Adobe

When updating Adobe Flash Player, Adobe want to install some additional software, and you have to uncheck a check box to avoid it.

I do not like that, and I do not like the kind of people who do things like that.

It is not a decent behavior.

NTFS sector size

Will an NTFS partition created with 4096 bytes sector size mount in Windows Server 2003 if located on a disk set to sector size 512 bytes?

No.

Yes, if the sector size, cluster size, and partition size fields in the boot sector of the NTFS partition are edited to match a 512 bytes sector size.

The tool works with Western Digital external disk drives.

Test with a 3 TB WD Elements disk.

In Windows 7, I get a choice between "XP Compatible" and "Most Compatible (Vista or later required)".

Selecting "XP Compatible" creates an MBR partition table with one NTFS partition. The disk is set to 4096 bytes per sector, meaning that the number of sectors on the disk is smaller than 2^32 and that an MBR partition table therefore can be made.

Selection "Most Compatible (Vista or later required)" creates a GUID partition table with the usual 128 MB reserved partition and an NTFS partition covering the rest of the disk. The disk is set to 512 bytes per sectors.

In Windows Server 2003, the tool does not give a choice. I did not examine it much, but it seems as a GUID partition table will be created, and that the disk sector size is kept as it is, 512 or 4096 bytes.

I did not test in other Windows versions.

I did not find a tool for just changing the sector size of an external WD disk without writing to the disk at the same time. In some situations such a tool could be useful.

Produktivitetskommissionen

Problemet er at hvis man samler nogle folk og kalder dem produktivitetskommissionen, så er der nogle der tror, at det er dygtige folk. Det er det naturligvis ikke, alene af den grund at dygtige folk overhovedet ikke kunne finde på at være med i noget der kaldes produktivitetskommissionen.

Nul putte

Under det slogan er Kvickly holdt op med at sælge buræg. Jeg ville have respekt for Coop, hvis de holdt op med at sælge buræg i Fakta og Brugsen.

TexWorks Todo 1

When I press Ctrl-T I want to check that the syntax is correct, and I want to see the result. But I definitely want the cursor to stay where it is.

Also, I want the editor to be auto saving and logging, and to have user-configurable shortcut keys.
