Прекрасно жить в свободных Штатах
Прекрасно жить в свободных Штатах
При обеспеченных харчах,
При службе, при больших зарплатах,
Автомобилях и домах!
Здесь лишь одно немного грустно:
Язык не тот. Не как в Москве.
Не говорят они по-русски,
Хоть кол теши на голове!
Но к трудностям такого сорта
Любой из нас уже привык.
Мы спикаем по-русски гордо,
Мы кипаем родной язык.
Мы соль не спилаем на раны,
Подругу киссаем взасос,
На службе ранаем программы,
Когда реквестает наш босс.
Мы дринкаем сухие вина,
Энджоем собственный уют,
Мы лихо драйваем машины,
Берем хайвей (когда дают).
Когда окюрится возможность,
Возьмем э фью денечков офф,
Махнем в апстейт по бездорожью,
В лесу напикаем грибов,
Накукаем такой закуски,
Какой не видел целый свет!
Дринкнем как следует, по-русски!
Кисснём жену на склоне лет!
А то - возьмем большой вакейшен,
Допустим, парочку недель,
В Париже, в дистрикте старейшем
Себе забукаем отель.
А там - и Рим не за горами,
Мадрид, Берлин, едрена мать!
Мы будем шопать в Амстердаме!
Мы будем в Праге ланчевать!
При наших, при больших зарплатах
Нам вся Европа - по плечу!
Ах, хорошо в Юнайтед Штатах!
Эх, травеляй, куда хочу!
Аппрочает весенний вечер,
Даркеет - прямо на ходу.
Стихают речи, гаснут свечи,
И Пушкин спинает в гробу…
GoDaddy vs. NoDaddy
Fyodor Vaskovich, the owner of the domain name that GoDaddy shut down for seven hours on January 24, has set up a website that is “exposing the many reasons not to trust GoDaddy with your domain names”. The site is located at NoDaddy.com
Some info NoDaddy:
“Note that SecLists was never hosted by GoDaddy. They were just our registrar, whose job is to maintain a list of the 18 million domains their customers own and the corresponding name servers. They aren’t the web content police and shouldn’t go suspending domains at MySpace’s behest without a court order.
Even after this episode made news worldwide, GoDaddy refused to admit they were wrong. In a News.Com article, GoDaddy general counsel Christine Jones “pointed out that GoDaddy’s terms of service say the company ‘reserves the right to terminate your access to the services at any time, without notice, for any reason whatsoever.”
“The truly frightening aspect is that this isn’t an isolated incident. Many people have posted and emailed similar stories of GoDaddy hijacking their domains without any sort of court order or other due process. Others have paid extra for the so-called “domains by proxy” privacy service, only to have GoDaddy unmask their identity just because someone made a single legal threat (example). Sometimes GoDaddy will suspend a customer’s domains and hold them ransom for up to $200 each before they will reactivate or allow a domain transfer (example1, example2, example3). So maybe I should consider myself lucky that they didn’t didn’t charge me for the privilege of having my domain name wrongly suspended! “

How do I unzip multiple / many files under Linux?
Q. I’ve lots of files in a directory called /disk2/images. All files are zip file format , so I am using following command:
unzip *.zip
Which is result into an error as follows:
caution: filename not matched
How do I unzip multiple / many files under Linux?
A. Linux or UNIX unzip command will list, test, or extract files from a ZIP archive, commonly found on MS-DOS systems.
When you want to unzip file using wild card, you have two options as follows.
Option # 1 : unzip multiple files using single quote (short version)
Type the command as follows:
$ unzip ‘*.zip’
Note that *.zip word is put in between two single quote, so that shell will not recognize it as a wild card character.
Option # 2 : unzip multiple files using shell for loop (long version)
You can also use for loop as follows:
$ for z in *.zip; do unzip $z; done
How to Audacious and Russian characters encoding
Many of us had a problem with Russian characters encoding in Audacious. By default Audacious does not support Russian characters encoding, and here is the way how to fix it!.
1. you need to remove a Audacious and Plugins.
$sudo apt-get remove audacious audacious-plugins
2. We need to Denis Konstantinov repo.
$sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
and add the following lines at the end
deb ftp://80.86.249.14/feisty feisty extra
deb-src ftp://80.86.249.14/feisty feisty extra
then save and exit from nano editor.
3. Then we need to add a key.
$ gpg –keyserver subkeys.pgp.net –recv BC91F270
$ gpg –export –armor BC91F270 | sudo apt-key add -
4. And now you need to update a apt-get by running the following command.
$sudo apt-get update
5. Finnaly you have to install Audacious.
$sudo apt-get install audacious audacious-plugins
Now your Audacious is supported Russian characters.
Howto install Nvidia 8600GT
I got myself a new PC with a Nvidia 8600GT graphics and since this card is not yet supported with the Ubuntu restricted drivers I wasn’t sure how to get it working. One option is to use a little program called ENVY (which some people don’t like as they say it can do nasty things to your system if things go wrong, I don’t know, I chose not to use it). The other option is to install the latest nvidia driver manually. This guide will tell you how to do that (it should work for all new 8 series nvidia cards that are not supported by the restricted drivers manager).
I’m not an expert… This is how I got my Nvidia 8600GT working on my new installation of Ubuntu Feisty on my PC.
How to get Nvidia 8600GT working in Ubuntu Feisty
1. Download driver
Download the latest driver from nvidia and place it on your Desktop
2. Install and remove required packages
Open terminal and paste:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential gcc gcc-3.4 xserver-xorg-dev sudo apt-get –purge remove nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-common linux-restricted-modules*
sudo rm /etc/init.d/nvidia-* We had to remove everything related to nvidia that comes with default ubuntu/restricted drivers manager. A lot of people don’t do this and X will crash.
3. Backup your xorg.conf
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup
4. Run the installation script/driver
Press CTRL+ALT+F6 and log into your ubuntu account
and paste the following:
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
cd Desktop
sudo sh NV (PRESS TAB TO GET THE REST)
and go through the installation. Once complete:
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
CTR+ALT+F7 to get back to GUI
Now you should have a working nvidia driver with direct rendering. If you run this in terminal:
glxinfo | grep “direct rendering”
It should say Direct rendering: Yes
5. Set up your screen preferences
Run the nvidia config to set up your resolution
sudo nvidia-xconfig
After you adjust your settings in nvidia-xconfig - don’t forget to apply changes to xorg.conf, otherwise your screen settings will be lost once you restart your PC.
6. Adjust your xorg.conf (if required)
One more thing I had to do to get Compiz fusion (or Beryl) working was to open xorg.conf
gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
And change:
Section “Extensions”
Option “Composite” “Disable”
EndSection
to this:
Section “Extensions”
Option “Composite” “Enable”
EndSection
That sould give you all the Compiz (or Beryl) beauty.
Don’t forget you will have to reinstall your driver every time there is a kernel update or when you update to a new version of ubuntu. I expect that this card will be supported in Ubuntu Gutsy and we will be able to install the driver through the restricted drivers manager.
