Ubuntu 9.10

Posted by Dave Eddy on Oct 27 2009

New Ubuntu coming out really soon, not entirely sure what it will offer that will benefit this server (hosting this site!) but you can be sure I will be upgrading!

I have to thank Mike for Linux. Two years ago I knew next to nothing about Linux, all I knew about computers was how to add songs to my iTunes on my Windows machine, and how to load StarCraft. Mike told me to check out Linux, and told me to install Ubuntu, and I have been loving it ever since! I made the full switch (ditched XP except for, coincidently, iTunes and StarCraft) and used primarily Ubuntu. It was a big day changing the GRUB boot order to Ubuntu first, Windows second.

Even though I use a Mac, I love it because it is Unix based and can natively connect to all of my Linux boxes through ssh. It was something about 2 years ago that was a good time for me, I decided to use Linux and learn the dvorak keyboard, and I followed both through until the end and didn’t quit.


Adium Theme

As you may or may not know, I am a Mac user, and as such I use adium as my AIM client. I just finished editing this theme to match my bash profile.

My Adium Theme

When the windows shows old conversations from the chat history, it shows the current path as /var/log/, and when the chat is current the current path is ~/.


Dvorak Assist

Posted by Dave Eddy on Oct 22 2009

Check out dvassist if you are a dvorak user and you are using Windows. Since I use dvorak as my keyboard layout I can’t type on qwerty to save my life, I use this program whenever I come in contact with a Windows computer. The program is light-weight, at only ~500kb, and it just sits in your task bar and allows you to toggle between your current layout and the dvorak layout!

For those of you who want to check out the dvorak keyboard layout, this site has a lot of good information. On qwerty I would max out my typing at ~40WPM, now with dvorak I can hit speeds of +115WPM.

Check out the typing test.

New website is up using Drupal!

Now you can:

  • Click the music link on the left to access my music that was on my old my website.
  • Click the Webcam link to see a live webcam stream from my apartment (login required).
  • Click the iSight link to see pictures that were taken with my Mac’s camera and uploaded to my server (thanks to ZenPhoto!)
