…drop the cloak which has hidden them and stand forth in naked and simple beauty.
One of my favourite new blogs, VentureCake, has an excellent explanation of how Linux loads drivers.
From the article:
“Ever wondered how Linux loads the right driver for your network card,
video card, wireless, sound card, or modem? The process is surprisingly
simple, but has never been explained as clearly as the guide below, or
by people as ruggedly handsome and rawly sexual as us. Grrr.”
It is clear and easy for anyone to understand, as I have found all their posts to be. A recommended blog in general:) However, I can’t comment on the claims of the looks or sexual power of the authors. I will only say that *I* personally find such discussions of the workings of Linux very attractive[1], and leave it at that.
[1]What?
No, I *really* do.
Yes, seriously.
Get over it:)

…ad astra.
Per adua ad astra is Latin for ‘Through adversity to the stars; to immortality’.
This week Is Rememberance week at NASA, to remember the crews who have given their lives, the ultimate sacrifice, to further our voyages to the stars.
So, remember these heroes -
- The crew of Apollo 1, January 27th, 1967 : Virgil I. “Gus” Grissom, Ed White and Roger B. Chaffee
- The crew of Challenger, January 28th, 1986 : Michael J. Smith, Dick Scobee, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Christa McAuliffe, Gregory Jarvis, and Judith Resnik
- The crew of Columbia, February 1st, 2003 : Rick D. Husband, William C. McCool, Michael P. Anderson, Ilan Ramon, Kalpana Chawla, David M. Brown, Laurel Clark
And honour their memory by supporting their dreams, their quest for humanity to journey ever further outwards. To the stars. Ad astra.
Thanks to Damaris, who is blogging how she is Becoming an Astronaut (and one day, I look forward to reading her while she blogs from somewhere in space:) ).
