Re-reading this for about the 20th time, lol. I always learn something I may have glossed over. I got to thinking, there are probably other comprehensive guides just like the Hitchhiker's Guide. I have searched, and most of what I find is general info. Secure your router, harden Linux and Windows, etc, but never really getting into the meat n' taters.

So, I turn to the pros here to see if perhaps I have missed some resource somewhere. I generally tend to stay away from video and podcast tuts, preferring to read instead. I feel I get a better understanding that way.

Inundate me with info!

The "wholly remarkable" Guide is described as being Megadodo Publications' most successful book, being more popular than The Celestial Homecare Omnibus, better-selling than 53 More Things To Do in Zero Gravity and more controversial than philosophical author Oolon Colluphid's blockbuster "God Trilogy" (Where God Went Wrong, Some More of God's Greatest Mistakes, and Who is this God Person Anyway?).

I believe we are reading two different Hitchhiker's Guide.

Hold on, gotta go build a couple of earths with some hyper intelligent pandimensional mice. I’ll get back to you in a few billion years with the answer.

As you wish!

Look through this index. Maybe something catches your eye. Also some of these links are part of webrings so I think you'll be occupied with this information for awhile.
