Comment on Why is Linux Faster than Windows? by Casonade

I don’t know what to decide but upon installing Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS, I was amazed that it only took maybe 3GB of spaces vs a-much-larger chunk with Windows 7. *sigh*

For game performance, I just love the fact that you can Tab-in/Tab-out of Counter-Strike: Source without a hiccup while on Windows, it took much longer.

As of last week, I decided to erase everything and install Ubuntu only for my laptop. Just love the fact that it runs so clean.

Comment on How to SSH on Ubuntu – A Simple Guide by stasta

You can run graphical applications, if you pass the -X option to ssh.
ssh -X user@host
And graphical results of the programs you run remotelly will be dispayed on your pc.
note:
1) for some servers this -X may be -Y
2) the server may simply refuse this
3) this option will not transfer sound
4) your pc must have the X Window System. i.e. running linux (for mac you should manually install it)
5) it may be a litle slow

# gem update –system
ERROR: gem update –system is disabled on Debian, because it will overwrite the content of the rubygems Debian package, and might break your Debian system in subtle ways. The Debian-supported way to update rubygems is through apt-get, using Debian official repositories.
If you really know what you are doing, you can still update rubygems by setting the REALLY_GEM_UPDATE_SYSTEM environment variable, but please remember that this is completely unsupported by Debian.

Comment on Apple's patent win. The Jury foreman speaks out. What does this mean for Linux? by Power Cords and Cables

I have read a news on some websites that last month Apple had to bear a huge loss as their sales were very less. Perhaps their revenue was $52 million. I don’t remember exactly. But the thing is that people have started to show their interest in Samsung Galaxy and Google Android instead of I.Phone now.

Comment on Using Ubuntu to Crack WEP by PPN

Using that software might end up fking up your wireless card on windows, atleast that’s what happend to me on windows 8. So be careful, i would suggest to use a live cd to do this, eventually use backtrack
