I didn't notice any "strong slant," except for the last line, and that's simply the truth.
At which point you have paid for a feature you can't use. I think secure boot could have been done in a way that was open, and not dependent...
I've seen a number of mentions of not being able to disable it on the ARM platform.
Very nice tutorial. Well done!
Yes, exactly. With Gnome 3 it's like they're saying they know what's best for me and they're going to force me to work their way. Canonical is...
I was referring to Mrk's calling it "good ole Synaptic." I always think of Synaptic as being new, because I used Debian for a long time before...
I really get a chuckle out of the review where Mrk said, "good ole Synaptic package manager." Newbies are so cute. :) As for Mint, I tried both...
So Fedora 19 will be Cow Flop.
These guys are all pundits, and they make their living by saying things that are designed to get attention. They live for controversy, so it's no...
It's possible to change the boot up screen, and the associated files are in /lib/plymouth/themes/ However, I haven't tried doing this myself, so...
It uses some of the Linux kernel, but it isn't really a Linux OS. With Windows or Mac OS X, you don't get a choice about whether you get...

Ok, thanks. I got the impression from the pictures in your review that you didn't like the all-grey look of the latest Xubuntu, so I thought you...
Oh. Sorry, I somehow missed that that was your web site. I agree with some of what you said, didn't agree with other parts, and your desktop is...
OTOH comparing Windows to e.g. Ubuntu is comparing apples to oranges, because Ubuntu is really a haphazard collection of software from dozens of...

LED displays like OLED do require sub-pixel hinting, but I don't know if the settings for LCD screens will also work for LED ones or not.
Yes, I should have mentioned that. It's been about 5 years since I've used a CRT monitor anywhere, so I just wasn't thinking of them. :) Even at...
This type of thing is also true for commercial projects. It's just that the main motivation may be the boss tells you to do it, rather than it...
