    Do you use Linux? Which distribution (s)?

    Ubuntu. I have dual boot but for a couple of years I mainly just use Linux - 99% of the time.
    I used to use Debian, which I liked very much. But with the fast changes in technology Ubuntu was upgrading faster so I decided to switch once they started using Unity as default.
    I used Debian mainly for the university and Windows at home. After I switched to Ubuntu it's been months since I used Windows.

    What about you James Nelson?

    Me too, I like Debian and Arch, but Ubuntu is stable, fast and updated frequently. It also supports almost all hardware or of the box. I do have to tweak the ui. Been in love with compiz 3d desktop since the beginning.

    Um, shouldn't that be Choosing a POSIXy distro?
    There are a lot of other kernels listed.
    Still, I got Fedora, which I do use, and I can see why that is next to RHEL and sort of why it is near Solaris.

    I still occasionally use my last Mandrake bootable cd.  Something about the way the permissions are structured in that build of KDE has allowed me to access disks on damaged or password bereft computers and, uh, recover data. 

    I am amazed at the confused folk who still claim that *nix is only for "hobbyists".  Ignoring the fact that the entire internet runs on *nix.  Ignoring the fact that underneath all of the annoying garbage, Mac is *nix.  Ignoring the fact that a lot of us have used it professionally for two decades or so.  I guess they just hate the idea that they have wasted so much money.

Originally shared by Corina Marinescu The theory of multiple intelligences is a theory of intelligence that differentiates it into specific (primarily sensory) 'modalities', rather than seeing intelligence as dominated by a single general ability. This model was proposed by Howard Gardner in his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. In the heyday of the psychometric and behaviorist eras, it was generally believed that intelligence was a single entity that was inherited; and that human beings – initially a blank slate – could be trained to learn anything, provided that it was presented in an appropriate way. Nowadays an increasing number of researchers believe precisely the opposite; that there exists a multitude of intelligences, quite independent of each other; that each intelligence has its own strengths and constraints; that the mind is far from unencumbered at birth; and that it is unexpectedly difficult to teach things that go against early ‘naiv...
