Just thought this was kind of interesting.

Science!

Okay, not science. But just some Magic Rocks growing in my cube at work.
Anyone going to the Durham TechShop meetup tonight?
Attempting to run errands was a mistake. Glad I didn’t go into work today.
Reddit/digg etc seem to be dominated by posts about cults these days. I’m not sure if the scientology or the gtd folks scare me more. If I could figure out how to sell e-meters to productivity types, I could make a fortune. Maybe something once I clear off the todo list.
Motorcycle hill climbing on tv. Awesome. 220hp nitro burning dirt bikes. Be There!
Totally forgot about Henry Rollins being in town tonight. Enjoyed the spoken word/standup/storytelling gig I caught at Lincoln Theater a few years ago. “I’m a trekkie for King Crimson!”.
I don’t buy as many shoes as some people. But I ordered some shoes from Zappos last night at 10pm, and they were sitting outside the door this morning. Pretty impressive.
popcorn + ketchup == faux shrimp cocktail
also, this cold kind of sucks.
Seem to have picked up the cold that is going around. Nothing likes sneezes that make your shoulders and arms hurt.
Odd observation, if you make sweet tea with Earl Grey tea, it kind of tastes and smells like Fruit Loops.
The main day of the fudCON talks were today. Seemed to go pretty well. I pitched two sessions, one on OLPCs/Asus EEEs/ultraportables, and another on func.
The OLPC session was more of a meetup/get together than a talk, and seemed to go pretty well. Unfortunately, it got scheduled against the Fedora.tv/Vaniv/Percolote talk, so I missed that.
My real talk was func, and the talk seemed to go well. I tried to keep the slides pretty slim and lightweight, and breezed though them pretty fast, but I think it went okay. I didn’t seem to get any of the vaguely aggressive questions in the Q&A these sort of talks usually get, so I’ll take that as a win.
I’ll be at FudCon this weekend. What is FUDcon? It’s like a BarCamp but for Fedora nerds.
I’ll be helping with the presentation on Func. I’m writing the slides at the moment. Yay! Slides! If there is anything someone wants me to include (photo, reference, curseword, etc) let me know and I’ll see what I can sneak in. My slide presentation philosophy is “leave them confused”.
You may also know me from other slides and hackfests like cobbler, pulp, olpc, eee, vidpress, and wknc.
I finally got rid of my piece of crap car and got a new truck. 2008 Toyota Tacoma.
Nothing fancy, but it works.
Shopping for a new car makes the freshly born baby jesus cry.
In other news, I’ve had an awesome Christmas. Much gift giving and receiving.
My OLPC XO arrived yesterday. I’m not entirely sure what I’m going to do with not one, but two tiny laptops. But what the hell, toys.
On that note, I noticed that sunday’s Simpsons featured an ad for the OLPC G1G1 program. Which is odd, since the program ended two weeks ago.
Christmas shopping is probably ~80% done at this point. Which puts me far a head of my usual status at this point.
The Eee PC seems pretty cool. It seems to do what it claims.
I need to figure out some sort of shared storage and backup system for my personal machines. I have a desktop, and soon to be 4 laptops[1]. And I have stuff randomly spread across all of them. I need to at least consolidate the photo storage. And meaningful backups would be handy. Offsite network accessible storage would be nice as well.
[1] apparently, I have a problem
