    [KDE] Kubuntu / Ubuntu "dashboard" advantage

    Kubuntu form of the "dashboard".

    TWO PARTS.........

    for the GREAT RELIEF OF THE OLD GROANERS AT THE FORUM!!

    THERE IS

    FIRST......... "the situation"

    and then

    SECONDLY: "the tangential rant about the situation". lol

    +++++++++++++++++++++

    Anyway...................................

    This is about "the dashboard", the "shiny, transluscent, black, thingy" that one gets at rather odd times...

    A) I first invoked Menu / Graphics / GIMP / file / create / Xsane / USB hp 6600

    and.....clicked it.......

    DESPERATELY GRABBED THE BOOK IN THE DEVICE AND HELD IT DOWN SO THAT I COULD MAYBE REDUCE......


    the........dreaded .........."shadow"......on a page.....

    LOL LOL

    WE HAVE ALL DONE IT!! lol



    OK.....picture this.......

    I'm holding the book with BOTH hands......the scan is done......

    BUT.......I can't let go!!!

    I then move my left hand to the mouse and invoke it........

    and........

    the

    "Kubuntu maybe specially tweaked / Ubuntu dashboard" is invoked and the scan and the app appear in the

    SEMITRANSPARENT BLACK SHINEY

    dashboard, I then can choose the scan and "save as"....

    I do that again two more times....

    saved as .xcf.

    I was then able to remove the book,

    and "export as" .png

    In other words........

    Whether it is a "Kubuntu thing" or an "Ubuntu thing"........

    I HAVE THE WHOLE SCREEN TO MOVE THE MOUSE AROUND IN...

    WITH MY NON NORMAL HAND......in this case.....left hand...

    Instead............

    of what Microshat does......with......

    little dinguses on the panel.

    Just sayin' that the "dashboard" of Kubuntu, or Ubuntu is very

    USER friendly......

    THIS SHOULD SOMEHOW........

    SOMEHOW........

    I MEAN SOMEHOW............

    BEEEEEE SHOUTED TO THE WORLD!!

    IF I HAVE MIS-Labled the "black thing that has all the windows in it"

    A MORE SMARTER PERSONAGE should correct the old woodsmoker

    ++++++++++++++++++++++

    B ) The college has purchased the "copyright uses" of the "physics lab" which was authored by the woman who offered me a position teaching physical science and now physics.

    NON ACADEMIC PEOPLE JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND the LEVEL of STUPIDITY that ACADEMIC bureaucrats can attain.......

    OR THE FEIGNED LACK OF KNOWLEDGE.......of the ENTRENCHED BUREAUCRAT....

    Guess what..........when they "get tenure"........THEY CANNOT BE FIRED!!!

    CONTRARY TO THE BUREAUCRATS........who are more interested in protecting their position and putting the teacher down, so that they have SOMEthing going on during the day because there is NOTHING going on "at home"....

    making a "copy" of ....

    a) an educational inspiration is completely legal.
    b) UMMMM making a copy of a PURCHASED document, for which the teacher is given explicit permission to "ummmm" "make copies".......IS FREAKING LEGAL!! DUUHH!!

    But..........not.........to....

    THE UBIQUITOUS GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRAT.....who ...just LOVES to make "people below him"

    NOTICE DOMINANCE SUBMISSION.......I'll bet all of these guys were doing something under their coats while watching fifty shades of grey......

    Apparently.........according to "the net" there was a woman who was EXPLICITELY caught "doing something" while she was WATCHING THE FILM......

    I'm sure that the elites are going to jump all over this that she was a Wal-Mart shopper.......lol.........

    What if............she was a college prof at.......Harvard and so much of a geek that she had to go to the movie....by her self.....lol ? BOGGLES THE MIND... lol

    anyway.......back to

    the GNOME....... lol

    The GNOME.......who is paid by YOU........ to "monitor" possible INFRACTIONS by the OBVIOUSLY STUPID........AND CLULESS......AND NEVER TRAINED.....

    teachers........ challenged me on putting the copies on Blackboard.......for the students to......ummm download.........

    I indicated to the GNOME, that the students had PAID cash monies, or Obama grant monies, or Bush scholarship monies, to..........be ..........able.......to DO PRECISELY THAT......

    I SHOWED THE FU@#$%^ GNOME THE PAPERWORK FROM THE COLLEGE TO THE PUBLISHER ..........

    But the GNOME ..........got in his "digs" anyway....... lol....... I laugh in my vodka martini.....

    But, the GNOME............had me drive fourty miles, and wait in a waiting room, to spend an hour ...........

    to tell the GNOME.........EXACTLY WHAT HE ALREADY KNOWS......

    But........he can now put on his job reports that he "had concerns".........

    AND THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION THROUGH THE EDDICATION DEPARTMENT..........

    got a "check mark" .....that "he had done his job"...

    SO that a GNOME in the Eddication department can have HER OR HIS supervisor put a checkmark next to the person that.......he or she "did her job".....

    WHAT A F#$%^&* JOKE......

    IT IS A JOKE.............

    *********************

    I QUIT LISTENING TO NPR..........when, after about TWO YEARS.......

    All I heard out of their mouths was.....that "this reporter has concerns".........

    about anything that does not hew to the liberal line........

    THIS MAN..............

    "had concerns" about......"my behaviour"........

    and he got a tick mark that he did his job........

    WHEN HE KNEW EXACTLY what was going on........

    But.....

    AND THIS IS REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT.......

    "this part of government"

    does not know

    LEGALLY

    what

    "that part of government"

    is doing......

    IF THIS WAS A REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION...............

    THE SAME.........F&^%$#@ thing would be going on..........

    FOR DIFFERENT SUPPOSED REASONS.......

    THE BIG DIFFERENCE NOW.......

    IS THAT OBAMA SAID THIS WOULD NOT HAPPEN UNDER HIM!!! AND HE THREW IT UP THAT THE REPUBLICANS DID THIS AS A MATTER OF COURSE AND


    that he was...........BETTER........than all that...
