Ubuntu AIO DVD Has All Ubuntu 14 04 LTS Flavors on One Disk
Ubuntu AIO DVD Has All Ubuntu 14 04 LTS Flavors on One Disk
Ubuntu AIO DVD (all-in-one), a collection of the most important Ubuntu 14.04 LTS flavors made available on April 17, 2014, is now ready for download.
Canonical released its latest Ubuntu 14.04 LTS distribution back in April, and along with it all the other famous flavors were also offered. There is a single problem with this launch, namely that the distros come as separate operating systems and you will have to download five ISOs, including the original, if you want to have all of them.
The Ubuntu AIO DVD was put together by Milan Raj?i? and helps users have all the major Ubuntu spins on a single DVD: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Kubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu GNOME 14.04, Xubuntu 14.04 LTS, and Lubuntu 14.04 LTS.
There are some caveats to this collection. For example, not all the official flavors that are based on Ubuntu have been integrated, which means that Ubuntu Server, Edubuntu, Mythbuntu, and Ubuntu Studio are not present. Also, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Ubuntu GNOME feature only the 64-bit version, and Xubuntu and Lubuntu are only present in the 32-bit release.
As you can imagine, this is a very large compilation and it holds the official images that you can also download from the Canonical servers. The difference is that users have a single image that holds them all.
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) was deemed a success by its developers and the adoption rate for the new system has been high. Given the fact that Ubuntu 13.04 has just reached end of life and Ubuntu 13.10 only has a couple more months to live, its likely that more users will flock to the new Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
If you are not familiar with the official Ubuntu flavors, here is a rundown: Ubuntu is the base operating system developed by Canonical and comes with the Unity desktop environment, a piece of software made by the same developers.
Kubuntu is built by the community and is based on KDE SC, another type of desktop environment. In the case of Kubuntu 14.04 LTS the latest KDE available is 4.12.3.
Ubuntu GNOME is a newer member of the Ubuntu family, developed by the user base as well. As the name implies, this is a distro built with GNOME, in this case 3.10.
Xubuntu is also developed by the community and comes with the Xfce desktop environment, which is a lighter solution for people who want a more conservative desktop, although it can be greatly customized.
Lubuntu is probably the lightest official flavor of Ubuntu and its based on LXDE. Its been around for quite some time, and it is recommended for older systems.
You can download the Ubuntu AIO DVD right now from Softpedia.

Ubuntu has peaked
Ubuntu has peaked
I searched Ubuntu in Google Trends and this is what I got:
As you can see, the graph is sliding down and its current popularity is close to the levels of 2006.
2006.
Back when it was just starting to get popular. I think I started using Ubuntu in 2008.
With the rise of Android and iOS, there has been a shift to mobile OS.
Ubuntu too has come up with a mobile OS. I saw the video demos and it does look interesting.
Surprisingly, Ubuntu is most popular in Cuba.

Type checking in javascript has never been easier
Type checking in javascript has never been easier
Flow is one of Facebooks open source projects. It allows developers to check for programming errors in javascript code with very less effort. This is a sample code available on their site:
function foo(x) {
return x * 10;
}
foo(Hello, world!);
Note that a string is passed into the function foo and an arithmetic operation is performed on that string inside it. When flow is run on this code:
01_HelloWorld/hello.js:7:5,17: string
This type is incompatible with
01_HelloWorld/hello.js:4:10,13: numberIt points out that the string is incompatible with number. Consider a much much complex code. An error like this can simply be unnoticed until a runtime error is raised.

UConn women s basketball team has even former pro coaches impressed
UConn women s basketball team has even former pro coaches impressed
UConn Women"s Basketball vs Albany Highlights
STORRS >> For seven days earlier this month former WNBA coach Dan Hughes had a front-row seat for not only five postseason games played by the four-time defending national champion UConn womens basketball team, but also practices and shootarounds.
Hughes, who retired as the San Antonio Stars head coach and general manager after the 2016 season, was part of the broadcasting crew for both the American Athletic Conference tournament and the first two games in the NCAA tournament. His gig gave Hughes, who won 237 regular-season games in the WNBA, a chance to check out UConn coach Geno Auriemma and his staff preparing the Huskies for a run at an unprecedented fifth consecutive national title.
Hughes coached his WNBA teams to the playoffs 10 times in his 17 seasons, including San Antonios run to the championship series in 2008, so he has a different take on things than many of those who have been color commentators on UConn games over the years.
I think they do an incredible job of putting together the pieces from a teaching standpoint, hughes said. They do a great job of player development, they do a great job of conceptual team things and then they also teach the players to be adult-like in their maturity in the game. They kind of understand it is not just providing information, it is getting them to own the process. They do as good as a job as I see on those different things, so whatever they chose to do comes out in a very mature way.

