mid-20s crisis
i don’t know if this is specifically a gen X thing (or gen Y, or whateverthefuck us 20-somethings are considered), or if this is a phenomenon that predates our generation… i’ve noticed that there’s a period of time that almost everyone i know who’s my age has experienced. After college (or whatever they did instead…

ubuntu-fied weekend
so, jazzs3quence, how did you spend your weekend? much of it was spent restoring the data from the backup to the server. it seems the reason why it restored so quickly the first time was because it didn’t, actually. when stuff was missing, i noticed a lot of input/output errors trying to access my mounted…

server update, part deux
ssh – check ftp – check forums – check (no upgrade to phpbb3-RC1, however…apparently they don’t have an upgrade script from a previous beta release…and i tried just dumping the new files on top of the old ones and got a sql error…then again, there were other things going on so i might try that…

bjork – volta
bjork – volta it’s been growing on me, but it’s still not as listenable as i hoped. for me, bjork peaked around homogenic/selmasongs. there were two more albums (vespertine and medulla) which were pretty good, but not bjork’s best. then she did the soundtrack to drawing restraint. now i never saw the movie, and i’ve…

nin – year zero
nine inch nails – year zero i was frustrated by not getting this, like, the day after i ordered it from the lala store powered by newbury comics. however, i’ve been listening to it a lot since it did arrive, and i haven’t gotten tired of it yet. could be it’s because i still like…

recipe site update
i typed up a couple more recipes today. they still need to be tweaked to be fully egg/dairy-free, but they can be found in their unabridged state, atm. also, i found a printer-friendly view plugin, which i’m pretty happy with.

argh / bounce / yawn
*argh* (advisory: explicit geeking)– admitedly by the time i write this, i’ve lost most of my thunder on this particular subject….HOWEVER….i had a server down at work for 9 hours. the server was a win2k3 server that wasn’t pulling an ip address from dhcp, which is hosted on the unix server. the dmesg log on…
