“T’is to know how young love has died,

To know someone alone has cried

But memories are ours to keep

To live them again in our every single dream.”

Because there are fewer and fewer of us, I must help keep our lineage alive. I am looking for someone to help me do this. I need a woman (obviously) who is willing to raise a child with me in the method of Unix. Our child will be introduced to computers at a young age, and will be setting emacs mode before any other child can even read. I earn a sufficient income to support a family in modest comfort. Other than the fact our child will be bright, text-based and sarcastic, we will otherwise be a normal family. We will even go to Disney World and see Mickey Mouse.

So, if you are a woman between the ages of 23 and 43 who is ready to raise a child in the way of the shell, let me know so we can begin the process. (If you are ready to raise more than one child, even better.)

PS - yes, this is for real. Given the right person, I would obviously propose before we … call fork().
PPS - I only set emacs mode for my ksh session. I only edit files using vi. Just wanted to clear that up. And I’m looking to raise the child(ren) as a dedicated couple, so if you aren’t interested in being married, you may wish to select() a different posting.

N.B. - on the issue of relocation. I live in a place where my income/expense ratio is proper (i.e., greater than 2:1). I’m willing to live anywhere in the world where this remains true. I’ve been to much of the country as well as foreign nations. There are no limits to where I will live *so long as the job market for unix admins is robust enough to be sustainable.* And yes, I am interested in a strictly monogamous situation. I’ve been known to actually turn down offers of “two chicks at the same time.”

Him: “C’mon darlin’. You know you want it…”

Her: “No - really - I don’t.”

Him: “Go on - you’re up for it really - I can tell. You’re just lovin’ the chase… Cooor…”
Her: “No, no - really - I’m not.”

Him: “Go on - let me stick it in you. You’re gagging for it…”

Her: “No - really - I’m so not - and you’re a twat.”

Him: “Here ya go - hey up - in… it…”

Her: “Fuck off. It’s embarassing.”

Him: “You want it really. I know you do. You love the pigeon… ”

Fucking funny. He carried on for ages, chasing her around with her having none of it. Fair play. That kind of desperate sex chase never works. I should know! Poor dude ended up looking a right tit. Serves him right.

I don’t know who you are, or why you are reading this page. I only know that for the moment, you’re reading it, and that is good. I can assume that you are here because you are troubled and considering ending your life. If it were possible, I would prefer to be there with you at this moment, to sit with you and talk, face to face and heart to heart. But since that is not possible, we will have to make do with this.

I have known a lot of people who have wanted to kill themselves, so I have some small idea of what you might be feeling. I know that you might not be up to reading a long book, so I am going to keep this short. While we are together here for the next five minutes, I have five simple, practical things I would like to share with you. I won’t argue with you about whether you should kill yourself. But I assume that if you are thinking about it, you feel pretty bad.

Well, you’re still reading, and that’s very good. I’d like to ask you to stay with me for the rest of this page. I hope it means that you’re at least a tiny bit unsure, somewhere deep inside, about whether or not you really will end your life. Often people feel that, even in the deepest darkness of despair. Being unsure about dying is okay and normal. The fact that you are still alive at this minute means you are still a little bit unsure. It means that even while you want to die, at the same time some part of you still wants to live. So let’s hang on to that, and keep going for a few more minutes.

“Suicide is not chosen; it happens when pain exceeds resources for coping with pain.”

That’s all it’s about. You are not a bad person, or crazy, or weak, or flawed, because you feel suicidal. It doesn’t even mean that you really want to die - it only means that you have more pain than you can cope with right now. If I start piling weights on your shoulders, you will eventually collapse if I add enough weights… no matter how much you want to remain standing. Willpower has nothing to do with it. Of course you would cheer yourself up, if you could.

Don’t accept it if someone tells you, “that’s not enough to be suicidal about.” There are many kinds of pain that may lead to suicide. Whether or not the pain is bearable may differ from person to person. What might be bearable to someone else, may not be bearable to you. The point at which the pain becomes unbearable depends on what kinds of coping resources you have. Individuals vary greatly in their capacity to withstand pain.

When pain exceeds pain-coping resources, suicidal feelings are the result. Suicide is neither wrong nor right; it is not a defect of character; it is morally neutral. It is simply an imbalance of pain versus coping resources.

You can survive suicidal feelings if you do either of two things: (1) find a way to reduce your pain, or (2) find a way to increase your coping resources. Both are possible.

