Mandrake Linux 8.2 was released a few days ago, and I must say it is quite nice. I installed it last night, and after some initial problems with sound and X, I got it working just right. It's amazing how easy the install is nowdays, and all the new programs that make using Linux so much easier than when I started 3 years ago. Check it out for yourself.

Some photo's were recently released of Russia's attempts to get to the moon. They had their hopes pinned on some HUGE rockets, but in every test they ran, they failed in catastrophic explosions. Would have been interesting though if the Russian's had been able to reach the moon. Maybe by now we'd be on Mars.

Ain't It Cool News says that they got a sneak preview of Star Wars Episode 2, and they loved it. I'm not sure whether to believe them or not, but they are semi-trusted on the net. But even if it is false, I'm still gonna see the movie of course.
