Political Suicide of Ceylon

This piece is in evolution.
Sri-Lankan electorate is basically STUPID but the problem is they do not want to accept they are STUPID.
That supidy is giving NPP/JVP two third majority, neither have a political agenda nor maturity to bring back our economy to a sustainable footing.
I am almost a apolitical now but was a political animal.
I was involving in ousting Sirimavo.
But when I realized bringing in JRJ was a big mistake I got activated again and involved in bringing in changes to the constitution. 
We did not get anything out of Chandrika after much expectations.She lacked direction.
I believed Mahinda Rajapaksa would retire as political hero after his success over LTTE but it became typical nepotism. 
All these guys went bonkers in their second term.
We got him out but I had no regard for Ranil and Maithrie Combo. They showed their political dichotomy and incompetenve. They were only interested in exercing their political power.
Out of these guys worse is RW.
He was a dictator as much as JRJ but he covered up his dictatorial character with some political charisma.
Most of his legislatures were to control free media and free speech.
His alliance with Anura was to hiidwink him in mid term and come to power as a saviour.
But biggest problem is when these power is given to an amateurs with one party mentality they go violently bonkers.
That is what has happened and stupid electorate does not understand.
They want stay in power for 25 years even without doing nothing to the majority of the voters. 
Their priority is their party and their single party politics.
No room for alternative opinions or democratic values.
Only Jayasumana and Sepala has understood our political predicament.

We are heading for a political catastrophe due to STUPIDITY of our average citizen.

We are heading for a dictatorship.
They will reinact what JRJ and RW wanted for UNP.
Only Wimal Weera Wansa can take a toll on this issue.
Any waiting is a political suicide.

Ragata-OS of Suse

Ragata-OS of Suse
Ragata messed up with my GRUB file.
It is designed for single use.
It had Only Office and with /root partition full I could not get audacity installed but I got Stacer installed.
It has GIMP and VLC.
In any case, I have decided to use the DVD1 of Debian 13 to install it over the testing image to get a clean install.
I already done it with my regular distribution with / home partition intact.
There are thousands of new applications and I am going to install most of them for testing.
I got one regular KDE of Ragata and modified KDE of Netrunner.
YES, I am fair to both 50% Gnome and 50% KDE (which I hate) due to its inordinate bulkiness.
However, I prefer Netrunner with Synaptic Package Manager.

 

Yes, I decided to Install Ragata OS on top of my MX Linux and it wanted 1 GB of EFI boot partition.

Well I had only 532MB.
 
I used to boot Puppy Linux and Knoppix on a 2GB hard drive and this simply megalomania coming probably from Donald Trump.
 
This was not a big deal, I deleted /boot and /root partitions and added 1.2GB for EFI.
I had 22GB for the root which is good enough and made my /boot partition 600MB.
Kept my /home partition intact with all data, files and iso images.
This is in preparation for installing Ragata which is again a Linux distribution which specializes on Games.
 
I hate to go back to Red Hat.
Thank YOU Ragata developers for reminding me of the latest EFI needs.
IGB minimum.
 
By the way, I begin to hate XFCE desktop.
I did not use it but selected Cinnamon, Gnome, KDE and MATE.

Linux Games I Love to Play

 

Linux Games I Love to Play

Linux Gamers Live, the Arch derivative is top of my list and Linux Ultimate Edition is close second and Knoppix 2008 December edition comes third and I could not find a new version of games in spite of Knoppix 6.7 was out and looks fantastic.

Knoppix cannot be installed on hard drive.
Why I choose Linux Gamers Live was simply because its front-end just looks like Apple front-end and ready for games with icons instead of names.
It also can be installed into hard disk now.


Now instead of trying to outscore these three edition which I have done a lot for Linus games, I will list my favorites below.

Even PCLinuxFuillMonty though, they have place for Linux guys and girls.
I

ndirectly FullMonty comes fourth.

1. Number one is Super Tux 2 and I enjoyed playing hours and hours.
2. Close second is Pingus and its environmental theme is commendable.
3. Number three is Extreme Tux Racer which is sweet and relaxing
4. Number 4 is SuperTuxCart (this is for the racing addict)
5. Number 5 is Tuxcart (This is for the training on racing)
6. Number 6 is Frozen Bubble
7. Number 7 is any of the 100 of tiny games
If any of the Linux distributions fail to introduce any of the top 5 of mine selection I thought of giving them minus marks in my rating in future.
 

Mind you with Wine and getedit one can play Windows , DOS and Atari games of the yesteryear.
