A Review of Knoppix (Jan 12 2004 05:26 GMT) - 12 Jan 2004: 'My overall impression of this version of Knoppix is like that of any other Linux user probably. The fact that they have managed to cram so much on to a single CD is quite simply beyond fathom.

Bush In 30 Seconds (Jan 12 2004 05:25 GMT) - Wow, this demonstrates the power of the people's media. Say what you will about the negativity of these ads, I think the idea of hosting a web-based contest to come up with great political ads is a perfect use of the interactivity and two-way nature of the Internet. These ads were written and filmed by citizens like you and me who are expressing their feelings about our political leadership. This is democracy in the age of digital video and the Internet. And I love it. |

It's too hard! (Jan 12 2004 05:19 GMT) - Joel thinks Debian is too hard, in fact, he thinks installing it is "very close to impossible". Strangely, despite this near-impossiblity, thousands of people manage to do it. I'll be the first to admit that the installation isn't as pretty or as easy as that provided by other distributions. There are a number of reasons for that, but I'm not going to go into those. The reality is that if you're installing a server OS, you should be assumed to know a certain amount about the OS you're installing. |

There has been a lot of discussion regarding the smoking ban in Ireland, and its affect on the tourism industry. (Jan 12 2004 05:19 GMT) - My wife and I did not have a single drink in any pub in Dublin's famed Temple Bar district, simply because we could not find one that had breathable air. We didn't fare much better in Glenn Colm Cille, though we lasted about a half a few nights at Biddy's (pic at right). Unfortunately the stench of cigarette smoke on our clothes lingered for the walk back the our rooms. As enjoyable as our trip was, it would have been infinitely more enjoyable had we been able to find a smoke-free pub. |
