Misc

I haven’t felt like writing lately, but I have to mention a few things.

My graphics card died this morning. SUCK. I have an old ATI card in my computer for the time being. Hopefully I can get a replacement soon, I miss my 1600×1200 dearly and the whole machine is slowed down by this old card :\ Will probably just pick up the cheapest agp geforce I can find.

My cousin Melissa came up recently! She was taking a road trip to New England and dropped by to spend breakfast with Michael and I. It was nice to see her, she got us caught up on family news and everything before heading our around noon.

I’m the new Debian Maintainer for WebCalendar! I’ve been working with my co-maintainer on it for a few weeks, it was a bit of a mess when we adopted it. There were 16 open bugs, half of them we closed, a few sent upstream and a couple more to be closed in our next released. The learning curve is pretty intense, but my co-maintainer is pretty awesome and my sponsor from dglog is still available to answer all my dumb questions. I’ve also hopped on the debian-mentors mailing list. I’m getting better at navigating all the Debian documentation, but it all seems a bit disjointed.

Beer! Tried a few new ones over the past few weeks. I was really impressed Victory Sapphire Bock I had on tap at Victory recently. It’s a hoppy bock that has this amazing clean finish. Sly Fox has a new ale on top, the Amarillo IPA that I enjoyed and kicked myself for not bringing a growler with us to the brewery that day! They also have the Sly Fox Helles Bock on tap, which was my favorte Bock until the Sapphire came along – will have to get myself a pint of that next time we’re up at Sly Fox.

And now I’m off to pick up my dinner from the pizzeria up the street.
