Tagline:

I will keep working until there is at least one 0 and no 5's in my total reputation.

I am Emerson Hsieh from Taiwan, currently living in Canada.

I love computers and love screwing up my computer in my free time (Screwed up twice, fixed it 3 times). It is ranked as "unusable" by my dad, but luckily there is something called "Ubuntu".

I use ubuntu one-in-a-while, but most of the time I use my dad's MacBook Pro and had spent most of the time seeing a bunch of kernel panics.

In my free time I like translating Ubuntu in Launchpad, AskUbuntu General Room, making Android and iOS apps, and reading Wired. I currently have 2 apps on Google Play Android and the Appstore.

My favorite things are Linux, Android, Sketchup(Trimble!!!), Windows 8, Apples (the real ones), and Corona SDK.

It may be a corrupted iso file. Try redownloading Ubuntu and see if it works.

comment How to remove Ubuntu and put Windows back on?
@Tru Try right-clicking and remove the free space from the partition. If the free space is on the left of the partition you want to extend, download this tool: partition-tool.com/personal.htm (which is free and I've been using it for 2 years) and move the partition you want to extend to the left of the free space. Hope this helps :)

revised How to correctly install and troubleshoot Minecraft (Client)
My keyboard wasn't working for minecraft, then I tried sudo and it didn't work either. So I disabled IBus and my keyboard finally worked in Minecraft (yay). Thought it would be useful to add it here :)
