Note to the world, Best Buy not only sucks but sucks even worse to work for ....
P.S. - Microsoft still sucks just a little bit harder than Best Buy.

Ubuntu Linux dominates the PC world....
I find myself killing time at Barnes and Noble every now and then. This last trip to the cafe portion of the store, I sit down with a cafeine fix and a few magazines, LinuxWorld Mag., Linux Mag., and PC World. PC World has a list of 2005's top 100 products and guess what Ubuntu Linux scores? #19 .... a linux distro has invaded the Windows world and is kicking ass while taking names; needless to say, I am very amused and satisfied by this for many reasons and one of the main reasons being the fact that Ubuntu is a Debian derivitive.
So I flip open LinuxWorld Mag. next and it is kind enough to have a column giving a rather large amount of props to Debian for being the most stable, most un-talked about bad ass distro around and informs most people that Debian's inovation is widely used, but most people don't realize that when they use Ubuntu, MEPIS, Knoppix, Damn Small, etc. that they are actually using a Debian system that has been customized for whatever each distro aims at. Next the article goes on to exclaim that the apt system that has been around in Debian for many years is just reciently being ported to distros like SuSE, Fedora Core, Mandrake, and other rpm based distros by using the new apt4rpm system that is taking the linux world by storm ... so what is the moral of this blog? the simple fact that Debian dominates all, always has and always will ... thus is why I have their trademark swirl tattooed on my left ass cheak and running on my server ... that's right ... got a problem with it? kiss my tattoo .... and my server :)

My English Class....
I currently sit infront of a dumb terminal (and I use the term loosely) in English 165 taught by Rita Raju, the stupid bitch that has yet to merit a degree, but for some reason they are allowing her to teach us.
First, I want to go off on a tangent about the damned terminal I sit infront of. Not only does this peice of shit run on WinXP but it is also a Dell. I don't have a big beef with Dell, it just annoys those of us who got excited when they claimed to offer Linux as an alternate OS when purchasing hardware from them and then renigging on the offer. Then we shall get to the machine itself, they put far too much money into CPU speed and not enough into amount of RAM, the damned thing is running somewhere around a 2.8GHz P4 and only has 256MB of RAM. My workstation in my dorm has the same amount of RAM, but I am also only running a 1GHz PIII and well ... Linux can manage memory much better than this interesting chunk of code. Then we must focus on the interesting fact that the network (WinStall) packages are managed by students who aren't entirely fluent in the working of a network nor their protocols, thus making one think that the network would be sluggish at best.
Now, back to the stupid bitch standing infront of me. I have an issue with a human being who claims to have been a teacher of English for 15 years and yet still can't speak it worth a shit, I seriously want to throw something at her with the hope to correct her speach upon impact. Her grammar is annoying and she enjoys telling me that my essays are plagorized (spelling?) because I am too lazy to make a works cited, FUCK HER. She is the most contradictory human being on the planet and there ins't a single student who respects her, enjoys her class, or can take her seriously. If she was not in control of my grades, I would without a doubt, 0wn the shit out of her.

Testing... 1... 2...
Ok, and thus my first rant. I attempt to sit down a few days ago to write something intelligent about the fact that my University's definition of Computer Science for Non-majors is rather pathetic and low and behold my new found "google-zon" service felt the need to deny my the ability to update my blog. Not to mention the second review I plan to do in the (hopefully) not so near future about the new google file system that in my belief is the first step towards the Google-Grid, and the fall of modern news, fact, and civilization. But no worries, by then I hope that by then we will all be intelligent enough for our opinions to be worth while for spectators. Oh, and I will also be publishing my friend's rant about our campus food and will make note that it is his writing, but I can't not put it out on the web for the world to see. Ok, well until next time.... $exit

A new beginning
On this day we embrace not only the start of a new blog, but the beginning of my own personal rebirth into the world in which I find myself. I named my journal after my computer, cheesy you say? Then you obviously don't know me that well. Anyways, I will do many random things with this blog, everything from ranting about life to writing reviews about certain technologies from cell phones to super computers, it will prove to be quite the compilation of randomness.
