We do not have twenty pairs of shoes piling up at home. Usually we just wear the ones we have as long as possible, usually until they fall apart as the worn out ones are the most comfortable ones.

So it&#8217;s time to look back and think about if my habits changed a little &#8211; and yes, they did: As the Atrix does not offer a hardware keyboard I don&#8217;t use it that much for sending text messages or e-mails as it&#8217;s a little troublesome to do so. The Nokia N900 which I used before had a decent hardware keyboard and I used to type a lot on it.</p><p>Even if modern (Android) phones offer autocompletition and other tools to make typing more easy, it&#8217;s still nothing that can replace a hardware keyboard.

href="http://toei.stargazer.at/2012/02/14/einmal-etwas-genauer-nachgegraben/">Rei&#8217;s World</a> offering statistics about a second life like world which claims to be better than the original world.</p><p>Of course, anyone out there knows that Linden Lab adds about 25000 residents to their statistics to appear bigger, but wouldn&#8217;t you suspect a virtual world that claims to be better to be honest? Sorry to disappoint you. Here are the numbers from Rei translated into English for your convenience:</p><p><span
id="more-1324"></span></p><blockquote><p> Stats pretend that there are 898 Regionens in Inworldz, but only 836 were reachable. This means that 62 Regionen were recorded, but unreachable. That&#8217;s about 7% of the whole land mass.</p><p>Speaking about ownership, 154 of those regions are posessed by Inworldz, which is about 17%. Breaking it down to parcels, it&#8217;s even more crazy: 744 4048 m² (approximately 15%) are owned by (known) Inworldz staff avatars. I don&#8217;t know how you feel about those numbers, but that&#8217;s quite some for own usage.</p><p>Checking the regions, 148 had less than 100 Prims, which is about 1/6th of the whole land mass. 110 of those were empty, not containing a single prim. Going further with that analysis, 104 (94 empty!) owned by Inworldz. You may think that this is a perfect region for vehicle usage, but that&#8217;s not implemented yet (note by me: vehicles cannot cross region borders) &#8211; so it&#8217;s just dead landmass.</p><p>In short, there are not more than 750 regions active, which isn&#8217;t reflected in the statistics at all, as it would make the Inworldz world appear smaller than presented.</p></blockquote><p>Somehow this reminds me of a quote by Benjamin Disraeli, who said once: &#8220;There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.&#8221;, as faked statistics crumble as soon as you have a closer look.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://my.stargazer.at/2012/02/24/everyone-cheating-huh/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Syslog-NG rants</title><link>http://my.stargazer.at/2012/02/23/syslog-ng-rants/</link> <comments>http://my.stargazer.at/2012/02/23/syslog-ng-rants/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 23 Feb 2012 09:31:39 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Stargazer</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[IT Related stuff]]></category> <category><![CDATA[gentoo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[linux]]></category> <category><![CDATA[syslog]]></category> <guid

In case of trouble, it&#8217;s quite common, that you&#8217;ll visit this directory after browsing through syslog. Sometimes it would be nice to be able to really track down changes to see what happened over time; and this is where git comes in handy.</p><p>First, create the repository and secure it:</p><blockquote><p>git init-db<br
/> chmod og-rwx .git</p></blockquote><p><span
id="more-1320"></span>Then it&#8217;s time to worry about files we don&#8217;t want to track. We list them in .gitignore. Mine looks like that:</p><blockquote><p>*~<br
/> .pwd.lock<br
/> ld.so.cache<br
/> mtab</p></blockquote><p>If you didn&#8217;t set up the git client (Name, mail,&#8230;) it&#8217;s the right moment to do that before we start working:</p><blockquote><p>git config &#8211;global user.name &#8220;Your Name Comes Here&#8221;<br
/> git config &#8211;global user.email you@yourdomain.example.com<br
/> git config &#8211;global color.diff auto<br
/> git config &#8211;global color.status auto<br
/> git config &#8211;global color.branch auto</p></blockquote><p>Now let&#8217;s do an initial import:</p><blockquote><p>git add .<br
