  • Completing the cycle, time to revise
    Been busy two months, Shifting to banglore consumed most of the time. Anyway that also gave me a chance to recap on few things. This time of the year usually signifies an end for my personal calendar year. So it moslty goes into doing damage control for all the things i failed at, didn't do at all or badly missed on planning in the first place. This year is not an exception. Quick highlights : 1. I still suck at interpreted languages. Just cant get the hang of those, even though basic has...
  • Schumi yet again, trouble on the horizon this time tho.
    This must be his greatest year, 10 out 11 races one, this is sheer perfection. But day by day he has try to harder and harder it seems. Last time strategy change was a risc. And this time, surprise surprise!, Mclaren was breathing down his neck. Kimi did get the advantage of the safety car after the trulli's accident however. But this time he was _still_ there to take the chance when he was offered one. I think F1 will start becoming iteresting again. Just dying for the times when Schumi...
  • abhijit.adotout.net is finally up
    Good i got access to the space now. Quite a lot to be done though, hope will fill up the contents soon as per plan. The only thing i need now is time, which i am running really short of. The list of projects on the page is just tip of the iceburg, and none of those are finished for primetime. Let alone other 100 or so at the planning stage. *sigh*
  • Schumi does it again!!
    This was unbelievable, Alonso in front of him i thought the race was over before it began. As long as renault finished the race, i thought , its a sure win for the italian i said. Little did i anticipate the great jack's mind coupled with schumi's powerfull stance that the ferrari will take four pit stops. And not only just that but win the race on this extraordinary strategy. Not that they haven't done this before. But each time they come back and surprise you. And to add the finishing touch...

  • Knoppix RULES
    To void my previous post i have a great news today. Just yesterday i installed Knoppix3.4 on a friends IBM thinkpad and it rocks. I didn't imagine it will be this simple. I just put the cd in it boots up (i have to turn off acpi tho) I resize the ntfs partition (breeze with qtparted) and install linux. Done we are up and running kde. Only pieces not working on board are acpi and modem. I am sure both can be run with little hardwork ( we are back to the days when men were men and wrote their own...
  • Sorry state of linux
    This has been a week of dissappointment. I was just remembering the "old days". When i was frustrated with recent windows 95 and it was year 1997 :-). And the excitement when i discovered linux later few months (or is it years ?). it was redhat 6.2. Took me hour to install but its was worth it. it ran faster. it was more stable. kde 1.2 looked just way too cool, while gnome was the true gui with enlightenment as its default manger. but most important of all it ran happily on my old machine...
