When arriving at work someone had occupied my parking space. I collected some evidence (removing and putting on my glasses several times), stole someone else’s space and went in to the office. I sent an e-mail to everyone asking who it was and got several replies how to see who owned the car. After querying the DMV via SMS and asking around I got to the perpetrator and informed her of her transgression saying “This will cost you a cake”.
Sure enough, after lunch cake was not a lie. Who can resist cake?
Jag köpte en ansenlig mängd malet kött och frigjorde plats i frysen. Idag skulle det göras köttfärssås, mycket köttfärssås. Jag är inte så ofta i köttaffären utan handlar för det mesta kött på ICA vilka inte har gjort sig kända för att hantera kött på bästa sätt. Så när jag nu tagit mig till köttaffären (Wästchark) så tänkte jag att jag köper på mig en ordentlig laddning malet kött så har jag så det räcker ett tag. Tänkt och gjort. Jag köpte 5kg blandfärs för 46kr/kg. Rätt skapligt för bra kött. Passade på att köpa ett par korvar med namnet Gulayer (stavas säkert inte så), de är starka och goda och kan ätas som snacks eller på mackorna.
I alla fall. Väl hemma med en kass full med malet kött så fick det förvaras utomhus tills dagen därpå eftersom man inte ställer sig och gör storkok kl 20. Så nästa dag införskaffades det passerade och krossade tomater, vitlök och lök och pannorna togs fram. Efter ett jäkla hackande, hällande, stekande, pysande och åter igen hällande så var det klart. 3 timmar tog det. 10 liter köttfärssås! De’ni!
… tror ni inte mig? Tänkte väl det. Så därför filmade jag spektaklet.
After starting to redo the site a couple of time from the ground up and failing, I thought I’d on the other end this time and do it live to have something to present. Sure much of the old content have been removed but in time I hope to re-enter that into this WordPress thingy.
In the meantime, Sorry about the mess, we’re redecorating.
I evaluated all tree major BSDs and would have gone with FreeBSD if it wasn’t for me being so used to Linux and that I couldn’t get it to run fully on my hardware. So I chose what seemed to be the closest Linux distro, Gentoo Linux. I maybe give FreeBSD another round some time in the future. When I separate my firewall (modem-ppp-internet) and server (file and web) from other stuff like jukebox I will probably go with OpenBSD for the firewall. pf seems really nice.
If all this seems to be excuses they are. I would really like to have most of the functionality I have on my Linux workstation but with a BSD. If I get filthy rich I might go for a Mac (as well).
I now run
XFree86 4.3.0
I will look into X.org someday if it supports nVidias drivers and my Wacom table
GNOME 2.6
I really recommend an upgrade. It looks a little better, has nicer features. I run the SmoothGNOME theme (except for the icons). Be sure to apply this patch to gtk-smooth-engine 0.5.6 if you use GTK 2.4 or later
Kernel 2.4.25 + Gentoo patches
I tried to get 2.6.4, 2.6.5 and 2.6.6 to run but X hung a lot and I couldn’t find what was causing it so I gave up and reverted to 2.4 (and installed ALSA).
Some small changes: Fixed compability issues on Windows Updated the documentation! Some small changes to the Windows installer Fixed a bug when using –dir.
I’ve started trying FreeBSD. It seems nice and is less hyped than Linux. Also I know my way around Linux, FreeBSD is a new challenge. If all of my hardware is supported odds are that I depenguinize (manually by reinstalling it) my Linux boxen. I run Red Hat Linux 9 on it now and after looking around for another distro trying Debian, Gentoo and Mandrake Linux, Gentoo was the one I liked the most. After learning that it used some concepts of BSD I gave the three free BSDs a go. FreeBSD was the one I found to my liking so I am now giving 5.2 a beating. I hope it goes well because I’d much more like running FreeBSD than some dead hat distro.
It has finally arrived, my long awaited Canon EOS-300D (Kiss Digital / Digital Rebel). I am very pleased with it. The drawback is that the images take up more space on disk, but that’s something I can live with.
