Bitcoin, the online currency, P2P money, which was first introduced in the year 2009, and the idea behind it was to introduce a currency, unniversal, for e-commerce, perhaps the first of it’s kind. Users create account and get _wallets, _where they store their money, and some form of these wallets can also be downloaded to your computer and mobile devices.

On the first of December, 2013, the site was attacked by a group of hackers that did manage to get their hands on a whole lot of money.

Came across the term for the first time when I was checking out stuff on the play Store. It’s another project by Google, which in itself is naught but like a USB flash drive, but there’s more to it.
The Chromecast enables you to enjoy media content on your HDTV. Means if for example you come across a YouTube Video, while checking out your Facebook feeds, all you have to do is look for and press the chromecast button. It would prompt you with a list of available devices, selecting any of which would play the content on whatever device you chose. To do so, what you are gonna need is true chromecast USB device of course which has to be plugged into the TV.

Here, a link to the official video:

Here Take a Look, Guy’s a genius.

99% of the posts in our news-feed seem so say naught but stuff like “RIP Paul Walker.” Walker, an actor best known for his role as Connor O’Brien, in the Fast and the Furious movie series, died yesterday in a car crash.
Someone, no idea who, created this page on Facebook, with the name RIP Paul Walker, that has about 1.5m likes right now, and from the look of it.. it does look a day old..  Guy did seriously have quite some fan base..

Tofu, @tofu_product, is a Twitter account, that seems to have a thing for confusing tweets, and following General public.
Actually, it is supposed to be a bot. The moment you follow him, he’d follow you back, and he’d go through your tweets, make something out of them, and tweet it to you.. sounds stupid eh? But that’s more or less like what happens. A Tofu tweet normally doesnt make much sense.
Do give it a try, find him on Twitter and follow him. He’d follow you back instantly. Wait for another few minutes and he is bound to tweet something to you..

I used to think the Lubuntu was capable of running on any machine available, until I read on some blog a post where a guy was hoping to find a nice damn-light distro for his Toshiba Satellite 300CDT, that had only 4GB storage and 48mb of RAM..
Well, guy could do with slax, as the minimum memory requirements for the 32bit version inn text mode happen to be exactly 48mb…

The Singapore ministry of defense actually asked the M1 operator for camera-free iPhone devices.

Reason: This allowed the “military” to use the smartphone in areas where cameras are strictly forbidden in those areas for security reasons..

Two days back, I out of curiosity, fired up a terminal and typed in startx, with the hope that the UI would be reduced to naught but the _original form _of the X. At first it displayed an error, saying that i’m not permitted to. But then I tried again, and this time with a ‘sudo.’ The moment I _entered _my password, the screen went all dark, but only for a second, after which I was left with naught but a blank desktop, free from menus. Sensing failure, I opened another terminal and wrote ‘unity.’ Something similar happened, but this time, the title bar of the terminal kinda got stuck to the top of the screen. I tried the same command again, and this time, I was brought back to where i started. The terminal in which i had typed the startx command was still there, however i failed to notice that the user logged into it wasn’t my primary user account but root. I didn’t really notice anything unusual, except that the _settings _dropdown, present in the top-right, in the gnome bar, wasn’t showing up the options it ought to, so I restarted the computer by simply pressing the power button.

After the reboot, whenever I’d attempt a login, I’d be greeted by a dark screen, and after like a fraction of second, I’d be back on the Login Page. But the guest account seemed to work fine, so I logged into it and created another Administrator account, and on that one, I tried recreating the problem and was successful. _Okay, _now we might get somewhere…

Now what I did, that fixed the problem, was this:
I logged into the account, i.e the first one where i screwed everything up, via the tty1 terminal (Ctrl + Alt + F1), and ran the following commands:

sudo rm /home/anas/.Xauthority*
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xorg --fix-missing

The first one deletes the file, while the second re-installs Xorg. After this, I was able to login to the account again.
