Hooray! Adobe +decided to call off the storm troopers and join the good guys. You can +read all about it +here.

Oh yeah, I promised an update on the +Debian Linux install. Well, so +far things have been going great. I'm now in the unique position of +having either too new of a glibc or too new of a gcc for occasional +applications. Of course, that's my only gripe, and it usually only +takes a bit of tweaking code in order to get it to work properly.

Anyway, a few days after I installed Debian, my motherboard decided +to crap out on me. The diagnostic LEDs seemed to think it was a dead +CPU, so we went out and got a new Duron 750, which didn't do any good. +A few days later, Snow-Man and I +went out and got a new motherboard (a MSI K7T Turbo instead of a MSI +K7T Pro). That seemed to fix things up nicely.

I haven't been working on a whole lot lately, but I did manage to +eek in some time to write a quick GUI bash and gdialog wrapper for +apt-cache search; you can grab it +here. I revamped my bash tweaks, you can +grab the latest version from the +Bash Tweaks project page. I also +rewrote and posted an updated version of my +VIM config. You can grab it +here. I rewrote +most of my Mutt config as well, but +I haven't quite finished packaging that for public consumption just +yet.

+ +

A few random things... Since we share the same office, +Brian has been threatening me +with one of +these sissy +Nerf guns. I've decided to get +one +of these just in case. I accidentally stumbled across +Astalavista, a great site for +grey and black hat security goodies. Finally, here's a couple nifty +links I found on Memepool: +
