Gaim x MSN

Filed under: Uncategorized — sulamita @ 2:42 pm

Já não é a primeira vez que acontece, e como soube que mais gente está passando pelo mesmo problema, acho que não custa deixar uma notinha.

Meu Gaim começou a se suicidar quando ia autenticar a conta do MSN (sim, eu uso; não, não gosto, uso só pq meia dúzias de pessoas ficaram reclamando que eu era a única que ainda usava icq; sim eu tenho jabber; não, não informo o endereço para estranhos; é, é fácil descobrir mas eu bloqueio quem não conheço; sim eu sou chata, bla bla bla, entra na fila). Cheguei a enviar mail para o Patrick porque este e vários outros efeitos colaterais – como o Firefox crashando a cada 5 min ou cada página com flash – começaram depois das ultimas atualizações. Ele respondeu que já recebeu outros mails parecidos com o meu e desconfia das bibliotecas NSS do Mozillão, mas não tinha nada concreto para dizer.

O Gaim eu consegui arrumar fazendo o trabalho digno de uma conta MSN – removendo tudo e começando novamente. Removi a conta, fechei o Gaim, procurei por entradas da minha conta no diretório do Gaim e encontrei referências ainda nos arquivos id e id.priv (são os arquivos gerados quando você utiliza o pluguin de criptografia). Removi as referências nestes arquivos, reiniciei o gaim, adicionei a conta novamente, e funcionou.

Mas enfim, depois de desistir de debugar o Firefox, com o GTalk não funcionando mais e crashes aleatórios, resolvi que era hora de fazer uma reinstalação. Não, isto não quer dizer que o Linux/Slackware/whatever precisa de reinstalação periódica, quer dizer que eu faço tantos testes e zonas na minha máquina que eu achei que tava na hora de limpar a instalação. Alguma coisa que eu não li no changelog, e que o Slackpkg atualizou pra mim sem a permissão de alguma outra lib… Ou isto ou eu estava realmente precisando de uma desculpa para estreiar minha caixa com cds oficiais do Slackware 11 recebidos e já utilizados na sexta feira…

White & Nerdy

Filed under: Uncategorized — sulamita @ 11:00 am

“White & Nerdy” by Weird Al” Yankovic’s

They see me mowin’ my front lawn
I know they’re all thinkin’ I’m so
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy

I wanna roll with the gangstas
But so far they all think I’m too
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
Really, really white and nerdy

First in my class here at MIT
Got skills, I’m a champion at D&D
M.C. Escher, that’s my favorite red M.C.
Keep your 40, I’ll just have an Earl Grey tea
My rims never spin, to the contrary
You’ll find that they’re quite stationary
All of my action figures are Cherry
Stephen Hawking’s in my library

My MySpace page is all totally pimped out
Got people beggin’ for my top eight spaces
Yo, I know pi to a thousand places
Ain’t got no grills but I still wear braces
I order all of my sandwiches with mayonnaise
I’m a wiz at Minesweeper, I could play for days
Once you’ve see my sweet moves, you’re gonna stay amazed
My fingers movin’ so fast I’ll set the place ablaze

There’s no killer app I haven’t run (run)
At Pascal, well I’m number one (one)
Do vector calculus just for fun
I ain’t got a gat, but I got a soddering gun (what?)
Happy Days is my favorite theme song
I could sure kick your butt in a game of ping pong
I’ll ace any trivia quiz you bring on
I’m fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon

Here’s the part I sing on…

You see me roll on my Segway
I know in my heart they think I’m
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy

I’d like to roll with the gangstas
Although it’s apparent I’m too
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
How’d I get so white and nerdy

I been browsin’, inspectin’ X-Men comics
You know I collect ‘em
The pens in my pocket, I must protect them
My ergonomic keyboard never leaves me bored
Shoppin’ online for deals on some writable media
I edit Wikipedia
I memorized Holy Grail really well
I can recite it right now and have you R-O-T-F-L-O-L

I got a business doing websites (websites)
When my friends need some code, who do they call?
I do HTML for ‘em all
Even made a homepage for my dog, yo
I got myself a fanny pack
They were havin’ a sale down at The Gap
Spend my nights with a roll of bubble wrap
Pop, pop – hope no one sees me gettin’ freaky

I’m nerdy in the extreme
Whiter than sour cream
I was in AV club and glee club
And even the chess team
Only question I ever thought was hard
Was “Do I like Kirk or do I like Picard?”
Spend every weekend at the Renaissance Faire
Got my name on my underwear

They see me strollin’, they’re laughin’
And rollin’ their eyes cause I’m so
White and nerdy

Just because I’m white and nerdy
Just because I’m white and nerdy
All because I’m white and nerdy
Holy cow, I’m white and nerdy

I wanna bowl with the gangstas
But oh well, it’s obvious I’m
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy
