CrunchBang Linux

Looked at them, seemed like a decent idea, but way too overpriced. Would rather just buy a decent laptop, wipe Windows, and install some Linux distro. Be cheaper.

The font I used is called Cranberry Gin. I have no idea where I found it. Also, I like your desktop. Nice set-up.

Thank you. I have noticed that you really go all out with conky. They really are impressive, such as, the DS9 set-up.

Thank you. I try to match all the colours in conky and tint2 to the wallpaper. Nice set-up you have. I like seeing the various WM out there. Some just look amazing.

@rstrcogburn: I like the Duke ascii art.

Trust me, I've thought about it.

I use Deja-dup on my desktop. Basically simplifies the process. My netbook I back-up manually.

I currently use Turpial. The only complaint I have is that it "tweets" every time there is a new tweet. Gets to be annoying after awhile. Maybe I'm missing something, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it not "tweet". Other than that, it works like a charm.

Thanks for the heads up on the site. Now I just need to get an e-reader or something. Mostly I just read actual books.

I just want to make a My Little Pony Linux. Just think of the themes. The pinks. The purples. The rainbows.

Well, I feel bad for being late to the party. I would have suggested Kubuntu. Oh well.

A Buddhist themed distro?

Okay, for many other reasons I am going to download this give it a test run. I guess that means I need to hack out another partition and triple boot. I've got #! and Bodhi on here already.

I'm still mixed on how I feel about Unity. Time will tell how successful Unity will be. I have stated before, I'm a KDE fanboy. I rode out the transition to KDE 4 and now, many releases later, KDE is the best DE out there. Will Unity become something great?

I can't really hate Ubuntu for trying to make Linux more accessible. Far too often we, in a community, tend to hate something once it becomes popular. As if, its popularity now gives us a reason to hate the one thing we once loved. Most people I know came to Linux through Ubuntu. If more people come to Linux through Ubuntu and Unity so be it. There will be those that drift out to find better distros to suit their needs.

All this talk and people forgot about BSD? And no love for the "others" out there, Plan 9, Haiku, Solaris?

But back to the point, yeah, I have yet to figure out a way to successful explain Linux without sounding like a nerd. Oh well. I usually tell people that by running Linux I actually own my computer.

Computer fan and barking dogs.
