I woke up at 5 a.m., but I was so cold that I had to crawl back into bed, and even though I kept waking up, I didn’t get up until 2:30 p.m. In the morning, before I gave up and stayed in my bunk, I was reading on DSD, but I didn’t find what …

Lately I decided to do something for my teeth. I had already bought an expensive toothpaste, but I was still brushing with the hardest toothbrush there is – the most ordinary Tesco one. Combined with the Paradontax paste, my teeth and gums hardly bled anymore, but it still wasn’t right, because it also hurt. After …

I woke up at 10 a.m. After a sleepless night, when I went to bed at around 6 in the morning (it was already light outside), I sat down on the couch and kept working on that StatusesManager (there will be a separate article about it). Anyway, as usual I kept running off to do …

Last night I had a crazy idea – to try out W8 and its famous Metro. I found a download link and within 3 hours I had all 2.6GB at home. I looked over the W8 HW requirements, and the only HDD I had offered less than 16GB. The only free partition had 12.3GB. In …

I got up at around 9:00. Until noon I was on the PC. At 10:30 I texted Martin that I was awake. Among other things, I turned on G+ for the first time in ages and posted 3 updates there. I was surprised that it is pretty lively again :-). Then I started getting ready …

Not long ago, exactly a week ago on March 3, my lamp broke. It was the one exkazatel gave me when he found out that I was suffering from a lack of light in my room. It all started after I woke up. I thought mim had been in and switched the lamp off, but …

Since I already have more than enough blogs and domains and don’t feel like starting a new one, I’ll just put this here. Don’t read the older posts; for one thing, all I ever managed to write was when I got up and that I slept in my clothes :-(. That’s pretty much the only …

I clicked the “Install” button at 16:35. By 14:35 a message was already shining at me saying the installation was done, so it was really lightning fast. While the installation was still running, I figured out the reason why I had always given up on working with Linux. It was because you can’t type programming …

I’m heading into town. First 4.5 km to the train, then 3 km by train. Of course I get caught by the conductor I don’t get along with. Last time, when I was riding just one stop and told her I’d get off, she started yelling at me to hand over my ID card and …

Next to the phone on the left are the CDs I’m throwing away: Ubuntu Alternate installation, Vista Lite, Ubuntu, Slax, Damn Small Linux, Xubuntu, and drivers for the HP Deskjet F2100/F4100 Series. And speaking of which, HP really should name its drivers better. We’ve now had about our fourth HP inkjet printer, and each one …
