    Account removal

    I no longer wish to be a member of this website. I will not state my reasons why, as I'd rather avoid drama. Let's finish this relationship peacefully, UbuntuForums. Please remove my account. Thank...

    Re: Why do all Gnome 3/shell distros look the same?

    Poll: Re: How do you shut your PC down?

    I shut down my PC the old fashion way, by choosing pressing the Shut Down button on the screen.

    I'm very environmentally conscious so I try not to leave my computer on when I'm not using it.

    +1 to all who said Zelda. :) OoT's is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time. I still listen to it at least once a week.

    I used to use RSS big time back in the day. No longer. I think newer technologies have slowly made it irrelevant. Just as most people now use Facebook more than email, it seems people now use Twitter...

    Is this a sign of things to come?

    Maybe we will be seeing a fully-functional browser-based Ubuntu.
