Ubuntu 6.10 is Out

cloudmaster writes "Apparently they were watching me to see when I downloaded the 6.10-rc release isos, as I did that last night, and the full release happened this morning. :) Neat stuff, including Firefox 2.0, Gnome 2.16, myth 0.20, faster booting thanks to upstart (sort of a replacement for init, among others), etc. The announcement and download pages are up. I've got *my* torrent running..."

    Hey, at least this time we didn't get 8 previous stories "Ubuntu 6.06 releases next week!" "Ubuntu 6.06 releases tomorrow!" "Ubuntu 6.06 releases later todaay!"

    If you pay peanuts, you get elephants...you only get monkeys if you're willing to shell out some serious banannas. Rabbits can be had if you're willing to come up with the lettuce and, if you've got the cheese, you'll attract the mice - who will scare away the elephants you only paid peanuts for in the first place.

    On the other hand, if I need to get rid of an ass, I'll just tie a carrot to a stick and lead him away.

    My choice (NSFW)

    I recently picked up a live CD of dapper and wanted to put a pretty label on the disc. I found this on google images and it was good for a laugh. (No, I didn't use it, I used the most recent circle-of-people-looking-up version).

    ``Why do I have to write one of these, Woops, a hardware regression. posts every time a new Ubuntu version is released?''

    Because they release "on schedule", not "when it's done".
