RESEARCHUT

Long Long Long sleeps in the day are what have become my pasttime in the weekends. I wonder when and how I’d be able to rectify this bad habit of sleeping very very late.

I wonder if Kalejee Daawat is something enjoyable only during the bachelor days. Indeed, now, being in my bachelor days, I enjoy Kalejee Daawat a lot with Ankit. Having a gulp of beer and then munching the spicy Kalejee in the mouth reminds me of the great taste of North India.

Heartly thanks to Ankit and Nirmal for there awesome company and knowledge of such exotic places in busy Bangalore.

A small talk I gave about Debian and its merits at the ILGUD on 18th of April, 2004.

Purchased a Sony DSC-M1 recently.
Man, proprietary stuffs are real costly. The storage device alone (1 GB) costs $200.
But in total the camera is good to have. It’s compact, 5.1 Megapixel lens and blah blah blah.
For an ignorant photographer like me, having a smart digital camera helps capture moments in good pictures to save them for future.

Learnings,
if possible try going for commodity stuff which isn’t proprietary unless you have the passion of spending money on “Love at first sight at $omething”. Yes, proprietary stuff are unique which increase the temptation.

Yes, keeping up with the trend and not letting me get behind

I’m Blogging

And yes, the date in the footer is misleading. I started to blog from June of 2005. Haven’t bothered to fix that single bug.

Updated: Yup! I fixed it.

Useful documentation about my notebook, Compaq Presario 2203AL, running Debian

The following talk is all about Debian for which I was made to speak at the ILUGD meet held on the 18th of April 2004. Most of the references in this talk has been taken from Manoj Srivastava’s (Lead Debian Developer) talk.

Debian – Philosophy, Merits and Key Features

Philosophy ** **

Philosophy is the most durable differentiating criterion between the operating systems we are considering. Performance numbers change. Ease of use, reliability, availability of software – all these characteristics change over time, and you have to go out and re-evaluate them over time.
