Notoriously resistant to (for practical purposes, afraid of) change.Powernow, needle phobia, bridge mode and new domain
New home
Thanks to Vikas and Melvin, I got myself a domain name. I've been lazy on this (though I knew its not the right thing to be lazy about) and Vikas' showing me his domain was a catalyst. Mine is kinda lousy being a third level name and all but hoping for first name in second level is too much.
Powernow
This had been crawling for some time, last month (yeah, before I took ill, for those who know about that) I did a BIOS upgrade and powernow-k8 module started working. But then no big deal except for 2-3 degrees drop in the temperature when I switch to the 1 Ghz mode.
Bridge mode
Another thing that was crawling but not for long. apt-get install pppoeconf and run it after setting the
MT 882 to bridge mode (in the WAN settings). Add route to ppp0 and that was it. Its not of much use except
debugging plus the extra tension about setting up the firewall. But then one could setup Counterstrike
server on Windows. Then again I'll have to figure out how to get this working on windows plus a firewall
is kinda un avoidable.
Needle phobia
Yeah the nurses at the hospital fixed that. I had blood samples taken every 6 hours. Can't believe I let them do that. Plus the cannula almighty - It was the first time I had that one on me. Horrible.

cannula
Haha .. da, I was down with typhoid for almost one month last year and I had the same experience. The "cannula" was like Karnas' "kavach+kundal" for me :)) ..
cannula
I hate it da.. I had it removed the first time and re-inserted .. It has this needle and the tube surrounding it. Just imagining the insertion is painful to me.
Haha .. But I was even more surprised that the needle was really a "harmless" one, it managed to remain inside me for two weeks without any ajor issues !!
cannula
Hmmm. Thats surprising, some one said quite often they have to switch it in a week or so. Probably they did that to scare me. Yeah those are usually harmless once poked in except for the care you have to take while switching networks, red stuff spurts out. Most of the people-who-do-it dont turn the knob to shut it (I think thats what its meant for) before changing the network.
