Wrote a fairly long bash script the other day and got the order of arguments wrong on all 100 something lines of it.
Also spent an hour trying to find what package includes the mount command in linux. It is apparently util-linux.

Go watch anonymous have fun

OMG! M$ Playing nice with OPEN SOURCE!
Well, sort of. Red Hat managed to negotiate a no-strings contract for virtualization certifications. Still, its a pretty big step in the right direction.

Also, apparently the motherboard I'm using at the moment is now supported by coreboot. Coreboot is pretty neat because it allows for more customization of the boot process as well as better multi-os support.

First of all, just went to the Market Pro Shows website... The July 1&2 computer show in richmond vanished... GRRR... Next one is scheduled to be about the same time i'm supposed to be checking into my dorm room at Norwich. I sent an email inquiring about this vanishment because on occasion they have dissapeared yet occured or been there and not occured.
Secondly, The OVERMIND MKIII is being assemble from the remains of OVERMIND MKI and a mound of miscellaneous hardware. Currentlty, I have 1 of 3 network cards that I installed working. If I can get an answer out of the people on the fedora forum as to how I can acquire the modules "ne" and "eexpress" I don't think I can get the other two to function. It also looks like I have a snowball's chance in hell of getting any of the modems I have to function.
Thirdly, the date had been configrmed by both parental units to be the weekend of 7/8, however, unless my mom finishes here 18500 piece puzzle by then, we will be in the garage, which is a little cramped (ask ratboy, trevafish or psycho/pyro joe)

Lastly, I need sleep ...

I haven't said much in a while and i cant sleep... anyways... .I have a job in VA (YEAH!) Goin to cuputer show on 7/1 or 7/2 (YEAH). Planning to have LANCLAN 7/8 to 7/9 (double yeah)... i'll post some more interesting stuff when i finish fighting with Fedora Core 5 i386 and my horde of NE2000 and compatable network cards.. laters...

Hooray for abrrubt weather changes. Fiday, it was sunny and 70, today we got 3" of snow and it was 30... and so goes spring in Vermont.
Also, last night i had what I think was the most unusual indicator that I should go to sleep I have ever had. I've been reading "The Red Badge of Courage" for english 102 and as I was trying to get through the chapters and answer the required questions last night, I decided it was time to stop (thankfully I was on the last question) when I swore I was seeing penguins with read bowties dancing above the lines of perfectly legible text much like the Cid's were dancing in Chocobo Robo Voice. I don't know if I just fell asleep for a minute and didn't notice it or what, but I remember that quite clearly.
In other news, I spent half the afternoon in IM conversation with a friend from the UK in order to figure out how to change the permissions of a folder in linux. I already knew how to chnge the permissions, but for some reason they wouldn't stay that way. But in the end, we figured it out. yeah!
