Technorati; my new laptop!
(Oh noes! It's been 26 days since my last post. Pharyngula promises to delete blogs that don't post in a month.)
What's the deal with Technorati? My blog is now ranked 1,446,383 with authority 3 (about the same as rabitguy), while giza is ranked 142,439 with authority 33. Pharyngula's actual blog is ranked 131 with authority 301, but Technorati instead says I'm linked from Pharyngula's old blog, whose authority has fallen to 315. Why doesn't somebody fix these things?
So my ThinkPad 600E has been getting worse and worse. Now one of the RAM slots doesn't work. I can't access more than 96 MB of RAM, which really isn't enough for the operating systems of today. So I got a ThinkPad T23 from Ebay. Nice! But it took me over two weeks to get Debian "Etch" Linux working properly on it. I'm less than impressed with the polish on that distro. I wrote 14 pages of technobabble (decorated with nekkid pictures of computer parts) about what I had to do to make it work, but it's posted to the web under my RL name so I won't link to it from here but merely crosspost some of the photos.
