Finally! I’ve spent the last five years surfing the Web for a perfect t-shirt. I’ve found a few that were pretty close. And I’ve even bought a few. But until today they all were pretty close, but not exactly there. I’m proud to report that my search is over.

ThingGeek features I Never Finish Anyth t-shirt. It describes my nature is one unfinished sentence.

P.S.: Also, if you are particularly slow today, the paradox of the t-shirt content and finished search for a perfect t-shirt was intended.

I am downloading the much awaited release of Fedora Linux Core 6, codenamed ‘Zod’, as I write this. Here is the FedoraNEWS announcement. And here is the Fedora torrent repository.

Hurry up with your torrent clients, so that you could enjoy the maximum speeds of the hype…

This is just a quick update to let you all know that all my future about blogging will be posted to Cyprus Blog Network’s blog. The network’s blog is a much more appropriate place for blogging-related stuff, and hopefully it will be useful to more people as well.

Let me know if you are terribly irritated by such a move, and, if you are many, I’ll do a synchronization of posts from CBN to this blog.

So, what do you think of this?

Yesterday, we had a really nice jam session at Dmitry’s place. Only a few of us, some beer, a little scotch, and loads of fun. It was one of those rare gatherings when everyone had his mood in order and atmosphere was just right.

Guys played a few tunes. I made a whole bunch of pictures. I used Dmitry’s camera, which is, although the same model as mine, feels so much different. Mainly that is because of a different lens and a large flash unit. Dmitry was kind enough to sort through the images and upload only the better ones to this Flickr set.

Have you noticed that laptop computers produce a lot of heat? Well, technically, most computers produce a lot of heat, but laptops’ are easier to measure without any tools. The bottom side of the laptop computer heats up pretty fast and warms up any surface which supports the laptop.

This all might sound like something you’ve heard before. But here is a new bit: if you laptop is on a table, and you’ve been working on this computer for a few hours, you can actually feel the heat under the table. Yes, that’s right. Just touch the surface of the table which is under the laptop - you’ll know what I mean.

By now you probably have a little idea of how boring and slow my day was up to now…
