Gentoo fucked up their baselayout again. Turns out even 1.11.13 (or whatever it is) is totally borked (like, the machine couldn't even bring up the lo interface). And I absolutely do not appreciate the network interface scripts just blithely overwriting my resolv.conf and ntp.conf whenever they feel like it.

Those files are the way they are for a *reason*, you know, and I damn well do not want to have to mess with Gentoo-specific config files in that way. One of the reasons why I like Gentoo so much is it doesn't have a huge layer of cruft on top of configuration like Redhat and Debian do (/etc/sysconfig was a nightmare, last time I looked). When I edit a config file myself, Gentoo should leave it the hell alone (unless it gets explicit permission to change it).

So I'm back on baselayout 1.11.12-rSomethingorother. Until they fix it. Of course, I'm too lazy to try to dig my Bugzilla account out and file a bug. ;P

Met with Maya today about some training stuff for GLBU/Pride. We went over some of the Respect Zone training materials she has for the faculty and talked about the program a bit. I'm going to be writing a letter encouraging the University/professors/whoever needs to be convinced that Respect Zone is a Good Thing(tm). Also, I am now the proud owner of a Pride Alliance T-shirt. ;P

I've been meowing a lot more than usual lately. I blame this on having had other kitties (both human and feline) in close proximity recently.

Which reminds me ... Mrrrrrroooow, MEOW! MEOW! Muurrrrow!

Non-worksafe yaoi is soooo boring. I WANT NAUGHTY BITS! ...erm, that didn't quite come out right... ;P
