Ya well most tech savvy people already know this, after all it’s common knowledge. But it’s nice to see the difference visually, and would probably explain the difference to the less technically endowed amongst us, in more ways than one!

In a recent very popular blog post of mine, Etymology of A Distro, I mentioned that I convinced a friend to name her cat “Gentoo”. And since we all know that the Internet is basically made out of tubes and cat pictures, I decided to treat it as a dump truck and load all the Gentoo The Cat pictures! Watch out, your “internets” will get delayed by a few more seconds.

While surfing the tubes, I stumbled onto this picture. Apparently some dude tried to scan his Ubuntu using the xponlinescanner utility. Lo and behold, some 3 XP viruses pwned his Ubuntu (what a shame). He better watch out and resolve the Spyware.IEMonstor.b virus, it’s critical! Ya right, LOLZ!

During my interview with LinEx developer Daniel Campos, Daniel shared with me this picture. I found it hillarious, and decided to give it a post on it’s own. It’s basically a picture of two Windows Live chicks losing their virginity at a Linux conference held Spain . A captioning contest for this would totally […]

1-Because it comes “free” with your laptop and you might as well use it. Just like that Britney Spears single that was bundled with your CD player.
2-Money is no object to you. No problem just fork out $500, for 10% of the features you actually need. After all you can’t put a label on “quality”
3-Installing […]
