So, I was in the mood to geek, and I've got a spare box sitting around, so I decided to give the latest version of OpenSuse a try since I've heard good things. After getting it up and running, I'm already of the opinion that I'd rather run Fedora. And I don't particularly like Fedora. I'm admittedly using an 800Mhz processor, but it still seems slow compared with Ubuntu. And doing anything in it requires me to jump through ten times as many hoops. Just to add community repositories I've had to check "trust and import key" almost a dozen times already. And here's another one...

I'm going to play around with it for a bit more, but I think by the end of an hour or two I'm probably going to blow it out and put ubuntu back on this machine and hope the box doesn't hold this experience against me.

First off, yeah OpenSuse is toast. Back to Ubuntu.

Secondly, this debate on ER is driving me crazy. I refuse to contribute any more to it there because I feel like it's just fanning the flames. But seriously, two people who consider themselves elves have both stated that something cannot be both unreal and true. Err, hello, myth and allegory and metaphor and parables and dream and such are all calling and they'd like to have a word with you on that one...
