An Opera security flaw was disclosed today. Linspire update: it boots intermittantly, but now crashes. I got to see the "KDE Crash Handler" in action this afternoon. Here's what it said: "The application KDE Panel (kicker) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)." And that helps so much... NOT! And, of course, the backtrace was completely useless, also.

In other bad web news today: one of my favorite web-based diagnostic tools, Network-Tools.com, is down due to host ASP/VB scripting problems. Likewise, SamSpade.org has been down, too, off and on for awhile.   =(

We attended a Reno City Council meeting this morning, in order to receive a volunteer certificate for the Reno Clean and Green event on behalf of our local GBES Geocachers group. What I didn't know what that (Brother) Steven Wright works for the City as the Director of the Division of Community Relations (the very division that oversaw the entire cleanup event). Small world.
