fedora operating system (os)

Fedora (pronounced /fəˈdɔrə/) is an RPM-based, general purpose collection of software including an operating system based on the Linux kernel, developed by the community-supported Fedora Project and sponsored by Red Hat. The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.[2]
One of Fedora's main objectives is not only to contain software distributed under a free and open source license, but also to be on the leading edge of such technologies.[3][4] Fedora developers prefer to make upstream changes instead of applying fixes specifically for Fedora—this ensures that their updates are available to all Linux distributions.[5]
Fedora has a comparatively short life cycle: version X is maintained until one month after version X+2 is released. With 6 months between releases, the maintenance period is a very short 13 months for each version.[6] This can lead to trouble should one wish to use a particular version of Fedora for product development (i.e., embedded systems) where long term support is more important than maintaining leading edge revisions of software.
In 2008, Linus Torvalds, author of the Linux kernel, stated that he used Fedora because it had fairly good support for the PowerPC processor architecture which he favored at the time.[7]

WHAT IS BITCOIN MINING

Image
One of the fundamental questions many people have about Bitcoin revolves around the tokens themselves. Questions about its value, security and history, all eventually lead to one place: Where do bitcoins come from? While traditional money is created through (central) banks, bitcoins are “mined” by Bitcoin miners: network participants that perform extra tasks. Specifically, they chronologically order transactions by including them in the Bitcoin blocks they find. This prevents a user from spending the same bitcoin twice; it solves the “double spend” problem. Skipping over the technical details, finding a block most closely resembles a type of network lottery. For each attempt to try and find a new block, which is basically a random guess for a lucky number, a miner has to spend a tiny amount of energy. Most of the attempts fail and a miner will have wasted that energy. Only once about every ten minutes will a miner somewhere succeed and thus add a new block to the blockchain. This al...

arsenal win....yahoooooo

Arsenal’s nickname – “Barcelona Lite” – was never meant as an insult, but for 75 minutes on Wednesday night it seemed a bit like one. As two of the most entertaining teams in Europe did battle in the Champions League round-of-16 first leg, big brother Barca was winning out, keeping the team that would love to be seen as a worthy imitation at arm’s length. Then, suddenly, little brother Arsenal found its mojo. Having seen Barcelona settle into its brand of seamless majesty and cruise to a 1-0 lead thanks to David Villa, the Gunners refused to crumble like so many before them. First they found a way to compete with and harangue one of the slickest passing machines soccer has ever seen, and then, with confidence replenished, embark upon a late smash-and-grab raid to earn a 2-1 victory and set things up perfectly for the return leg in Spain next month. Goals from Robin van Persie and Andrei Arshavin turned the match on its head, but in reality, Arsenal’s revival came from the very heart o...
