Peter Murphy – Just For Love

Uh about that comment on yesterday’ entry, I KNOW there are ways to work around starting with a graphical login.. anything is possible until redhat closes their source %D And I know how to use runlevels… I have runlevel 4 dedicated to Unreal Tournament %D! (it’s basically just runs the fewest processes needed for UT to run, and when i “startx” it launches right into the game) Thanks for the advice tho, it might help some one %)

So I was considering switching to Debian when I get my new proc and mobo.. but oh man, Myk got Gentoo running on his box and it’s SO cool. It’s got something that’s a lot like debian’s apt system, but instead of getting the precompiled binaries in the .deb packages, it downloads the source, and then installs it according to preferences you set up during the first compile of gentoo (so it compiles according to stuff like processor type and speed…). It also solves dependencies (like apt)… And so in essence it combines be beauty of BSD’s port system and debian’s easy install process. So it looks like in a few months I’ll be switching to that instead… I have no intention of upgrading redhat in that time.. 7.2 has treated me nicely, but anything more than this is far too bloated…

Heh, so I cleaned the kitchen today… I worked on cleaning for like an hour (it wasnt really cluttered, we are pretty neat…). Cleaned the whole stove, washed the floor, washed all the cabinets.. and at the end I looked and it didn’t really look that much better! Gah… I mean _I_ will know that it’s clean, but I am sure when Myk comes home all he will notice is my bleach smelling hands, arg… I also did a little work on my wheel of time section of my site, not much work, I think i’ll do some more this weekend, actually get some CONTENT… oh content! %)

Hmmm so i decided I am easily annoyed by people doing things other than chatting in a chat room, when they involve lots of color anyway. I thought at first it was only when I am in lousy moods, but it’s not %) I wish color had never been invented for IRC! Or at least never made so easy in mirc… I look in one of the chat rooms I chat in and its a huge mess of mp3 scripts, quote machines, and away messages. Is that really needed? Granted quote machines are funny, sometimes… but at one point it was just a whole screen of this stuff! Gah… I am glad we banned all of this in #13thHour %) We are known to be Nazi’s about that. One girl even stopped coming ’cause I asked her to turn off her mp3 script… strange, is it so very hard? Heh…

*wanders off*
