After all, most of us hate to be ignored.

First look at Evolve OS with Budgie Desktop

http://www.geekyharsha.in/2014/07/first-look-at-evolve-os-with-budgie.html

Evolve OS is a new desktop Linux distribution which includes the Budgie Desktop. The project has just started making its first public releases and is currently in the Alpha stage, so don’t expect everything to be working flawlessly. It is also worth noting that Evolve OS only supports 64-bit processors (x86_64 or amd64) and that there are no current plans to release a 32 bit version. This means you need a PC with at least an Intel Core 2 or Athlon 64 processor. Most modern processors from Intel and AMD are 64-bit.

MTE Answers: Why Is Fiber Optic Internet Faster Than Copper?

Since its introduction, fiber optic Internet has been lauded as an innovation that would push broadband speeds forward significantly. Years later, we find this prophecy fulfilled, with Internet connections equaling 100 Mbps in downstream speeds, many of them reaching speeds much higher than that (i.e. 1-10 Gbps)

Three Things You Should Know About Windows 9

http://www.geekyharsha.in/2014/07/three-things-you-should-know-about.htmlIt’s that time again. Microsoft has decided to place its bets elsewhere after the bet that mobile-desktop fusions would actually pan out in the end.

Sometime in 2015, Microsoft will be releasing Windows 9, and we’ve got a little bit of the scoop regarding what it will look like and how it will work. It’s time to put aside whatever we may feel about Windows 8 and see what Windows 9 might have to offer.

What is Outernet? How does it work?

 What Problem is Outernet Solving? Global Information Inequality  There are more computing devices in the world than people, yet, according to the World Bank, less than 40% of the global population has access to the wealth of knowledge found on the Internet. The price of smartphones and tablets is dropping year after year, but the price of data in many parts of the world continues to be unaffordable for the majority of global citizens. In some places, such as rural areas and remote regions, cell towers and Internet cables simply don't exist. Censorship of Ideas  Access to knowledge and information is a human right and Outernet will guarantee this right by taking a practical approach to information delivery. Because Outernet is a one-way broadcast, end users enjoy anonymity of consumption. Everyone votes what Outernet broadcasts and everyone can enjoy that broadcast privately. Like turning on a radio, but instead of music you receive an endless library. Knowledge is no longer subject to the political whims of a few. Igniting Humanity’s Next Quantum Leap  Imagine 4-billion additional participants in the global marketplace of ideas. Imagine the avalanche of creativity, innovation, and invention. Imagine universal access to information, regardless of income, infrastructure, or geography.  Outernet can make all that happen tomorrow.  You can make Outernet happen today.
