Last Tuesday visited the Melbourne Novell Users Group meeting with [livejournal.com profile] imajica_lj which had an interesting "where we are going" news section from Craig Wiley, which was quite pro-opensource, a big change for Novell. The following day however was an ironic decision. Despite being quite fond of OpenSuSE, my desktop machine just ain't up to the hardware requirements. So after careful consideration I've embarked on a radical downgraderegrade of my software to... Red Hat 8.0Debian Sarge. Some might think I'm crazy but it actually suits my needs and the hardware in question.

In RPG news [livejournal.com profile] caseopaya ran "Little Fears" on Friday. On Saturday we had a delightful visit from the soon-to-be-wed [livejournal.com profile] ser_pounce and [livejournal.com profile] wolf_in_winter and played the hilarious Munchkin. Sunday was the Norman Britain AD&D game where the noble venturers sought out the final base of the slavers at the Balaeric Isles (or, in gaming terms), managed to get 2/3rd of the way through module A3. Review-wise on RPG.net I've added Slave Pits of the Undercity, The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh, Glorantha's Elder Secrets, Megatraveller's Imperial Encyclopedia.

Mixed weirdness. A parrot names N'kisi has a vocabulary of 950 words, correct grammatical structure and a sense of humour, via [livejournal.com profile] p_cat. Parroting to his master, Prime Minister JoHo lands in hot water over saying a vote for Barak Obama was, effectively, supporting terrorism. Via [livejournal.com profile] trayce with my letter to The Age on the matter. A DNA swab on Pauline Hanson reveals a good third of her genes is mid-eastern and medittereanean. She mentions eras of "rape and pillage" in response. Seriously fubar; A cop ejaculates over a motorist and walks.
