The ramblings of g1powermac

Well, its 11 pm Sunday, and got a whole bunch of exams/quizzes this week. Bah, won’t be nice this week, but it could be worse (like last semester).

Also, a SlashDot article pointed out that an organization from Europe for monitoring votes and elections in third world countries that have unstable democracies will be looking over this upcoming US elections. Heh, can’t blame them. Between what happened in Florida and the switch to insecure electronic voting machines, the group definitely has a point. More Info

Besides this, I have found (with help of bhartshorn) that some hacks in the linuxrc file of Clusterix to be quite buggy. The toram boot option does not work now, so I’ll have to figure out what is going on with it.

Err, according to this article it seems that almost everywhere in NJ (where I moved from a year and a half ago) makes the most unwired city list, meaning NJ prolly has the most wireless networks per square mile. Now here in KY, seems only one city made it, and thats a fairly long ways from where I am. Bah, oh well, at least my college has a wireless network (if you want to call it that, it really doesn’t work at times).

Also, according to a SlashDot article, somebody actually overclocked an Intel chip to 6 ghz. This is just amazing, seems we will soon see some pretty darn fast chips if Intel, AMD, and IBM can break the 90 nanometer mark. Heres some info on the overclock.
