I have been a Kubuntu users for many years now.
So, when Kubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) was released, I took the plunge and upgraded my laptop from Kubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala), which I have been running shorty after its release in October 2009. Lucid is an Long Term Support (LTS) release, with security updates for 3 years on the desktop. Hopefully I will be staying with it for at least 2 years and skipping the 6-month releases in between.
This post details what I have found so far on Lucid, whether good or bad.

Another bad day for consumers in Canada.
The Conservative minority government is set to revive yet another attempt at implementing US-like DMCA.
See the Globe and Mail: Pending copyright bill to mimic U.S.: Geist, and CBC: Anti-consumer copyright bill on way: expert.
The CRTC, the regulator for Canada's telecommunication market, has granted Bell the right to bill customers by usage, i.e. charge more for downloads. This applies to both retail and wholesale customers. Which means that people who bought from smaller providers who use the Bell network as well.
This is bad for Teksavvy, bad for their customers and a bad day for the internet in Canada!
Via the CBC.
A woman who is of Black and Dutch ancestry marries into a Jewish family. She is a comedian and uses that as fodder for her stand up routine.
Her in-laws file a lawsuit against her!
Luckily, the judge dismisses the suite and says that the first amendment (free speech) guarantees that. He says that what she said is opinion, not facts.
Well done Ms. Judge!
What is interesting is that her husband's law firm was the one defending her! Talk about a family rift ...

A new study in the USA shows that life expectancy for Canadians is more than in the USA. The study measured health-related quality of life (HRQL). The HRQL for people over 40 years is better in Canada. The health adjusted life expectancy (HALE) for a 19 year old was 2.7 more years in Canada than in the USA.
Two cited reasons are:
a) Universal health care in Canada
b) the higher degree of social inequity in the USA
