That caching module died a horrible death – couldn’t get it to read data from the cache fast enough.

Lots happening now: The Euro is with us, got my first Euro coins and notes in a small shop on Shandon Street when I bought Crunchy Nut Cornflakes and milk for breakfast. Head was only a small bit sore from the previous evening.. In our quest for Euros (I don’t care, English speaking people put an “s” at the end of words for plurals! They dispensed with the “s” because non-English speaking people might, rightly, get confused, or even feel threatened by it), anyway, myself and Martina made our way to the Grand Parade Hotel for coffee. Jeez… what a place, first they had no coffee, and then the bar wasn’t dealing in Euros. *sigh*
We went across the road to Centra and bought some sweeties 🙂

Not even sure if I want to make reference to this, oh well, other things have happened since that are just too shocking and awful to contemplate. Many people are sad, angry, lonely and shocked now as a result.. it’s a truly awful world out there sometimes. Hi to the Holy Schmoly ppl..

“Right now you could be outside.”

Where did I hear or read that quote first?

I think it may have a C64 demo. It’s strange how things age so quickly. Young people, hardly out of their teens lament the good old days of DOS. Slightly older people lament the passing of the Amiga, and yet another group laments the passing of the C64 and other 8 bit computers.

Them was good days but these days aren’t so bad!

Lots of things have been happening lately. Along with Owen Kelly, and CorkLUG I’m organising “Linux Awareness in Ireland Day” which will take place on November 6th. More info on the CorkLUG site or LAID site.
There’s also a new release of Install-Sendmail. This release fixes a small bug in detecting Slackware systems. If you run anything else don’t bother downloading this one.

There’s quite a bit of demoscene news on linux.scene.org but they don’t have the news that the only Linux demo to appear at Assembly ’99 is available for download! Get it at ftp://kameli.yok.utu.fi/pub/fit/anataus6/ana6.tgz
It works on my RedHat 6 system, and ldd reports the binary isn’t a dynamic executable so it’ll probably run on most modern Linux distributions.
New version of Install-Sendmail! This one asks you how long to wait to send waiting mail (only if not queuing!), as well as a few bug fixes.
More languages are supported now, 8 in total!
