My Dad, the Switcher: Day 140 (TUAW.com)

Mar 13th 2009 11:46PM One thing of note for booting a MacFUSE mounted NTFS bootcamp partition in parallels: ALWAYS "eject" the NTFS partition in finder (or from the desktop. Whatever floats your boat) BEFORE running bootcamp in parallels. Parallels uses it's own FUSE implimentation which doesn't play nicely with MacFUSE, leading to both MacFUSE and Paralells using the NTFS partition at the same time. Data corruption will ensue.

Ejecting the NTFS partition in OSX prevents the problem from occurring, though it should be noted that the official Parallels line is you should not run MacFUSE on a machine with Parallels. See my posts in the parallels forums here:

Nov 19th 2008 12:02AM Now, now, Engadget; you should know better. Your article should read:

"...These bad boys are available in African American, Caucasian, and Oxygen-Challenged on December 4th in Japan..."

One of those controllers might sue otherwise.

Scientists get death threats over Large Hadron Collider (Engadget)

Sep 7th 2008 3:16PM Sheesh, what's up with all the hostility towards Christians? It seems that anyone who has any belief in a supreme being whatsoever is suddenly labeled "fundamentalist" these days, almost as if we are on the same level as the nut-jobs that parked a couple of planes into the twin towers.

There is nothing to fear in the truth. If these experiments confirm my belief that there is a supreme being, and that supreme being is the one described in the Bible great. If they confirm others belief that this universe was self-starting and we evolved over the course of billions of years, also great. The truth is all that matters.
