I would think that since you are living in the country if you take a night course (or something equivalent) you could probably learn a lot quicker than someone living outside the country. Immersion helps a lot for languages.

I use my University library similarly, I only wish the public libraries were so accommodating, here you have to reserve meeting rooms and those are only available to you twice a month (for like 2 hour periods). Thankfully the University off

Ubuntu Gnome and sometimes Debian. Mostly because apt and ubuntu are so widely used everything just seems to work. Unity is nice when it works but gnome seems to work more often so that is what I prefer.

I switched from electric to safety razor and found it easy to use, you can use gel or cream that you already use or try to go fancy with the brushes and poraso in a bowl. The main thing is that you don't apply pressure you just let the

Usually smoke detectors are a 1 in each room (and 1 in the main hallway) thing nowadays. And as for the hunt for the low battery it is a problem (though usually only one week a year if you install the same smoke detector in all rooms at the

You shouldn't necessarily be compiling ruby on your server anyways you should be using a package (rpm, deb) to install it. Especially if you are losing $500k because you decided to compile ruby on your production server.

I think they work off of current robots.txt so if you purchase a domain name update the robots.txt to not allow archive.org they delete the entire history. Which sucks in an archival perspective.

I was able to delete my google+ profile without deleting the associated gmail address, but I think they have some small text thing to never show the google+ set up thing again.
