  1. Ubuntu isnt that hard to learn. There is alot of support on it online and everything has some instructions to installing somewhere. It was the first distro i went into and i liked it. Its like windows (with the some of the menus and commands) but it is alot better... I think that SuSe (and perhaps open SuSe) is the most windows-like since it tries to do everything with a gui (that's the impression that it gave me when I tried it). I personally like Ubuntu because I find that there is a fair balance of gui and command line usage. The only thing that I do not like about Ubuntu is the bloat: PDI apps, server, and bluetooth apps that I will not be using; don't even get me started on the kernel (it's as if everything is enabled). However, with its support and popularity I doubt that it will remain free (as in price) by the end of the year. Based on my experience, you need focus, time, and discipline in order to install more advanced distro's like Gentoo. I'm actually installing Gentoo into a separate partition from a chroot-ed environment with Ubuntu. Freakin' GNOME takes forever to emerge even with the USE flags that I've set, but I'm glad that my gentoo install will not be as bloated as my Ubuntu install.
  2. Someday, the only OS's with the most freedom will be BSD's, Gentoo, and Debian.
  3. I love cold when it's a above 40 and below 60...which is what the temperature should be around here IMO. I'm only complaining because the summers here are so aweful.
  4. http://flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=17308794&size=l http://www.flickr.com/photos/milliped/116393699/ Wouldn't it be a real shocker to see BSOD's on airplane screens?
  5. 70 degrees here in deep Southern California as well. Strange winter, huh? Like when there were freezing temperatures here, there were warmer temperatures in the east coast.
  6. Where's the Fosters and the dashboard cover that says "BRUCE"?
  7. "Body Parts" (Radio Edit) by Wumpscut my darling was crying and i was denying my crimes my crimes and the bell it chimes the pain is gone the war is won soldiers on the field their bodyparts i dealt after the days of fights i trooped through peaceful nights peeling his dead eyes sold to you at my price (x3) muscles! brains! jaws! and veins! stomach! bones! jaws! and toes! bodyparts for sale (x8)
  8. banning the 'n' word in Texas? That'd be like banning cigarettes in France, no?
  9. Yahoo's mail service should provide instructions if you look under a help menu or something. A topic to look for would be "POP Access." Btw, hotmail doesn't allow POP access.
  10. lol that's what I used to think when I saw people in Mexicali wearing masks. I was thinking "do they people expect to get SARS? ?" Turns out they just had colds or sniffles.
  11. I have to agree with Neuron there. Look at that. We've just started 2007 and there are already arguments as if it were 2008.
  12. Wear a surgical mask if you have to work.
  13. Put it on your key chain? Have a piece of clothing tailored with it? Make some equipment that will utilize its power? Sell it on ebay? Put it inside of something to make it look cool?
  14. Damn, I think that next year will be an even more intense election year. I believe that Hillary's people have already started some of the fire by saying that Obama attended a radical madrassa when he was living in Indonesia. He's not even a Muslim. And people please pay close attention to the candidates and their stances on x and y. If you don't agree with their values, look to another candidate.
  15. I won't be watching the Super Bowel
  16. "Digital Drug" by Binaural Beats I can't stop listening to it. It's flocking awesome.
  17. Btw, in response to the video I posted: I would have to agree with the cops since, although it may not have been a violent protest, it was certainly illegal. Especially if the street was open for traffic.
