I used to believe that people who didn’t respond promptly to email were the worst kind of sinner. That was when I got several hundred email a month. Not a day. :/
[Later] Best summary of the Real/Apple rumble.
Because I have Connections, passes to the DNC fell from the sky this afternoon. I also got my new camera today, so I took some pictures. Was sort of fun- I have to think Jimmy Carter could win a second term right now if he wanted to. We jokingly started cheering ‘four more years’ after [...]
In googling to solve my nautilus/VNC problems (all of jhbuilt gnome except nautilus runs fine under VNC, for some reason) I found this. Blast From The Past(tm).
A couple people have written me after my last post- thanks for the words of encouragement and support.
I’m currently playing with HEAD desktop (some nice new tweaks in panel and elsewhere), vino, and all the cool new ifolder/beagle/dashboard bits. I’ve actually (gasp) filed useful bugs, for the first time in ages. Been nice [...]
Clearly at this point the stress in my personal life and overcommitment in my professional life are leading me to say and do things that are hurtful to my friends and/or devalue what I’ve worked on over the past several years. And that’s the last thing I want to do, given that the success of [...]
After some polite nagging, I set about building HEAD tonight for the first time in a long time. jhbuild is still the build-challenged idiot’s best friend. And rug is still the default-install-challenged person’s best friend; you don’t know what your system is missing until you realize it doesn’t have m4. Or flex. Or… anyway. This [...]
After reading fafblog today, I have come to the firm conclusion that GNOME should resolve further debates about module inclusion via the Socratic Method.Dave can play the part of Fafnir, and I can swim in ham jello.
Stefano is one of those people who appears to constantly be throwing off good ideas, in my limited association with him. Today’s good idea is the best explanation of RDF I’ve seen yet. Sorry, Edd. I still love ya.
sri: the number of people who read planet, as opposed to the number of people reached, say, every time linuxtoday or lwn publish an article from kde’s news sites, is probably fairly small. So don’t be afraid to rehash stuff that has been on planet- it’s important that this fairly closed universe be represented out [...]
Had an awesome weekend in and around Conway, New Hampshire, with Krissa, my mom, and my stepdad. We went canoeing yesterday and hiking today. We stayed at a fun bed and breakfast close enough to Conway to make it easy to hit the stores when I needed antihistamines on Saturday morning, but far enough away [...]
