I've often stated that if we were to take measure of the average US citizen's IQ, based on their television viewing habits, they would place comfortably between a bag of hammers and....uh, Kim Kardashian. Don't laugh, I don't think there is much of a spread there at all. Remember folks, every time Jersey Shore airs, billions of brain cells die. Which is probably fine since they weren't being used anyway.

HealthCheck: Linux Mint

Mint is popular for many reasons. The distribution is easy to use, and its software choices are community driven. The core distribution is based on Ubuntu, and remains sufficiently like Ubuntu to catch the imagination of escapees (permanent or temporary) from the GNOME shell and Unity. But where Ubuntu (and GNOME) have taken a leap of faith in an attempt to anticipate the desires of future users, Mint is intent on satisfying the demands of its current users, which is to produce a desktop that is both innovative and closer to GNOME 2.

A Bash Shell Script to Update Firefox Nightly

  • Djere.com; By Rex Djere (Posted by acrossad on Jan 11, 2012 5:00 PM EDT)
  • Story Type: Tutorial; Groups: Fedora
I recently migrated from Firefox to the more cutting edge Firefox Nightly. As its name implies, Firefox Nightly is updated on a nightly basis. The reason for my switch initially was to get access to a 64-bit version of Firefox on my Windows 7 system. I fell in love with Nightly, so much so that I now use it on ALL of my computer systems. Unfortunately, there is no yum repository for Nightly yet (as far as I know), so I can't update Nightly automatically. My solution was to write my own Bash shell script to semi-automate the process. I just run the script once a day (late in the day so that I run it after the daily update). The script downloads the latest Nightly build for GNU/Linux, unpacks it, installs it, and then deletes all of the downloaded files.

Raspberry Pi Model B in production

Raspberry Pis started being made a couple of days ago, but I was forbidden to tell you about it until signed contracts and receipts for payment had arrived – it’s been killing me, especially since I’ve had tens of you asking me when manufacturing would start every day for the last few weeks. I am not good at keeping secrets.
