Will Linux ever take off with the mainstream?



Linux is an open source operating system - members of the community distribution can contribute and make changes or add shit they think should be changed. This is very difficult for Linux to be marketed. It's taken the whole Linux community YEARS to get their act together to come up with something that is user-friendly. Ubuntu has been very successful with bringing the power of Linux to the masses, and perhaps has a chance of taking off. The community has to conform together and stop having disagreements with the Ubuntu distribution and standardize it!! I don't see this happening. Think of the average user...very familiar with Windows/OSX and then you throw a completely different environment at them...it's not going to work since the majority of people do not like to what they use everyday in a drastic manner.



I believe the best way for people to jump into the world of Linux without having to touch their hard drive would be to boot up a live cd of the Ubuntu distribution. All you have to do is put it in your CD drive, reboot, Linux will load up into memory and BAM! live client of Linux; and of course reboot, take out the cd and nothing was changed. Another way to go at this would be to create a virtual machine (more for advanced users) and boot your Linux distribution from there. I have done this and had much success with VMWARE Workstation, but I used it to boot the BackTrack distribution that's full of network utilities.



Here are some tips that can help you decide if Linux is right for you:

1. Make sure you can live in a non-windows world. The easiest way to see if you can is like I said before: download a distribution of linux (ubuntu) and burn it to a cd and boot up a live client of it.

2. Limited Commercial Support - learn to love your neighbors. Even though the Ubuntu community is very large and helpful, the type of response is very wide and inconsistent based on the problems you might have if any at all. FORUMS

3. Find the right distribution for you. Most like UBUNTU - compiz fancy 3D effects and very user-friendly.

4. Do your Homework - make sure all your hardware is supported by the distribution. Personally I haven't had any issues with Linux supporting my hardware, Ubuntu does everything automatically and don't have to worry about your drivers, especially with the latest version of (10.04).

5. JUMP IN - the biggest thing that impedes anyone's ability to try new things is that they don't try; just try it! - you like it, then you like it - if you don't, then you don't - try something else and move on. Just don't stick with one operating system the rest of your live completely obvious to what else is out there.

Possibilities are endless with Linux:



I think Linux's Ubuntu distribution has a chance at hitting mainstream, but they still have a long way to go.

MACFAGS

No offense at all to MAC-users, they are very well built and durable but wayyy over priced in my opinion, but if you have the money to drop on a MAC there is nothing wrong with that.

At my university there is a huge population of MACFAGS. Not just mac users but full-on MACFAGS! Let me define a "MACFAG"...
A MACFAG is someone who purchases an apple laptop for the sole purpose of showing it off in coffee shops and in their classes, because it's sleek/shiny and the fact that it costs $2000 if not $3000. Another attribute that defines a MACFAG is the fact that they want to be different and scoff at the idea of compatible software.

This is just completely silly to me to spend so much money on this "look". I can get a much faster and stronger PC Laptop for half the price of a MACBOOK. It's rediculous, Steve jobs is a fucking GENIOUS!!! People take note of what the fuck he does because it's obviously working LOL

So in my daily schedule...I go to my local coffee shop that is full of macfags, the smell of macfagness reaches all the way fucking down the street. I get a coffee and sit down in the middle of the macfagness and whip out my Sony Vaio, boot up Linux and start working on my projects in JAVA. FEELS GOOD MANG

Here's to sum it up:

Elevator 101

Alright bros,
Don't you get really pissed off when a perfectly able-body person uses the elevator to go up/down one floor? Especially when stair access is within 10 feet away?

This happens to me on a daily basis at my university. I take the elevator because I have six floors to travel and there is always these lazy ass, inconsiderate people who use the elevator to go up one floor and it makes taking the elevator miserable for people who actually need to use it.

Not only does it make it miserable for people traveling 2+ floors, but for handicapped people who need extra space, are crowded with these self-absorbed children think they need to ride the elevator for one floor.

So fuck this shit, I can't stop them really from taking the elevator so how bout I try a little elevator "hacking" and make the elevator go directly to the top floor while ignoring everyone else's requests to the 2nd floor LOL.



Fuck that shit I'm doing it.

Happy 12th Birthday BackRub!



I'm sure you all have seen the birthday cake that is displayed on the Google search engine. It turns out 12 years ago, Page and Brin first started their journey on creating a search engine. First it was called BackRub that is Gay as fuck who would even search shit with that. I have been using Google ever since 1999 and loved it ever since and would never fall over to anything else.

