I am currently experimenting with PCLinuxOS. I have never used any other OS besides Windows but am curious to expand my PC knowledge and keep some open ption in case of future OS issues.<br/><br/>Now, I have heard many times before how a Linux server is much better than a Windows server when it comes to have a home network.

Our horrible soldiers killed innocent Iraqis without a care while the insurgents were seen as the victims and heroes by our own Media. The reality is that our soldiers have literally been fighting with their hands tied behind their backs trying to identify the insurgents from ...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://charles.joeuser.com/article/320697</guid><link>http://charles.joeuser.com/article/320697</link><pubDate>Wed, 20 Aug 2008 09:17:27 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-08-20T13:17:27</pubDateParsed><title>And they say the US army is inhumane?</title></item><item><author>CharlesCS</author><comments>http://charles.joeuser.com/article/320497</comments><description><![CDATA[I find it so ironic how often the one thing we refuse to do for fear of the backlashes one will get tend to have opposite results.<br/><br/>I never figured my wife would stumble upon the article I wrote (Back to the beginning of a possible unhappy ending) about how we met and our 11 years together after that.

From the comments it seems to be and still with much steam behind it. But who are the ones keeping this idea alive? The answer would have been simple had those who were racist were the only ones being racist. But the answer is more complicated than that. You see, not only those who are racist spread this terrible concept, but those who are the ones being insulted by this racism also become racist when they...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://charles.joeuser.com/article/319102</guid><link>http://charles.joeuser.com/article/319102</link><pubDate>Wed, 20 Aug 2008 09:17:27 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-08-20T13:17:27</pubDateParsed><title>If racism is still alive, who are the ones keeping it alive?</title></item><item><author>CharlesCS</author><comments>http://charles.joeuser.com/article/318975</comments><description><![CDATA[Well, the day finally came. We are now in our new apartment.

Sometimes, like in The Lord of The Rings Trilogy, the need for detail forces movie makers to extend movies to, at times, 3 hours just so as to not leave anything out that they believe is useful to making the movie more successful.<br/><br/>A few decades ago, details were not that important.
