(This is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use). 10 Apr 2000 » Beer and Babes. Enough said. Not a lot on the work front – crappy day. Managed to SQL stuff with the best of them. Commercial developers of the world – please take this free Clue(tm) *THWOK* and damn well get…
Advogato – 5 April 2000
(This is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 5 Apr 2000 » Sick as a doooooooog. There’s something floating around. Had an abortive attempt to go to work. Got there and nearly hurled on one of the managers. Got myself some anti-vomiting syrup from the chemist, and gagged some down. I’ll spare…
Advogato – April 4, 2000
(This post is from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 4 Apr 2000 » Woa! The diaries are getting out of control. Decided that coding the solution was the correct course of action. Defeated by the far too obvious solution that the GNOME anon cvs details are in the general FAQ and not in the…
Advogato – 3 April 2000
(This is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) Well, I got my new HFC cable modem installed today by fibbing extensively. I had to lie about the following things: I owned the place, that I was going to use NT 4.0 (as if 🙂 on Intel*, with their crappy SMC ethernet card,…

(This is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 1 Apr 2000 » Went to breakfast this afternoon, and saw a Very Weird Thing. The table next to me was occupied by what I thought was a guy and his teenage daughter. Nothing remarkable about that until they started holding hands about 10…

(This is re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 30 Mar 2000 » I managed to get reiserfs 3.6.3 to compile out of the box last night on Mr Alpha. Good work, fellas 🙂 There’s a small number of problems, and I’m expecting some oops’s once I load the sucker, but it’s compiled, and…
Advogato – 29 March 2000
(This is from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 29 Mar 2000 » Went home about 21.00 last night and downloaded and compiled 2.3.99pre3 on my Alpha. Eventually, I managed to find a set of config options that compiles with minimal warnings, and better yet links. If I cared enough about kernel development, I’d do…
Advogato – 28 March 2000
(This post is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 28 Mar 2000 » Worked until 23.30 last night. Too buggered to even look at the Alpha. Trying to figure out which of my PC’s will have the Wavelan card fitted. Solution: the quietest one so it stay in my bedroom. Adding mucho…

(This is re-posted from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 27 Mar 2000 » Working on adding all sorts of nifty paper sizes into pnm2ppa in auto-detect papersize and DPI stuff. Should be cool and allow us to silently drop support for paper size switches. Once that’s in, maybe I’ll convince the other guys that…
Advogato – 26 March 2000
(This is a re-post from Advogato, which I no longer use.) 26 Mar 2000 » Decided to have a weekend to myself for once. Had a big Friday night, involving much Guiness. Had breakfast early on Saturday for once, and then drove to Bondi for lunch with Dan and Ange. Bondi was as superficial as…
