God, Windows is really beginning to piss me off. So, in my absence, it would seem that Microsoft has started tricking people into installing software that forces them to validate their installation of Windows before receiving any further updates. Fucking bastards.
Damn. Only three hours of sleep? That fucking sucks. I'm not even tired, either. So, here I am, wasting my remaining time before I need to get ready for work, messing around on the computer. *sigh*
I guess I'll hafta go to bed early next time to compensate.

Any Dreamcast fans here? I just started playing "Illbleed" again, and I must say that it's every bit as intriguing as it was back when I first started playing it. It's also one of the most fucked-up games that I've ever played. You should certainly check it out if you like cheesy horror movies.
I've been in the mood to dabble in 3D modeling and animation again. I haven't really done much of that since school, so I'm sure it'll be a decent challenge. Still, it's so hard deciding on where to start. I think I'll just download gmax and pick up a decent book about it.

JesusDusty's new set is fucking incredible. 
Anyway, I'm through with work for the week, so I have the next two days to catch up on my sleep, as well as get numerous other things done. Oh, who am I kidding? I don't have numerous things to do. I'll probably just mess around with my computer and read this weekend.

I think my emotions are on the verge of death. I've been feeling even less emotional than normal.

Oh, words cannot describe how happy I am that tomorrow is Friday. I really need to catch up on my sleep this weekend. And get Gentoo installed. I'm very close. I can feel it.
In other news, I'm thinking of getting my own place soon. I'm planning on getting an efficiency. That should help me to free up some of my hard-earned money for better...

Well, the Gentoo installation process for the older computer seems to be going quite well. It's taking a long-ass time (probably even more so than with my primary computer), but it's definitely getting there.
Nothing overly exciting going on. I hafta do my local taxes today.

Well, I think it's time I tried installing Gentoo on my old-ass computer. I just shudder when I think of how long it'll probably take to compile everything on that dinosaur.
The Specs:
450MHz Pentium II Processor (I think.)
64MB SDRAM
12.6GB HDD
And I can't even fucking remember what type of video card it has. *shrug*
Wish me luck!

Hmm, yea I already use as many open source products as I can... and yes, Nero is an exception. The way I see it, since I can use an open source OS, I might as well. Plus I have little experience using linux in an everyday setting (where you encounter all the sneeky problems 
) and I'd like to feel more confident about it's place on my resume.

Well, I work for the montreal neurological institute/hospital which is about 50% research. I work on the research side. We're adjoining (through a bridge between the third floors) the Royal Victoria Hospital. A HUGE beast of an hospital.
About the deads. I've never touched one here. Never helped move one either. In winter, I often cut my walk to work by passing through some basements. One of which contains the morgue so I've seen corpses being moved. And then, there's the pathology collection, that's kind of cool...

Yay! I've finally finished installing everything that I need on my computer. Windows 2000 Professional, I love you.

I usually use Gnome, or just command line (depending on what I'm doing). I haven'y heard anything other than KDE and Gnome being recommended.
Hmm, see, while I want a distro I can get up and running reasonably quick, I have two purposes for wanting to use linux:
-It's open source, and I want to support that
-You can't help but really learn what's going on inside mr. computer.
For the second but, I kinda DO want a bit of a head ache, heh. But you're probably right.. I'm a beginner too so maybe I shouldn't get too crazy to start

Try fluxbox, an hyper-minimalist wm.
