And then the old man coughed a feeble cough, one that exclaimed either “I am weak!” or “You’re missing something”. Standing up, a white tear broke apart his face and slight dust fell from his cracked lips and forehead. “I’m going to find my wife.” Even as he said this his chalky complexion darkened. His [...]
I said I’ll put up some photos, and here they are! (Some from the previous Europe trip) In left-to-right top-to-bottom order, here are some brief descriptions. 1) An obese squirrel in the park outside Buckingham Palace. They are very tame, and once they’re eating a nut, you can literally put your face right next to [...]
Sorry for the long non-techy post, but I won’t post again for a week. Hohoho. It’s Christmas. Plus, it’s also almost the end of 2008. This is traditionally the time to reflect on whatever that’s gone on in the previous year, and then say “yeah, we screwed up here, and it’s time to improve”. Or [...]
People learning PHP go through the wonderful stages of <?php echo ‘Hello, world!’; ?>, the then branch off into either: 1) Wow! It’s so dynamic! Let’s create everything right here right now! or 2) Wow! It’s so messed up I don’t know $int from $char! Unfortunately, the people who belong in (1) tend to spend [...]
Ok, a picture speaks a thousand words, and also makes typing a detailed blog post a lot easier. Let’s take a good look at what’s new with KDE 4.2 (well, actually, the entire 4.x series – everything looks cool). If you haven’t tried out KDE yet, or are cautious about entering the 4.x series, or [...]
Oh joy! I get an excuse to talk about something else other than tech for a while. For the past few days, my skin seems to have been plagued with what resembles a nasty case of chicken pox, except that it’s restricted to certain regions, such as my hands (like I’m wearing weird lumpy gloves), [...]
Well, I’ve been pretty inactive in terms of blog posts given the hectic series of events that were lined up. However now, thing’s are a lot calmer (in the most free sense of the word) and I’ll be back to my a post every 2 days schedule. Lot of fun fun fun in store. For [...]
I recently added the kde-crazy overlay to my portage. Aside from the rather nasty feeling in my gut (seriously, don’t put the word “crazy” when advertising unstable software, it scares people!), I also got access to the KDE snapshots. (What currently is version 4.1.80 – the stable is 4.1.3). Well, I don’t know about how [...]
It seems as though I’m again too busy to come up with a proper long techy post. I decided to tackle an old problem that many people overlook: the ability to communicate the advantages of a project properly to potential customers. Right now, I’m reffering to Gentoo. Gentoo is a Linux distribution which targets a [...]
Well, it seems as though version 2.6.4 has – well, quite literally been scrapped and the developers have skipped right on to 2.6.5. I’m up to date, and again using it as an excuse to take up a post on my writing schedule. For want of something more interesting to talk about, apparently Mr. Stallman [...]
