Uncommon Socks

about to make musth (which uses a java virtual machine) run on a centos5 virtual machine, on top of a redhat virtual machine, on top of redhat.

*sigh*

and, yes, this is because the jvm bug with pegging to an interface is still not fixed; how everyone else isnt hitting this.. wait.. maybe its because they have enough hardware around.

Massive Black Friday Success!

Suck it!

  • $90 airsoft gun for $40
  • $100 Lego for $55
  • Transformers deluxe for $8 (2)
  • PS3 game for $7

Things I sucked at getting

  • $90 Lego for $42
  • $30 Wii game for $15
  • $20 Wii game for $9
  • A Wine Refrigerator for $60 (yeah.. i know.. lame)

And I showed up everywhere late…

I saw a lady buying 10 tomtom GPS units; ~$100 each. And Target had this deal that you got a $10 gift card with each $100 purchase. So, she brought up all 10, and just went through them one receipt at a time…. much to my hatred and the 40 other people in line.

Isn’t there something against doing multiple transactions during a rush? Its like writing a check. But, whatevers.. got my $7 game (last on the shelf).

I’m thankful for the wonderful caring loving family I’ve had young and old.

I AM SO PISSED!
I forgot a bag of merchandise at Walmart! The cashier lady even made a point of telling me I had three bags to pick up - that liar! I paid for these items and they are supposed to be in my possession, dammit!

I think you may have just lost the game.. those are like the three most important items you could buy. I just went to the grocery for 2 packages of cheese.. and it took 40 minutes… I cannot imagine what the cookie/baking good aisle would be like now… time is running out!

Virtualization for Home schoolers:

Linux, since 2.2, has had support for running a system on top of a system.. its called User Mode Linux (UML).

Go here to get a kernel, and here to get a filesystem. (gentoo.. woot)

then bunzip2 them.

then enable ip forwarding:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

then create a TAP virtual ethernet device with a VALID ip address:

tunctl -t tap1
ifconfig tap1 10.1.5.196

then startup the kernel:

./kernel32-2.6.31.5 ubd0=Gentoo-10.0-x86-root_fs_test1 ubd1=swap_fs mem=256MB eth0=tuntap,,,10.1.5.196

then once it boots, login as root (no password), and start an ethernet device with a DIFFERENT IP address, that allows routing from the IP of the host machine to the virtual machine.

ifconfig eth0 10.1.5.225 up
route add default gw 10.1.5.196
nano/vi/emacs /etc/resolv.conf

The first ip can be used to directly go to the host, the second ip will take you to the guest machine.

Next step is to automate this.. and have the host machine automatically start & the vms..

what am I looking at?! this is phenomenal and weird all at once.
One reviewer states: “Seriously, I think these may have cured me.”
Wouldn’t it be weird if we all just went barefoot?

I am looking to recruit some java developers for service oriented web application stuff on a government contract. No clearance required.

Some of these findbyid graphs are shocking. especially when some of the data NEVER changes.. ever.. seriously..

Quantifying the overhead is the hard part… cause, primary key searches are supposed to be trivial.. but, I just keep thinking about all the overhead in moving that data over the wire again and again..

i feel some caching coming on. :D

About to start writing a tool to help me build the settings for graphs in the snmp-graph.properties file of opennms.. oh the pain and annoyance of those silly properties files.

I hope Chrome OS isn’t anything like the attitude portrayed by the guy doing this voice-over.

Agreed. They should’ve picked a girl for the voiceover.
