Yet another useless post

Friday, January 12th, 2007

And no, not on this blog, but on the ‘net in general.
Apparently I’ve been tagged in something named “Blog tagging”, which is just another form of these emails you recieve now and then that has a number of questions that you should answer and send on to all your friends. In this case I’m supposed write five things that most people don’t know about me, and then tag five other people. But since I’m “boring” I’ll just write one thing:
1. I never liked those messages, and rarely answer them (if I most oftenly just reply to the sender), because even though the thought behind them is quite a good one, the way it’s done isn’t a very good one (and no, I haven’t got a better idea of how to do it :P).

And for the same reason (and maybe because I’m a bit lazy too) I’ll just tag three other people:
hetzz, LadyFrost, and ozamosi.

(And now I also broke Tim’s estimate on how long it would take for everyone to get tagged, not much, but still ;))

New server

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007

I have just finished installing gentoo on my second server. Hopefully I will soon be able too move this site and all the others I’m hosting to it. Soon is in this case defined as when I’ve installed all the needed software (e.g. apache, mysql, mail server and so on).
When done things will hopefully work a bit smoother thanks to the better hardware (A P3 at 1GHz as opposed to a Celeron at 435Mhz).

On a side note I might add that there seems to be a bug in the init scripts that come with the current gentoo base system (it cannot find the dhcp client even though it is installed), but an upgrade of the baselayout package (emerge -uav baselayout) fixes it.
