Drawing of an ordinary gyroscope.

Caption:-
Fig. XVI

Extract from the Introductory Chapter:-
But the most interesting top of all is undoubtedly the ordinary
gyroscope. That depicted in Fig. XVI........ although merely
sold as a toy, is nevertheless capable of illustrating
the gyroscopic phenomena which have been so much made use of in
modern mechanical invention.

From the book
An Elementary Treatment of the Theory of
Spinning Tops and Gyroscopic Motion.

Big Bertha Thing rita

Educating Rita

This film portrays a dominant spouse and a long-suffering student,
to the extent upto and including divorce, book-burning and forced
pregnancy.

There was zero privacy. Any attempt to re-register or change
the password would not work, because the secret could not be kept.

Every posting by the spouse is a violation of OU rules and the students
education, causing real pain. Vetting by one moderator or by several
using a non-public Rita conf. would not work, because the spouse
would use the students name, with all the further alienation
that would cause.

A new policy needs to be adopted. The last resort punishment measure,
needs to be the first resort measure on compassionate grounds;
that of making the student read-only on FC. The student would thank
you for it, but not publically.

It would need to be agreed between ACS and OUSA, which is what
they are there for.

Which precise bit do you claim I redefined?
What was the prior definition?
What have I changed it too?

Bullshit. But hey, at least you didn't sidestep... no... you
claimed someone else did.

Just admit that your remark was incorrect and move on.

Have you ever had a machine that contained more than one physical
drive? How about more than two?

You're an idiot. You statement about Linux is absolutely 100%
WRONG!

>LOL

That is the only task you are likely actually able to perform.

You certainly know next to nothing about Linux... or less.

You've redefined what a "properly installed Linux" is.
