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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

Whiz bang gadgets and myself are usually not uttered in the same sentence. I’m pretty basic. I like simple desktops like XFCE and Openbox…I like plain things. Give me bread, cheese and water and I’m a happy man. Give me wine and I’m your friend for life : I’ve tried to simplify in the past [...]
I’ve been distro shopping lately. I had become complacent while working with PCLinuxOS because everything just works when using it. With nothing broken, I had nothing to fix This is a good thing, unless you want things to break every once in a while so you can learn to fix them. I know, [...]
I’m not a hater of Ubuntu by any means. I think it’s done a ton of good for Linux. It’s opened many doors and perceptions of users everywhere. It’s available to more people than any other distribution in history. However, I do have a problem with some of rather “excitable” users in the Ubuntu community.
Let’s [...]
I used to be hardcore…
I ran Slackware when it was on 400 floppies. I ran the 1.x kernel. I hacked channels on efnet in IRC for bragging rights. I waited all day long for wavs to download from a BBS. My game of choice used to be a MUD.
We grow up, we move on, and [...]
