Android, BAFUG, and Camp KDE
Well, looks like this is my first post of the year… Happy 2010!! I bricked my Android phone about 2 months ago. I know, pretty lame. But all the custom Android builds needed testing, so I thought I’d take a chance. My first attempt was successful, which lead me to believe that rooting the Android was trivial. After a few JF roms, I decided to give Cyanogen a try. The feature I was craving was Apps2SD. It seemed silly that I couldn’t install apps to my SD card. I ended up bricking the phone while flashing hboot to a newer version. After this I lost the recovery console and the bootloader. Thankfully, Randi (freebsdgirl) had an extra G1 around while I wait for my replacement to ship. Thanks Randi!!

Getting Ready to Ride!
In just a few hours I will be taking the Amtrak to Matt Olander’s house so we can prepare for tomorrow’s ride. This will be my first serious attempt at riding a recumbent, thus it must be streamed live from my G1 Android phone. Apparently the ride is pretty serious, taking us all the way to Folsom Lake. Check back tomorrow at 9am for the live feed, or visit my Qik account for archived videos.

Great pix, James! Haha, that’s ironic that ISC, a customer of iX, won the server! PERFECT

I would have to completely disagree with what you say how good PC-BSD is. And for the record, I do not use Linux, I do not have Linux installed on any systems. With the code they develop on top of FreeBSD for PC-BSD has consistency issue, and just don’t think they pay close enough attention to code correctness, I think it gets sluggish. Although my first choice is always to use OpenBSD on everything, I have set up FreeBSD as a desktop system. All I do is select minimal install, populate ports and source, patch the system, compile KDE4 from ports, and I find everything runs better and quicker that way. Once Firefox has been compiled from ports, I have seen it load instantaneously when you select it from KMenu. With PCBSD being developed for people who don’t know any tech stuff, and their own lack of proper auditing of code in the manner of say OpenBSD, I see definite performance issues, and some speed issues. I think it just gets bogged down. So that is why I would definitely disagree with what you say about how good PC-BSD is.
