Swobodin v Brně

Another strange event that happened to me and I could not explain!
Yesterday, a friend — King Panga — had issues to access to his old NTFS disk with Windows, a permission denied alert. I suggested that he uses Knoppix, burns data and reformats the old disk but no way to do that: the data […]

I don’t like the way of making permanent links in WordPress blogs; there are mainly 2 methods:

URL indicates date and/or title post, the most popular method, but the problem is funny: I can’t access to my posts through a proxy/firewall stupidly configured, where the words ’sex’, ‘fuck’, ’suck’, … are censored. As I don’t […]

I’m supposed to promote Fedora Core, to help Fedora Core users to fix their problems, to talk about Fedora Core whenever it’s possible, to make this system as popular as Firefox, to recommend it for everyone, to distribute CD’s and DVD’s, to install it for free, to make a Fedora portal (it’s done), but […]

Well, I’m not really artist, I was just playing around with Inkscape and randomizing shapes, then modified colors. You may download the SVG source code from here; I haven’t done it with feelings, but if you want to analyze my artwork to understand my psychology as Freud used to do, feel free to do it, […]

I was in the post office, sending DVD’s to some friends. All the pack were closed but the employee audaciously opened them, saw the content and even read what’s written!
I did not wonder, since I have already learned about this, but I just asked whether they respect privacy, he said “What?”.
I told: “According to […]

Saturday I played an online chess match, I already played thousands of similar games, but the interesting fact is that it was against a Tunisian blogger, /etc/shadow. Honestly, I thought I was going to win the match within few moves, but he built a solid but passive defence and could liberate his pieces in […]

Yesterday I downloaded all drupal modules and several themes to upload them to Fedora Tunisia. Plugging modules was not so easy, I had to hack on each one to fix CSS, XHTML transitional, PHP code, etc. I also changed the default theme and switched to spreadfiredox. Looks cool, but modifying the code took me […]

According to Log statistics, 12.2% of my visitors that come using a search engine use MSN. Naturally, it’s hard to find what they want: A GNU/Linux user generally uses Google and rarely works on Windows 98!
It seems that there’s a bug that not only made MSN mix the sites and add warez content to […]

I have just updated my profile info; it’s about me, so don’t click unless you want to get more information about this blog’s owner.

I fixed the subdomain issue: All the URL that used to start by http://fedora-tn.org/swobodin will be automatically redirected to http://swobodin.fedora-tn.org, no change for remaining string.
Please update your bookmark if any.
Code for .htaccess
RedirectMatch Permanent ^/swobodin(.*) http://swobodin.fedora-tn.org$1
Yet, I should not create a directory called “swobodin” or I will get a 500 error code.
Next step, learn RewriteRule […]

Yesterday was the Great Backup Day. I have recently bought a DVD burner, and had to buy it, because the space remaining on each partition was some megabytes; I wonder how I could survive! The good thing is that I learnt how to burn DVD’s without having to make an ISO image, the whole […]

Tous les mardis, je regarde la version arabe de “Qui veut gagner des millions”, la seule différence avec la version européenne, c’est que les Arabes se sont entendus pour ne pas s’entendre : en effet, si le candidat décide de faire appel à l’avis du public, son doute s’agrandit : rarement on trouve une […]

Supporting freedom does not only regards softwares, it’s also about privacy!
No, that’s not a paranoia: people that are spying on your inbox are not actors in science fiction movies: they exist, and I personally experienced that several times! Besides, sometimes the provider does not see any matter to open your […]

Once I went to the gocer and he gave me the spice into a paper, written in French.
Curiously, I opened the paper and found out it’s a page of the book “Cancer Ward”, whose the author is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
For the information, Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn is a Russian novelist born in 1918, a war decorated […]

Porn, viagra, casino, and some words I don’t understand… I got more than 70 within a week! Fortunately, the WordPress keywords filter removed most of them, but it’s not enough, since the database size strangely increased. I am using a new method: denying spam robots with .htaccess file.
According to the WordPress site, you should […]
