Geeking

I forgot my keys at home today... I realized it when I was halfway to work. Didn't want to go back, if Ranc had left already it would be wasting my time. So I just figure I'd walk around a bit after work, until he comes home. But no, my luck would have it otherwise. Today is the day where he's going out to eat with his work... so he's home late. Fuck it!.... I'll try and ruffle up a friend, see if I can hang out with him for a while. Damn keys. Left my phone as well. I dunno why I do that. It's like a brainlapse. I wasn't even in a hurry or anything. Oh well.

On a seperate note, I'm laughing my ass off from this clip. I mean, wtf...

I decided, this weekend, that I might as well try out an installation of Linux on my box. I've messed around with FreeBSD quite a bit back in the days, but mostly as a server based software, and since I always let too much time pass between sessions, I kept forgetting valuable things. I've been meaning to set up a unix box for some time at home, but haven't had a good enough box to try it out on. Since gaming is sort of losing it's appeal to me (perhaps it's just a phase), I decided... why not just install it on my primary (and best) box. So I did. So far everything is working out fine. I've a hard time installing gfx drivers, but I got them sort of working... (ATI x1600 with Ubuntu 6.10 if anybody out there has experience). 

It's nice to mess around with it again, but it's a little hard. Things are different than FreeBSD, so I'm a total n00b here :) Fun tho.

Well... today I finally decided to uninstall StarWarsGalaxies from my box.. a full year after I stopped playing it. I know I should've removed it long ago, but I just couldn't bring myself to it. It probably sounds really geeky, but it was pretty close to me, and helped me through rough times, so I didn't wanna let go. But I've come to the conclusion, that it's for the best... besides I need the harddisk space :p

SWG, thanks for the good times, sorry SOE fucked you over. Here's to you!
