doncha weesh your stash was dope like mine

blogworthy:

  • MyOSS Magazine Edition 5 - The Chronicles of FaTUX released!. In this issue: *nix LiveCDs, Design Before Coding, Python Cards, and HITBSecConf2005 tickets up for grabs! Download here or here. After 5 issues, I must say that the team, especially Ow has done a really good job in promoting OSS. Rocking!

  • Games hackers play. "The competition tests a security administrator's ability to secure complex systems with unknown but required functionalities," said Meling Mudin, HITB senior security consultant. "The emphasis of the CtF game is on real-world skills and not just pure bred hacking skills," he said. This includes analysing the security posture of a system, finding and exploiting vulnerabilities, writing automated scripts, and keeping a running system alive while under massive attack, he explained. . It's old news, but the article is here.

  • National Day! Hurrah! I am really off the mark this time - but 31st August was Malaysia's Independence Day. I may not have read the local news much, or I must have missed it completely, but is it true that this year's National Day theme was called Lighting the Fire of Patriotism?

  • Owen joins the Magpies. Uh-huh. I'm not a fan of Liverpool or Newcastle (or Kota Bharu if you're into that kind of thing), but I just pity Owen. Hidup segan mati tak mahu. But then again I admired his way of handling things - I mean to me (even if I am not a Liverpool fan but let's assume for 2 seconds that I am), he managed to go back to the EPL by joining Newcastle and not his former club without making his former club fans pissed off and dissappointed, and as a 2-second Liverpool fan (okay, let's make it 90 minutes when the KOP plays Chelsea, mmmkay?), I am not angry, or dissappointed either. At least he comes back, if not to Liverpool pun okey aper...

  • My brief flirtation with Enlightenment. E17 is sweet. Too sweet. It just totally rocks! So I emerge it (e17 is available in Gentoo's portage as a CVS install), and was mesmerized. After a day I decided to ditch it and figured that I am happy and content with my extremely minimalist fluxbox desktop. I feel that E17 is like an extremely hot new girlfriend (Japanese some more!), but there's just something lacking in her and you just can't pin-point it out no matter how much you stare at that spot below her navel. Fluxbox is like Mary Jane (yanno, Spiderman), simple and elegant. Heh. I'm a nerd.Totally.

Duhh, my last posting in your blog must be >1 year ago. Love to hear that you love Enlightement DR17, it's totally sexy & rocking man!

My so-called "not very beauty but considered eye-candy lah" screenshots:

I still preferred DR16 anyway. To use DR17 for daily life, you need to be a hacker ;-)

one thing about e17 (or dr17) is that the configs are in some kind of binary format... so i dunno how to configure it. but the shadows are damn nice...
