Ubuntu 之旅

這個月在核醫科的超悠閒生活,讓我似乎又恢復了一些打電腦的興致,結果不做則已,這次一次把所有的作業系統都換了,一切,都是命吧!

其實事情會發展到現在這個地步也不是沒有原因,想當初自己完全是個 FreeBSD 的愛好者,沒想到現在主要的作業系統竟然換到 Linux (Ubuntu) 上,原因主要有下面幾點: Keep Reading

Bloglines 的標題用 16.8px 的字?

最近一直在玩 Ubuntu,不過 X window 上的中文字型一直都沒有很好的表現,雖然也裝了內建點陣字的 firefly New Sung,但必須得自己設定一些有關 antialias 的部份,我參考了 Ubuntu Wiki 上的 UbuntuL10N 這篇,設定了 /etc/fonts/local.conf,因為 New Sung 的 17 號字不太好看,所以改設定為 "less_eq" "16",畫面看起來的確不錯。 Keep Reading

Fear to Upgrade

Until the National Exam was over, I could have enough time to deal with the upgrade of WordPress. It took me some time to backup the database first, and then my customized theme and plugins. The whole process was smooth. It didn't break my data. XD But I don't like its new behavior about the automatically adding of paragraph tags. Keep Reading

My Photos In Welcoming CD-ROM

ph1064_5ph1064_4ph1064_3ph1064_2ph1064_1

These photos were taken when I was a freshman. Because of having a band and playing rock and roll, I had my hair growing long and made them yellow dyed. Someone had ever told me that I looked so MAN with that hairstyle. XD

I lost these photos due to one hard drive crashing. But I found them back in the Welcoming CD-ROM. But some videos of my band still couldn‘t be found. What a pity. It reminds me that backup is so important. And since I rented the virtual host, which gave me 50 GB of space, I should make the maximal usage of it, shouldn‘t I? :p

Flickr API之旅

前幾天看到有人介紹了Flickr Photo Album for WordPress這個plugin,試用了一下覺得還不錯,也稍微幫它改掉一些不合規格的html語法,不過今天還是決定要徹底放棄,畢竟那種幾乎可以說把整個flickr都放一份到家裡的行為,遲早會出問題。

之前想個了方法,就是在每張上傳的照片上加上當天日期當做tag,這樣就可以用slideshow把當天的照片全都叫出來。不過今天試了一試忽然發現,原以為可以用tag把以前的照片都找出來,結果居然不行,喔喔…不過這也正常,沒付錢人家幹麼讓你用,看來得想個方法來解決這個問題。 Keep Reading

Firefox 2 Launch Party

接續昨天的HappyWeb聚會,今天又跑到誠品信義店來參加Firefox 2 Launch Party,除了我本身一直都在用,也一直跟好友們宣傳firefox的好用外,很大的原因是有機會可以拿到紀念t-shirt 啦~結果算是蠻幸運的,報名的序號是80,還在安全名單裡。

在離原本預計進場的時間約莫十分鐘前到,當時除了一些工作人員外還沒有很多參與的人,我趕緊排在隊伍裡,以免到時候領不到t-shirt會有點嘔。 Keep Reading

My Poor Computer

Last time, my computer suffered from RAM problem. I sent the broken RAM back to the retailer, but when it came back, it still couldn't pass the memory test and automatically reboot.

I sent it back again and got it now. But this time, I found the power supply seemed to get some problem. I couldn't power up if any hard drive was connecting. The maximum it could support is only a CD-ROM. How could I do anything with such a machine, and how unlucky I am to encounter such a situation?!

Oh… all my past data are still in that machine. I have to figure out how to save them.

HappyWeb聚會

雖然之前被人批評不適合參加什麼研討會什麼聚會之類的活動,不過我今天還是去報名參加了HappyWeb的聚會,主要是想去聽聽HemiDemi葛力演講,另外一個他們主打的asker, 講Gartner Symposium ITxpo 2006 的經驗,雖然我對這個東西可以說一點都不了解,不過還是抱著順便出去玩的心情去參加了。 Keep Reading
