Starting to enjoy these diary entries, only my second one.
I'm afraid to hack on projects at work, but I have nothing
better to do. Working on an ugly gnome clock, it's fun. I
also need to start work on the backend to a dating service
for my school, if I ever want to get it off the ground.
LWE is in a few weeks, I really want a laptop, I can't
justify dropping 1.5-2 grand on a laptop. I've been trying
to scorunge up a pentium laptop with a CD lately, with no
luck. Hey, if you've got a laptop you're willing to sell or
donate, please
contact me. I need to be able to do some mobile
hacking.
Gah, ripped the mobo out of my linux box last night. had to
deal with a windows box. No mail. Pissing me off. i woke
up, sat down at my desk, and stared at all the cards and
chips and memory on my desk. My case just has the HD's and
CDROMs in it now. BP6!. I can't wait. Getting it
today, install it tomorrow, hopefully 2.4 will like it
more. I'm only putting my IBM 20G HD on the ata66 channel,
everythign else is going on the ata33 channels.
Right, my dad told me to put all the cards on aluminum foil
when I asked him about a static free surface. Something
inside me says "BAD!". But my dad's a hacker from the atari
days. He's a hacker. Digital logic, eproms,
asemmbler, squeezing everything into tiny spaces, cool
shit. He did amazing stuff on the atari, all vision
training. 3D, random dot stereograms, and some stuff
involving the vertical blanking that I don't fully
understand. So I'll trust him, he's still better with
ahrdware than I am. I jsut don't like the idea of cards on
metal, dunno why.
Time to go code pixels!
