Incase anyone cares, here is a screenshot of my desktop. And another. And it would take a sadder person to care what all the software is. Its GNOME running on XFree86 4.0, under linux (2.2.17) with the openwall security patches, the USB backport and stegFS. The window manager is sawfish. The applications you can see running are X-Chat, XMMS (winamp clone), Gnome Midnight Commander (a file manager) - and Code crusador, you can see me doing some typical programming work on ScaraOS :)

It's another day when im awake during the day, due to having slept during the night, im not sure i can get used to it. Feels odd. I woke up to kilroy, lots of people talking about how lonely they are. Which put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. One thig i have noticed, there is lots of good looking older women on TV, by older I mean like 25-35 kinda age. I'm watching a DIY show right now, and the very nice presenter is wearing a tight purple top, showing off her small breasts and pointy nipples. She's probably a lesbian anyway. God I hate daytime TV with a venom, and thse talentless DIY people annoy me too, they're not even in the same league as those guys on the shopping channels, or discovery daytime TV, "old yankee workshop" - that was good. DIY? - these guys could't whack themslevs off without a booklet from ikea, pah

Bah, mobile phones piss me off, EVERYONE has one, and they all think they are the best thing since, er, i dunno, normal phones. All they ever seem to do is beep, and ring, and annoy me. And so many adverts on TV that try to make me think that owning a mobile phone will earn me friends, and the respect of my peers, and adoring gazes from pre-menstrual models, who are probably all lesbians anyway. pah. All my lemsip has run out, bah, just as I was developing a dependancy, I'll have to replace the habit with haribo or something. Hmm, not got any of that either. Oh you gotta check out lydia's "sex hair" - very sexy :)

hahahahah, I have just seen one of the funniest things ever. Boyzone, the boy band (nice name) all split up or something, propably cos of some argument about makeup, anyway I dont follow this pop music fucking crap. However, there was 2 members of boyzone, i dunno, sporty, and leprechaun (honest, it's spelt like that, i looked it up in a dictionary). They never did any singing really, and always stood at the back and said nothing during interviews. Now that they have split up, and the other two members are doing stupid solo, crappy fucking retarded pop music worthless, throwaway, disposable pop crap 'music' - these two guys have decided they just want to take the piss, GREAT! They have released a single, a cover of milli vanilli's 'girl you know its true' - HAHAHAHAHA. They were on the big breakfast this morning too, and they literally called britney spears a muff diver, and told us all that A1 like it up the back passage! - it was SO funny, I think they rock.

Compiled linux 2.4.0-test10 kernel a few minutes ago, its very nice, a bit nippier than 2.2, but I shan't be using it full time yet. No stegFS patch yet, and no openwall patch either. I was glad cos the USB device driver I wrote worked on it too. While it was compiling I did something I haven't done in a while, I leaned on my windowsill and stared out at the world. It was daytime, I haven't really seen much of daytime in the last month or two. I'd forgotten how much I like it. I noticed a big tree over the road from me, and I noticed it was winter, the tree actually looked autumnal, bright orange leaves, the colour of rust. The wind was a gentle whirl, and the sun was out, and the ground damp from a recent downpour (I don't even remember it raining). I felt like going for a walk, just to feel that familiar sensation of the winter air grating against the back of my throat. but I didn't. My sleep pattern is fucked, im awake all day, and as it gets dark, im falling asleep. I still feel a bit funny from having had flu or some other kind of miscelaneous non-life-threatening pathogenic infection. Lucky i still have lemsip, 2 sachets left, think im gonna have one now. Those puppies pack 650mg of parecetamol, I think thats more than asprin pills have nowadays. And you can only buy 6, or 16, or 60 asprin at a time legally, I forget exactly how many, but its not a lot.

Woke up this morning with a bastard of a sore throat, turns out my insane mother had opened all the doors and windows in the house because it was "boiling", for christs sake, thats how accidents happen! Some of outside, gets inside, and well, frankly, I might as well be outisde! and I have an aversion to outside! especially during the day. Gah, my eyes hurt now too, in order to have some scrambled eggs for breakfast, I had to eat it downstairs, where the afore-mentioned insane mother had opened all the curtains, letting in "sunlight" - that stuff is carcinogenic for gods sake! Watched a fly-on-the-oh-so-annoying-bandwagon...er...wall daytime TV thing about a hospital. Some child started feeling the breasts of the (very good looking) presenter, and as it was live, it was highly amusing, to watch her ignore it, hahahaha. She was probably a lesbian.

