Just a few observations from today, or yesterday, whichever you prefer. First, a eulogy of sorts. Lisa’s wedding weblog has ceased to be, and the usual weblog has moved altogether. This is as you can imagine a tragic turn of events, but because of the sanctity of privacy (or, as much can be gathered from [...]
Well, as usual with any Linux installation, once it’s absolutely perfect, I must now go ahead and destroy it. Actually, no that’s not true. It’s just tweaking, prodding, poking, etc… all for the sake of learning. And I’ve accomplished a feat that a) I’ve been working on for a couple days and b) wasn’t researched [...]
While at work I get to research those things I’d otherwise not do at home, or spend all day researching and never quite solve. There’s nothing like single minded boredom to solve the most pressing concerns. With my research today, I bring you more Linux goodness. This has been done to death in Linux circles, [...]
I’m about to go to bed, but I just wanted to post what might not have been, had I sold the laptop: Snapshot2.jpg Had I sold the laptop, I would not have installed SuSE Linux 9.2, and not found Linux ‘heaven’. I’m not sure what I’ll do when SuSE Linux 9.3 becomes available for the [...]
That’s basically how I’m feeling today – as in, I don’t have anything to do. I reformatted both my desktop and laptop, with two distinct operating systems. The desktop is now running winxp home sp2 (2k previously) and the laptop is now running SuSE 9.2 (linux, dual boot with home). With both I’m very happy. [...]
No matter how much effort, petitioning and things of that nature, ANWR has fallen. For those uninitiated, ANWR is the Artic National Wildlife Refuge – previously untouchable land in Alaska dedicated to the preservation of well, wildlife. It was set aside under Clinton, something like Yellowstone. It’s no longer a refuge. As of today, after [...]
I’ve been in conflict with the laptop. You all know that. But I’ve also been in conflict with my car. It really is because I miss the Benz (how spoiled, childish, ‘priviledged sounding’ is that?). Though, in seriousness, I miss and like the Benz because it was what it was – a car with attitude. [...]
And when I say that, I really mean only a handful of people who know this website read the weblog. That’s not to say the people that are reading are nobodies, but my method of comparison is that Lisa gets a lot of ‘stranger’ traffic, as in people other than the small group of loved [...]
So, basically, I’ve spent the last three days cleaning and doing various chores while Lisa was away tending to marriage related items in upstate New York. I think I did pretty well, all things considered. Mostly cleaning. The car failed inspection, because of my aftermarket fog lights. So, simulataneously I removed them and began hunting [...]
I was reading opinionjournal.com, which is the Wall Street Journal editorial section. Why? Simply to keep aprised of the arguments for the conservative side. “Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.” It occurred to me that if I mentioned to a religious southerner that I was reading the WSJ, that religious southerner (depending on [...]
