I'm not a ricer anymore. I got stoned and decided to download/install Mandriva 2006, the free version. So far, so good. I'm liking it. I don't have to configure *everything* by hand, unless i want to. So i'm going to try and stick with this for a while.

On a related note, my new video card will be here tomorrow or tuesday, nvidia geforce 6200, a huge improvement over my radeon 9000 :)

uuum... oh i am finalizing work on the ninjapirate e17 theme, and i am tired. sleep now, byebye.

RAYRAY is Rice

ok ok. so all the hype about optimizing gentoo, is, for the most part bs. but with a ridiculous set of CFLAGS and a couple LDFLAGS, followed by a complete system rebuild, my pc is significantly faster.

tehrayray@euclid cat /etc/make.conf
#This is rayray's super excessive make.conf!

It had never occured to me what an absurd combination wasabi and ham was, until JoelTehTroll pointed it out to me. Honest O.O

[@kingrayray] it is a sandwich of the gods
[+JoelTehTroll] No way man.
[+JoelTehTroll] I've had better sandwiches.
[@kingrayray] probably
[@kingrayray] but pot makes anything you're eating the greatest food ever.
[@kingrayray] there's wasabi on my sandwich
[@kingrayray] and ham.
[@kingrayray] and cheese and lettuce.
[+JoelTehTroll] what the fuck is the matter with you?
[+JoelTehTroll] Wasabi and ham?

Today was quite possibly the most boring day ever, up until this evening. (except I talked to chelsea all day, which made everything ok. :D)

I spent at least four hours reading quotes at bash.org. While hilarious for the most part, it does not exactly make for an interesting, and fulfilling day.

BUT. Around 8pm, I ended up with a copy of Crossover Office 5.0 (Commercial WINE distribution) and a copy of Photoshop 7.0. And guess what? Photoshop runs great! :) AND. I finally saw Revolution OS a great documentary about the history of Open Source and Linux. And now I'm uh.. talking on IRC. Here's an excerpt from tonight's discussion in #ninjapirate: (excerpt == HUGE clip. enjoy!)

<+twisted`> I totally picture myself
<+twisted`> in this big mansion
<+twisted`> and this big ass jacuzi

<+htedrom> words can't describe

<+boneyfrog> well mail sent asking permision of the darkcurve gtk theme author asking to distribute my patches inside the next blue eyed theme
