About the Linux operating system.

Debian Installed!

I've managed to get Linux installed on my system again! This time, instead of Gentoo, I'm using Debian Linux. This means that the system was up and running in about 15 minutes instead of a day.

Plus I can make fun of Gentoo users now.

Now all I need to do is figure out why my sound isn't working...

Edit: (after applying bandages to bleeding ears) Now I just need to figure out why sound is only work in the Totem media player. Never turn up the volume when trying to figure out why the sound isn't working...

Get the Facts

This is actually a really old post that never made it to my webpage, but I'm going to post it now.

Well, as some people know, Microsoft has released a Get the Facts on Windows and Linux advertising campaign explaining why Microsoft Windows is better than Linux in the server arena.

(Please note that said servers - a lot of people have managed to misunderstand that and keep on bringing Internet Explorer into the conversation, which as absolutely nothing to do with Microsoft Windows as a server platform. From now on, whenever anyone talks about Internet Explorer security holes when talking about Linux vs. Windows as a server platform, I'm going to bring up spatial Nautilus and explain how that proves that Apache sucks.)
