Wind Me Up (let me go)

  • Caught Madagascar at La Premiere in Hoyts. I can heartily say that Gold Class at Village is heaps better. On DVD, got to see Farenheit 9/11, which makes me wonder about Bush, and all.
  • Walked the 1,000 steps. It was surprisingly nice. Been up to Mt. Dandenong a lot, but never ever went on this trail. Napped, and then karaoke later with a bunch of friends - boozie took over.
  • Because I tried hard to put off any writing for the MyOSS Magazine, I ended up doing some Fedora package stuff. Sorted out gaim-guifications, MagicPoint. Trying to include xwrits. My livna foo is sorted, gtkpod is updated.
  • Spent most of today lazing around in her house. All was fine, till dinner time when I felt like punching his face. The gall. My stupidity for going, I guess.
  • I got my Tungsten C back. Its a nice, brand new unit, with everything “just working”. I’m impressed with Palm’s customer service, being the first time I’ve had to use them, ever. FileZ is useful to beam your old DatebookDB/AddressBookDB/MemoDB over to the new unit. pssh is an SSH client worth checking out. One annoyance is that when the Writing Area is enabled (grafitti all over the screen), the NotePad doesn’t work - is there some way to disable the writing area just on a per-application basis?
  • Wah, Base is now component-ized. (iz#46898) So its now an optional install, and OpenOffice.org requires no JRE. I can imagine this pleasing Windows users somewhat, but all sane free Linuxes are probably going to include the gcj stack, and get things going, right?
