I really like bash.org. However there is no RSS feed available for the latest quotes. This makes me sad. However after a 15 minute php session (which was more than enough php for me) it is working.

Checkout my bash.org rss feed. It updates every 15 minutes. Enjoy

When I’m in Amsterdam I’m hooked up to the internet trough Surfnet. A network that connects all the universities but also takes care of students. However the network is owned by surfnet they do not maintain it here. That is done by some oter company. So now you know a little bit how it is organized around here.

So 2 days ago something was wrong with the network. Don’t ask me what but it just was. All of the sudden no 10 mbit line. No it seemed like I was back at my old 56k6 modem. Damn. Pages not loading instantly. Man that is a pain in the ass. I had totally forgotten what it is like. That grabbing the source code for a random package can actually take more tan 1 minute or so :S

Well it is fixed now and I hope it won’t happen again.

When I check out my stats provided by my webhost I used to have more Windows users than Linux users. But today It changed and I have more linux users. Wich well. Makes me proud. I don’t know how else to say it.

A few days ago I came across this. It shows god in his shell creating the world. I showed it to some friends and they really liked it so I figured I’d share it with you all. Maybe you already know it, Maybe you don’t.

So after 3 weeks of sun I returned Saturday from Italy/France. It really was a nice hollyday. Saw some nice cities (Milan, Verona, Venice, Monaco). And of course relaxed. One of these days I’ll post a larger story since this is the first time I get on-line in 3.5 weeks… that must be the longest time ever since I first got on-line… So why did it take so long? Well when I’m on holiday I can live without my Internet. Now on this hollyday we only saw 1 internet cafe that was over crowded so I also decided not to post on my blog. Then when we arrived at my girlfriends parents Saturday there was no internet. The reason? Lighting stroke 3 houses from theres into the ground and trough the internet/television cable the modem/router got fried. But with that also a lot of cable connectors. And the network card in the computer. So after 2 days of rewiring everything. It was finally time to get back. I’ll return to you when I have read all the 2800 emails…. :S

So yesterday I spend half of my day under the house. Reconnecting the cables. But now the whole house is connected again and the internet is fast, just as I like it. Grabbing distfiles at 1.6 Mb/sec at the moment so that really makes my day. The DNS has also changed so everything should work again..

First of all for you people that just think what a weird title. You should read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Really read that book…

Having sad that. The weather is to damn nice! Thank god i have a laptop so I can sit outside while working on the school projects. But the nice weather also has a downside… It makes you damn thirsty! I have to work tonight but else i would now open my first cold beer.. Tomorrow i will..

If it is due to the weather or that my laptop hard disk is just failing on me i do not know. But all of a sudden i get weird errors. Files that can’t be removed. Incorrect Inodes.. Seems like it is time to run a deep fsck on my laptop again.. But i just kind of have the feeling that my harddisk is slowly dying.. Now I still have warranty (asus gives you 2 years of warranty…) So if it has to break i hope it does before september…

But aside from the warranty. Except running fsck I do not know what to do… It is also weird that it is just some invalid inodes etc. Since dma etc still works. I did a check on the temperature of the harddisk and it is about 38 degrees so I would think that is not to bad. (since the CPU is around 50 degrees).

Ah well. I’ll start backing up some stuff. Altough almost all code is in subversion repo’s, all audio is also on the server and all mail is on an other server (i love imap)… Now lets pray that the problem will solve itself…
