Chatting with multiple people? Why not color code your conversations!

In a Hangout (chat window) type /bikeshed and hit enter.

You can repeat this until you find the desired conversation background color. Note: This is more of an Easter Egg and will not persist after you close the Hangout window.

#2. Install the script: http://goo.gl/QKXal

#3. Refresh G+;  read the gotchas!

I'm not claiming that it's perfect, but it's better than clicking that blue button or pressin L :)

The auto reload will make you lose focus, e.g. on comment box, notification  drop downs, etc.

We've always known that Linux is faster than Windows -- hundreds of supercomputers and God alone knows how many high-frequency stock traders can't be wrong -- but it interesting seeing a MSFT developer admitting to it and explaining why he thinks it's so.

Funny and interesting Linux command line utilities

Working on Linux command line can be fun sometimes. Ubuntu Linux is used for all the examples. Enjoy at your own risk!:

1. Linux "sl" command

From the man page: "sl - display animations aimed to correct users who accidentally enter sl instead of ls."

$ sudo apt-get install sl
$ sl
(see image)

Animated steam locomotive loving across the screen from right to left. One can play a prank on someone by:

$ alias ls=sl

2. Linux "yes" command

From the man page: "yes - output a string repeatedly until killed"

$ yes linux
linux
linux
linux
linux
^C
$

Why would we want a command to keep on printing a string all the life of the process? We can use "yes"... more »

Linux Foundation is helping NASA migrate to Linux

"We migrated key functions from Windows to Linux because we needed an operating system that was stable and reliable – one that would give us in-house control. So if we needed to patch, adjust or adapt, we could.”

#HackForChange  

National Day of Civic Hacking is a national event that will take place June 1-2, 2013, in cities across the USA. The event will bring together citizens, software developers, and entrepreneurs from all over the nation to collaboratively create, build, and invent new solutions using publicly-released data, code and technology to solve challenges relevant to our neighborhoods, our cities, our states and our country. National Day of Civic Hacking will provide citizens an opportunity to do what is most quintessentially American: roll up our sleeves, get involved and work together to improve our society.

A Linux user struggles with Windows. No live CD? No package management? Driver issues? Boot loader madness? While this is a satirical article I can't help but noting that installing Windows becomes more and more exactly what windows people said about installing Linux. And that's quite cool IMHO.
