Hey, when you see a guy named James Kirk is the captain, would you even CONSIDER attempting to hack into it?

When I do use a DE, it's Xfce. I discovered it a few years ago, and have stuck with it, mainly because it's a lot lighter then the other big DEs. 90% of the time now, though, I use a tiling WM called Xmonad. It's something like 6 times lighter on resources then even Xfce is, and gives me the...

When the USS Zumwalt (DDG 1000) puts to sea later this year, it will be different from any other ship in the Navy's fleet in many ways. The $3.5 billon ship is designed for stealth, survivability, and firepower, and it's packed with advanced technology. And at the heart of its operations is a...

Some responses from Linus, and Greg Kroah-Hartman here: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/09/nvidia-seeks-peace-with-linux-pledges-help-on-open-source-driver/

@Gizmo: It reminds me vaguely of what happened some time ago with Nvidia's network drivers. Nvidia's guys wrote proprietary network drivers for their own network chipset, and shipped them. Quickly it became clear that the drivers sucked, and somebody in the open source arena wrote...

Big, *big* news here, people...this could be a big step in the right direction to get Nouveau on track, and getting a *proper* open-source driver written for Nvidia GPUs. Nouveau shows promise, but for 3D, it simply isn't viable. Yet. From Phoronix...

Haven't had time to check it out yet. Don't have any aspirations to use google+ or any other social network, but I will attempt to find a solution when time allows. I assume that y'all have confirmed what Chris has said? You can see it if you're logged in to gmail?

Shows up on my machine, no problem. I'll have to look at it later, no time right now.

This is why I still love the newspaper.

How nostalgic. :) Check out Mr. Ballmer at the beginning. He was always too over-the-top for me. lolz

I've just gotten the brand new incarnation of SimCity. I'm too busy right now to get on it, but later in the month I intend to try it out and see if I can get it to run.

Classic.

The National Security Agency (NSA) is the font of information security wisdom for the US defense and intelligence communities. But apparently, the NSA's own network security is so weak that a single administrator was able to hijack the credentials of a number of NSA employees with high-level...

Far more important than *random nonsense*, this is an essay by Ferdinand Thommes, known on the Internet as 'devil', the lead visionary for Siduction Linux. Things are not going to get any better any time soon. I call it the 'taming of cyberspace', and I hope it never comes to be. This hits...
