Nerd alert: First Lucid Lynx Ubuntu beta fun

improving apperance

If you are looking to improve the desktop appearance and give it a cool factor, look for compiz-settings-manager in the software center or synaptics package manager. This will allow you to enable things like the cube desktop, window animations, wobbly windows, etc.

Cube desktop is by far the most useful eye candy I have ever used. Works much better than the standard desktop pager when trying to navigate through applications with a lot of screen updates. I use it with my recording software to navigate between my mixing, editing and mastering programs.

Jobcentre ejects Jedi Knight

Jedi stirring trouble

I do not pretend to know all the intricacies of the Jedi religion. Maybe it's quackery, maybe there is something to it... But, I have seen the Star Wars movies to know that at least the way the Jedi behaved in that universe is very unlike this supposed "Jedi" is behaving.

Jedi normally follow whatever rules and regulations that normal citizens are subject to, and only disobeyed in extreme cases.

I also don't remember any Jedi in the movies looking for jobs at a job center, and definitely not filing formal complaints against anyone.

I'm not one to pick on someones beliefs, but somehow I don't feel this person believes anything he says he does and is really only looking to stir trouble and draw attention.. Two traits that are also not very "Jedi-like.'
