linux firsts

i came across the linux timeline in wikipedia and learned that there are three major distros(distributions) where most of them came from.
ubuntu, KNOPPIX and gibraltar are some of the distros that were based from debian. i would say it's a cross between slackware and redhat - and that's based from some of my research. i just dont have time to post details

madriva, fedora and the "philippines distro" bayanihan are based from redhat. a very corporate feel and stable distro if you ask me

slackware, which was the basis of openSuSE and vector, is a hobbyist distro basing from its history. althought, its support and community are as stable.

budgeting 101

to dig deep into envelope budgeting, i must simplify the term first. hence, i need to make sure i understand the word budgeting... budget. A budget (from old French bougette , purse) is a financial plan and a list of all planned expenses and revenues. It is a plan for saving, borrowing and spending -  wikipedia so, basing from the definition, it can be simplified as... (income - expense = 0) where income is defined(in my own words) as any monetary device labeled with currency which was received and/or is available to be consumed by the calculated expenses. while expense is a calculation of how the income will be used. some might ask where saving lies in the formula. since, i believe that it is one of the elements of expenses, let me extend the formula to: [income - (saving +other expenses) = 0] i still have doubts on this calculations, though. so, any comments and suggestions are encouraged for a healthy discussion.

sa taas ng bilihin mapapamura ka habang sinasabi sayo ang presyo ng bibilhin mo...pero hindi ko kayo hinihikayat na magmura...at kung pwede ay pigilan ninyo ang sarili nyo. may napapabalitang naghahanap na raw ng ibang pagkukunan ng langis sa may bandang palawan pero marami ang napapa-iling dito...syempre naman, palawan yun. kumikita ng dolyares galing sa mga dayuhan tapos sisirain mo lang para makakuha ka ng langis. sama naman nu'n. dami naman pwedeng pagkuhanan ng enerhiya, bakit kailangan langis pa? napanood ko kanina 'to: Wind, The World's Fastest Growing Energy Source kung ganito bat hindi natin masubukan para maiba-iba naman...nag mumukha na tayong langis. konting hangin naman. pwede rin namang solar cells. ba't nga ba hindi pinapapasok sa pilipinas 'to. ang balita ko e, pwede daw ipasok kaso tinataasan ang tax para magdalawand isip ang mag i-import. kasabwat ata nila yung big three (shell, caltex, petron) syempre marami silang makukuha dun kaysa magpapasok ng...
