It is the intention of this entry to try and ascertain what the correct definition of FUD is. It is evident that this term is thrown around much as of late and is a ‘catch all’ for many to group people that they do not want to deal with. So, let’s start by getting the [...]

Ubuntu is the only Linux distro I know of that has its alpha
releases slashdotted and dugg…which is a real shame; I think there

Different Linux distros and desktop camps should recognize their differences as providing choice instead of being something that makes them different.
They all have the [...]

I’ve been drastically neglecting a few areas of my blog. The main one is plugging it into social networks. I’ve been using things like twitter, pownce, and stumbleupon…but I haven’t truly plugged my blog into these services.
Now there are so many…I don’t even know how to plug them all in

In February, I asked for submissions for you favorite linux websites and offered up a link from Yet Another Linux Blog as incentive for those submissions. I’ve selected a few blogs to include not only as a link here, but also as a feature Linux site for inclusion in the Linux Expert Guide at [...]

This ‘featured’ list is a default list for the “Linux” feed that [...]

Looks like the BBC buckled under backlash from bloggers (say that 20 times fast). They’ll be offering their iPlayer in Mac and Linux flavors
I talked about what a crock they had begun to simmer with a Windows only version a few weeks ago. Glad to see that they have understood that [...]

If your Windows based computer is running slow, having random popups, and doing all sorts of weird things…chances are you’re a member of a botnet. Hackers are using your computer to email, spam, and infect other computers and users around the globe. You’re being used by these people to make money on the [...]

During distro comparisons, many call a lack of release cycle for PCLinuxOS one of its negative aspects. In my opinion, this is the most attractive and positive aspects of the small distribution.

By now, I feel pretty punch drunk. My Dell E521 has been kicking my beehind for quite a few days as I’ve tried to install PCLinuxOS 2007 Final.
