I've been doing some eThreads2 coding this afternoon. I had to set up an Apache2/modperl setup on my laptop to do development now that the real installation's running live on this site. You would think there would be a way to partition namespaces in modperl to have live and devel versions of the same libs in memory, but I can't seem to come up with a way. Is it weird that I'm coding on my laptop just because I really like how the transparent terminals look on top of a background I'm using? Take a look at that shot, though... Isn't that just amazing? The background's from deviantart; I don't have a more specific URL handy at the moment.

My roommate Chris and I were counting up the other day and totalled up that we've got ten computers in the apartment -- and 9 of them are mine. To be fair, though, two of those are the XBox and the Tivo. Both are in reality PC's, but you can count or not count them as you wish. The list aside from those two:

I should be getting my former server back this weekend. At that point I'll retire the homebrew, though, so the numbers will stay the same.
