Hmm, today I was thinking whether you should allow to be broken by blackmail, or should fight? If we consider it in a simple way, the answer is obvious. But, what to do if in case you win, it will in some way hit you? That is, you will lose something what you could gain if you allowed someone to break you. This is the point where the dilemma starts. Be broken and lose your honor or remain unbendable and lose an opportunity of doing something that you would like to do – that is the question. This is a question from my current life but it is in some way connected with Linux and Open Source. Remain committed to the idelogy or permit to be bought? In this case, the ideology can be connected with money profits, but sometimes a good payment could be offered to you if you allowed to be bought. It’s a main problem that we can meet in everyday life. My answer to this is that you have to remain free, with free mind and free choice. As John Lennon sang, “One thing I can tell you is you got to be free!”. These words remain up to date to presentday, and will remain immortal forever. My friend says: “You have to know your own value”. So, we should never allow to be broken by blackmail, as freedom is one of the most valuable things we can have. Remember it.
Fedora.pl – reactivation
Posted January 14, 2007 by McGiwerCategories: Linux & Open Source, My life
I’m proud to inform you that some time ago, we’ve reactivated the Polish site and support forum – www.fedora.pl. Actually, we’ve created a new layout based on WordPress (
). Now it looks really great and, as one user said, smells with freshness
Right now, we’re planning to reactivate Wiki so everyone will be able to help other people by writing articles. We’re on the right way, now we have to just keep the work!
Come back!
Posted January 14, 2007 by McGiwerCategories: Uncategorized
After a long while, I’ve decided it’s time to write something new. Now I’ll try to write more often, so that you won’t have to wait long with impatience for a next post
If it comes about the RHCE exam, I’ll come back to this matter after my final Matura exam in May… Now, let’s start writing the right content.
Test matura exam – day 3rd (Maths)
Posted November 17, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: My life
Ok, I’m already after the whole test matura exam. My today’s subject was maths. What I can say – the tasks were possible to do
I have to study a lot before the final exam in May – I’m an optimist
Now I have some time before I will know the results. We’ll see
Test matura exam – day 2nd (English)
Posted November 16, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: My life
Huh, I’m already after the English test matura exam. I don’t know what to say about it – it was neither very easy, nor extremely difficult. Second part of the exam in my opinion was more difficult – I hope it didn’t go very bad
Tomorrow maths on the extended level, we’ll see
Test matura exam – day 1st (Polish)
Posted November 15, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: My life
Today, I had a test matura exam. The subject was Polish language. It was relatively easy – I only hope it won’t be more difficult in May, when it will be the final exam. Ok, now I have two more test exams before me – English (tomorrow), and maths (Friday). I’m of a good mind
Polish Fedora Core 6 Release Notes ready!
Posted November 12, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: Linux & Open Source
Together with the release of Fedora Core 6 (even a bit earlier), there is a Polish translation of Fedora Core 6 Release Notes. The version for FC6 is already published, but FC5 relnotes are not yet… Heh, I don’t have time to edit the whole translation to prepare it for publication. I hope I will do it one day, as it would be a pity to not publish them if they’re already translated
I hope the Polish version will be helpful for many Polish Fedora users to start their adventure with the Fedora world. You can find the Polish translation at http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc6/pl/.
RHCE exam on another date
Posted October 1, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: Linux & Open Source, My life
Some time ago I’ve been writing about my upcoming RHCE exam. I didn’t take the exam as it was firstly planned on 25th August. I’ve just decided it will be better to take it on another date. The exam is going to take place in this month. I will inform you about the result
Red Hat conference
Posted October 1, 2006 by McGiwerCategories: Linux & Open Source, My life
On 25th September there was a Red Hat conference in Cracow, Poland. The main topic was a Red Hat’s Linux is Easy program. I had a pleasure to speak on this topic
The conference was really great – the best I’ve ever been on. I also got few Fedora T-shirts, partly sponsored by B2B, Red Hat Authorized Distributor in Poland. But heh… I forgot about them by a moment on a train station and… after a longer while they disappeared. Finally, there’s nothing to worry about, as they were intended to be given away
I should receive a package with 200 Fedora T-shirts soon, so I’m waiting with impatience
All I can say about everything – the conference and all related to it – just great

I’m starting my preparation for the RHCE exam, which will take place on 25th day of this month. I have 19 days of learning before me. I’m of a good mind
