		<title>Linux is not a bicycle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently found this blog: linux-is-a-bicycle.blogspot.com, and tried to leave a comment there, regarding the motto of the site (Linux being a bicycle), but for the life of me I just could not. Hitting either &#8220;Publish&#8221; or &#8220;Preview&#8221; just resulted in the comment I had just written to disappear. A bit frustrating. So I decided [...]]]></description>

		<title>Desktop environment manipulation from the command line</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently discovered Regnum Online, a very good MMORPG, with two interesting properties: it has a native Linux version, and is free to download and play (NGD, its owner, gets revenue through so called &#8220;premium items&#8221;, which are sold for real money. Premium items are not really necessary to play, but include convenience items like [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tiny introduction to GNU Terminator</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some weeks ago, I came across this little wonder called GNU Terminator (or &#8220;GNOME&#8221; Terminator). It is an unfortunate coincidence that there is another similar tool with the same name (Terminator). I am not going to judge which one is &#8220;better&#8221;. I just use the one at tenshu.net, which is the one that Arch Linux [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crítica a una crítica a Origen (Inception)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hace mucho que no uso el blog para criticar alguna película, y voy a aprovechar que me mueve a ello la crítica de un usuario de FilmAffinity al film Origen. El usuario es KesheR, y su crítica es esta. Vaya por delante que aunque mi crítica a su crítica sea casi tan dura como la [...]]]></description>

		<title>Does reason exist among religious people?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The title should read &#8220;theist&#8221;, not &#8220;religious&#8221;, people, but I sacrificed correctness for impact. I didn&#8217;t want the reader to spend time wondering what a theist is (if you wonder it now, a theist is someone who is almost, but not 100%, an atheist: one that disbelieves in all gods, except one). I recently stumbled [...]]]></description>

		<title>The nightmare of tagging multiple photos with digiKam, and a hacky way around it. Part II</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I posted about how to put multiple tags in tons of pictures, with digiKam. Apparently, the method I described there does not work (blame it on digiKam, of course). Still, the post makes for an interesting reading (hey, I am the author. What would I say?). Here I&#8217;ll describe a new way to acomplish [...]]]></description>

		<title>The nightmare of tagging multiple photos with digiKam, and a hacky way around it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[Update and big fat warning]: apparently, renaming or moving files does mess with the tags the image already has. A way around this, and maybe a generally good idea (use your own judgement on that one), is to make digiKam save the tags as metadata into the picture files themselves. On the con side, tagging [...]]]></description>

		<title>Scrobbling to Last.fm with Amarok 2.3 and no Kwallet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am not a great KWallet fan (probably due to ignorance), so when I introduce my Last.fm credentials in Amarok I get this warning that they will be saved in plain text (because Kwallet is not running). That didn&#8217;t bother me much, until recently. As it happens, my computer at work (Amarok 2.3 on Arch [...]]]></description>

		<title>Please, choose the right format to send me that text. Thanks.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just received an e-mail with a very interesting text (recipies for pintxos), and it prompted some experiment. The issue is that the text was inside of a DOC file (of course!), which rises some questions and concerns on my side. The size of the file was 471 kB. I thought that one could make [...]]]></description>

		<title>Speed up PyGTK and Cairo by reusing images</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you might have read in this blog, I own a Neo FreeRunner since one year ago. I have used it far less than I should have, mostly because it&#8217;s a wonderful toy, but a lousy phone. The hardware is fine, although externally quite a bit less sexy than other smartphones such as the iPhone. [...]]]></description>
