    Where does Fedora, the source of systemd, get most of its revenue? U.S. Government agencies referred to by their 3 letter acronyms...

    Just asked on IRC for info only available on a Flash website (that I don't even need) so I can point out I don't have the plugin installed.

    Just ranted to my cornered and clearly uninterested colleagues about the oxymoronic "Graphical expert install" in the Debian installer.

    AFAICT dbus is just a replacement for a directory tree with unix sockets under /tmp. Either is equally functional.

    I hate new top-level directories. We are stomping on decades of Unix convention.

    Just tried GNOME 3 for 30 seconds. Prefer the old version. Will say bad things about GNOME 3 whenever it is mentioned for the next 5 years.
