The trouble with the news is that everybody knows everything too fast and too often and too many times.
News has always been bad. The tiger that lives in the forest just ate your wife and kids, Joe. There are no fat
grub worms under the rotten logs this year, Al. Those sickies in the village on the other side of the mountain
are training hairy mammoths to stomp us flat, Pete. They nailed up two thieves and one crackpot, Mary. So
devote wire service people and network people and syndication people to gathering up all the bad news they can
possibly dredge and comb and scrape out of a news-tired world and have them spray it back at everybody in
constant streams of electrons, and two things happen. First, we all stop listening, so they have to make it
even more horrendous to capture our attention. Secondly we all become even more convinced that everything
has gone rotten, and there is no hope at all, no hope at all. In a world of no hope the motto is semper
fidelis, which means in translation, “Every wee

How to Recreate My Linux Desktop
  • Install Ubuntu

    This isn't an endorsement of all of Canonical's design decisions, nor their community relations approach, but rather a recognition that as much as I'd like to like Fedora, it's just that much more difficult to use that I've never been able to make the jump. SuSE, meanwhile, lacks the same visibility with third party packagers, so it's out. I even contemplated an OS X switch recently, but I just can't justify replacing the hardware I have with Apple kit, which I'd have to do (I looked into the Hackintosh compatibility: no joy).

    So Ubuntu remains the best option for me. Your mileage may vary, obviously.

  • Install Dropbox

Everything important to me is in Dropbox. Files, music and movies, yes, but also my emacs config, my bash aliases, my non-packaged applications - everything. So it's the first thing I install. Because it would take days to reload everything from the network, however, I usually manually rsync the Dropbox directory to an external hard drive, then reverse the proces
