Ubuntu Lunacy
We’re all pretty familiar with the how popular Ubuntu has become since it first started, but believe it or not there are actually still some people out there who choose to instead bash it because their distro flat out sucks. I’m not going to go into any of the names of the distro’s, like Red Hat(just kidding
), that suck.
Secret Thai Spiciness
Yesterday, me and two of my friends went to a Thai restaurant because one of my friends who is a waitress there had been bugging for me to go for a very long time. I had been to that restaurant a long time ago before I knew her, but not since I had met her at school(college). I had lived quite a long ways away before but now I’m close and within range, and have been for the past 6 months or so but haven’t had a chance to stop by.
Retro Video Game Backup Units

It just happened to be sitting there and I happened to want to beat something but as I got further into the game, I began to notice something: “This game just doesn’t compare.” That’s the phrase that kept coming up in my head. Sure, the action was great and the story line wasn’t so bad either, but it just doesn’t compare.
Bottled Water Safety – Germies!
There was a group discussion being held at my work, all gathered around a couple of cubes, and we were talking about bottled water. At least two, maybe more, mentioned that they actually reuse bottles. If you don’t know what I mean, let me explain a little bit more. When you go to the store and buy water that is bottled, which is meant to be thrown away after its use, it is sometimes reused by certain individuals who then just fill the bottle back up again with either water again(from the sink, etc) or another beverage.
