(Post-a-Day, day 26)
by Slack, on December 26th, 2007
Well, I missed a couple days there. Mostly due to a massive Linux crash that I had to recover from. Just one of those things where I was tweaking shit, and it created a cascade of seg faults, and I finally gave up and blew the system out. The best thing about Linux still remains its biggest curse. Tons of choice. Unfortunately, this means Linux does a really poor job of protecting you from yourself. :) Mac does a great job at it, and unfortunately really limits the choice you have, and Windows is in the middle ground somewhere I think. Blessing and a curse.
The one saving grace is Linux isn’t cursed with a registry. So, restoring a fresh system is as easy as reloading the files to the / partition, and my /home partition just seamlessly integrates back in. Keeping all my prefs and what not.
So, I’m back, and will be posting again! YAY!
If linux shot you in the face you would say something along the lines of “Oh that Linux, always playing jokes. I still love it though, its the best!!!!!!”
LMAO! Not true!!! Not true!!
