Website Move and Other Junk
I’ve finally done the cutover on my personal site from chocobo.cx to 2bithacker.net. To go along with this, I’ve also started using kyzoku@2bithacker.net as my primary email address, instead of chip@chocobo.cx. Both still work for now, but I’m going to be putting a bouncer on the old one in the near future telling people to use the new one instead, and once the domain expires next summer, it’ll be gone for good.
In other geek news, I’ve been experimenting with some stuff on my laptop (now wraith.2bithacker.net instead of tonberry.chocobo.cx, for anyone who cares) including switching from the XFree86 X Server to the X.Org Server. The new 6.8.0 release has a bunch of neat features, including real window transparency and drop shadows, however neither work very well on my laptop. I suspect it’s because I have so little video memory and I run at 1400×1050 at 24-bit. Ah well, I’ll have to try it on my desktop sometime.
Oh yeah, and I now have a phone line at the apartment. It’s a VoIP line from VoicePulse. So far it seems to be working out pretty well.
