Some days ago I've decided to make a small update to my site by installing the <a href="http://drupal.org/project/comment_notify">Comment Notify</a> module. The module should help the visitors get updates on answers in the comment sections. The main reason I added this since some people have been asking me questions on some of the Free ...

As it sometimes happens, I've been way too lazy to even start working on the photos I've made during my visit to Brussels this year for the FOSDEM conference. The photos have just been sitting around on my disk, collecting the bit-dust.

I have finally remedied this issue, converted the photos to appropriate sizes and ...

In today's day and age I still find myself drawn to the old music from times before I was born. It's an interesting thing that with all the technical improvements and with the increased availability of musical instruments, mostly due to drops in prices, the old songs can still heat your heart much more than ...

Or... How to learn (the hard way) that some applications are simply lagging behind in terms of security...

Anyway, I've been back working on my Free Software X.509 Cookbook, and started writing about setting-up an <a href="http://www.ejbca.org/">EJBCA</a> OCSP responder, when I found myself hitting the wall while trying to set-up use of SSL ...

Seeing that the <a href="http://www.libreoffice.org/">LibreOffice</a> package has been just "soft-masked" as testing in Gentoo, I've decided to uninstall the <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/">OpenOffice.org</a> and give it a go. I was particularly interested about the support for <em>OOXML</em> standard (sic). This started off yesterday in what was supposed to be a simple and fast ...

With this year's <a href="http://fosdem.org">FOSDEM</a> conference finally over, I'm back to Serbia, and I've finally managed to get some time to put down my impressions after resting a bit.

I've flown into Brussels on Friday, February 4th, and checked in a nice little hotel called <a href="http://www.beausitebrussels.com/">Hotel beau Site</a>. It was ...

My last year's impressions from the <a href="http://www.fosdem.org/2011/">FOSDEM</a> were quite positive, and the entire trip to Brussels and staying there has been very pleasurable. I was really enjoying the change and the chance to find myself amongst people who share similar views on software development like I do. Thus, it comes to no ...

You have ''got'' to hate if when you forget to update a file during Drupal upgrades. After the last Drupal upgrade I've forgot to redploy they old .htaccess file for the Gallery2, which resulted in Gallery being effectively inaccessible from the main site (unless the visitors ''knew'' the alternative link).

Luckily, I wanted to take ...

Just as I was checking out the <a href="http://www.fsdaily.com/">FSDaily</a> feeds for the past two days, I've ran into disturbing news about <a href="https://savannah.gnu.org/">Savannah</a> project being <a href="http://www.fsdaily.com/Community/Savannah_and_www_gnu_org_downtime">compromised</a>. For matters to be worse, what got compromised was the entire user credentials database, which means that whoever had managed to get ...

UPDATE (TL;DR) Given somewhat recent activity in comments area, figured I might fix formatting of the post and provide a small update.

In short, Western Digital disks ship with a feature that might reduce the lifetime of your disks (original idea being to reduce power consumption). This happens because of how often the disks park ...
