Pete's Log: Log Entry 279

Entry #279, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 21 years old.)

look out cessium clocks, pete rijks is the newest development in super-accurate timing devices. well, ok, maybe not, but i just surprised myself... i was checking what time it was, so i hit enter on an idle term (my prompt has the time in it) and encountered the following:

[20:51:44] prijks@esgeroth:ttyp2 [~] (0)
                   prompt-fu => 
[21:51:44] prijks@esgeroth:ttyp2 [~] (0)
                   prompt-fu =>

i hit enter exactly an hour after the previous prompt had been displayed. exactly!

since i'm not getting anything done right now, i decided i'd slack off and read the linux source some more. some choice excerpts:

/*
 * Now, we have to map the power management section to write
 * a bit which enables access to the GPIO registers.
 * What lunatic came up with this shit?
 */

(that quote is from arch/i386/kernel/setup.c .. gotta love x86)
anyway, it is now voyager time.
