(no subject)

Allen sent me a link to an archived version of the old index page for my old machine, gabriel.chu.cam.ac.uk, which got me nicely nostaligic for a bit:

Three broad categories of people tend to get accounts:

• Friends who know more about Linux than me and can help out with sysadmin stuff.
• People I know who don't have Unix access elsewhere.
• Women I am trying to impress.

That last one never worked, of course.

In other news, girlie is ill and so I have spent most of today watching crappy TV, reading and playing on Drogon. I should write some code for nilsimsa or the POP3 filtering proxy thing, but I can't be bothered. Work tends to suck the enthusiasm out of me at the moment.
