I ran across the flash video above (note: I’m not taking content and embedding it here…you’ll need to click on the image to be taken to the author’s site) a while back and have never posted a link to it. It’s pretty funny and if you look around on ubergeek’s site, you’ll find a couple [...]

This post was originally published on 13 July, 2006. I’ve updated the original post which can be found here with current and extra information.
I have a problem with facebook, myspace, and other social networking websites out there. The problem is when I upload my data to their webservers….I don’t own it anymore. They do. And [...]

As noted previously, I’ve been pretty hard pressed lately in my secular job due to migrations and other fun activities happening throughout the past few months. I did however, get the chance to download Unity 2010 Beta 2 and give it a go. I had some problems when booting because I was brought to a [...]

For those of you who follow me here at Yet Another Linux Blog you might be wondering where I went the last month. I assure you I’m still here and I still use Linux every single day. I’m currently running both Arch Linux (32bit) and Unity Linux (64bit) on my main computer.
I’ve been working pretty [...]

Many times in my journeys of distribution hopping, I’ve run across rabid fans and communities [1]
I’ve written a guide for new users on how to understand the vitrol that rabid zealots spew in Linux communities [2]
Those problems are all very easy to see…but these articles deal with only the tangible problems in these areas. What [...]

I’ve been pretty busy lately with theme design for the Unity Linux project. The following pages were updated:
Unity-Linux.org
Planet.Unity-Linux.org
A new forum theme called SMFPress @ forum.unity-linux.org
Uniformity was the key ingredient to the stylings. I’m trying to match everything to the front page theme at the main site page. Using the color pallete from that site, I [...]

I installed a bare bones Arch Linux system today and took a screenshot. With no graphics utilities installed, I needed a way to convert a PNG to a GIF for a Simple Machines forum template thumbnail. I figured I’d use a command line utility to help me and ImageMagick is installed by default on most [...]

Most, if not all, top distributions of Linux ship a live CD that allows an end user to preview the operating system without installing it.
Foresight Linux is the exception.
Now, this isn’t because they don’t WANT to have a Live CD…they do. The problem is that rPath, the creators of rBuilder Online, have discontinued the Live CD [...]

In honor of today, which is International Talk like a Pirate Day, my blog now comes in pirate flavor thanks to a very interesting plugin.
So have a look around! Some posts are pretty silly sounding and others are downright hilarious. And have a great day or you’ll probably have to walk the plank somewhere [...]

I previously wrote about a possible “rebasing” of Foresight Linux on the Fedora platform. This conjecture was a bit premature it seems as I am completely wrong on this being a possibility The best part about me being absolutely wrong on this is that there is still going to be benefits [...]
