Anti-Flag just released their last album “For Blood And Empire“.
It is a well varied collection of songs: punk, tinted with some ska and even some country music sounding and the content is more anti-Bush, anti-genocide, anti-everything than ever before!
The booklet features aside of the classical lyrics, a lots of essays, a letter from a survivor of Rwanda’s genocide, … and the central page lists a dozen reasons for which Bush should be immediately impeached!
CD Release: Anti-Flag
Install Party
I was getting sick of Ubuntu running on my laptop. Don’t get me wrong: Ubuntu is a terrible distribution, very easy to install and to use, and integrating everything you need without big troubles. It’s a great replacement of choice for Window$.
So, why am I getting sick of it? It’s just that it is too complete. It installs by default a lot of stuff I don’t need, and never will. I am was using it on my laptop: a Acer TravelMate 800, Centrino 1.3GHz, 512Mb RAM, 40Gb HD, … I used to run Gentoo on it in the past, until the on-board ATI video card has loosely abandonned me.
When I got it back from repair, I put Ubuntu on it: everything worked out of the box. But it was so slooooow. Maybe I’m used to the speed of my new AMD64 Desktop, but I still remember the laptop was running faster and smoother under Gentoo.
So I decided to give Debian a (short) try… The installation is easy, menu driven, and short. But then begins the struggle to have all the packages I need (Xorg, Firefox 1.5, ipw2100, …). I was surprised to find only Firefox version 1.0.4 in the stable branch. I thought there was some security hole in it…
Nevermind… I leave debian on a small partition of my drive, maybe for further use, but I’m currently downloading Gentoo 2006.0 to give my laptop a second breath!!!
See you soon for feedback about the last release…

From now, you can choose the theme you wish to use for my webpage. Currently there is only two theme, the light one (default) and the dark one (still undergoing some adaptations…). Your choice will be stored in a cookie for next visits. Please be kind to report any problems concerning those themes.
I know before hand that there will be some (minor) problems under Internet Explorer. That’s one of the reason I put the little orange banner you can see in the corner of your screen. Simply to recommend the use of a “standard respecting” browser like Firefox, Safari (only for Mac’s), Opera, …but surely not IE!!!
For the little story, this banner was created by Paul Armstrong, but he has to abandon the movement due to Micro$oft pression (check the link). Those suckers don’t have any humor….nor working browsers!
