title: OSX, Planetarion, and More!
---

<a href="http://www.richlowe.net/">Richlowe</a> introduced
Jeff and I to a game called <a href="http://www.planetarion.com/">
Planetarion</a>; it's an entirely web-based space strategy game, with
over 20,000 players.  I've been playing it for a couple weeks now, and 
I'm pretty hooked.
<br /><br />

Also, Sean installed <A href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/">Mac OS X</a>
on his machine.  I added his uptime to my sidebar, so you can compare
his pathetic OSX uptime to my incredible Linux uptimes.  Oh, and you
can see a screenshot of OSX
<a href="/screenshots/20001016-2128-seans_osx.jpeg">here</a>.
<br /><br />

I've been rewriting the core for <a href="/projects/ewl/">EWL</a>, and
I posted a super-early snapshot of the new tree.  You can check it out
<a href="/projects/ewl/ewl-0.3-20001017-1736.tar.gz">here</a>.  Note
that I have not finished merging the older code in, so there isn't any
pretty graphics or theming just yet.
<br /><br />

Finally, I did a little bit of clean-up to the <a href="/download/">Download
page</a>.  It's now divided into several sections, and each item has a
modification stamp and a cute little icon.  I'ma still at a loss,
however, as to how I'm supposed to follow item #1 on
<a href="http://twistedpath.org/website-rules.html">Term's Website Rules</a>.
