I have debian stable running a mate DE. (and with compiz-fusion cuz eye candy). I can hover the mouse pointer over the network applet in my top panel and get my ip. Or i can click the network icon in the notification area in the same panel and get all sorts of info, all graphical. Or jeeze I can fire up an xterm and use the effin keyboard. Linux distros are not a one-size-fits-all answer where the default presentation is what you're stuck with.
I have an example; the O.E.M. broadcom wi-fi card on my vostro 1500 would exhibit buggy behavior running debian stable with factory firmware and the b43 module. Sometimes the card would just "disappear' from the pci bus. The half-assed workaround/voodoo ritual I came up with was to shutdown the laptop, remove the battery, and hold down the on/off button for a few seconds then plug the battery back in and start it up normally and low and behold the firmware loaded and wi-fi connectivity would be enabled. So yeah, buggy AF. Anecdotal, and because not windows. Don't know, don't care, buggy is as buggy does.
My ultimate solution was a less than five dollar intel wi-fi card. Woo hoo, n is way faster than g. And no more wtf where did the wi-fi card go moments.
Recorded music is at best a close approximation of a live event. It may or may not be massaged/mangled by post production. My opinion is real music is experienced live. There are probably exceptions...Electric Ladyland comes to mind.
I've been watching/listening to Postmodern Jukebox on youtube and the audio is only one component, the presentation is smile inducing. Babymetal's Gimme Chocolate video makes me smile.
The evolution of recorded sound marches on. Good enough is always going to be good enough. Best will always be superseded by the next best.
A typical roofing system on a commercial building begins to fail inside twenty years. It costs a crapton of money to roof/re-roof a building when there are only a few obstacles. Now cover it with retrofitted solar panels; labor intensive at best. Nevermind that the building probably wasn't engineered for the additional weight. Providing that 80% of the required power is going to be very expensive.
yuh, BMWs have a separate "P" button. To go backwards you push the shifter forward, not exactly a logical move but it does conform to the standard PRNDL pattern.
You do understand, don't you, that nVidia has never provided OSS drivers for Linux? Their Linux drivers are nothing more than binary blobs that you can only install by booting into a CLI, then rebooting after the installation is complete. And, you have to do the exact same thing each and every time your kernel is updated. Yes, Fedora uses a simpler system, akmod-nvidia, but that's just a repackaging of the binary blob for those of us who don't want to reboot twice every time there's a new kernel.
All I ever have needed to do is log into a console, kill the xserver, run the installer and restart the xserver. If you need to reboot to install modules for a running kernel you may be doing it wrong. I've been running debian with nvidia drivers for hardware acceleration because I like my compiz eye-candy .
I have done the same with a laptop gentoo install.
Shawshank Redemption == prison
El Camino Christmas == jail
Eventually debian will run out of toy story character names cept fer sid, and then what? Well it prolly won't happen in my lifetime but still...

So maybe the plot of "Real Men" isn't as far-fetched as it appeared back in the eighties?
The world is going to hell in a handbasket and I'm unsure what to put in my carryon bag.
I really thought there was going to be medical blockchains somewhere in the story. Maybe next week...
"was formed by compressing water between two diamonds "
So are fluids compressible or is this just a bad bit of paraphrasing?

Would it take a rocket appliance to use steganography?
Or maybe Ricky's hash coins.
Maybe I read the title wrong; it seems to imply some distant planet's atmosphere is 39 light years away from that planet.
they discovered how to make Ice-9?

Fiberglas shingles still incorporate asphalt as the waterproofing element.
rtorrent and screen.
I saw a visual studio reference in the summary.
Why do the blind need a GUI? Or a monitor for that matter...
Well three things then.

Just seems to me they made a few marginal improvements to debian and colored it orange. I seriously don't get it.
What about Ricky, Bubbles and Julian?
What about Wayne and Darryl from Letterkenny?
Mike Judge got it right.
The purpose of a lock is only to keep honest people honest.

The way she goes...
