  1. (re)Installing Arch (didn't have enough space to install updates) at school is a bad idea. Mostly working now, though.

  2. Apparently, Identica works on lynx. Not overly surprising, but a fun thing to know.

  3. Response times are still a bit slow sometimes, and RAM usage is over 300MB (almost half of all the RAM in use), but it seems to be better.

  4. Firefox has issues; using up 500MB+ of RAM, taking forever to respond or not responding at all, etc. Seems to be fixed now, though ...

  5. It's been quite a while since I've last dented, probably due to a mixture of schoolwork and the novelty wearing off.

  9. Bug: people keep on asking me questions about using Linux. Solution: ignore them. Notes: suggesting Linux to people is a terrible idea.

  10. Working on some new writing projects in my free time, which I'll probably put online eventually - documenting fictional products, mostly.

  11. Considering migrating my Eee to Arch linux instead of EeeXubuntu. Probably won't, but it would be interesting to try.

  12. Script completed, added a progress indicator before starting it up again on another directory.

  13. Although I should have added some sort of simple progress bar, so I would know how far it is. Too late now, though.

  14. BASH makes my life a lot easier, especially as I know enough to write useful scripts in it.

  15. Moving files off my external drive, to free it up for moving stuff around.

  16. USB hub seems to have issues with one of the port, though other devices work fine with that port, and the hub works fine on another port.

  17. I now have a faraday cage bag, which proves very effective in blocking cellphone signals. Still need to test it with RFID tags.

  19. Added a new drive to my computer, 160GB IDE, now messing around with it and getting it set up. Considering naming all the drives.

  20. The Great Filter: http://tinyurl.com/3qvjdc . Very interesting, although it relies on the universe being inherently logical on some level.