Now I want to tell you five things to think about.

Well, it’s been a few minutes and you’re still with me. I’m really glad.

Since you have made it this far, you deserve a reward. I think you should reward yourself by giving yourself a gift. The gift you will give yourself is a coping resource. Remember, back up near the top of the page, I said that the idea is to make sure you have more coping resources than you have pain. So let’s give you another coping resource, or two, or ten…! until they outnumber your sources of pain.

Now, while this page may have given you some small relief, the best coping resource we can give you is another human being to talk with. If you find someone who wants to listen, and tell them how you are feeling and how you got to this point, you will have increased your coping resources by one. Hopefully the first person you choose won’t be the last. There are a lot of people out there who really want to hear from you. It’s time to start looking around for one of them.

Now: I’d like you to call someone.

And while you’re at it, you can still stay with me for a bit. Check out these sources of online help.

Additional things to read at this site:

• How serious is our condition? ...“he only took 15 pills, he wasn’t really serious…” if others are making you feel like you’re just trying to get attention… read this.
• Why is it so hard for us to recover from being suicidal? …while most suicidal people recover and go on, others struggle with suicidal thoughts and feelings for months or even years. Suicide and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
• Recovery from grief and loss …has anyone significant in your life recently died? You would be in good company… many suicidal people have recently suffered a loss.
• The stigma of suicide that prevents suicidal people from recovering: we are not only fighting our own pain, but the pain that others inflict on us… and that we ourselves add to. Stigma is a huge complicating factor in suicidal feelings.
• Resources about depression …if you are suicidal, you are most likely experiencing some form of depression. This is good news, because depression can be treated, helping you feel better.

Do you know someone who is suicidal… or would you like to be able to help, if the situation arises? Learn what to do, so that you can make the situation better, not worse.

• Handling a call from a suicidal person …a very helpful ten-point list that you can print out and keep near your phone or computer.
• What can I do to help someone who may be suicidal? …a helpful guide, includes Suicide Warning Signs.

Other online sources of help:

• The Samaritans - trained volunteers are available 24 hours a day to listen and provide emotional support. You can call a volunteer on the phone, or e-mail them. Confidential and non-judgmental. Short of writing to a psychotherapist, the best source of online help.
• Talk to a therapist online - Read this page to find out how.
• Depression support group online: Walkers in Darkness - Please note: this is a very big group, but amidst all the chatter (and occasional bickering), it is possible to find someone who will hear you and offer support.
• Psych Central has a good listing of online resources for suicide and other mental health needs.
• Still feel bad? These jokes might relieve the pressure for a minute or two.
• If you want help finding a human being to talk with in person, who can help you live through this, try reading this article about how to Choose a Competent Counselor.

Sometimes people need additional private help before they are ready to talk with someone in person. Here are three books you could read on your own in private. I know from personal experience that each one has helped someone like you.

• Suicide: The Forever Decision by Paul G. Quinnett, PhD (Continuum, 1989, $8.95, ISBN 0-8264-0391-3). Frank and helpful conversation with a therapist who cares. Order the book
• Choosing to Live: how to defeat suicide through cognitive therapy by Thomas E. Ellis PsyD and Cory F. Newman PhD (New Harbinger Publications, 1996, $12.95, ISBN 1-57224-056-3). Another conversational book with practical help for suicidal persons. Order the book
• How I Stayed Alive When My Brain Was Trying to Kill Me: One Person’s Guide to Suicide Prevention by Susan Rose Blauner (William Morrow, 2002, $17.47, ISBN 0066211212). A very practical survival guide by an actual survivor. Order the book

• Out of the Nightmare: Recovery From Depression And Suicidal Pain, by David L. Conroy, PhD (Authors Choice Press, 2006, ISBN 0595414974). As if suicidal persons weren’t feeling bad enough already, our thoughtless attitudes can cause them to feel guilt and shame, and keep them from getting help in time. Dr. Conroy blasts apart the myths of suicide, and looks at suicidal feelings from the inside, in a down to earth, non-judgmental way. This is a book that will save lives by washing away the stigma of suicide and opening the door to a real way out of the nightmare. More info and reviews

• Open Source
  • All source code is freely accessible; there are no secrets, no proprietary ties, no license fees. See The Open Source Page.

• Fast
  • Linux is fast, and will run on lesser hardware than many other modern operating systems. Your old 486 can omething useful again with Linux.

