Wow - after days of fruitless trying, ap-get up(date|grade) finally gets me some new stuff on my Ubuntu box. The successor to Hoary is called Breezy. And for some unknown reason I do apt-get update several times a day. I am *so* bleeding edge.

Oh, regarding my previous post, it seems that the analog clock in gdesklets is burning insane amounts of cpu cycles. Remove that and I am grand.

Wrote a perl script to conjugate Finnish verbs; it works nicely and my Finnish colleagues couldn't even find a misbehaving verb; well he probably did not try hard enough (well, there are few irregularities in Finnish verbs. How nice). Now if only I had a perl interpreter in my head...

Last year I wrote a similar program for *Dutch* verbs; and I used Haskell that time. I find perl easier to program, but maybe that is this low iq thing people keep on telling me about.
