Debian For Android Installer Released

dooberrymctavish writes "You can now download an installer and bootloader for getting Debian running on your Android (G1 at the moment) device; the whole install process will take you about 10 minutes, and leaves you with access to the full plethora of programs available in Debian and lets you continue using your phone as it was intended to be: as an Android device with all the capabilities thereof. Here's a look at it running.

    The only thing more pathetic than a PC user is a PC user trying to be a Mac user. We have a name for you people: switcheurs.

    There's a good reason for your vexation at the Mac's user interface: You don't speak its language. Remember that the Mac was designed by artists, for artists, be they poets, musicians, or avant-garde mathematicians. A shiny new Mac can introduce your frathouse hovel to a modicum of good taste, but it can't make Mac users out of dweebs and squares like you.

    So don't force what doesn't come naturally. You'll be much happier if you stick to an OS that suits your personality. And you'll be doing the rest of us a favor, too; you leave Macs to Mac users, and we'll leave beige to you.

      A few years ago, while browsing around the library downtown, I had to take a piss. As I entered the john, a big beautiful all-American football hero type, about twenty five, came out of one of the booths. I stood at the urinal looking at him out of the corner of my eye as he washed his hands. He didn't once look at me. He was "straight" and married -- and in any case I was sure I wouldn't have a chance with him.

      As soon as he left, I darted into the booth he'd vacated, hoping there might be a lingering smell of shit and even a seat still warm from his sturdy young ass. I found not only the smell but the shit itself. He'd forgotten to flush. And what a treasure he had left behind. Three or four beautiful specimens floated in the bowl. It apparently had been a fairly dry, constipated shit, for all were fat, stiff, and ruggedly textured. The real prize was a great feast of turd -- a nine inch gastrointestinal triumph as thick as a man's wrist. I knelt before the bowl, inhaling the rich brown fragrance and wondered if I should obey the impulse building up inside me. I'd always been a heavy rimmer and had lapped up more than one little clump of shit, but that had been just an inevitable part of eating ass and not an end in itself.

      Of course I'd had jerkoff fantasies of devouring great loads of it (what rimmer hasn't?), but I had never done it. Now, here I was, confronted with the most beautiful five-pound turd I'd ever feasted my eyes on, a sausage fit to star in any fantasy and one I knew to have been hatched from the asshole of the world's handsomest young stud.

      Why not? I plucked it from the bowl, holding it with both hands to keep it from breaking.

      I lifted it to my nose. It smelled like rich, ripe limburger (horrid, but thrilling), yet had the consistency of cheddar. What is cheese anyway but milk turning to shit without the benefit of a digestive tract? I gave it a lick and found that it tasted better then it smelled. I've found since then that shit nearly almost does. I hesitated no longer. I shoved the fucking thing as far into my mouth as I could get it and sucked on it like a big brown cock, beating my meat like a madman. I wanted to completely engulf it and bit off a large chunk, flooding my mouth with the intense, bittersweet flavor. To my delight I found that while the water in the bowl had chilled the outside of the turd, it was still warm inside. As I chewed I discovered that it was filled with hard little bits of something I soon identified as peanuts. He hadn't chewed them carefully and they'd passed through his body virtually unchanged. I ate it greedily, sending lump after peanutty lump sliding scratchily down my throat. My only regret was the donor of this feast wasn't there to wash it down with his piss. I soon reached a terrific climax. I caught my cum in the cupped palm of my hand and drank it down. Believe me, there is no more delightful combination of flavors than the hot sweetness of cum with the rich bitterness of shit. Afterwards I was sorry that I hadn't made it last longer. But then I realized that I still had a lot of fun in store for me. There was still a clutch of virile turds left in the bowl. I tenderly fished them out, rolled them into my hankercheif, and stashed them in my briefcase.

      In the week to come I found all kinds of ways to eat the shit without bolting it right down. Once eaten it's gone forever unless you want to filch it third hand out of your own asshole -- not an unreasonable recourse in moments of desperation or simple boredom.

      I stored the turds in the refrigerator when I was not using them but within a week they were all gone.

      The last one I held in my mouth without chewing, letting it slowly dissolve. I had liquid shit trickling down my throat for nearly four hours. I must have had six orgasms in the process. I often think of that lovely young guy dropping solid gold out of his sweet, pink asshole every day, never knowing what joy it could, and at least once did,bring to a grateful shiteater.

    Pittsburgh police detectives are trying to identify a man who sexually
    assaulted two women this week in Shadyside and Hazelwood by crawling
    through open windows.

    The rapist assaulted the first woman in the early morning hours
    Wednesday and the second Thursday morning.

    "I understand its been hot and humid and people leave their windows
    open, but people need to make sure they do so in a way so that someone
    can't gain entry to their house," Pittsburgh police Deputy Chief Earl
    Woodyard said.

    Police described the suspect as a thin black man in his 20s, between
    5-foot-7 and 6 feet tall. He had braided hair and wore a do-rag, police
    said.

    In the first assault, he crawled through an open, first-floor window of
    an apartment building in the 6300 block of Fifth Avenue in Shadyside
    between 1:15 a.m. and 1:30 a.m. The woman living there was sleeping and
    heard a noise but didn't get up to investigate. He entered the woman's
    bedroom and sexually assaulted her before leaving through the front
    door, Woodyard said.

    About 7:30 a.m. on Thursday, a woman living in a multi-unit home in the
    700 block of Hazelwood Avenue in Hazelwood awoke to find a man in her
    bedroom. The man, who fit the description of the Shadyside attacker,
    held a do rag over his face as he sexually assaulted the woman, Woodyard
    said. The suspect had crawled through an open window.

    When the suspect left the Hazelwood victim's apartment, she saw him
    drive away in a tan, newermodel sedan. That victim told police her
    attacker smelled heavily of cologne.

    "Because the second victim didn't hear any noises, but awoke to find him
    in her bedroom, we don't know how long he was in the apartment,"
    Woodyard said. "We also don't know if anything was taken from the
    victims during either assault."

    In both incidents, the victims screamed once, and the suspect told them
    to stop. But both victims screamed again.

    Woodyard said the suspect didn't threaten either victim with a weapon.
    "It's possible he may get more courageous and strike again since both of
    these incidents happened so close together," Woodyard said.

    "Particularly since the second assault happened at a time when it's
    light outside and people are moving about."

    Police are investigating whether the suspect targeted the women in
    advance. The first victim is married, but was home alone, and the second
    victim lived alone, Woodyard said. Both victims are in their 20s.

    Woodyard said investigators are encouraging any other victims or anyone
    with information to call city sex crimes detectives at 4123237141.

    Did You Know? After maintaining a vow of silence for almost 7 years, Red Hat Linux founder Marc Ewing now freely admits that he named Red Hat Linux after Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst's trademark red New York Yankees baseball cap.
    Durst and Ewing met in Ewing's hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina (Durst was raised in Gastonia, NC), where they became fast friends, sharing the same passion for low-level system programming.
    Durst collaborated with Ewing on the first preview beta of Red Hat Linux before the demands of his rocketing stardom forced him to abandon his hobby and tour with his band.
    Durst's position on the development team was filled by Damien Neil, and not many know of his contribution to the popular Linux distribution; however, a google search through the source code on Redhat.com (http://www.google.com/search?q=wfd+site:redhat.com) reveals many snippets of code authored by 'wfd', Durst's initials (William Frederick Durst).
    Durst asked Ewing to keep his 'geeky' roots a secret as it would not lend itself to Durst's bad boy image, but as Ewing points out, it was "only a matter of time" before the origins of his NASDAQ-100 company's name were uncovered.
