Food for Thought

Whether measured by wages, income or wealth, for 25 years the share of the privileged has increased, and everyone else (a roughly 80 percent majority) has become relatively worse off. We are truly in a second Gilded Age.

Apt-Get Package Installation Issues

OK, so, I have been running debian with KDE for about a month now. My problem is, I finally decided I wanted to install Amarok, because of all I have been hearing about it. I go to amarok.kde.org/wiki/download:Debian (or whatev the link is, I just did that from memory), and it says, all I have to do is "apt-get install amarok". I type that in, all I get is that the package amarok doesn't exist. whatever, apt-get update will fix that, nope

aptitude install amarok.
NOPE

I then open my sources.list file, to find out the only repositories I have are the security.debian repositories, probably because I wasn't connected to a network when I installed. So, can anyone help me out, and post the default debian sources.list file? NOT THE UBUNTU one, I have been searching all day, and all I can find is the ubuntu sources.list...

so, anyhelp?
