I’ve bought a GPS device for use during treking and cycling. Since the choice is rather limited here where most of the GPS devices are car dedicated I’ve ended up with a Garmin eTrex legend HCx. Connecting Upon connection my Ubuntu syslog shows: Sep 7 15:53:47 black kernel: [16333.973603] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 Sep 7 15:53:47 black kernel: [16334.117759] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Sep 7 15:53:47 black NetworkManager: <debug> [1220792027....

De ce? Am facut prima versiune a hartii incercand sa arat interactiuniile din blogosfera romaneasca in contextul roblogfest. In contextul dat se puteau vedea linkurile dintre un numar de aproximativ 500 de bloguri. De atunci am primit mult feedback legat de harta si pe baza lui am filtrat urmatoarea lista de functionalitati ce ar fi interesant de adaugat: un numar mult mai mare de bloguri posibilitatea de a extrage alte informatii posibilitatea de deschide efectiv site-ul intr-o alta fereastra Asa ca asa a aparut v2....

In procesul de creare a noii harti a blogosferei am cautat o metoda de a diferentia diferite bloguri intre ele. Avand in vedere ca pentru fiecare blog aveam 2 informatii de baza: links_to: numarul de bloguri care linkeaza catre blogul curent links_from: numarul de bloguri catre care blogul curent linkeaza m-am gandit sa fac 2 histograme ca sa identific cam care sunt tentintele in ceea ce priveste numarul de linkuri catre si dinspre un blog....

I have decided to call my Acer Aspire One “the little one” or “little” first because it’s really little and second because I was reading Orson Scott’s Ender – Speaker of the dead and as “the little ones” from it’s book this netbook has been strange at first to me. I have never had a laptop with less than 1600x… or it’s wide equivalent resolution yet this laptops screen is bright and I could use it even on the beach under an umbrella....

So here are a few things which bother me a bit to this new toy: long shutdown time (even if the boot is very fast) large power cable (it’s absolutely huge compared to the laptop itself) long charging time Yet I am still happy with it, check the difference:

Someone will laugh and make fun greatly of me because of that but the truth is that in a moment of panic caused by the thought of one week without a computer I bought an Acer Aspire One the SSD version. Even if it has a very small screen it’s quite sharp and I loved this gadget right away. It comes with Linpus linux installed. Getting the prompt Just press Alt + F2 and then xterm....

Today, after working for a few hours on a document, while trying to open another openoffice crashed with a very ugly sigsegv. Confident in the recovery mechanism I started oowriter again, accepted the recovery and BUMP, it crashed again with the same error: Fatal exception: Signal 11<br></br>Stack:<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libuno_sal.so.3[0xb7198d4b]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libuno_sal.so.3[0xb7198e84]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libuno_sal.so.3[0xb7198efe]<br></br>[0xb7fd0420]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libucpdav1.so[0xacc988e0]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libucpdav1.so[0xacc9a931]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libucbhelper4gcc3.so[0xb746a7b5]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libucbhelper4gcc3.so(_ZN9ucbhelper7Content19openWriteableStreamEv+0x2e8)[0xb74746d8]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libcomphelp4gcc3.so[0xb7566ce8]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libcomphelp4gcc3.so(_ZN10comphelper15MediaDescriptor14addInputStreamEv+0x2fb)[0xb7568d2b]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libsw680li.so[0xaef04521]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libsw680li.so[0xaef033ca]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libsw680li.so[0xaef07562]<br></br>/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libuno_sal.so.3[0xb719087d]<br></br>/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0[0xb69c84fb]<br></br>/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(clone+0x5e)[0xb6826e5e]<br></br> Unfortunately there is no way to select just one document for recovery and thus my only apparent choice was to loose all the changes on the first document....

Idea Ma gandesc de ceva timp la niste grafice care sa arate orele de maxim si de minim din blogosfera romanesca repartizate pe ore ale saptamanii. Asa ca m-am apucat de “joaca” si iata ce-a iesit. Metoda e descrisa la sfarsit. Concluzii mi se pare cool ca luni cea mai mare activitate are loc in timpul orelor de servici restul concluziilor as vrea sa le trageti voi, ce ziceti? Metoda am pornit de la lista blogurilor din harta blogosferei am parsat paginile cautand feedurile rss in <link rel=”alternate” … am obtinut o lista de 683 9915 feeduri am parsat feedurile folosind feedparser care e si responsabil pentru toate conversiile de date (fieldul updated pe care se bazeaza graficele de mai sus) am stocat intr-o baza de date toate rezultatele (am obtinut 10260 144932 de entries valide) am generat un fisier oocalc pe baza de date grupand dupa zi a saptamanii si ora in care am generat charturile de mai sus Avertizare toate datele sunt oferite “AS IS” fara nici un fel de responsabilite pentru corectitudinea lor....
