Yesterday's update generated a fair amount of interest (i.e. emails) That was pretty cool but I think not really worth putting them here

Here's some more computer related bobbins. Firstly I must say it's a whole year since I built this Linux box. So yay and stuff. I'm still surprised it never exploded or anything. There are still tweaks that could be made (hard disk speed anyone?) but I think I need some way to back up before I do anything remotely dangerous. Anyway:

• An introduction to GNU Privacy Guard, if like me you can't be bothered with GnuPG you could read this, like I'm doing (it's quite a long thing, some of the reason I'm posting it here is so that I don't lose the link:) )
• Found the link on Debian Planet, where there's also an interesting thing about Debian losing "mindshare" in which that old "Debian is not a 'my-first' distribution" thing was mentioned; this always makes me smile:)

Not related to computers.

• Milk is great. Drink lots of milk. Buy more milk than you usually need, and drink the excess. Trust me, it's really nice and it makes you feel better.
• Chocolate liqueurs are really good as well. I'm not really a fan of anything alcoholic except cider and alcopops but I think strong drink and chocolate go together really well.
