what bs. RIM Wins Wireless E-mail Patent. of course, we all know that software patents are wrong already, right?
i want a Rubber Track Conversion for my 4×4! oh wait, i don’t have a 4×4. or a car for that matter. never mind.
not much being posted recently. haven’t been doing much web surfing and all that. mainly just doing some relaxing over the past week. i’ve actually been getting up pretty early this past week, getting normal amounts of sleep, and then just watching some movies and doing some cleaning and all that. i’m going to be getting back into gear next week, getting some programming done and reviewing my espanol, which i’ll be taking at smc this summer so i can actually get my piece of paper. that’s always nice to have.
hmm, that sucked. apparently linux reserves the last 10% of inodes (that’s hard drive space to normal folks) for root only. oh yeah, and nsd was fux0red in my rc.local. oopsies. my bad
i was looking for some info on mhz pccards, so i was at 3com’s site, and i was pretty darn impressed by the site design, but also a bit surprised at how… aggressive it was design dhtml-wise. looks like they just use a switch to not have any of the hierarchical menus for ns. which of course, means none for mozilla as well.
looks like u2 will be back in the us in fall 2001. i’ll definitely be there.
just doing some catchup, since i’m spending some time online anyway. i learned vi over the past week. it’s not that bad once you remember some of the commands, heheh.
also got allergy tested, and it turns out i’m really allergic to dust mites, like twice the reaction to dust mite allergen than the histamine control. also allergic to: tree, weed, grass pollen, mold, fungus, cockroach, and cat and dog hair. heheh, no wonder my sinuses are always inflamed.
hmm, i could surf all day w/ my wall projection, or i could finish unpacking, set up my .forwards, and then start replying to the several hundred emails i have let accumulate over the past weeks…
<gloat>ahh, who needs a monitor when you have an epson data projector throwing a 6 foot wide screen on your living room wall.</gloat> i’ll be sorry to see this thing go next week. until then, i’ll be watching a lotta movies. 😉
