I feel like I'm stuck. I haven't done anything valuable this year, and my todo-list is too big for me. And my kindle isn't coming. And I'm not able to get borrowed money from George.

probably, I should try to redo it in cython

When I'll switch to debian, I'll use xdiskusage instead of all that memory-eating gtk apps. I promise.

The left side of cell phone

Where is the left side of cell phone?
Most of asked people responded : "the side where "left" for me is a left side of cell phone." But when I turned phone around, its "left" side became a "right" side for observers.

For me, as humans have "left hand", and it will stay left independently of point of observation, so cell phone has a "left side" independently of point of observation. The "left" side is the property of the system.

So, if we're talking about any object by itself (observer and object don't interact), an observer's imaginary point need to be placed inside of the object.

youtube bookmarks

I need to try creating bookmarks to some points of video inside of this video

example:

0.00 introduction

5.12 core part

15.22 conclusions

probably, this item should be placed in the upper right or upper left corners of the video window. if possible, it is to be visible only if user place a mouse in a certain area.

howto Install windows xp sp1 to the new notebook

my bro can't do this because of lack of drivers at the disk.

this is my plan:

1. install it to the VirtualBox

2. install additional drivers to the system

3. install acronis or another disk cloning software to the virtual machine.

4. use some utilities to reset all drivers

5. create a disk image and copy it to the shared folder, or directly to a flash drive

6. boot a live version of the cloning software and copy a disk image to the hard drive

second variant: clonezilla+VmWare

oops.. I've found a brillant HOWTO

notes

1. the source of "error 911" @gamess-us was incorrect amount of SysV system memory.
For fixing, I've added this two lines to the /etc/sysct.conf
#add sysV shared memory
kernel.shmmax = 402653184

2. Calling with skype from command line
2.1. install Skype4Py: easy_install Skype4Py

Disk failure

After power outage I couldn't log into my second node. Also, I coulnd't reboot it. So, I've booted Fedora liveusb, and tried to find disks with "fdisk -l". It didn't work.
su - and I didn't have to input any pass at all. Wow, I'm root now ^_^
#fdisk -l gave me info that I had /dev/sda1 there as a primary disk. I've checked it with
#fsck -cc
Then I leaved my workplace to digest some food. It took me about hour.
Unfotunately, I didn't choose "yes for all questions" option, so I had to reply "yes, I do want to force rewriting this block" It took another 20 minutes and was really boring.
As a result, I've got a working disk at the moment.
