Yesterday someone gifted 2 medium sized gold fish in a nice lookin round glass bowl. By this evening one of them died 🙁 I have a feeling they were overfed. Does anyone know how much of those small pellets should I feed em ? and also how often ? I found some info here but I still dont know how often to feed them

Finally have 24×7 Internet access at home via 24online. Speeds are not all that good, but surely beats dial-up. Also I’m in a scheme with unlimited usage. Its was only 200 bucks more then the 500MB/month limit. Quite an easy setup too. I have a CAT6 cable pulled upto top of my place and a CAT5 from there to my machine. All I need a network card to hook on to the ISP. Only issue is, I have to use a client to connect. Without using the client, the router does not let any of the packets from my machine…
< after some random technical ramble related to work > other person: fair enough – did we just invent this? kalyan_va: yeah kalyan_va: what they call Ugly hack other person: All ugly hacks are potential patents. *Gulp* .. looks like its hard wired into people’s mind.. every great idea is followed with a patent. ( which in this case was just a bad lazy and ugly hack )
Loads and loads of stuff happening in my life and around me and I just cant seem to keep up with them. abiligiri, who used to work with me, moved to another group this week. Now its time to find a replacement and I have no idea how to do so. Though anand agreed to help me with stuff till I find a replacement , he will have other work. Two folks from japan had come down this week to get trained and understand some security stuff. Well all went well, except for food. For 3 days I had to…

SCO has gone a bit too far this time. FUD, FUD and more FUD Bad enough they go after IBM and other linux vendors , now its the Linux users. They want licensing fees from every linux user and if you are a company you are forced to buy SCO UnixWare licenses , which allows to use unlimited linux within your company. Quoting the CEO from eweek : “With more than 2.4 million Linux servers running our software, and thousands more running Linux every day, we expect SCO to be compensated for the benefits realized by tens of thousands of…
India will host a Formula One race in the future, the sport’s boss Bernie Ecclestone has said. “We will be having an F1 race in India, for sure. When and where it will be I cannot say,” Ecclestone told Indian news magazine ‘The Week’ in an interview”. I thought it was going to be in Bangalore, though it looks like it will be in Hyderabad. As for tomorrow’s race, things look interesting. Today’s qualifying had too many shockers.

A major flaw in cisco routers surfaced this week. By sending a carefully crafted packet, one can completely hang any cisco router/firewall/switch. To make matters worse, the exploit came out today which I think is the reason why I cant access half the sites out there. Took a crash course in cisco routers and cisco security in the last 2 days 🙁 Juniper has put up a nice set of Anti-cisco cartoons 😉 As for other stuff, someone really needs to shove a coconut up Microsoft’s ass. First of all the Homeland Security Department has chosen Microsoft Corp. as its…
