Aprem improductive

Un peu comme le temps de Belfort aujourd’hui

Quelques trucs en vrac de ma fenêtre de log de la journée :
* Le gâteau de départ de Muammer était assez, hum, choucroutesque (mais succulent).

* Je m’emmerde et les cartes speedtronics ne se rangent pas toutes seules.
* Je lis les blogs de tout le monde (sam` [...]

Having fun with Banshee and D-Bus

After a little poking at the docs, DBus-Explorer, previous code bits and having some times ahead, I put up together a small Remote Controller for Banshee accessible within a web browser and using D-Bus for the interprocess wire.
With BansheeRemote you can start your favorite music on your main PC (with all the sounds equipments goodies) [...]

C# vs. Python

That post isn’t a in-depth comparison of the two languages because it would require lot of time and, in the end, I don’t find that sort of thing particularly pertinent.

Without further introduction, here [...]

ST10 1/2

Some Real Life™ after two weeks of stage at General Electric. First of all, the guys here are still as cool as last summer. The (almost) hourly traditional meeting at the coffee machine are a good way to discuss and exchange jokes with my colleagues (one of them is particularly fond of the stupid and [...]

Arch-ifying the EEE

I passed the weekend but it was really worth it. I mostly followed the indications on the Arch Wiki for the installation part (using dkite’s modules and patched acpid) except that I used the latest intel Xorg driver package from testing instead of i810 and its ugly 915resolution hack. I also had some problems [...]

Sad

Prologin and FOSDEM turned out to be the same day. Since it’s the the last year I can participate to Prologin (which would be my only participation too) I have to forget about FOSDEM . Next time, next time …
PS: a great thing should happen tomorrow.
