The Interesting Web
If you’re tired of seeing the GNOME vs. KDE wars, you haven’t seen this yet! It’s actually downright funny, and a certain portion of it is pretty ironic. Get serious with an interview with Robert Love, which I might add, explains what Project Utopia is meant to do, in layman’s terms.
WordPress is being painful again – this time it has to do with timezones. I have since disabled the timezone feature, and let’s hope that Fedora People is happy again. The one click backup option is pretty cool as it dumps the entire MySQL db to a text file (which I can rsync and implement on machines at home).
Well, I’m off for a Chinese New Year dinner thing. Oh, I need to get a new desktop, so if someone has interesting affordable specs, comment?
If you’re thinking of building one, (which I would – how often do you actually *use* vendor support for your PC??), I’d look at something like this for starters: the Biostar IDEQ 200V. It’s a “small form-factor”, but I have found that most people never use anything beyond their AGP slot and *maybe* one PCI (which this has), so it’s worth the trade off in PCI slots for most people in order to get the quiet, space-saving design.
Otherwise, email me – jensknutson (AT) yahoo (DAWT) com and I can help you – I’ve been building PCs for longer than I care to admit, and have a good handle on linux hardware compatibility. :-)
