Note: This is the Beta release for Kaptan 4. Design (graphics, colors, layouts) can change until Pardus 2009 stable release (30 days to launch! \m/)

Kaptan4 looks like Kaptan3 but it is fully written in Qt4 and Python. As always, comments are appreciated :)

]]> http://pinguar.org/blog/?feed=rss2&p=54 What’s in my head.. http://pinguar.org/blog/?p=53 http://pinguar.org/blog/?p=53#comments Mon, 19 Jan 2009 12:16:03 +0000 pinguar http://pinguar.org/blog/?p=53 Whenever I try to be a stable blog writer (one post each month seems fine, huh? =)) I just FAIL. So I’ll write a summary of last few months, ..

  • A couple of days ago, I got the following e-mail from Google Diversity Team that was saying I am one of six award winners to attend linux.conf.au:

    Thank you for your application to the Google-Linux.conf.au Diversity Delegates Programme. After careful review by a committee made up of Linux.conf.au organizers, Linux Chix, and representatives from Google - your application has been selected as one of the 6 award winners!

    I had a list of talks in mind to attend @linux.conf.au. But unfortunately, it seems I can hardly get the visa on time (remember the MySQL case -and other side of the coin.. *click*)

    Wonderful news.. but,.. well.. just news. =)

  • * It’s 19th of Jan. but I forgot to tell you Project 366 was succesfully finished! I started Project 366 just for want of trying, but lately it became a long-year album. I see how Photojojo was right. It’s an amazing way to document travels and accomplishments, relationships, .. and so on. Time moves surprisingly fast.

    Btw, i made a video from all Project 366 photos:


    Project 366 (2008) from Pinar on Vimeo.

  • I have some supercalifragilisticexpialidocious plans about school, ah.. frak school.
  • And at last, I started to use KDE4 on my daily system, but it’s more like a mutant (using Nautilus as a file manager is enough?)

Since I successfully unlocked & signed into my Google account last week (it was only one step further: an edge or 3g connection! :)), I am happly using Android. It has nice features and geeky enough–except it rapidly drains battery (i turned brightness down to 0% as a workaround, but still sucks).

I am currently writing this entry via its browser. But I get bored.. Let’s be a bad girl ;P

*pinar hits enter*
*pinar types “reboot” to address bar*
*pinar hits enter*
…………………………………………………………………………….

Wha? What happened? Why my phone restarted? Aww, did it evaluate everything i write as a system command? I must kiddin’, huh? :)

But unfortunately, I’m not kiddin’… It is really the most bizarre flaw I’ve ever seen.. You can read more from here.

PS#1: Note that, only Android 1.0 TC5-RC29 or earlier are vulnerable and a patch has released already.
PS#2: Don’t even try to type “rm -rf /” :P
PS#3: Oh, and there’s that, too.
PS#4: Aomm, and there was that, too.
