永遠放棄 OpenOffice
Posted on 2008-06-20 • (9)
我很天真,我很傻。
上星期開始,企圖真正用 OpenOffice 作為工作用途。結果花了整整一星期的時間(還沒有計算乘車和在家裏的時間),連弄個 presentation 的 template 都弄不到。
- 想將標題填色,no way。紋風不動。除非每張 slide 逐個逐個標題填色[......]
原來 ubuntu server 是這麼一回事

之前一直看到自己的 server log 投訴 slocate 找不到 /etc/updatedb.conf,原來大半個月都沒有做 file index。奇怪了一段時間,明明那個檔案本來還在,為甚麼會忽然在升級至新版本時清除了 (→ Hardy)。

因為有些東西想測試,早幾天在自己的伺服器裝了 snort,結果卻是被它玩了一頓。昨天看看 snort 寄給我的 mail,有大量 robots.txt access:

很久沒有那種找到知音的感覺了。雖然大多數內容都是諷刺或帶憤世嫉俗的語氣,但的確說出了許多 Linux 用家的心聲。以往也想過自己寫些甚麼的 (事實上也寫了兩篇稿給 LinuxPilot,但角度不同),但就是沒法谷着那一口烏氣去寫出來,要寫也寫不出那麼辛辣的英文語句。
不過找到臭味相投的人,都是多得 [......]

The art of file type identification
Posted on 2008-04-28 • (4)
Recently I’ve been working with maintainer of file(1) to merge in various file magic identification floating around on internet.

Games on … (ahem) … Linux
Posted on 2008-03-29 • (3)
Subscribing to HappyPenguin RSS feed might be an error. I just keep reading the same game descriptions over and over (and yawning). Finally, finding myself so bored, I decided to summarize the game descriptions. These patterns should fit more than half of all games listed in Happypenguin:
