Movie: Pi

I am very good with numbers. Yesterday I watched “Pi”, a movie about a 214-digit number, and throughout the film I could remember the first three digits. I only mixed up the second and the third.

rabbit attack

A professor of mine was attacked by a rabbit on a bike tour … I couldn’t stop laughing as I have a very good imagination …

Here is a phantom picture made according to the description:
Killer rabbit1

However, police found this:
Sweet Rabbit1

No animals were hurt for these drawings.

drawings

I’ll start a new series on this blog. This tag will cover little pall-pen drawings I make now and then. It should be a message for the people saying I have some creative talent: I told you in the first place!

Python/Deskbar: Files in Project folder

Hi!

I modified the deskbar handler “Files, Folders, Places” to also search in a user-defined directory. By default it only searches in your homedir, I also wanted it to look in my project directory.

Click the screenshot: deskbar-applet-otherhome

Here is the change as patch: deskbar-applet-otherhome.patch (patch, 5 KB), and also as full python file files.py (py, 9 KB).

You probably find the file to replace at /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/handlers, or just let “whereis deskbar-applet” guide you.