• Stable
  • Linux is stable. It normally doesn’t crash. A Linux server can be up for hundreds of days.

• Transparent
  • With Linux, you can always find out what the system is doing, and why. All configuration files are in plain text. Linux will do what you ask it for, no more, no less. It doesn’t do magic stuff behind your back.
• In rapid development
  • Linux develops from day to day. Often you can get bugfixes within a few days from when the bug was reported. You can, however, also choose to run a stable version and only upgrade when security problems are found, or when a major release takes place.
• Many programs
  • There is a great amount of software available for Linux, for free download on the Internet. Furthermore a wide variety of commercial software is available if your needs aren’t satisifed by the free software.
• True Multi-Tasking
  • Linux provides the ability to run more than one program at the same time. Linux also supports multiple processors as standard.
• Born on the Internet
  • Linux has been network enabled since the very beginning. Networking and Internet tools are built into the system. Linux is the leading operating system for Internet servers.
• X-Window System
  • Linux comes with an excellent window system called X, as well as several Window Managers where you can set up your preferred look & feel, virtual desktops, window behaviour etc.
• From super computer to handheld
  • Linux can be used on a wide range of computers, for a wide range of purposes. It can be used as a webserver or file server, a firewall, a desktop computer, in a cluster of PC’s making a super computer for scientific calculations. It can run on Sun Sparc, MIPS and Alpha processors, PowerPC, handhelds and much more. Linux has even been ported to a wrist watch!

1. Scientific tests find that when women make love, they produce double amounts of the hormone estrogen, which make hair shiny and skin smooth.

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscles in the body. It’s more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps and you don’t need special sneakers!

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases the body endorphin into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.

6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy!

7. Sex is the safest tranquillizer in the world. It is 10 times more effective than Valium.

8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.

9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.

10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

In this tutorial I use the hostname openhell.org with the IP address 192.168.0.100. These settings might differ for you, so you have to replace them where appropriate.

Make sure that you are logged in as root (type in

sudo su

to become root), because we must run all the steps from this tutorial as root user. Also, if you want to use vi as your text editor (as suggested by this tutorial), you should run

apt-get install vim-full

The vim-full package makes sure that the vi text editor behaves as expected (without vim-full, you might experience some strange behaviour in the vi text editor).

2 Install MySQL And phpMyAdmin

This can all be installed with one single command:

apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient15-dev phpmyadmin apache2

You will be asked two questions:

New password for the MySQL “root” user: <– yourrootsqlpassword (password of your choice)
Web server to reconfigure automatically: <– apache2

3 Install PureFTPd With MySQL Support

For Ubuntu 7.10 there is a pre-configured pure-ftpd-mysql package available. Install it like this:

apt-get install pure-ftpd-mysql

Then we create an ftp group (ftpgroup) and user (ftpuser) that all our virtual users will be mapped to. Replace the group- and userid 2001 with a number that is free on your system:

groupadd -g 2001 ftpgroup
useradd -u 2001 -s /bin/false -d /bin/null -c “pureftpd user” -g ftpgroup ftpuser

4 Create The MySQL Database For PureFTPd

Now we create a database called pureftpd and a MySQL user named pureftpd which the PureFTPd daemon will use later on to connect to the pureftpd database:

mysql -u root -p

CREATE DATABASE pureftpd;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP ON pureftpd.* TO ‘pureftpd’@'localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘ftpdpass’;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP ON pureftpd.* TO ‘pureftpd’@'localhost.localdomain’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘ftpdpass’;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Replace the string ftpdpass with whatever password you want to use for the MySQL user pureftpd. Still on the MySQL shell, we create the database table we need (yes, there is only one table!):

USE pureftpd;

CREATE TABLE ftpd (
User varchar(16) NOT NULL default ”,
status enum(’0′,’1′) NOT NULL default ‘0′,
Password varchar(64) NOT NULL default ”,
Uid varchar(11) NOT NULL default ‘-1′,
Gid varchar(11) NOT NULL default ‘-1′,
Dir varchar(128) NOT NULL default ”,
ULBandwidth smallint(5) NOT NULL default ‘0′,
DLBandwidth smallint(5) NOT NULL default ‘0′,
comment tinytext NOT NULL,
ipaccess varchar(15) NOT NULL default ‘*’,
QuotaSize smallint(5) NOT NULL default ‘0′,
QuotaFiles int(11) NOT NULL default 0,
PRIMARY KEY (User),
UNIQUE KEY User (User)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

quit;

As you may have noticed, with the quit; command we have left the MySQL shell and are back on the Linux shell.

