Met Caleb Moore (of SVG
Flags fame) at SLUG on Friday night. We both commented on how nice is to
meet GNOME-world people “at home”. I am Jack’s cultural cringe.
Ben Martin (or monkeyiq, of libferris infamy) was
down in Sydney for a conference, so I got to meet him again. Encouraged him
to make GNOME people more aware of libferris […]

Some things I’ve seen in the past week or so that I have enjoyed… People are starting to talk about hard numbers when it comes to the Linux desktop.

in Sydney, it’s too fucking hot to think. It was 32°C yesterday, with
facial-hair-toasting breezes through the canyons of the inner city. The heat
has not contributed positively to my motivation or productivity.
As I […]
So much anger. I’m attempting to focus it productively, but every now and
then it’s falling between my better judgement and GNOME, and I start
thinking fuck-it-all thoughts. While GNOME feels like an enormous pressure
at the moment, it is not the source of most of my anger.
The company I work for has gone into receivership, which means I […]
spiv pointed out that Google Glossary is no longer just a
crazy hack, it’s now available on the main page by using
“define:<term>”. Such as, define:gnome.
Numbers one to four, baby! Yeah!
