Finally ! My patch to hamster applet got accepted. Don't believe me ? Looky here : http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=558912

Now I am really motivated to work on doing more in hamster-applet.

Hello everyone!

Hello ladies and gentlemen, we are proud to present to you yet another open source release from the awesome company that I work at: OpenCraft

Nothing much to say, I am not good at " I'm back posts " and I won't explain the long time not blogging.

Here are some very useful links, that I want to keep here if I need them later :

* http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/
* http://www.freedos.org/
* http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack.html
* http://www.supergrubdisk.org/
* http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

Only 5 days left! Still alive and kicking. Got sick and tired of ubuntu , so I installed debian etch and added testing , unstable and sidux repos. Feels a lot better.

Regarding my previous post about the recovery mode security hole :

where some people didn't believe me, an update was just pushed that fixes this:

Posting this from my laptop right now !

Turns out my laptop's motherboard was covered with an extended warranty because there was a design defect that caused the malfunction.

Site has been successfully upgraded to 6.2, and is now mollom enabled. Thanks Msameer for the suggestion.

Let's see if I can get the gallery back.

Due to security concerns, I upgraded from drupal 4.7 to 5.7.
Image galleries and captcha modules lost. I like this theme, until I fix the old one.
Next up 6.2

my laptop is b0rked. it turns on but the screen remains blank and there is no evidence of booting activity. i am posting this from my mobile.
