Gnome 2.6: First Look

So, I took the plunge. I installed Gnome 2.6.
Taking a look at the Debian Gnome 2.6 status page, I decided that it was relatively safe to give it a try. It seemed that most packages had made it into experimental. Also, nobody was running into #gnome-debian screaming about horrible things…
So, I added the following to [...]

Too Much Work

Wednesday…the day I normally get a 4 hour break between my two large blocks of class…
However, today I’ve had to spend my otherwise normally peaceful break doing chemistry work, reading physics, studying for math, trying to decode quantum theory, and searching for a ::real:: calculus book (linear algebra based). Ok, I’m a nerd, but I’ll [...]

The Return of the Midterm

So, I got 58/100 on my first physics midterm. Ouch. I guess I need to start attending lecture and doing more practice problems.

I have a math midterm on next Tuesday. I borrowed Shelly’s math book so I could do tons of practice problems. Hopefully they’ll help.

I’m meeting Milton at 1:30 today to go over Judges [...]

I’m going to meet Bryan of ABSK for dinner at 7 around Durant Square, and afterwards, read my Chemistry textbook (quantum chemistry is evil). Sometime afterwards, I’ll setup some test-blogs at [...]

The Sky’s Falling!

I’ve been wearing my headphones a lot these days. After discovering freshlymixed and hybridized.org (thanks nonforma), I’ve [...]

Random Computer Stuff

Yay! I’m back in Berkeley. However, I already miss home again. I guess I’ll have to wait another 2-3 weeks before I come back. I really can’t wait to get back too, since I’m going to Europe for winter break! But first, I must survive these last few weeks (and tests) of the Fall semester…
I [...]
