I think it's important to note that /dev/random UUIDs (and others) have some disadvantages:

- you'd have to store the uuid yourself if you want to reuse it
- there's no guarantee at all that there won't be any collisions

Thanks, Yaakov!

Indeed it was Weihestephaner Dunkel as Nicu pointed out earlier in a comment that got deleted when I renamed this post :D .

I didn't know about Colemak, thanks!

AFAICS Colemak replaces CapsLock with Backspace. Do you then map that to be another Ctrl?

Vim was really designed for qwerty, and it doesn't really have "portable" key bindings. hjkl should be next to each other in order for vim to do it's magic. That's one of the greatest and easiest to see improvements with vim. You get to be really fast at trivial movements through your text.

Anyway, here's a tip (i think it's from the vimtutor, you have gone through the vimtutor, right?). j is like a hand pointing down and k has this line that's bigger at the beginning so you could say it's pointing upwards. Also, h is at the left and l is at the right, but you're not using qwerty :)

I didn't have wireless at the time, but I know that setting up the network was really easy in Arch. I spent a lot of time getting wireless working in FreeBSD.The good thing is I just had to read the handbook, but it wasn't easy.
FreeBSD is really old. All of it's processes are documented. It's developer community is made up of a lot of professionals from very different areas. And they mostly focus on the operating system, its core, rather than all the different third-party apps.

Arch was really easy for me. Pacman used to do all the work, even if it broke things once in a while. I used to get past those things really easy by searching their bbs. The FreeBSD community isn't focused on the desktop. If you go to #freebsd and ask a desktop related question, you won't always get lucky. So Arch has IMHO one of the greatest communities around. Most of the people there knowledgeable and also use Arch on a desktop. Also, their bbs is filled with threads about people trying out new stuff like tiling wms, and other terminal-only apps. Geek paradise.

aur is another plus for arch. It's really easy to contribute mainly because PKGBUILDs are so easy to write. I don't know about the ports system...

Burnout is a good word for what I was trying to express at the end of my post. That's kind of what I'm feeling, too. Lately the main form of art through which I choose to perceive the world is literature.

Hi Matthew,

I'm currently using an X20 iriver I bought about a year ago that plays ogg vorbis. I'm also planning on getting the cowon iaudio 7 mainly for its sound quality(jeteffect), ogg vorbis and FLAC support and lack of a big screen.

I've heard good things about the sansa clip, too. I've heard it's got a good quality for shuffle devices, but I think the cowon is better in this respect.

I don't think I'll be trying Ogg Theora very soon. As a consumer, I don't think I'd have much to watch.

L-am menționat într-un alt post. O să caut să-l pun într-un loc mai vizibil pe blahg. Poate la about și o să-l șterg de aici.

As I was saying, there's an option to keep the formatting out of the html, but it's not compatible with pygments stylesheets, so I'm not using it for this example.
\le: Actually it comes with it's own styles, too.

try:
:let html_use_css = 1
