Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

If it's just a tool, it doesnt matter.

So long as what you get out the other end meets the requirements - including standards - tools really don't matter.

That's what's different with Linux. Our shit's opensource. There's no proprietary extensions/file types (unless you want them).

The best part is if you find the back door you can close it

The linux.org site is getting hammered with what appears to be a DDoS attack.

I wonder who we pissed off? There's a bunch of people who like to try spamming the site, and we do a good job stopping them. They're the most likely group to have access to a botnet, so they're my first suspects.

That too.

We don't work with shit like Adobe where you get proprietary output in a .whatever file. So, we don't have to dictate Adobe as the tool.

(The send comment button didn't work. I'm just noticing now.)

Huh... I found a new bug in Lubuntu - but it should be an easy fix.

The thing is, none of the other testers found it and they also test every testing release (a daily image to install/live test).

I do the live testing, meaning I don't install the OS - I check the live version, which is actually longer than the installation test. I have to test every application, which is how I found the new bug. I tested further than normal and discovered the chat/support chat application sent folks to Debian instead of Lubuntu.

Oops!

It's just a config file that needs to be changed.
