Don't know where else to put this but if I get flamed so be it, got my flame proof tutu on and here goes;
Some one with a Beaglebone Black do an "echo $DISPLAY: for me and let me know the value.
I tried to use gedit and abiword to edit a file and am getting a gtk+ error saying can't connect to display or some such.
Thanks [ducks head in preparation for incoming]
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Is that some sort of marital aid, or something you should see a vet about?

No C++ standard is allowed to be released until it has been authorised against Nish's master copy of C++ standards. Nish's list goes to C++ 35X.
PG Wodehouse likes Nish's books
Nish once captained India and Australia in the same cricket match. He scored a 6 off a ball he bowled.
Nish is truth. Nish is light.
Nish wrote the bible after a drunken night out with God
Nish can perform the Vulcan salute with his toes

The knish was created in appreciation for Nish's assistance in translating the Rosetta Stone.
Nish can hum three national anthems at once, provided he hums one backward.
The Hope Diamond was created by Nish during a particularly tedious design meeting.

Christian Graus' luggage exists only in an alternate universe
Christian Graus knows the help lines for all airlines
The opening lines to The Number Of The Beast refers to the number of times Christian Graus has seen Iron Maiden live
Christian Graus has a colour - it's sort of an orangey blue
For legal reasons, Christian Graus is not allowed to travel on the same airline as his passport
Elvis is not dead. He's doing a bad Christian Graus tribute act in Nevada

Christian Graus doesn't live on an island; everyone else lives on islands.
The Sidney Opera House was originally built to house Christian Graus' knowledge, but was deemed too small and repurposed.
The verb "grouse" is the anglicized rendition of Graus, yet it pales in comparison to the original connotation.
The Hitchhikers' Guide says that "Belgium" is the most offensive word, but only because it can't bring itself to print "Graus".

If you asked Christian what the most offensive word was, he'd correct you as above 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I forgot about Telstra, I always think of Qantas.

AFAIK, Christian never created a Quantas bashing blog; Telstra OTOH...[^]

So, having not posted here for a while, I came by because Chris got my care package and posted about it. And this is on the front page. This is a thing ? I don't know what to say, but I'm laughing !!!
|

|
|
|
It's a thing. I started it a couple of days ago.
|
|
|
|
|
Because you couldn't sleep ?
|
|
|
|
|
Nah. I go play guitar when I can't sleep.
|
|
|
|
|
And then the neighbours can't sleep, either ?

If Pete's awake, all are awake.
