Last year, I ordered a starling and it worked just fine. It worked so well, that I'm still using it now and I even recommended that my father obtain a starling. so this year we got him a starling,...

Could my username be changed to "wenren"? Alternatively, could this account be disabled?

This really depends on what you are looking for in a server. However, if you don't have many configuration preferences, don't want to build from source, and only need mysql and php, I find that the...

What you might ask instead is "Is it possible to get tiling capabilities in metacity or compiz?"

I found out that the style is stored in kdeglobals. I was able to return to oxygen, so kde works again. Although, it would still be nice if I could get QtCurve to work...

So, I have a standard Ubuntu desktop. I installed, with tasksel, kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop. xfce works just as well as gnome. However, kde has some difficulties when I try to initiate some...

You know what a great way to pass the time is? Reread the entire archive of xkcd!

Last time, I was able to time it perfectly. I stayed up until 2:00 A.M, I fell asleep, and woke up an hour or two later to find that Ubuntu had been released only a few minutes earlier.

Denver, as the other guy mentioned a few posts ago.



I was surprised by how many people were still leeching some of the old Jaunty and Beta releases.



The problem is that JeffCo only...

Just as a reminder to everyone sitting down repeatedly hitting the "refresh" button as they wait for an announcement of the release, it is much more efficient (for users of firefox) to activate the...

If I remember correctly, 9.04 was released at about 3:00 or 4:00 (right now it is 1:00 where I am), so it will probably be at least two more hours, but more than likely it will be more. Therefore,...

AFAIK, Microsoft's license requires that you have Windows Pre-installed. However, when I tried the student upgrade option from 32-bit XP to 64-bit 7, at one point I accidentally overwrote my XP...

Yes, I just noticed that with UPS Tracking after I got the "shipping" email. And I also noticed that they don't list the Starling on their shipping chart: (Although, it seems a bit outdated, given it...

I recently ordered a Starling Netbook (September 21). I received an email telling me that the expected shipping time was 7 to 9 business days. So, It should hopefully ship by either this Friday or...

I'm learning C++ right now, and I'm reading a large textbook-like book about it. So far, I've learned everything up to classes; all that is left are 4 chapters on the STL, additional input/output...

I don't think there will ever be a "full blown python os." The problem here is that, as the PyCorn site admits, it is an "interpreted" operating system. To have a full Python OS, you would...

I want Haskell to grow, but I doubt that's likely. So long as something along the lines of C++ or D exists, I'll be happy.

I am now seeding both Kubuntu and Ubuntu desktop x86 isos. There are now so many seeders, that it seems as if I am being kept out of the uploading!:)

Anyways, I'm also downloading/seeding the...

Hehehe...I plan to use the school's great internet connection to speed up my download/seeding of Ubuntu, as it is faster than my own connection.

Now I will at last download in peace... and get only 1.5 hours of sleep before school today. Good night.

Yeah! Downloading Ubuntu 9.04 and Kubuntu 9.04 through torrent now... I plan to keep seeding for long after!
:P

Alright, I'm back from my nap.:)

I'm confused. I've found some servers still with only the release candidate.

But in places like here, the release is full. Where do I find the torrents?

For the sake of school, I think I'll only be able to last until 3:00 A.M. (GMT-7) at max before I decide to wait and sleep.

NO!!!! I was re-routed to the Umeå site again! I don't care about the Swedish conspiracy!

I also have an extra 1TB external hard drive, but it is, oddly enough, limited to only 4 primary partitions.

I've tried both GNOME and KDE; on my Fedora partition I have dual-installed both, and I...
