Fedora Core 6: Frequently Answered Questions
By: Nickisgod1
This originally started out as a thread on a forum I visit, because I got sick of answering the same questions over and over. Mostly simple stuff, but many people seemed to have benefited, so I thought I would edit the forum post into an article to help out new Linux users.

Getting the Most Out of Your Connection Speeding Up the Internet:
By: Cooper
I'm sure you've seen the ads about "speeding up your internet". The products they try to sell you will vary from pure snake oil, to often rebranded free download managers. The one thing the offered products tend to have in common is that for the most part they simply do not work. Interestingly enough, there are programs out there that will give you a very real increase in the perceived speed of your internet connection. And best of all, it doesn't have to cost you a thing.

Setting up an IRC Bot:
By: TechCentric-Nick
Setting up IRC bots nowadays isn't the hassle it used to be. Early on, you had to be able to code a bot from scratch, including adding in support for anything and everything you wanted to do. Now, there are several excellent bot frameworks to base bots off of, limiting the amount of work to be done while maximizing its power and capabilities, and streamlining it into nearly a 1-2-3 process. The point of this article is to walk a newbie user through setting up an IRC bot with the goal of adding external capabilities to it in the future.

By: Famicoman
Warchalking is an activity made to go along with the act of Wardriving. For those of you who don't know what wardriving is, its simply just going around with something like a laptop or PDA and looking for WiFi networks in your area. There are numerous articles and publications on wardriving, so I won't delve into them here.

Exploring Networks:
By: Nickisgod1
Have you just started that new job, you're beginning at a new school, or you just got that new Internet connection?

The World Outside:
By: Moonlit
Every time I take a ride through the countryside it makes me wonder. While it's not for everyone I have to say I love the scenery. I watch the green hills roll by, the cattle grazing in the fields and the corn peacefully swaying in the breeze but wait... there's something I can see that seems to follow me wherever I go. No matter how far I go, no matter where I look that something is technology...

To start off with I'll show you simple console input and output in C and C++.

Voice Activated Mac Media Center aka Voice Row:
By: Shinmaryuu
There are millions it seems media centers out there of many different types and complexity but nothing matches the coolness of the old Star Trek episodes where the computer did whatever you said, literally. This project is not the holodeck but trust me it's just as cool. Even better is having a solid media center or media center front end can be had for as little as 200 dollars. Plus you can talk to it.
