It's been sitting there all this time...
Oct. 11th, 2004 02:16 amTotal geek post, by the way. Dull dull dull. You've been warned. ( Geek on! )
Why did I surrender the entire day to this task? Part of it was getting out of the house. Another part was taking away excuses for her failure to move onto a modern computer - she can now multitask properly. A major part was the hope that, if I got this going, I could remember what I like about Linux and get myself going.
I remember now: I like Gentoo. I like having only the stuff I want and have it all work. I like having the power without the bloat. I like to build lean machines and grant them the power to be left alone.
I feel potent again. I also feel tired again. Night, y'all.
