    Fedora 15 & GNOME 3.0 First Impressions

    I tried Gnome 3 a couple nights ago, and again last night. I think I was beginning to see it in a slightly more positive light, but then I went to open an app and gnome-shell crashed entirely. I couldn't switch to a TTY or restart the environment. I had to use the power button. Now it's stuck in...

    Fedora 15 & GNOME 3.0 First Impressions

    I tried Gnome3 on my Archlinux install, but wasn't very impressed, to be honest. The whole redesign seems unnecessary and amateurish. Too much is missing. It reminds me of the KDE 4 fiasco that happened a few years ago. It almost makes me want to just stick to the command-line when it comes to...

    Haha! Seriously, though, when will people stop with these apocalypse predictions? The next "apocalypse' is scheduled for Dec 21, 2012. ** facepalm ** I know people have always done this, but hasn't it got worse lately?

    Duke Nukem Forever Demo Release June 3rd

    It's a hobby shop on the west side. They've got video games, card games like magic the gathering and D&D, comics. It's sort of like that comic book shop on the Simpsons, minus the obnoxious storekeeper. No, I haven't seen that one ... yet. That's awesome!

    YouTube Introduces 'Top 100' Music Videos Feature

    I should've said Top 5, since that's the only part I've seen so far.

    Intel's Smart Response; SSD Caching Tested

    I so want an SSD. I'm planning on getting one when I finally build that gaming PC of mine. High-capacity SSD, ATI multi-display (at least 1 x 3 config, maybe something more if I have the money/room for it haha!), infinite speed quantum CPU! Ok, maybe not the last one.

    An In-Depth Look at Ubuntu 11.04

    I bought a new router (Linksys E3000) and installed Tomato-USB Ext on it. After enabling SSH, I remembered another thing Windows lacks: an SSH client! Then I proceeded to install PuTTy.

    2011 Canadian Federal Election Results

    Yeah, the NDP did very well in Quebec. I don't really know what's best for this country, or if who gets in makes that big of a difference. Anyway, I think Harper has done a few good things. I have read that Canada is now a military power, whereas we were not prior to harper. Some people may not...

    Microsoft Purchases Skype for $8.5 Billion

    Interesting. Why do they have this rule? Patriot act or is it older than that? For alternatives, there's Empathy, Ekiga and others http://alternativeto.net/software/skype/?platform=linux. Apparently Google has google voice and video chat. Not sure how good any of them are, as I've never tried them.