Scaramanga's Log: Stardate Friday....point taken Just got in from a whole evening spent doing IRL(tm) things, went for a meal, watched a vid, and had some alcohol. Also in attendance was bAckline, dnr aka toasty aka martin, stephen, and james. Had a thouroughly good laugh much crap was spoken, and many laughs had all round. All five of us put together didn't manage to pollish off a whole "Crazy Naan". Probably a good job, something would have exploded or ruptured, and we would all have been injured or immobilised somehow. `` Got the chance to see some pictures of stephens amazing swolen head, which he got, in a fight with two sailors and a camel, in cairo....honest...he didnt fall out of a window or anything stupid like that...honest. We even managed to impress some chicks in the pub with his pictures of pyramids, and stuff. I think they were lesbians. Anyway, I'm far too tired to be writing this, I'm gonna have a lemsip and go to bed.

Scaramanga's Log: Stardate Thursday....point 2 Been reading all the other authors logs, and they are really pretty good. I hate them all, bastards. I've had flu or somrthing for the last coupla days. I just feel really tired and dizzy all of the time, not dizzy in the blonde sense of the word, just really unsteady. Which could be potentially dangerous for a man of my...uh...calibre. If you have ever spent much time with me, you will know how much i hate marketing weenies, and management types, and all the anally retentive things they do. Infact I'm almost anally retentive about spotting the anally retentive things they do, which cant be healthy...for anyone. Anyway, one tell-tale sign of a marketing weener, (apart from anal retentivness, and small penises, and stomach ulcers) is the use of Bi-Capitalisation, this is where one joins 2 words together, and makes the first letter of each, a capital. Kinda like GeekWare, or ActiveX, or whatever. Oh yes, I was going somewhere with this - look at the menu on the left, nearly everything is BiCaptitalised(tm) I suspect bAckline is actually a closet marketing weenie, I bet he secretly whacks off while thinking about delegating and prioritsing his primary action targets as to meet corporate positioning strategies. Or maybe he just had to do it, to make that column pad out, and ensure that each link never split on to 2 lines. Anyway, makes me wonder about what real conclusions you can draw from a persons use of BiCapitalisation(tm). And also what conclusions you can draw from the amount of time i spend writing about it. Damn. Best thing about illness? drugs..oh, and lemsip too. Lemsip, strepsils, and taking random ammounts of random drugs from the medicine cabinet.

"..In a world of hairdressers and rednecks talking about how cool their AOL accounts are, its good to know that I know UNIX. When upper management says we need to create an action item to delegate invasive marketing tasks, its good to know that I know UNIX. In a world where an admin is rendered useless when the ball in his mouse has been taken out, its good to know that I know UNIX. UNIX is SuperBad." Quote from www.attrition.org Advisory: Potential Denial of service attack for windows. Systems Affected: Anyhting running the famous windows OS, win95/98/NT/2k Problem: The problem exists in the lower hardware levels of the system. An attacker could potentially remove the ball from the mouse device, thus rendering the sytem useless. Drawbacks: The attacker needs physical access Workaround: Invest in an optical mouse (although read CERTs tipex advisory). Fix: Install a UNIX based OS. The vendor (Microsoft) have not responded to my emails, and at this point, have not issued a patch.

Just woke up, had a terrible dream that someone had installed windows2000 on my PC. argh! What is it with the odd dreams I've been having. Last night it was a paranoid lord-of-the-flys-esque thing, where gangs of evil children tied me up, and were all going to kill me. Children are all evil. Leaves me afraid to go to sleep tonight, I'll end up having a horrible ordeal with Vanessa Feltz or something. If it was Fern Britton (phwoaaaar) I wouldn't mind, maybe I'll just try and think really hard about 'ready steady cook' before I go to bed.
