Submitted by srlinuxx on Wed, 05/22/2013 - 14:07mylinuxrig.com: I have no idea when I started using Clementine. I thought it’s something I picked up from Xubuntu, but going through my notes, I was thinking of Exaile. But at some point, I decided I like Clementine as my music player.

Mageia 3 KDE Review: elegant and fantastic!
Submitted by srlinuxx on Tue, 05/21/2013 - 22:59mylinuxexplore.blogspot: To be honest, I have used quite a few KDE distros in last couple of years but never saw a resource efficient distro like Mageia 2. Under similar conditions, Mageia performed better than almost all the KDE distros I have used. For me, the release of Mageia 3 was one of the most anticipated releases of 2013.

Is It Ever a Good Thing to Use a Nonfree Program?
Submitted by srlinuxx on Tue, 05/21/2013 - 18:57Richard Stallman: If you run a nonfree program on your computer, it denies your freedom; the main one harmed is you. Your usage of it can harm others indirectly, by encouraging development of that nonfree program. If you make a promise not to redistribute the program to others, you do wrong, because breaking such a promise is bad and keeping it is worse. Still, the main direct harm is to you.

Kubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail review - Cushty
Submitted by srlinuxx on Tue, 05/21/2013 - 18:21dedoimedo.com: It is time to test the third sibling in the Ubuntu family, the one named Kubuntu. So far, we've had Ubuntu, which was somewhat bland. Then we also had Xubuntu, which worked like a charm, except for a kernel oops thingie affecting the entire range, a silly thing to coincide with the official release. The KDE version is next.
