  1. Rather thuggish, but still good advice.
  2. "There’s no DRM field in the product listing, but it turns out there’s an easy way to tell: just check under product details whether the title has device usage set to unlimited. If so, there’s no DRM."

  5. I swear I remember this diagram from the GNU Arch days.

  14. Some nice GNU/Linux-based ways to secure erase SSD and other disks.
  15. Lots of good advice on how to manage your R project.
  16. Also involves a tutorial on setting up notmuch. I think this might be the best way to go. Interesting.
  17. Zotero + OpenOffice.org integration is apparently just broken in Lucid due to some changes in the move away from Sun Java to OpenJDK. This page offers a couple explanations of how to fix this.
  18. Design community for surfboards. Awesome.
