Configuring the Buffalo WHR-HP-54G as a bridge is quite easy, given that you can get Tomato firmware on there. The default Buffalo firmware doesn’t support bridging or, I couldn’t find it. only thing I found was WDS bridging which is not what I want.
Install Tomato
You need to install an alternative firmware, fortunately most WRT derivatives [...]
At work, I have been tasked with setting up a Linux terminal server to lighten the load of our exsisting Windows server.

Yesterday when I got home there was a nice present waiting for me. My G1 Phone arrived! I ripped open the packaging and found a phone that was smaller than I expected from the images from the internet.

Default argument values for functions are a nice shortcut in python. They save you from writing many wrapper functions and make the code more readable and also easier to use. They can be used wrong though:

… return a
…
>>> foo()
['bar']
>>> foo()
['bar', 'bar']
Like described in idiomatic [...]
I’ve become in the habit to miss shift-a in vim (edit at end of line), and instead pressing shift-q which brings you to the ex-mode. To get out of that, you need to type the command “visual“. Quite long and annoying.
Quick look at the help pointed me to the vimrc_example.vim (:help vimrc_example.vim). And this nifty [...]

Today I switched the IRC Daemon on darkwired. From old unreal to the shiny new inspircd. Inspircd is pretty easy to configure although it is a pretty big config, it is quite easy to understand and it did not take long to get it up and running. Big plus on that one!
Ofcourse no first configuration [...]
