Today was a great day to go for a walk through the swiss landscape/hills near Basel. The sky was blue, the air was crisp, and it was not too cold and not too warm it was just right. It was a blast, check out the pictures! Switzerland is such a beautiful country!
The hell-hole of Jersey basically. Sitting in the lounge. Eating foods, stealing wireless. Yes, I said stealing. Some jackass put up a Wifi hotspot named "Free Wifi" using his Verizon EVDO enabled laptop. So I VPN'ed home, and now I have secure internet over an potentially very insecure network link.
Yes, the hat is with me!
And it will be visiting Europe for the first time!
With apologies to LostboY. Your hat will be visiting Europe before you!
I am not sure if I posted this here back in February, but I can at least repost it now.
The FreeBSD foundation is looking for donations to help support developers with specific projects, send them to conferences and buy equipment. This year so far they have raised over 216000 US dollars to support everything they do. I am asking that if you read my blog and you have a few extra dollars left over, send them to the FreeBSD foundation so that they may use it to further the FreeBSD operating system.
You may ask why I am asking you to be so selfless an donate to this organisation and it is because I use FreeBSD extensively though out my day. It is used to serve up this page on Lighttpd. The more funds they have available to sponsor projects, and buy hardware the more stable the OS will become, the faster it will become. While it won't affect me directly (the donations) they will benefit us all in the long run. Many websites and servers run FreeBSD for DNS/Web server/Mail server and other services.
So please donate to the FreeBSD Foundation. It will make you feel good inside!
