Sick Day
October 1st, 2004 by owenamDon’t worry; I’m OK. Just needed a quick breather.
David received a book in the mail today — with his face on the cover. America, meet (one of) Carleton College’s new Academic Catalog cover boy(s). Quite a step up from a 1″x1″ thumbnail on the back.
Also: hello from the big, bad, and theoretically unstable world of Gnome 2.8. All in all, I’d say its pretty good stuff. Evolution feels much more solid; new system tools are cool but scary (GUIs for things like init scripts make me uneasy); browsing Windows networks is now stupidly simple — even when “Windows network” means a 5-year-old desktop-cum-headless server sitting in the corner running Samba on Gentoo.
