Browse your filesystem in 3D

I guess we all remember Jurassic Park, and especially one feature of this movie: The “Unix-system” with that cool 3D file-browser. Well that file-browser was SGI’s 3D File System Navigator, which also helps us to know what that “Unix-system” really was, Irix. For everybody who also wants something like this on his box I’d suggest […]

Curly Braces are Damn Useful Things

Warning: WP_Syntax::substituteToken(): Argument #1 ($match) must be passed by reference, value given in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-syntax/wp-syntax.php on line 383

LFS and the Hurd

I’m currently trying out LFS again. I’m using BLAG (basically FC5) as the base, and I’m reminded once again at how slow doing things with source is. I hear people complain about how slow YUM is, but compared with using source AND using all the test kits it is extremely fast. In a few days […]
