I’ve recompiled the Amarok/Xine nonfree packages from Livna to allow for installation after the Fedora key change, basically if you see this error:

xine-lib-extras-nonfree-1.1.12-1.lvn8.x86_64 from livna has depsolving problems
–> Missing Dependency: xine-lib(plugin-abi) = 1.21 is needed by package xine-lib-extras-nonfree-1.1.12-1.lvn8.x86_64 (livna)
Error: Missing Dependency: xine-lib(plugin-abi) = 1.21 is needed by package xine-lib-extras-nonfree-1.1.12-1.lvn8.x86_64 (livna)

That’s what these fix 🙂

2008 MTV VMAs

Now normally I don’t eat this crap up but, I did get pulled in to watch to see if Britney Spears would surprise people, and boy did she. The VMAs themselves were complete crap, no one knew their cue, no teleprompter worked. It was amusing to watch these celebs fumble around, especially Jamie Fox’s “Now? Ready?” comment when they came back from commercial.

Microsoft Mojave Experiment Website

I find this amusing, so I had to write about.

I’ve been watching TV and I keep seeing this *stupid* windows commercial tricking people into thinking there is a new Windows called ‘Mojave’ but it’s really Vista.  Then it says go to mojaveexperiment.com to “see what they saw” however you can’t use anything but Internet Exploder to view that site (so that rules out pretty much all Mac customers aka Microsoft’s real competition (other than Windows XP users)).

Then if you just so happen to have Internet Explorer installed you are asked to install Silverlight prior to viewint the site, and if you go to install Silverlight it recommends windows Vista.

So I ask you Microsoft; why are you running a advertising campaign for Windows Vista but one should preferrably have Vista installed to even view said advertisement??!!  I mean viewers without internet explorer can’t even view your advertisement… what good is a advertisement if your target market CAN’T EVEN VIEW IT!!

Asinine.
