Awesome Yaro

So a bunch of really irritating morons way back when tried to suggest that Windows 7 was supposed to "blow Linux out of the water." I was skeptical. I had no reason to believe Windows 7 was going to have any real feature that was actually going to actually make it loads better than Linux, especially since most bloggers have immediately noted how *little* Microsoft actually added to Windows 7.

Okay. So I've been using KDE 4 for about a week, and I've already got a big lit of problems I have with it, and KDE4 operates basically like it was rushed out.

My list of grievances:

I know I'm being petty. I know this would probably piss off anyone who actually cared about this MUCK. But I'm sorry. I have to laugh and shriek:

I TOLD YOU SO!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

I'm so very happy. They should have listened to me. It would have saved the whole game from an untimely demise.

Here, my friends, is armament against the idiots who actually think RMS is right about Linux being GNU:

"Linux needs GNU to become a complete operating system."

This one actually has two major flaws to it.

Microsoft has Novell right where it wants it. I thought about it and it became clear. It's all about Linux. So here's a quick summary and a brief blog:

Embrace - Troll about patent violations and scare companies into signing some partnerships with Microsoft, then arbitarily start acting friendly and "cooperative" with open source and Linux upon hooking some Linux distributions. (As far as I know, they got three: SuSE, Linspire, and Xandros.)

Sun's Niagara systems get Linux

In Linux news today, Sun has announced that they have a new partner for their Niagara processors, and this partner is apparently very Linux-tastic.

The new partner is none other than Wind River Systems of telecommunications fame.

Crapple unit sales drop drop drop!

February sales reports coming from Crapple have dropped under 17% last February.

According to NPD analyst Steven Baker: "They had a pretty crummy month. Some have noted that they had some tough year-to-year comparisons, but this is a little more concerning than just comparisons."

So, yet again I played all the HL2 games over the course of time, and once again, I found myself longing for Episode Three to roll out or for some hints about Episode three.

Of course, there's a couple things I would take as a given about it.

Arch Linux has four active repositories and one passive repository. By active, I mean by default you can access tehm without pointing a damn web browser to them, whereas a passive repository is basically where you have to grab Firefox or Opera or your web browser of choice and MANUALLY download packages.

The Linux Kernel is an advanced kernel. But it did not get there overnight. As of this writing, the kernel has had going on 18 years of development, which started in 1991. Like any other software, the kernel has four version numbers.

As of the writing of this blog, the most current kernel is 2.6.28.7.

So what are these numbers?
