Delicious Dinner at Seabar

We went out to dinner with (e:Jim) to see him before he takes off for Portland. I am totally jealous. If my family wasn't here I would leave in a heartbeat. I really want to stick it out here but it really seems like every smart person I know leaves.

It doesn't help that I hate my job so thoroughly right now. I am totally bored working with so many people who don't even seem remotely interested in what they do other than that it brings them a paycheck.

I yearn to have a technical conversation with people that can understand and are interested in the details of the technology they are using. I never thought I would say this, but I want the next place I work to also be union free. That and I want to be the boss ;)

I found them growing on a tree near searbar. At first I was so excited because I thought they were leachee fruits but they are not.

Pyroom

Hey (e:tinypliny,52765) I found a Q10 replacement that is available in fedora. Its called pyroom

and I have a feeling they had Q10 in mind when designing or that they both have a common parent. Its so funny all of these systems look like the terminal prompt I spend most of the day in. This is native and much better as it does not jerk you out when you save. Sorry no typewriter noise but I bet that could be added if needed.

From the command like type sudo yum install pyroom at the terminal or just open up the package manager and search for pyroom to install. It puts an icon in the office folder under applications. ctrl+p for preference settings.

PDF-XChange Viewer on fedora 13

While there may be alternatives, you do not need on. I have pdf xchange viewer

running on linux natively using wine.

Install wine using fedora package manager (System->Administration->add remove software).

Search wine and install (A Windows 16/32/64 bit emulator) if it is not already installed.

Then download the installer for PDF Xchange and run the installer like normal. Because i don't normally run this software, I can't tell you how good it works. Its seems to be stable to me though. Hopefully, (e:tinypliny,52765) can give you more info.

It should make a shortcut on the desktop. You can drag that to the panel at the top of the screen if you prefer.

Seabar lunch 2

And I am going there for dinner tomorrow. (e:jon) got the new loco moco which is a hamburger on fried rice with an egg on top and gravy. I think I want to try that next time.

I had the lunch special #2 - nigiri plate with sesame noodles and miso

Drag drop worked for me in Mint linux Firefox 3.6.3. Seems like Mint uses KDE.

Seabar Lunch

The lunches at seabar downtown Buffalo keep getting better. There lunch menu expanded like the dinner menu did. (e:samathon86) and I ended up on the new clubby looking side this time. The ambiance was pretty chic for lunch.