BTW, (I’m assuming that the hostname of your ftp server system is server1.example.com) you can access phpMyAdmin under http://openhell.org/phpmyadmin/ (you can also use the IP address instead of server1.example.com) in a browser and log in as the user pureftpd. Then you can have a look at the database. Later on you can use phpMyAdmin to administrate your PureFTPd server.

5 Configure PureFTPd

Edit /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf. It should look like this:

cp /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf_orig
cat /dev/null > /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf
vi /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf

MYSQLSocket      /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

#MYSQLServer     localhost

#MYSQLPort       3306

MYSQLUser       pureftpd

MYSQLPassword   ftpdpass

MYSQLDatabase   pureftpd

#MYSQLCrypt md5, cleartext, crypt() or password() - md5 is VERY RECOMMENDABLE uppon cleartext

MYSQLCrypt      md5

MYSQLGetPW      SELECT Password FROM ftpd WHERE User="L" AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MYSQLGetUID     SELECT Uid FROM ftpd WHERE User="L" AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MYSQLGetGID     SELECT Gid FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MYSQLGetDir     SELECT Dir FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MySQLGetBandwidthUL SELECT ULBandwidth FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MySQLGetBandwidthDL SELECT DLBandwidth FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MySQLGetQTASZ   SELECT QuotaSize FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

MySQLGetQTAFS   SELECT QuotaFiles FROM ftpd WHERE User="L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "R")

Make sure that you replace the string ftpdpass with the real password for the MySQL user pureftpd in the line MYSQLPassword! Please note that we use md5 as MYSQLCrypt method, which means we will store the users’ passwords as an MD5 string in the database which is far more secure than using plain text passwords!

Then create the file /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/ChrootEveryone which simply contains the string yes:

echo “yes” > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/ChrootEveryone

This will make PureFTPd chroot every virtual user in his home directory so he will not be able to browse directories and files outside his home directory.

Also create the file /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir which again simply contains the string yes:

echo “yes” > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir

This will make PureFTPd create a user’s home directory when the user logs in and the home directory does not exist yet.

Afterwards, we restart PureFTPd:

/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql restart

6 Populate The Database And Test

To populate the database you can use the MySQL shell:

mysql -u root -p

USE pureftpd;

Now we create the user exampleuser with the status 1 (which means his ftp account is active), the password secret (which will be stored encrypted using MySQL’s MD5 function), the UID and GID 2001 (use the userid and groupid of the user/group you created at the end of step two!), the home directory /home/www.example.com, an upload and download bandwidth of 100 KB/sec. (kilobytes per second), and a quota of 50 MB:

INSERT INTO `ftpd` (`User`, `status`, `Password`, `Uid`, `Gid`, `Dir`, `ULBandwidth`, `DLBandwidth`, `comment`, `ipaccess`, `QuotaSize`, `QuotaFiles`) VALUES (’exampleuser’, ‘1′, MD5(’secret’), ‘2001′, ‘2001′, ‘/home/www.example.com’, ‘100′, ‘100′, ”, ‘*’, ‘50′, ‘0′);

quit;

Now open your FTP client program on your work station (something like WS_FTP or SmartFTP if you are on a Windows system or gFTP or FileZilla on a Linux desktop) and try to connect. As hostname you use server1.example.com (or the IP address of the system), the username is exampleuser, and the password is secret.

If you are able to connect - congratulations! If not, something went wrong.

Now, if you run

ls -l /home

you should see that the directory /home/www.example.com (exampleuser’s home directory) has been automatically created, and it is owned by ftpuser and ftpgroup (the user/group we created at the end of step two):

root@server1:~# ls -l /home
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 administrator administrator 4096 2007-10-18 11:35 administrator
drwxr-xr-x 2 ftpuser ftpgroup 4096 2007-10-29 14:29 www.example.com
root@server1:~#

7 Database Administration

For most people it is easier if they have a graphical front-end to MySQL; therefore you can also use phpMyAdmin (in this example under http://openhell.org/phpmyadmin/) to administrate the pureftpd database.

