Random Musings - Day #302

Here's some Oddball stories for October.

Details about Solaris patching including PCA. A couple mroe scripts to help identify patch issues at bolthole and Waider

I went to the Floating Lotus and thinking that place might be a fad, I was pleasantly surprised to find food pretty decent. I particularly enjoyed the tender beef dish but the fabulous fried seafood with salt and pepper was the best.

It reminded of another place I went past whilst on a canal trip in Regent's Park called the Feng Shang Princess.

Random Musings - Day #180

Day 180 which of course the maximum score in darts and even a bus route. 180 is also 3 minutes which enough time to boil an egg.

Here's a little script useful for auditing Sun Solaris

Random Musings - Day #96

Lincoln
Currently in the Cathedral city of Lincoln. The Cathedral itself is on a hill and fortunately I am staying on the hill at the Bailhouse hotel, which has amongst other things an outdoor heated pool (though I did check it was rather cold) and free wifi. Mind you, my room doesn't some of facilities mentioned on the website (e.g. dvd and tea facilities). The restaurants and cafes in the Bailgate seem upmarket than the ones down the hill in the city centre. In fact there were a couple homeless people sitting outside shops. So quite the variety there. I went and ate at Fourteen and had a lovely soup and sausages/potatoes.

Who is Bill Bailey?
In nearby Nettleham, there is the Bill Bailey Memorial Playing Fields, which is home to non-league Nettleham FC. I was thinking surely this can't be named after the all-round funny guy/troll/klingon Bill Bailey. He's not dead yet. Sure enough, it isn't. Bill Bailey was born in Somerset! Another amazing fact is that Axel Rose is also known as Bill Bailey.

Home Office Porn
The Home Office website had a link to a porn site caused by the fact the external link's domain expired and got bought by a different dubious company.

Solaris
0xdeadbeef (which is can be a hex value if you wish) looks like a good place to gather and demonstrate vulnerabilities with Solaris systems.

Tennis
Looks like Laura Robson may have suitable competition in the years to come in the form of 14 year old Madison Keys won on her WTA debut.
