Is WordPress unfiltered_html capability deprecated

unfiltered_html

Eberle13 (“User Role Editor” plugin user) asked me a question, why ‘unfiltered_html’ user role capabiltiy does not work under WordPress multi-site? I found the reason and posted answer to the eberle13′s question at wordpress.org.
I curiously played with my test WordPress 3.1 Release Candidate 4 multi-site installation. This problem with using ‘unfiltered_html’ capability still exists in it. I decided to make special post about that as it could be interesting someone else. I tried to insert mordern HTML5 tag ‘<video>’ into post without success – it was removed by WordPress every time I saved the post changes inspite of I made that under account with ‘Editor’ role privileges. ‘Editor’ role has ‘unfiltered_html’ capability turned on by default. What is the reason? Why this capability failed to work?

Remove Old Linux Kernel

Remove Old Linux Kernel

Do you use Ubuntu? If “Yes”, you are familiar with such GRUB bootloader menu items as:

GNU GRUB version 1.98-1 ubuntu 7
Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.25-generic
Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.25-generic (recovery mode)
Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.24-generic
Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.24-generic (recovery mode)

These additional menu items for older Linux kernels make available recover option in case of any accident with your current Linux kernel. It is right. We should to have at least 2 Linux kernels load options: current version and previous one. But with every Linux kernel update quant of such bootloader menu items grows. What to do with it? How to exclude unneeded Linux kernels from the bootloader menu? Yes, that’s possible and (don’t wonder) quite simple.
