Another post on hardware that works with Ubuntu. Such posts are always welcome. Thank you, Steve, and best of luck to your Sox in the playoffs.
-
Ubuntu is fast enough for me, though speed freaks may find some useful tips in this post
-
Mark the seconds as Ubuntu gets better and better every day.
-
Ho hum. I used to run SUSE but only run Ubuntu these days.
-
Time to start paying the piper, who will get every last penny remaining in this doomed company’s treasury.
-
I’m a big fan of Rob. Read — and view — my post, “Me Tube.”
-
Good news. At first I feared “Bungle” was departing Microsoft, but of course Ballmer wouldn’t fire himself.
-
Good move by IBM. See Bob Sutor’s blog for more on this
-
On a hole 3.5 miles deep. Amazing, but not as deep as the one SCO has dug itself into.
-
What a business mode — sue the mothers of your future customers. Dumb, dumber, and dumbest all rolled into one. A true record from the record industry
-
SONY joins the RIAA in the dumb-dumber-dumbest death march.
-
New effort by MS in their war against open-source, which they have deemed a cancer.
-
Now I can learn how to interface with Bill Gates, Slashdot’s resident borg.
-
Ubuntu is a warm and friendly animal. No wonder it’s growing so fast.
-
Its only a matter of time, I hope, until someone names an asteroid after a dog and brother-in-law with the same name. That woud be Asteroid Walter. Woof, woof.
-
Though I went to college in Los Angeles I much prefer New York. It’s good to see that the folks in Washington feel the same way.
-
Ho hum. MS doesn’t get open-source, not then, not now, probably not ever
-
Yeah! A companion to the Jikes Archive. Those were the days, when Slashdot was THE place to be for open-source folks.
-
The folks in Redmond seem to have read my post on Linus Torvalds, “The Pirate of The Caribbean.” TWWP’s audience grows daily
-
Another day, another misstep, in Sony’s ongoing death march.
-
Too bad Jonathan didn’t major in Computer Science and so learn about the Dining Philosophers. He can catch up by reading my series, “Yogi Yarns” on forking, named in honor or my favorite contemporary philosopher
-
MS finally gets some revenge for Finland’s having produced Linus Torvalds. Its too late though. The Penguin is out of the bag, living on a diet of open-source.
-
Need to dig into this.
-
Bit early for this post. We’re not even up to Halloween yet, and this is meant for April Fool’s day, I think
-
Or would that be mine-field? Music to my ears, though, a veritable Symphony.
-
Don’t worry. Just a scary word in a headline to attract readers. I got fooled, so don’ t bother. The kernel folks sort these things out, taking as much time as is needed to do so.
-
Of course MS doesn’t want anyone to touch their code. It’s so brittle just a whiff of openness would break it.
-
lightweight article, but always good to see business folks poking at Linux.
-
Send this pencil-pusher off to mark up the OOXML spec. That should keep him busy for the rest of his life.
-
The search is over — ODF is the answer.
-
Opening up the process would I am sure lessen the number of flaws, but I’m not holding my breath waiting for that to happen
