Me++

Today is my Birthday. Tonight I celebrate by going out and eating half a cow. Good day for me, not so good for the cow. Currently, I am sat here typing this trying to get my feeble mind to compute whether or not it is in fact my 34th Birthday. I know I'm only 33 years old, but I figure that Birthdays work like arrays and actually start at 0.

Anyhow, Becky very kindly bought me 2 new tyres for my motorised bicycle, a new Technicals jacket and 2 DVDs — 300 and Re-Animator deluxe 2 disc edition. I've been thoroughly spoiled :)

    Happy birthday.

    A pity that I read this one day too late (via quebecos.com). I shall try your distro, which looks nice and light. Linux has become the most creative virtual community (and widely anti-Bush Klan, isn´t it?) and a counter model to the oldish selfish model… A kind of 'get from giving rather than stealing'. Nowadays the soviets seem to have all gone west… Funny world. Cheers.

    I came across your blog via Planet Openbox a few weeks ago, and have been filtering through the posts for info useful to me. As you can tell, I just hit January. Thanks for your effort :-)

    Anyway, it was my 33rd birthday last year and I found the best approach was to reckon my age in hex. Gives you a warm fuzzy feeling to be 0x21 again. Of course the corollary is that this year I count in octals and achieve the transcendental number ;-)

    @Dave: I have one word for you, "geek!" :D

Debian - The Universal Operating System

Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian uses the Linux kernel (the core of an operating system), but most of the basic OS tools come from the GNU project; hence the name GNU/Linux.

Debian GNU/Linux provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 18733 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine. Read more...
