Sure. If you want your boot sector to be a super effective attack vector.

The real change was the i486, which was way better and had integrated floating point

A ton of Hollywood movies are shot in Toronto because Ontario offers huge incentives to filmmakers

If they want me to see it they should bring back the writers from season 3-4

Wah, this company isn’t willing to spend time and money supporting my OS that’s been EOL for over 5 years

Native is faster than virtualized, who could have ever imagined.

Stopped reading when she called herself a journalist for writing an opinion column. Opinion isn’t news. Maybe she should get a job at Fox with that attitude.

This meme is a lie. The first appearance of Mario was donkey kong in 1981.

Just change your mx records to point at the new provider, no redirect necessary
