Pete's Log: Log Entry 279
Entry #279, (Life in General)(posted when I was 21 years old.)
look out cessium clocks, pete rijks is the newest development in super-accurate timing devices. well, ok, maybe not, but i just surprised myself... i was checking what time it was, so i hit enter on an idle term (my prompt has the time in it) and encountered the following:
[20:51:44] prijks@esgeroth:ttyp2 [~] (0) prompt-fu => [21:51:44] prijks@esgeroth:ttyp2 [~] (0) prompt-fu =>
i hit enter exactly an hour after the previous prompt had been displayed. exactly!
since i'm not getting anything done right now, i decided i'd slack off and read the linux source some more. some choice excerpts:
/* * Now, we have to map the power management section to write * a bit which enables access to the GPIO registers. * What lunatic came up with this shit? */
(that quote is from arch/i386/kernel/setup.c .. gotta love x86)
anyway, it is now voyager time.
