So, I have a netbook that's still running WinXP, but it's getting a little sluggish.

So, I have a netbook that's still running WinXP, but it's getting a little sluggish. Been thinking about tossing Linux on there to get some more life out of it. I've used Ubuntu before and like it's ease-of-use since I'm not really a programmer. Is there a better distro, though? Asus eePC. I think it has a 1gig single-core processor but I can't think of the other specs off hand.

Via Christina Lihani Originally shared by Juan Gonzalez Huge Favor To Ask The Cool Hunter On FACEBOOK used one of my images and refused to give credit. I went back and forward through emails asking him to remove it or give credit back. He refused to give credit Arguing he found it in Tumblr. I noticed his FB shows mainly images of which no credit is given. I also saw images I've seen here in Google plus. He said he will remove it after I told him I will report him. Do me a favor, go check it out and if you recognize one tell the photographer their images are being used without credit. Thanks

So, I watched this a few years ago and liked it a lot. It's more of a sci-fi psychological thriller than a science-fact movie. A friend of mine watched it and thought it was stupid. Of course, all he did was look at the science and call it crap. Anywho, it's not too bad of a movie. More along the lines of Pandorum than Star Trek . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8BSlqHAhuY

Here's another picture of the canoe Rufus and I found this morning on our walk. The other was loaded to Instagram but this one was run through some generic processing in CreativeKit. What's the term we're using to denote the image was taken with the Android? Androdography? Droidography? Anywho, this was taken with the Camera360 app which I'm finding I like more and more. There's still a few things I like about the CameraMX app, but I think the Camera360 app has a lot more features.

I know it's late but I've been gone camping for the past week and just walked in the door (and then took a shower, then played with my dog, then unpacked and now on G+). I'm meeting with a woman from Barack Obama 's campaign tomorrow morning and I need a list of items Obama should have fought harder against the GOP, shouldn't have given the GOP their way and items his cabinet shouldn't have done at all. This includes, less transparent government, secret courts/trials, the NDAA, government intrusion on privacy rights, etc. Thanks,

Trying to decide if I should walk Rufus and then go to the gym, or go to the gym and then come back and walk Rufus.

Trying to decide if I should walk Rufus and then go to the gym, or go to the gym and then come back and walk Rufus. I'm leaving for Moab, UT in a couple of hours and can't sleep. (I don't know why) so, I figured i'd go to the gym. However, the gym is enroute to my friends's house so there's no point in coming back to walk Rufus. That being said, we're not leaving his house until 6am or so, so I have plenty o f time to go to the gym and come back to walk Rufus. He's not even waking up until 5am. FirstWorldProblems
