In a couple of days I should finish the migration of this site to a new host, so this site is about to become www.notmart.org.
I wish to thank my friend fosk for hosting me for over a year 🙂

ban comic sans
I only discovered now this site. ROTFL!!!
But no civil action/corporal punishment would persuade the hordes of “professionals” that puts comic sans into the more embrassing places 🙂
site update
I finally added support for comments and a simple rss feed, so now this site is a true blog: that makes me nearly emotioned 🙂
fighting against crappy init systems
I hate both sysvinit and bsd style init, the why it’s obvious 🙂
after seeking for some time for a non-crappy init system some days ago i read on Roberto Alsina’s blog about runit, based on daemontools.
I didn’t know about it, but i suddenly felt in love on it, it has everything i wanted from an init system: parallel sevice startup, service supervision and explicit dependencies between services.
Now i’m trying to make a ready-to-run(tm) package for slackware, i’m pretty at a good point.
Stay tuned 🙂
tiny site update
Made a printer stylesheet and modified a little bit the screen stylesheets in order to appear a little bit less crappy on inernet explorer.
But dude, explorer sucks, trow away that sh*t 😀
Eat your own dog food
Updated the installation of phpWet that runs this site: everything went ok (almost) in the first attempt.
Wow, i’m not accustomed to such things 🙂
mambo et alii
Maybe i will get a new webdesign-related work. Since phpwet is still not ready(and maybe it will never be, for that matters:),we decided to use mambo, it’s quite simple to use, but it doesn’t totally convince me.
Why the hell all these gigantic cms produces crappy html?
btw, the html produced by mambo is less bad than many others(phpnuke, ezpublis, xoops, sorry dudes, but i don’t like them:), but as many others its layout is made by inserting a table for(;;){into another table, into another table, into another table}
Another option was drupal, i must say the html that it generates is absolutely beautiful, but i feel its admin interface(and so, the structure of the underliing databse) very cryptic, but intriguing in some ways. At the moment i didn’t had time to study it more so we had chosen mambo, but i will make furter investigations, to discover if i love it or if i hate it 😀
Back to mambo, i am making a template that should simplify the layout of a mambo generated site a little bit simpler(only a pity that not everything can be themed), i should be able to publish it in a day or two.
new toy
Got a new laptop, an asus one, it’s rather cute, if only i could make that fu*ing winmodem to work under slackware.
I hate these damn winmodems ^_^.
Physics and phpWet
Yesterday i passed my (fortunately)only physics exam (the electromagnetism part), i thought i hated it more, ain’t bad, after all…
btw, i hope i will graduate someday….
On other absolutely-non-relevant news the wonderful phpwet now sould have the archive feature a little bit less broken, so now this site has a news archive! wow 😛
an huge new year
A trite new year wish to everybody, if that matters.
This only remembers me how i’m late in my life, but let’s hope the new revolution around the sun could bring some goodThings(tm) to everyone.
So, let’s everybody get drunked!!
Ah, and this year the Bubuti will come, btw.