Whenever you want to create a new user, you have to create an entry in the table ftpd so I will explain the columns of this table here:

ftpd Table:

• User: The name of the virtual PureFTPd user (e.g. exampleuser).
• status: 0 or 1. 0 means the account is disabled, the user cannot login.
• Password: The password of the virtual user. Make sure you use MySQL’s MD5 function to save the password encrypted as an MD5 string:
• 
• UID: The userid of the ftp user you created at the end of step two (e.g. 2001).
• GID: The groupid of the ftp group you created at the end of step two (e.g. 2001).
• Dir: The home directory of the virtual PureFTPd user (e.g. /home/www.example.com). If it does not exist, it will be created when the new user logs in the first time via FTP. The virtual user will be jailed into this home directory, i.e., he cannot access other directories outside his home directory.
• ULBandwidth: Upload bandwidth of the virtual user in KB/sec. (kilobytes per second). 0 means unlimited.
• DLBandwidth: Download bandwidth of the virtual user in KB/sec. (kilobytes per second). 0 means unlimited.
• comment: You can enter any comment here (e.g. for your internal administration) here. Normally you leave this field empty.
• ipaccess: Enter IP addresses here that are allowed to connect to this FTP account. * means any IP address is allowed to connect.
• QuotaSize: Storage space in MB (not KB, as in ULBandwidth and DLBandwidth!) the virtual user is allowed to use on the FTP server. 0 means unlimited.
• QuotaFiles: amount of files the virtual user is allowed to save on the FTP server. 0 means unlimited.

8 Anonymous FTP

If you want to create an anonymous ftp account (an ftp account that everybody can login to without a password), you can do it like this:

First create a user ftp (with the homedir /home/ftp) and group ftp:

groupadd ftp
useradd -s /bin/false -d /home/ftp -m -c “anonymous ftp” -g ftp ftp

Then create the file /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/NoAnonymous which contains the string no:

echo “no” > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/NoAnonymous

With this configuration, PureFTPd will allow anonymous logins.

Restart PureFTPd:

/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql restart

Then we create the directory /home/ftp/incoming which will allow anonymous users to upload files. We will give the /home/ftp/incoming directory permissions of 311 so that users can upload, but not see or download any files in that directory. The /home/ftp directory will have permissions of 555 which allows seeing and downloading of files:

cd /home/ftp
mkdir incoming
chown ftp:nogroup incoming/
chmod 311 incoming/
cd ../
chmod 555 ftp/

Now anonymous users can login, and they can download files from /home/ftp, but uploads are limited to /home/ftp/incoming (and once a file is uploaded into /home/ftp/incoming, it cannot be read nor downloaded from there; the server admin has to move it into /home/ftp first to make it available to others).

“GEGEN DIE WAND“, un film regizat de Fatih AKIN si premiat cu Ursul de Aur in cadrul Festivalului de Film de la Berlin, este povestea a doi emigranti turci in Germania contemporana si a traiectoriilor adesea autodistructive pe care se arunca cei doi in incercarea de a-si gasi fericirea.

 Inspirat din Blow Up al lui Michelangelo ANTONIONI, filmul lui COPPOLA il are in centru pe Harry Caul, un expert în sisteme de supraveghere audio paranoic care descopera intr-una din inregistrarile facute de el indicii despre o posibila crima ce ar urma sa se produca.

Filmul, compus din relatarile contradictorii a patru martori ai unei crime petrecute in Japonia medievala, a lasat o amprenta semnificativa asupra istoriei filmului, introducand pentru prima data anumite, atat la nivel narativ (perspectivele contradictorii) cat si tehnic (KUROSAWA a fost unul dintre primii cineasti care sa filmeze direct soarele). Filmul a fost atat de influent incat a dat pana la urma numele unui efect psihologic legat tocmai de subiectivitatea perceptiei martorilor la un eveniment oarecare.

Hmmm, something here just doesn’t add up.

I did, before I am flamed inexorably, buy Mandrake 8.0 Powerpack last year. Nice manuals, lots of stuff. Got it on my home computer but somehow, someway, I just could not make it do all the things I wanted.

Now, this is partly me, I know. I am no hacker. I am a General Practitioner (family doctor) in Glasgow in the UK, who grew up with ZX Spectrums and Tandys and BBC Micros and fell in love with the potential of the Information Age before I even knew what it was. I believe that information wants to be free, and found the Free software movement to be a natural fit with this ideology. So a few years back I murdered a 486 by shoehorning Suse 6 point something (purchased with real money from PC World) onto it. This was a steep learning curve. Disk partitioning was a mystery, X was a beast, fonts were unreadable, dial up access an adventure , the browser sucked and the word processor - well, I am not even sure I got that far.

