Sorcerer Review, and News of Impending Doom

osworks writes: "There is an review of the Sorcerer Linux distribution over at linuxworld.com that is worth a read. I've been running SGL on my Inspiron for a month now, and have the same impression as the author. It took a really long time to install, but was educational and rather fun. Some discouraging news near the bottom about how the maintainer needs some development help, or it will be the end of Sorcerer. This is one of the most exciting new distros to come along in a long time, and that would be a shame."

      I posted the same bug. It can be fixed by simply prepending a line break to the front of each ad.

  5. Thinking about going GNU? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    What does GNU mean for you ::

    I wrote this little guide for all of you new to the GNU/Hippie scene. Think of it as your orientation into the fascinating world of Open Sores, GNU and Free Software.

    So You Wanna Go GNUde (hahaha)

    Assuming you have never gotten GNUde, go to your C:\ prompt from windows and type FORMAT C:. Do NOT worry : You are FREEING yourself from productivity, accountability AND guess what? You never have to shower again!

    Whats Next??

    First, STOP getting haircuts. GNU Hippies do not cut their hair and a remember: the more species of bugs in your hair, the more GNU you are. Pick these bugs and eat them in front of straight laced executives for added GNU/FX.
    Second, get a flute. This is mandatory and those without are really just not GNU. Your flute highlights your sensitivity and will come in handy against burly fag bashers who mistake you for prey. Simply pull it out, play a Bavarian folk song and they will run the other way!
    Third, Microsoft SUCKS. We cannot stress this rule enough. Please say this numerous times in front of a mirror so that it becomes second nature. If you are having trouble, please consider purchasing our 18 min subliminal video which splices in the word microsoft and pictures of bill gates in with Nazi war footage and car crash scenes. Very effective.

    Perks
    The best perk about joining the GNU team is the ANAL sex. Thats right. We offer ANAL sex in ALL 50 US states (and canada). We also offer extended service plans throughout europe and some parts of Latin America and China (check local laws). Sorry, we do not service Africa.

    Well that about concludes this segment. Check back next week when we look at GNU Clothing options and the best place to take shits when you finally become homeless after giving away all your fucking software ya idiots