Auriemma has often said his teams play its best when it is running offense instead of executing plays. Rather than slowing his players down by demanding that they run things a particular way, he asks them to read what the defense is giving them and act accordingly.
It is one thing to say, I want you to go here, and I want you to be here, and do this, Hughes said. They teach it in a way that the players know why they are going there more than some. It is not just you go here and do this, they kind of have to own the totality of why they are going there and they do that really well as teachers.
Hughes had been on the committee which selected the U.S. womens national teams when Auriemma was the national team coach. It gave Hughes a glimpse into the way Auriemma runs practices and also how he holds his players to a certain expectation level.
I kind of knew they did it, Hughes said. Where I got a good appreciation was being with USA Basketball for the last eight years, watching Geno doing it in short pieces with them. The other thing that is really great is Chris Dailey. I have dealt with her a lot over the years. I dealt with her a lot of the time when the kids are going from college into the pros, and she has been so reliable and understanding that process and the players have been so mature. When I got them they were so mature as teammates, they were mature in how to practice and I didnt have to do a lot, they came in ready.
Hughes coached Jen Rizzotti from 2001-03 when he was the head coach of the now defunct Cleveland Rockets. He came full circle when he was able to work with former UConn point guard Moriah Jefferson, who was selected by San Antonio with the second overall pick in the 2016 WNBA Draft.
Many years Jefferson would have been named the WNBA Rookie of the Year, but with her former UConn teammate Breanna Stewart on the scene, she had to settle for being a member of the All-Rookie team.
Hughes is rather certain that will not be the final honor bestowed on Jefferson in the WNBA.
I believe at some point she will be the best player at the point position in the WNBA, Hughes said, She reminded me of me coaching Becky Hammon, she reminded me of me coaching Jen Rizzotti, Dawn Staley, Suzie McConnell-Serio and yet she is 22 years old. It was so much fun for me to have somebody who looked at the game intelligently, was tough, but highly skilled. If you cant get energy from coaching Moriah Jefferson then you are dead. If you have any pulse going, she just makes you want to be there. She was fun.

Ultimate Edition 5 1 Has released Supported until the year 2019
Ultimate Edition 5 1 Has released Supported until the year 2019
A new version of Ultimate Edition is out and ready for download. Version 5.1 is still based on Ubuntu 16.04, but it comes with the KDE Plasma desktop and, as usual, plenty of customisations and eye candy
What is Ultimate Edition 5.1?
Ultimate Edition 5.1 was built from the Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerius tree using a combination of Tmosb (TheeMahn�s Operating System Builder) & work by hand. Tmosb is also included in this release (1.9.7), allowing you to do the same. Tmosb 1.9.8 has also been uploaded allowing you to build up to Zesty over 3000 Operating Systems. This release IS a Long Term Supported (LTS) release, supported until the year 2019. This release is most certainly worthy of the Ultimate Edition title. I hate KDE. No news there, but I believe I spent a ton of time refining it to make our users happy. Did I mention I hate KDE? Looks too much like that other Operating System.
Ultimate Gamers Edition is an open source and completely free Linux kernel-based operating system derived from the world�s most popular distribution of Linux, Ubuntu, and designed from the ground up for hardcore gamers.
It�s distributed as a 32-bit Live DVD
The Gamers flavor of the Ultimate Edition Linux operating system is distributed as a Live DVD ISO image that has approximately 4GB in size, it supports both 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x86_64) hardware platforms, but contains software packages optimized only for the 32-bit architecture. It can be written to either a DVD disc or a USB thumb drive of 4GB or higher capacity.

Currently I have only built the tip of the iceburg, I have began and finished building Ultimate Edition 5.4 & can build 5.5 based on Zesty (17.04). A Long Term Supported release (LTS). Our beta besters are asking for inclusion of Bungie & ltde. I will most likely do so, I try and listen to my people, sometimes it is hard to listen to a Million or 2 at a time.
