    You own't be disappointed. It's extremely pleasant to use (and fast).

    Have you tried Mint instead of Ubuntu? It's like Ubuntu's hot, skinnier, younger sister.

    Is there any reason you'd use Ubuntu over an Ubuntu-like distro such as Linux Mint? I'm just curious, because I feel like not many people know about Mint here, and the general feel…

    I use CentOS 6.x almost exclusively, since I work with several different low-end VPS for my businesses. I found it's much, much easier to have adopted a sort of "let it fail" philo…

    I'm actually a bit surprised to see Mint with so few users here. I expected Ubuntu to have less of a grip on the HN community than, say, Reddit or something. There's definitely a l…

    Hear, hear! I can (and do) run Crunchbang on tiny embedded devices all the way up through those netbooks. For all of those smaller (capability) devices, you really can't go wrong w…

    In the interests of Science and defense of this method, I did in fact meet my first wife this way. The problem was that I was simply never around (war, you know), not necessarily t…

    Yes, that's exactly it! Some letters are not there (actually most letters), and I know that some numbers are "weaker" than others. I also know that some of these color synesthetics…

    Yes, I know Swedish and German, and this is the case for those words, as well. The "input" is irrelevant as long as it ends up with my thinking of the concept of "Friday" or whatev…

    Yes certainly, synesthesia has many different forms. From what I understand -- and I could be completely off, but this is just information I've tried to collect since I finally had…

    This is an interesting observation. I've been writing code for about twenty years, and using some form of syntax highlighting for a little over ten of those years. I change the col…

    I have synesthesia in real life. For me, I have one of the "most common" forms, between words and colors. Specifically, I have a color-word synesthesia ("association" is not the ri…

    Because there's so much technical information about this project on the campaign page... There's just no way you are probably throwing your money into a hole by backing it.

    Okay. Yet another hardware Kickstarter with egregious claims? No, thanks.