But something clicked. For all the troubles there was a lot about it that made sense. And it was another way of doing personal computing. And anyway, just why should any one company control and dictate how I use my computers? If stuff is to be free, information access ubiquitous, then the tools to access it must be free. Why commit the Information Divide to habit or statute?

So, that was 1998 or so, I think. And since then I have progressed through various iterations of Gnu/Linux on various bits of hardware but never, on no single occasion, have I been able to run and sustain a Gnu/Linux desktop for day to day use at home. It has always fallen down somewhere along the line. Simple stuff, really. Printing fails, cut and paste does not work, you cannot access your Windows shares, the file system breaks and appears unfixable without a PhD, mounting, Netscape 4.7 (ugh!), Star Office 5 (ugh, ugh!), 3D acceleration, fonts, mouse wheels, USB, dependency hell, rpms, abstract command lines, compile this, then that, then do ten more things, but don’t forget that or you will have to do it all again this way, with that library, oh, and by the way - your kernel just does not support Lusers!

Until now, that is.

Mandrake 9.0 does it. Installation was un-challenging. KDE 3 is very pretty and infinitely tweakable. I upgraded to Mozilla 1.2.1, sorted out rights to my Windows XP share, played MP3s, ripped and encoded a Coldplay CD, edited Word documents, studied for my medical informatics diploma, e-mailed people and managed IMAP folders, cropped and resized some jpegs with GIMP, downloaded some other stuff and used graphical tools to install them. It is solid, nice to look at and an absolute pleasure to use. And I have a scrolling mouse wheel, 3D acceleration, printing, anti-aliasing, USB disk drives and above all, Tux Racer.

So, some of this I have achieved because I am moderately techy and not afraid of a shell prompt. I have learned how to use chmod and less and ls but, to be honest, not much more. I am a sad Luser really. I like GUI stuff. I also have a busy, busy job, two children, a cat and far too many other things to do. So I need stuff to work quickly and well, and if it does not then I need to use something that does.

Mostly, however, my success with this desktop is down to you lot - the ethereal “Open Source Community” and your intellect, inspiration and vision. And of course, the very, very nice people at Mandrake, who packaged it all up and made it free to download. Thank you!

You have just hit the place I need you to be - delivering a stable, usable, personal desktop - and I am sure you can only get better. When my (unexpectedly high) January tax bills are paid, and I have a little free cash again, I will join the Mandrake Club, or buy 9.1. I promise. If you are still around, that is. And if you are not I will be sad because, whilst I know that the code is all Free, the philosophy, drive, and team spirit that delivers the Mandrake distribution is not. And all that would be lost.

So, make no mistake, the demise of Linux Mandrake would be a very sad thing for us users and for the Open Source Community as a whole.

I really like my Mandrake Gnu/Linux box. I like liberty, and I like using my computer. So Mandrake, I would miss you. I wish you well.

And if you can hang on another three months or so, I’ll even give you some money again.

Testing out my scanner with a snippet from David Boring that seemed quite apt…

O noapte, un hangout, doi cretini şi un public revoltat. Puţină plictiseală şi un gram de, nu, nu de-ăla; de inspiraţie proastă. O cameră de filmat, o un pix şi un scenariu pe juma’ de pagină pătată cu bere răsuflată. Un pat, o perinuţă în formă de inimoară cu o buburuză, o bere desfăcută, un pachet de ţigări fumat forţat datorită dublelor datorate incapabilităţii lui Bostan de a se abţine; un capac de WC, o brichetă aruncată prea departe şi prea multă gălăgie pentru ora 3 AM. Presărăm una bucată casă de producţie fantomă cu un logo=topor, şi ne-am ars.

Acestea şi nu doar atît, ca ingrediente pentru noul meu blockbuster. Nu, nu glumesc, sunt doar inconştient de ce vorbesc. N-a ieşit bine, a ieşit aşa cum am vrut. Ceva gen “Hahaha! Pula meaa!” după prima vizionare, iar apoi un rînjet de “Vai ce proşti…”.

Aveţi permisiunea de a fi prea critici, şi aştept comentarii.
[hint: sub post scrie "n comments". Da, ăla este un link. Da, acolo apăsaţi să lăsaţi comentarii. Da, asta e psihologie persuasivă. Nu mă faceţi s-o folosesc pe aia inversă]
