Gmail invites...

this time, i have several more Gmail invites to give out. any takers?

anyway, i didn't go rollerblading today; maybe tomorrow. i have decided on using fdisk to delete a partition, and then using

Partition Resizer
[ http://www.columbianet.gr/~zeleps/ ]

which supposedly can non-destructively resize an extended partition. it's not open source, but it's freeware, so at least it won't cost me. still, i'll be thankful to the software author if it works out well.

just backed up my documents, hopefully i won't have to call on them. most probably thinking of debian linux, since it's supposed to be the freest of the freedom ware.

the definition of the GPL copyleft is found here:
GNU General Public License - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
[ http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html ]

i had a discussion with james about this some time ago and i wasn't sure about the copyright stuff, but i think it's basically whoever created the software initially and releases it is the copyright holder, not anyone else who makes a modification and then releases a new product.

it's cool that i've still got the basics of hockey, can dribble the ball around. the living room is a nice place to knock the ball around at night. i'm still having this bad habit of staying up at night. it's 3:20 a.m. now and my sister isn't back yet.

so, hopefully the partition deletion goes without a hitch, and then i'll either download and burn a debian CD, or buy one.

they're supposedly showing futurama on star world on sunday at 7pm. i think it's rather late now and i'll shut down my computer and do the stuff tomorrow.
