Haven't spend tens of thousands, but I have a similar experience. I use pairnic.com for registration and dns. I don't know if their customer service is good or bad because I've never needed it, but I suspect it's excellent. I use fastmail.f

And ... I realized/remembered while reading the other comments that knowing what's available is a necessary part of "just use the command line a lot." So try this, to get a good list of what's available (and for more command line compositio

Me too, that's all there was. And that may be the answer: only allow yourself the command line for longer and longer periods of time. Force yourself to learn it. I really like this book, even today: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/97805960

Bring a few thumb drives for backup. In addition to LPTHW and dbond's very complete suggestions: $ sudo apt-get install python-doc This is not installed by default. It will install the entire python.org documentation site, probably at /usr/

I have no doubt that mission statements are real at some companies, and that they influence results in a positive way. After making my comment, I made a short search, and posted this: Sex, Lies and Mission Statements. http://news.ycombinat

There are 14,000 TSA screeners at Newark Airport alone. (It's in the text in the image of the patdown.)

That's so cute. As if anyone at the C level believes in a company's mission statement and values. They're just there so the coffee cups aren't plain white.

Linode, nginx, uwsgi, django, postgresql. It's for a vanity site that no one reads, and one thing I like is that the whole stack hardly uses any resources when nothing's happening. I do site admin with key based ssh/scp and nothing else. Th

Linux Mint: it's an Ubuntu derivative, and I suspect that Ubuntu/Canonical will one day either be hostile or at least actively unhelpful to derivatives. Downloads: http://www.linuxmint.com/oldreleases.php Everything there is an ubuntu der

Ubuntu used to be one thing, and it was exactly what I wanted. Now they're something else, and that's OK, but it's not what I want, and that's OK too. At the moment I'm hanging on to the parts I want by my fingernails, running the nicely mi

This is like the "good old days" of TV and movies, when you could only watch the Wizard of Oz once a year at Halloween, and you couldn't watch any old movies at all unless they came on the Late Show or showed at a local art theater. I don't

"Add "set -o vi" in your ~/.bashrc to make use the vi keybindings instead of the Emacs ones." Better to do this kind of thing in .inputrc, as: set editing-mode vi (or set editing-mode emacs) because any application that uses readline gets

What he says sounds kind of reasonable. But then when I see the side by sides that have been posted here, even the things that have been taken down, I get a big "fuck off" stuck in my throat. Similar is not copy. Unless you want the same en

I think he's right, for desktops that try to do a lot, or for people who expect their desktops to do a lot. Gnome and Unity and KDE try to do too much, if you want what they're trying to do you might think of Windows or Mac and ssh to a VM

Old people care. Because, as you point out, we really need it. How many old people are stuck in a job because of health insurance. There's a lot of old people.

But in both cases one can choose to let it be known or not. You can choose to share that you smoke or not, and you can choose to share that you're gay or not. It's that choice to share information or not that I'm talking about.

You may not know many people who regularly smoke pot because you "find it cripples productivity and turns me into a zombie. I stay away from it." You may be seen by users as either hostile, or at least not obviously friendly to their acti

I got a reset message from Evernote, and I didn't even remember that I had an account. I must have tried it for my typical 30 seconds to conclude "meh" and moved on, then forgot it. I'm still not 100% sure what they do beyond ... note takin

Depending on what you do with your machine(s), it might make sense for you to go with whatever versions come with the vast majority of the packages, but for the few that matter to you, manage them yourself. For example, I use Oracle's Virtu