The following is a little time line done by the telegraph.co.ck of Google's shit:

January 1996 Page and Brin, now both computer science graduate students, begin collaborating on a search engine called BackRub which operates on Stanford servers for more than a year, eventually taking up too much bandwidth.



September 1997 Google.com is registered as a domain after the pair decide BackRub needs to be rebranded. The new name is a play on the word “googol,” a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros. It is an early hint at their mission to organise a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.

November 1997 The pair publish an early academic paper setting out Google's aims and specifications. It is called The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine.

August 1998 Andy Bechtolsheim, co-founder of the erstwhile computer firm Sun Microsystems, becomes the first investor in Google when he writes a cheque for $100,000 to an entity that does not ye exist - a company called Google Inc.

September 1998 Google sets up its first office in the garage of Susan Wojcicki, now the company’s vice president of product management, at 232 Santa Margarita, Menlo Park in Silicon Valley.

Google files for incorporation in California. Shortly afterwards, Brin and Page open a bank account in the newly established company’s name and deposit Bechtolsheim’s cheque.

Craig Silverstein, a fellow computer science graduate student at Stanford, is hired as Google's first employee.

December 1998 PC Magazine reports that Google “has an uncanny knack for returning extremely relevant results” and recognises it as the search engine of choice in the Top 100 Web Sites for 1998.



February 1999 Google finally outgrows its garage office and moves to a new headquarters at 165 University Avenue in Palo Alto. By now, the company has eight employees. The first snack to be offered in Google's offices - which become famous for their lavish cuisine - is Swedish Fish.

March 1999 The first-ever company ski trip takes place when staff pile into a van and head for Tahoe, California. The “winter trip” has since become an annual tradition.

May 1999 Omid Kordestani becomes the first non-engineering employee when joins as employee number 11 to run the company's sales division. In 2010, he remains a senior advisor to the CEO and founders.

June 1999 John Doerr and Michael Moritz join the board. The company secures its first major investment from venture capital firms when it receives $25 million from Sequoia Capital and Kleiner Perkins.

The funding is announced in the company's first press release, which quotes Moritz describing “Googlers” as “people who use Google” - the first hint that "to google" will pass into the lexicon as a verb.

August 1999 Google moves yet again, this time into its first Mountain View offices. The building is a few miles south of Stanford University, and north of the older towns of Silicon Valley: Sunnyvale, Santa Clara and San Jose.

November 1999 Charlie Ayers joins as Google’s first chef - continuing the emerging tradition of fine dining at work. He wins the job in a cook-off judged by the company’s 40 employees. His previous claim to fame is catering for the band Grateful Dead.

Google adds the Uncle Sam function, which restricts a search to US government documents.

April 2000 Google's first April Fool's hoax comes with the announcement of MentalPlex - a function which reads your mind as you visualise the search results you want.

May 2000 The first 10 foreign language versions of Google are released in French, German, Italian, Swedish, Finnish, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Norwegian and Danish.

Google wins its first Webby Awards for Technical Achievement (voted by judges) and Peoples’ Voice (voted by users).

September 2000 The search engine is launched in Japanese and Korean as well as Chinese - beginning a fraught relationship between Google and China.

October 2000 Google AdWords launches with 350 customers. The programme allows companies to market their services by allowing them to buy the most popular and relevant search terms.

December 2000 Google Toolbar is released - a browser plug-in that allows users to search without visiting the Google homepage.

FUCKING GOOGLE IS OUR SKYNET GONNA FUCKING TAKE OVER THE WORLD HOLY FUCK.

Crackhead


So I want to tell you guys a little story I came across:


Yes, you. You sick fucker. On Wednesday morning I emerged from my girlfriend's building by U.N. Plaza to find that you had sawed the tops off both the sparkplugs on my motorcycle. At the time, I had no idea why anyone would do that. Other than the sparkplugs, the bike was untouched. Some kind of bizarre vandalism? A fraternity prank gone awry? I had no idea. All I knew is that I looked like a huge douchebag riding the Muni to work in a padded motorcycle jacket and helmet.

Because the bike was immobilized I got a $35 street sweeping ticket that night. Thursday I had it towed to the shop ($45) where they replaced the sparkplugs and the boots ($50 including labor). They explained to me that "people" - I use the term loosely here - like you break off the tops of spark plugs and use the porcelain tubes to smoke crack. As an engineer and former MacGyver fan, in a way I think this is kind of cool. But then I remember that I just paid $100 for YOUR crackpipes, and I get angry again.

