Staring out the window at the world that surrounds me in this little place that I like to call home. Got my favorite mouse Norm here. Looking at the wall - needs a color change. Will we ever get a hold of the craziness?
HP: The Linux distributor?
What Ive read today:
Hardware companies don't tend to have their own Linux distributions. IBM uses Linux everywhere, but they don't have their own Linux. Dell will be happy to sell you notebooks and netbooks with Ubuntu or a workstation or server with RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux). But, no major OEM (original equipment manufacturer) has had a house-brand Linux... until now. HP has recently bought not one, but two ...
And this:
Linux Magazine: "Ubuntu has played a large role in the rise in popularity of Linux, but it's not everyone's cup of tea. If you don't like it, change it. And that's exactly what a small group of Linux loving hackers are doing. Meet, elementary."
As well as:
Linux Magazine has a profile of Daniel Fore and the Elementary project. Elementary is a Linux distro that's committed to a clean and simple user experience, but it's more than a distro - it's actually a multi-pronged effort to make improvements to the user experience for a whole ecosystem of components, including icons, a GTK theme, Midori improvements, Nautilus, and even Firefox.

Armando Galarraga's perfect game is stolen by Jim Joyce, which of course makes Hitler very upset.
You should check this out:
Armando Galarraga throws a perfect game for Detroit, only to have umpire Jim Joyce deny him with a blown call. Even Hitler is upset with the injustice and suggests that Bud Selig reverse the call. My appreciation to Oliver Hirschbiegel, the director of the movie %26ampquot;Der Untergang%26ampquot; (Downfall) from which this scene is taken, for his reasonable response to the viral repurposing of his footage. Much respect to Bruno Ganz for his interpretation of the doomed Hitler which has become so iconic. This clip is a fair-use parody of the original source material which is not meant to replace said original material in any manner. 6/03/10 JIm Joyce's response to his mistake deserves the highest praise. He has faced the issue head on instead of hiding from it like so many have before. I find it curiously ironic that the blown call that took away the perfect game instead gave both Galarraga and Joyce the chance to display a level of sportsmanship and humanity that will ensure that this one hitter is remembered long after other perfect games are forgotten. Bud Selig is still a tool though. 6/05/10------------------------------------------------------------- In case you are interested in any of the events I have referenced in the video, here is a selection of links for you to explore. While I realize that the wikipedia links are sometimes less than scholarly, I have included them because I think they will be stable, non-disappearing, links for you to begin further exploration at. 0:22 %26ampquot;already %26amplt;b%26ampgt;...%26amplt;/b%26ampgt;Armando Galarraga's perfect game is stolen by Jim Joyce, which of course makes Hitler very upset.

Outside the door with the cool letters on it. Got the cousins visiting and need to show em a good time tomorrow. Playing a few math tricks in my head to keep my brain moving. You know, Im beginning to think that theres something pretty amazing in my future.

Watching this crazy little world spin around with me on it. Just me, myself and I. Pretending that Im some cool world leader with all of the possibilities of a true dictator playing out before me. Will we ever get a hold of the craziness?

Check this out:
Sounders FC vs Boca Juniors 3-0 05/26/10 International Friendly. Sounders FC M/F Brad Evans with a big miss in front of net that we all know he wishes he could do over.
