Last night because I have some empty spaces in my head I sat and upgraded my laptop to Intrepid Ibex (the next ubuntu, which gets finalised on the 30th). The result was about half an hour making X work, fighting a ton of crap and for the half of the next day running most of the work stuff on a remote X server while reconfiguring the laptop.

Last night I received the follwing:

Hello Vasil,

Thank you for attending the Astricon show this year in Phoenix. Your dCAP
test has been graded, and your scores are as follows:

Written (Passing grade 75%): 85%
Practical (Passing grade 75%): 98%

So I’m officially the 1324th dCAP certified :) I’m waiting to receive my stuff over the mail.

I finished reading the last book by Lukyanenko published here (“Cold toys are the stars”) in one go, pretty nice book, with a weird mix with the world of the progressors and strangers by the Strugatski brothers.
(which reminds me that I’m reading the newly published book by Boris Strugatski, “The powerless in this world”, the beginning is promising).

Openfest is coming, and I still have no idea if I’ll be doing a lecture.
