This is a placeholder topic for anything Raspberry Pi.
I might have used this as a media centre, but I never did explore it. USB 2.0 was the killer for me, because I couldn’t re-check torrents which were all corrupt by default with Deluge.

If in doubt, don’t try to sterilize a file by overwriting it.
Overwriting a file isn’t always trustworthy. Caching and other mechanisms (e.g. S.M.A.R.T.) may silently write the file to any other location. There is no guarantee that a file you write will actually be written overtop of the old one.

A recent article devoted to the macho side of programming made the bald and unvarnished statement:
Real Programmers write in Fortran. [ see Real Programmers Don’t Use Pascal ]
Maybe they do now, in this decadent era of Lite beer, hand calculators and “user-friendly” software but back in the Good Old Days, when the term “software” sounded funny and Real Computers were made out of drums and vacuum tubes, Real Programmers wrote in machine code. Not Fortran. Not RATFOR. Not, even, assembly language. Machine Code. Raw, unadorned, inscrutable hexadecimal numbers. Directly.
