Wow! Two years since Beagle was first unleashed (geddit? unleashed, beagle? Oh, suit yourself!) on the world. Really honoured to be included in Joe’s list of contributors, especially being right next to Jakub (yes, I know that’s because it’s alphabetical). My contributions have been confined to a couple of lines of code so far (although …

Planet SUSE
Have switched all Blogger blogs to their Atom feeds rather than the FeedBurner versions on Planet SUSE. Congratulations to Chelsea on retaining the Premiership title. Just a pity it took billions of money cheated out of the Russian people to do it. You know that as long as Chelsea are backed by Abramovich they deserve …

Laptop
Latest situation on the laptop is that the repair was done, and it was working fine, but when the repair guy powered it on the next day it was back to how it was at the outset. Further investigations are being done and I should have an update on Tuesday. Have to say though that …

Loony Republicans
Many thanks to Linux Today for posting a link to this insane article by hard-right republican blogger “Shelley”. In it you can read the “truth” about how radical left-wing liberal (eeew, evil!) European and Chinese hackers (and I suspect it’s using that in the incorrect way[1]) have created it to undermine America. Read the dangerous …

The end for Labour?
Someone posed the question on LuBBs Alumni of whether the current round of cock-ups spells the end for the Labour government. Here is my response (originally posted on LA) It really could be the beginning of the end not for Labour, but for Blair[1]. Some of us really do care about affairs, because if someone …

Wednesday
Well, yesterday was the first Wednesday of the new term. Not normally something of significance except that this term we have no lectures on Wednesday and this early in the term I can’t really use that time to write the assignments. So, other than work out, what did I do with myself? Well, I helped …

I think I may die…
Jogged part-way into college today (like, about a minute’s worth) and then used the mini-gym for about 20 minutes. I’m so out of shape it’s not funny. Need oxygen…

Planet SUSE RSS
Have fixed the Planet SUSE RSS feeds. The 2.0 version is done now, the 1.0 will be done in the next update (which should be any minute because the system clock on that machine is off again).

Saturday
I love it when I find a ‘bug’ that I’m sure I can fix. Now if only I had a machine that I could actually build Beagle HEAD on. Been thinking a bit about the openSUSE 1 CD install project that’s looking a little defunct at the moment (especially the GNOME one) and how neat …
