Wow!

My system threw a kernel panic at me today!
kernel panic
Well of course I'm running the latest beta of OS X 10.4.6 here, and well it's been a long time since the last time I've seen such screen :)
And no I wasn't playing with kernel stuff - the page just happened to be there at that moment. Coincidence? :)

Moving again :)

…bloody again… this time to WordPress

RapidWeaver, which I used until now, is actually a pretty nice piece of software, I could even close my eyes on its incredible slowness. But! There is one thing which made me move - the thing is that when I use RapidWeaver, I basically can post to blog from exactly one place - my home computer where site file is stored. Meaning no posts from job (I worrk at job, really, but sometimes.. you know.. ;) and other convenient places

So.. move is complete (and installation was a breathe), and now I hope I'll find some time to tweak the design so i doesn't look like zillion other wordpress based sites on the Net :) On the other hand who cares ;)

No go for Aperture

Monday, December 5th, 2005

Unfortunately, Aperture didn't launch this time for me. The main show stopper is that it doesn't support movies which I took sometimes with my camera. The other thing is that.. well, the proggy is not that slow but, not fast and also a big drawback is that it stores images in some weird format when I just can't get access directly to an image file in an easy way (well, one can always travel down thru Aperture's library packages ;)

I took a picture of my workplace yesterday. Complete mess just the way I like it ;)

First run with Aperture

Sunday, December 4th, 2005

Installed Aperture yesterday, and now trying to figure it out, importing my old photos into its library meanwhile.
On the first glance, the software is pretty nice and though might not be 100% ready for pro photographers, can be called iPhoto Pro in terms of functionality. Speed is.. well, not too bad on my 1.25 G4 PowerBook with 1Gig of RAM, but still to early to tell though. Regarding memory usage, not as bad as I thought. After some playing and now importing pictures, current usage is about 100Megs physical and around 500Megs virtual memory, which is not bad at all..
