Instant Dub
Chekc out the flash thingy at the bottom of the page.

mmm, cranes

Looks like I made it onto Federico’s
web log. Cool.

Talking to jbj makes my brain hurt.

Staring at the new new list of stuff to rewrite and pondering actually
drawing out the deps and tsort’ing them again. That proved
helpful last time.

Of course, as deadlines approach, I start thinking about all
the other stuff I need to update. The Japan Air website,
my
system tuning page (and http://linuxperf.nl.linux.org/
too for that matter).

I don’t really have as much interesting info for the system tuning
stuff anymore though, since I haven’t done tech support
in a long time. There does seem to be some increasingly
common “scaling” questions that come up I should probabaly
write good answers for (increasing available mount points seems
to be coming up a lot these days). Maybe later.

blippy.

Looks like I’m rerewriting large chunks of the up2date code base
again. It probabaly needs it, but still.

From trianglerock.com

Japan Air are from Winston-Salem, and the various samples I just
listened to on the internet veered between a heavy dubby Krautrock
vibe & a more contemporary trip-hop thing. I have
no idea what they look, smell or sound like live, however.

Hmm, interesting.

More progress on the back port. Find a weird little dep solving
bug that should never get triggered in the wild (a weird chroot
install hit it). Fix it anyway.

It’s a great day Go the Japan Air Show dont you
think? It is Friday Go the the Japan Air Show after all.

More deadlines. Yay.

Oh yeah, everyone should go to the Japan Air show at
Humble Pie saturday night.

think I griped and bitched and complained enough that the former
webhoster is going to give me a full refund. Lets see, didnt
meet the 99.9% uptime promise for the year in a little under
three weeks. Lost all the daily backups. Never made a tape
backup. Had a server compromised because the machine
was out of date (probably pisses me off slightly more than
most folks…). No notification of the outage. Whined like
a 5 year old when I asked about the server status. I
think that adds up to a full refund.

Code backport hit a few snags.

Japan Air show on Saturday at Humble Pie. Everyone
should go. All the cool kids are doing it. Theres going
to be balloons and face painting. And cranes. And
all the fruit rollups you can eat before you vomit.

Argh, I cant belive I’ve got to write that content
for the third time.

attempting to move www.japanairband.com to the third web host now.
This is such fun. Currently signed up for a month at three different
web hosters. Playing the field so to speak.

More weird code merges. This time backporting new features to
old code bases. I think I got lucky and was able to move
to an almost up to date code base for the backport. So at least
it’s not weird chunks of new code kluged into the old ugly
code base.

grumble. The webhosters are still being
dumbasses. Awesome.

And I need to find a new apartment and move. In
the next three months or so. Kind of tired
of apartment complexes, and dont really want to
go though the hassle of a condo/townhouse/house.

Somewhere relatively close to NCSU would be
preferred, but far enough away to be away from
students ;-> Any one know of a cool place to
live?
