I was going through the games section on Synaptic package manager and looking for a clone of the game Worms.
I ended up coming across this game called Hedgewars which is allot like Worms and haven't been able to quite playing it.
I'm not much of a gamer but once in a blue moon I find a game that I really really like and get addicted to playing it
for weeks on in then eventually forget about it or lose interest in it. I have a feeling this one will be different though.
:D

TEASER BELOW
So I noticed that a couple of the phpbb sites I ran all of a sudden got attacked by large amounts of spam. I found this interesting because it happened to a couple sites and we had never gotten any spam before. I went into IRC and it turns out that a lot of people have been under attack all of a sudden. I am currently looking into a way to get recaptcha working on phpbb3, and it's my hope that, that would remedy the issue.
So yeah I tried 9.04 but it really didn't turn out well. It basically crashed X and dropped me into command line. So yeah I think I will try it when the beta comes out.
So yeah apparently Aplha 3 of Ubuntu 9.04 came out so I have decided to try it out. One of two outcomes are going to going to happen. One it will fail horribly and I will cry, or two I will rock and I will rave about it.
So yeah I started a LUG for people living in Marathon County Wisconsin. If you are one of these people check it out: http://maralug.org/ If not feel free to ignore this post.
So recently Dreamhost gave me unlimited bandwidth and storage so I decided I would use bashpodder and cron to set up a podcast mirror. I am using chess's version of bashpodder so it organizes by show name. If you would like your podcast added to the mirror email me at alex@slightlyunstable.org. Check out the mirror here: http://slightlyunstable.org/podcasts/
I was thinking about the current Software Freedom Law Center lawsuit against Cisco for their GPL violations. I believe that until Cisco complies to the GPL we should boycott all of there products. This includes Linksys. This will actually effect me because until I heard this story I was planning to buy a Linksys router but I feel that I can wait until they decide to comply. Thoughts?
