more school stuff

Monday, May 31st, 2004

so it seems that i’m not quite as far along as i’d thought, if only because getting to where i need to be will kill me during the summer. so rather than do that, we’ll not and move on during the fall. i’ll need to get some advisement before fall registration begins from […]

My school has a totally awful registration system that apparently is outsourced. It has the unpleasant feature of being totally down from midnight Saturday morning until 6:00 a.m. Tuesday morning.

if any of yall read this from […]

gentoo

Tuesday, May 25th, 2004

gentoo’s admin-level interface is considerably different than most other distributions. it uses sysv-init, unlike my much beloved slack, and has a reasonable package management system, near as i can tell, like debian. it doesn’t seem to suffer (yet) from the stupidity of rpm hell, so that’s a plus. some of the very […]
