK evaporate away into France/Germany/other-European-country and whether that will affect any policy change by this anti-tech

Wait what? It corroborates rather than undermines any investigation into what went on during the election process. Anyone in the NSA reading about this (i.e. everyone in the NSA ) will now have all the more reason to step forward if they r

No, the more pressing question is whether it can run, specifically whether it can run without intervention, and I'm willing to bet a lot of money/bitcoins that it can't, purely because it couldn't gain access to the ma

Same thoughts here, but we stand to come off well in any case. The less programming talent being allowed in, the more we can demand. I'm preparing to move on from one contract and going to see if I can triple the rate for the next one.
