SamatsWiki

• Diff for "FrontPage"

This is a public WikiWikiWeb for me to add, edit, and take notes on whatever I feel like taking notes on. A geek would not be much of a geek without a page describing their ComputerHardware.

Expect it to be very messy.

If you're here to check out this wiki's new theme, look at pages with lots of text. I recommend such pages at HelpOnInstalling, WikiWikiWeb, etc.

I'm incapable of remembering too many little things in my head, so I've made cheat sheets. DotFiles contains configurations for programs that I use.

Interesting pages

• Theora discusses various ways of encoding Theora video via command-line tools

• Zsh lists links to zsh files, configuration snippets, etc. I'm considering switching from bash to zsh. I also found interesting stuff about Bash in the process.

• PetRabbit collects information on owning rabbits as urban pets

• SSD has information on configuring a Linux desktop to work best with solid-state disks

• Zeroconf has some tips and tricks for using zero-configuration networking under Linux

• Apartment is a braindump about sharing chores and expenses with my apartment flatmates

• 802.11n chronicles my quest to find open-source 802.11n devices, particularly routers

• Facebook documents various things about the social network, mostly at this point about their egregious treatment of user privacy

• OpenStreetMap are pointers and information resources I use for mapping

Lists of things

Wikis are great for keeping lists of things. Some lists of things I am keeping:

• AdvocacyTaglines

• BitTorrentTrackers lists public BitTorrent trackers

• DebianChecklist is a checklist for configuring new Debian-based systems

• FrequentlyUnaskedQuestions

• GNOMEIsAntiUser contains list of various reasons GNOME sucks (with references), which I use as a reference when people force me to start trolling about how GNOME sucks

• ProseSnippets are pieces of text I thought were written particularly well

• TEDTalks are notes and summaries of TED talks that I thought needed to be jotted down

• UserInterfaceTerms contains a list of technical terms used in the user interface and information architecture design communities

• Wines contains a list of wines/other alcoholic beverages I've found I like, and need to purchase again

You can find out more about me at my personal homepage. Stalk me on the Internet by finding me ElsewhereOnTheInternet.
