By George Carlin,
“We’re so self-important. So arrogant. Everybody’s going to save something now. Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save the snails. And the supreme arrogance? Save the planet! Are these people kidding? Save the planet? We don’t even know how to take care of ourselves; we haven’t learned how to care for one another. We’re gonna save the fuckin’ planet? . . . And, by the way, there’s nothing wrong with the planet in the first place. The planet is fine. The people are fucked! Compared with the people, the planet is doin’ great. It’s been here over four billion years . . . The planet isn’t goin’ anywhere, folks. We are! We’re goin’ away. Pack your shit, we’re goin’ away. And we won’t leave much of a trace. Thank God for that. Nothing left. Maybe a little Styrofoam. The planet will be here, and we’ll be gone. Another failed mutation; another closed-end biological mistake.”

Nautilus “Open with” option and Mplayer don’t seem to behave correctly when the file we want to open contains spaces. The dirty hack to solve it is:
su
vi /usr/share/applications/mplayer.desktop
And replace “Exec=gmplayer %U” with “Exec=gmplayer %F”

I just installed firefox3 beta and I realized that the little icon in upper right corner of the application (the titlebar) had just disappeared leaving a pretty sad spot in my eyesight.
After symlinking a hundred of different images in $FIREFOX_DIR and /usr/share/pixmaps I finally discovered the right one:
cd /opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-3.0/
mkdir -p chrome/icons/default/
cp icons/default.xpm chrome/icons/default/default.xpm
If the same problem happens while you’re using the normal Firefox just change /opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-3.0 into /usr/lib/firefox

Today I was returning home from university and I saw an old lady while she was wiping his little dog ass.
Who is the pet now?
