Why FTP sucks

First of all I want to make clear that I always liked FTP. And I still prefer it over uploading my files through a web-interface, but I now have found quite a big reason why FTP really really sucks. And here it is: FTP has clearly not been designed to upload 7000 files. Right now […]

ACLs: Extended file-permissions

Warning: WP_Syntax::substituteToken(): Argument #1 ($match) must be passed by reference, value given in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-syntax/wp-syntax.php on line 383

In Windows they are used for a long time already, but most Linux-users probably don’t even know that their system supports them too. Access Control Lists (ACLs) extend the regular permissions we all know with the possibility to give permissions for specific users/groups. With a little example I want to show how to use ACLs […]

I’m not anti-mono anymore.

I’ve advocated many things not so long ago which I no longer do or in fact advocate the opposite. It’s just a matter of learning from new arguments and evidence as it’s presented to me over the course of time. One of the things I used to oppose was Mono, a Free Software implementation of […]

Why I chose Ubuntu after trying Windows 7

A couple of years ago I would probably easily dismiss the idea of trying out a new version of Windows on the basis of a Free Software ideology or the chorus of voices of Free Software or Open Source fans saying how it just sucks and I better not bother. But things have changed and […]

Linux is not an OS

One way that it could be claimed that Linux is not an operating system is by asserting that what we call “Linux” is in fact a name of the kernel, a core of the operating system, rather than an OS as a whole. Such assertions would usually come from the Free Software supporters who would […]
