Grated feet

Who uses these and how hard are your feet that you need three of
them? It seems to be an indication that your shoes are fucked up. Or
maybe it's the new home parmasean replacement?

Last night dinner

We went out to dinner at Curley's with James and Robert. I ate until
I was absolutely stuffed. The drinks were so yummy. I especially
like the "I'm going bananas." which is a frothy banana drink with
toasted coconut shavings.

Then afterwards we got home and Robert whipped out this cheese platter
extroidinaire. Needless to say I passed out on the couch and woke ip
at like noon.

At the DMV

My passport expired and I couldn't stand not being able to go dancing
in Toronto any longer and decided to go get an enhanced driver's
license. I went to the DMV on dick and George urban. It was much
nicer than my last DMV experience. They have a million comfy benches
and just give you a number. Then they call you when they are ready.

I couldn't believe how fast it went. I wasn't even finished filling
out the form when they called me up.

You are required to have your birth certificate, a bill with your
address, your social security card, and your old driver's license. I
think there are some other options too.

Boring life

All I do is program, work on the house and work out. The programs are
awesome and plentiful, the house looks awesome minus fuscia and I am buffer than ever but I am bored to death. I think it is reflected in
the fact that I have nothing to write about.

The dorm windows and detail

The dorm windows are back in after a month long of repair. Somehow
three panes are already cracked again. I guess it is their happy
state and they securely in place.

Next spring we are going to rent a cherry picker to fix and finish the
tops of the dormers.

The orangey, teracota color really pops out now that is has a couple coats.

microsoft patenting sudo?

I seriously can't believe that microsoft got a patent for running commands as an administrator. Are the judges in these matters at all knowledgeable of the subject matter? The best part of the article was learning that sudo was developed at Suny Buffalo. I wonder how that factoid escaped me for so long.

Microsoft patents sudo system used in Mac OS X, Linux?

The USPTO recently granted Microsoft a patent, No. 7,617,530, which describes a method for running a command as an administrator. The filing has sparked outrage by many, including Groklaw blogger Pamela Jones, who believe the company has simply rebranded the sudo Unix command developed in the 1980s by members of the Computer Science department at SUNY/Buffalo.

The "rights elevator" patent covers "systems and/or methods... that enable a user to elevate his or her rights." Microsoft focuses on an embodiment utilizing a graphic user interface presented when the current account lacks the proper privileges for an operation. The interface then identifies accounts that have administrative privileges required for certain tasks.

The patent terms have lead to speculation that Microsoft may be attempting to receive licensing revenue from companies utilizing forms of sudo in their operating systems. The technology is currently integrated into GNU/Linux systems and Mac OS X.

Others argue that, while the patent includes sudo references, it is actually based on the graphic interface which only pops up after the user attempts to perform a task outside of their account's rights. Similar systems, however, are common to most operating systems.
