My Titanium Powerbook power supply has died. I think it died because the power supply was plugged in to the wall, but the computer wasn’t plugged in to the power supply. The power supply all of the sudden wouldn’t power the computer, and it was pretty hot when I detached it to the wall.
Now I’ve got to call 1-800-APL-CARE and get them to send me another one. We did go by Southpoint to see if they’d give me a new one, but in order to get repairs from an apple store they have to physically verify … Continue Reading
I am involved with UCSB Capture the Flag computer security competition. I am on the NCSU team, helping with the defensive aspect. Wish me luck, and feel free to give me any advice. Via email, that is.
We decided to put FreeBSD 5.1 on Lauren’s computer, a VPR Matrix 185A5. Previously, she was running Red Hat 9. We switched because the firewire driver would crash a lot, ACPI isn’t turned on in Red Hat 9, and the wireless support was flaky. Also, it would take me FOREVER to install any new functionality because of the authoritarian nature of the Red Hat Network’s list of packages and the sketchiness of “found” RPMs.

Heck, you can still route mail through UUCP or FAX!

Seriously, folks, there is something wrong with me. I was sitting around doing homework the other night, and I thought to myself “Man, I wish I knew LISP so I could make EMACS display the type declaration of whatever is under the cursor while I’m editing C code.” This thought percolated, and when mixed with this usenet posting led me to wonder “What language would I choose if I were to write an extensible programmer’s editor like EMACS, but different?” I charged my thought-imp with the task of running pell-mell through the dusty records-room of my brain, sorting through the list of programming languages that I know or have heard about, and for some reason it returned clutching “Forth” in its filthy pincers. I clearly don’t know what I’m doing.