Crackhead, it was really good to have my bike back though. I rode home from the shop with a couple of spare sparkplugs and a smile on my face. I figured the next time I parked at my girlfriend's place overnight I would have to buy some crackpipes and tape them to my bike as a peace offering. Overall, I wasn't that upset. Despite having to ride the bus for three days and dropping a hundred bones at the shop, I had gained some fascinating knowledge, a new set of sparkplugs, and a pretty funny anecdote about how fucked up you are, and how our paths once crossed briefly in the night.

But you couldn't just let sleeping dogs lie, could you Crackhead. You couldn't just stay in on Friday, watch Letterman through the window of a home electronics store and then call it a night. You couldn't rest on your laurels. Two porcelain sparkplug crackpipes just wasn't enough for you, was it Crackhead? You just had to come back for more.

This morning, a scant fifteen hours after I rode it out of the shop, I found my motorcycle violated once again. This time you only took the right one - maybe you were having an off night. At least this time I had a spare sparkplug and the tools to fix it - or so I thought - having ordered a 73-piece toolset from SEARS.com last week. But no, the sparkplug socket in my new toolset was for American sparkplugs. So I had to go down to the neighborhood Ace hardware. They had an 18mm socket that would fit over my sparkplug, but it was for a 1/2" drive ratchet. My toolkit only has 1/4" and 3/8" ratchets. So I had to buy a 1/2" ratchet along with the socket. Even though the clerk took pity on me and gave me the senior citizen discount (I'm 25) it still cost me $22 all told. Now, you might say that I should have just gotten a 3/8"-to-1/2" drive adaptor instead of springing for the whole ratchet. And to that I say "Shut the hell up, Crackhead, I'm not finished. And besides, I was eventually going to buy a 1/2" ratchet anyway so it's probably not worth it to take it back now."

OK, now I'm rambling. But the point is, Crackhead, that you have done me wrong. Now, I get that you love crack. That is totally understandable. I've heard it is really fun, at first, and quite addictive. What I don't understand is,

YOU ARE A CRACKHEAD. WHY DON'T YOU OWN A CRACKPIPE?

I am an engineer. Do you ever see me shaking down bums in the Loin for a calculator and sliderule? No, you don't. Because engineering is the main thing I do, I went and bought myself a calculator. The main thing you do is crack. How do you get by without a crackpipe? The other crackheads must clown on you non-stop. I mean, the fucking saw you used to saw off my sparkplugs is probably worth five or ten bucks. Why not sell or trade it for a crackpipe? You really haven't put much thought into this, have you?

Please, Crackhead, please don't tell me you sold your crackpipe to buy crack. Even a stupid crackhead such as yourself couldn't possibly be that stupid.

I've decided that taping crackpipes to my motorcycle would be tantamount to appeasement. You have crossed a line, Crackhead - specifically California Street. You have come onto my own street and you have desecrated that which I hold dear. You have stolen from me, and you have caused me to spend the last half hour writing this post instead of engineering shit, and it is concievable, if not likely, that my boss could find out about this and fire me. I am hella pissed at you dude.

Here are my options as I see them:

1. Write a note saying that I have coated both of my sparkplugs in rat poison and tape it to my bike at night. You can thank Tim for that one, it was his idea.

2. Don't write a note, but just coat both sparkplugs in rat poison. This is probably closer to a punishment that would fit your despicable crime. I'm sure this is super illegal and shit, but it's not like anyone is going to miss you, Crackhead. Don't fool yourself.

3. Wait in an alley near my bike armed with my new stainless steel mirror-finish Ace Professional brand 1/2" drive socket wrench, my 18mm sparkplug socket, and my searing rage. It's pretty heavy and well balanced. I am not a large man, but I am angry.

In conclusion, Crackhead, why don't you just do both of us a favor and buy yourself a crackpipe? It will both enhance your crack smoking experience and save me a lot of time and felony assault charges. Think about it.

Sincerely,
Matt

That one girl we all fall for.



I think we all know what it means when I say that I'm really in awe with this girl that I talked to briefly in my university's library. It was a relatively short conversation, but within that short period of time I was able to determine if I'm really interested in this person. It turns out she's my dream girl, the way she talks, responds, asks questions and appears to be quick-witted makes me oblivious of my surroundings and all my focus is on her. I kept thinking to myself, she's the most amazing girl I have ever met. She isn't fake and she isn't that typical girl you see everyday. She's very down to Earth and outgoing, I would love to catch another conversation with her, but who knows when that will be.
