What is so special about Ubuntu distribution of Linux? Unity is a flat out joke with the sidebar and the lack of window freedom, it makes me feel claustrophobic when I'm trying to get work done; simple tasks like libreoffice dual window calc for my computer science. If such a simple task can cause annoyance when I'm trying to get simple things done, I don't even want to try and configure any tools that are a notch more complex in comparison. Yeah, can I just work all of Unity through terminal so I don't have to deal with windows and that damn sidebar? Thanks.
I need to decide on a powerful, awe inspiring, extremely intellectual book to read for the week I have before I start summer. I know I should probably buy a trig book to read to get me prepared for a summer class of it so I can keep up, but will it do anything but make me anxious after seeing the massive scope of the subject without any fundamental basis as to where the course's direction will actually be? I feel that it won't be as helpful as it sounds on paper. I'm looking at the cover of Noam Chomsky's Essentials and I can't finish the other half of it when I started last year... politics is now such a bore to me. It's been like that for a little while now; I still vote on all local and presidential and I research even all the local options so as to not strictly go by party (it's actually optional for candidates to state their party affiliation because California thinks it will make it a more bipartisan voting which I would have to agree with. Makes people actually dig for information about what their action entails, instead of just blindly going by party because that's what they have been raised as, like complete ignorant rats they are... apologies for my own digression to myself). On reflecting, it might have something to do with how the subject can't be placed into a neat little box I guess. It's either all abstract and you have nothing to truly connect it to for reality, but if you are neck deep in it, you can't really dilute true, valid statements for politics. A girl in my English class is Political Science major and when I asked her why, she responded with a shrug of her shoulders and laughingly stated, "I don't know, actually". Maybe that's the most proper way of going into that subject, no biases whatsoever. You're shaped from clay that is anew.
With Noam Chomsky aside, let's stick with something conventional, perhaps? ...Albert Camus' The Rebel, now that is a book I haven't read for a long while. I absolutely get soaked in absurdism... how I love it. Where was I when I first read that? Odd place of mind where I had poison on my tongue and ready to lash out at anyone. Hanging out in Folsom for too long while reading would make me hate everything and all the superficiality.
The book is about a conversation in a bar between two men, the exchange is one sided with his words letting you imagine what the other source is asking of him or saying. He reminisces on memories and starts to piece together everything. The piecing together and the climax is actually of him realizing that there isn't some ultimate meaning to all these events that he's contemplating, but it's all absurd and lacking any objective, grand meaning to it all. Albert Camus won the Nobel Prize in Literature for his work The Plague. Profoundly epic book because it's simplicity blended with great characterization of the doctor during the plague. Albert Camus was one of the first authors to introduce Absurdism as a philosophy and how hilarious was that he died in a car accident with his nearly finished master work in his car. He solidified absurdism in his death.
Finals-- One day countdown.
Why am I never satisfied with the multiplicity of lines? A & B. A & C. So on.
