Nerd day
OK, so maybe that's really every day
Not much happened today, I woke up at 1pm, studied physics for a few hours, then played warcraft for a while. Ate pizza solo for dinner then came home.
I did manage to get suspend-to-disk in linux working on my laptop, which is awesome for two reasons:
1. Now I can suspend my laptop and use zero battery, because suspend-to-disk takes all the computer's memory contents, write them onto your hard disk, and then shuts the power off.
2. Since windows has this feature too (called "hibernate"), I can now switch back and forth between linux and windows in like 30 seconds, while still keeping my current programs and documents open in each.
Yesterday wasn't much cooler, I spent all day at my new house and starbucks. Installed the CVS (testing version) of xfce on my laptop, and I must say it is pretty awesome. See pic of the day.
Physics final at 1pm tomorrow and I feel pretty ready.
