Some Junk ppl!

Hi ,

Life is all about meeting new ppl, interacting with them. Few ppl leave a long lasting impression on you .. Positively/Negetively. Few ppl think that u are not so good or u do only wrong things and crib about you.. but few really like u and accpet the things done by you. And later this initial interaction might make you some one as FRIEND. Yes so in some sense when ppl become too close to you and when u like them... a new Friendship starts. 

No matter they are good or bad. you dont know about them in the inital phase and later you will definitly come to know about the person and so u can decide about him. 

In my life i have met lots and lots of ppl and many of them are really nice ppl and they are so nice that they like what i do and what i speak. Also many a times there are ppl who think i am not so good or whatever blah blah.. so they tend to avoid me .. Thats perfectly fine for me :) after all you cant be good for every one or you cant be smart enough to handle all the ppl . you are living for yourself and not for others ..... 

But now to the title of this post. JUNK ppl. Very rarely met few ppl who are so stupid and pathetic when u look into their heart or brain. These are the ppl who lived with u for some time i mean they had some interactions with you in one or the other sense, but still they didnt understood you. But even after that instead of being normal they tend to act like as if they know you and they enact that they are very nice to you ... 

But meanwhile they actually hate you from inside the heart. Which means all the good things they said towards you are just for the SAKE. and infact they dont like you [ but its ok i dont expect ppl to be nice to me everytime] but.... when they dont like you why cant they say directly to you.... they just go and meet other ppl [may be your friends] .. and say all kind of bad things about you.... 

when u actually come to know about that person through other ppl its so cheap .... :| . So today i have come across one such entity of life [ i cant even call that person as PERSON because of so cheap menatlity] . Eventhough i know about this person's menatlity , i just greeted hi how are you and stuf... But that person didnt even bother to reply...   

So why i am thinking so much about that idiotic behaviour..... ??? Even i dont know but somewhere you feel pity for them.. WTH the same person who acted like they know you and stuff... forgot everything and dont have the common sense of replying to your Hi BYE or whatever..... 

Moral : Be Nice to ppl no matter they are good or bad. Try to be humble and try to atleast reply when they try to talk/chat with u... instead of being silent[where u have not gained anything].

UBUNTU 8.04 to 8.10 upgrade problem!!!!

Hi ,

This post dedicated to all the ppl who are facing problems with the latest ubuntu update. I started using UBUNTU from past one month. The version which i downloaded was 8.04. I installed it using a CD . For the first time in my life, all my hardware devices worked for me without any problem. The moment i installed ubuntu, i was like..... Awesome man... ohhhh aaaaaaaaaaah stuff. Sound ,Video, X , Ethernet, Internet everything works. UBUNTU ppl have nailed linux Desktop :).

Now recenltly i tried to upgrade to 8.10 version. Upgrade went smoothly.But once i restarted the machine after upgrade. The user interface Hangs, fortunately my Failsafe Gnome option worked well for me. Through which i was able to browse the net for help. After one hour searching and trying 2-3 alternatives , in one of the forums i found that , During login you need to specifically choose the GNOME option, and this worked for me as well. ( Eventhough your default option was GNOME before upgrade ]

I thought of posting this. By default the option to login will be in Running X Script option . So change it to GNOME and hopefullly if you dont have any other issues, you can easily login and use the latest version of UBUNTU.


---- UBUNTU ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Windows REFRESH syndrome!!!!

Hi ,

Recently i was waiting for one of the movie torrents to finish off. So i was not browsing anything or not even reading anything on my desktop. I suddenly noticed that i was doing something on my desktop, In fact without my notice my right hand used to right-click and press refresh on the desktop. I was surprised, by this action. This is the most common behavior of all [at least most of them] to press refresh menu repeatedly when they dont have anything to do.

According to me, this is a syndrome. Its a general misconception that by pressing refresh menu you can boostup or speedup machine. According to my technical knowledge pressing refresh will refresh the screen or infact it redraws the screen and windows on the desktop. Apart from these things i dont see any connection to refresh the system memory or ram cleanup or something of that sort. But this general misconception has made ppl mad behind this refresh menu. Apart from StatMenu button , probably this refresh menu is the most used menu in windows environment till date i feel ;).

I am just trying to forget that there is a refresh menu on the desktop to come out of this syndrome. Also i am using UBUNTU majorly these days for my day to day activities which eventually prevents me from REFRESH syndrome.

If you also have REFRESH SYNDROME pls share your experiences , comment.
