She's giving the signal to be quiet, but it would be more effective if the finger were a little lower, and away from her nostril! :p

Hmm.. lovely desktop you got there. :D

I wish I could install Ubuntu Hoary so that I can use all the cool transparecy and shadows.

But I had to re-install it when I tried once and messed up everything. :(

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      256 times the quality of an audio cd? I think audio cd's sound good so even twice as good as that would be something.

    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot

      By MrElectrifyer · Posted

      The original word arts were far more awesome! With their own preconfigured fill patterns, 3D layout, etc, with options to fine-tune their size and colors as desired. I especially loved the ones circled below and still miss them from my primary school years: I frankly use them less these days 'cause the new one isn't as straightforward fine art as what we originally had, taking time and effort to get back to the same graphics quality as the original offered, which I simply don't have enough of for merely fine-tuning my presentation titles. Same with the built-in picarts selection. Bring back the original pre-configured options for word art then I'll be using them far more frequently in my presentations even today.
    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      What didn't you understand about that was mainly referring to Google, Microsoft, etc. keeping your passwords. Password Management is a key service of Bitwarden and it's not going anywhere. In any case they do offer export to other Password management services, backup/download of passwords, and the already mentioned on-prem option. I don't agree with the OP to use the free option as it's better to be an actual customer IMO. They don't just don't delete accounts like the big tech companies with no recourse which was the main concern of this article. I was confused if the author was trying to sell this setup? It should be obvious to anyone reading this article this solution is overly complicated and overkill for most users.
