Lair of the Wolf

Well, not great, not bad either. I personally was hoping the Eagles would win, just cause the Patriots have been there and done that 2 times before in the last 3 years, but oh well.

Halftime was better than I expected, I figured the NFLs safe pick of Paul McCartney would result in a so-so halftime show, but it was well done, even though Fox could've done much better with the video work of the fireworks and overhead shots of the LED stage.

Well, today I can't think straight, and if I try to force it I just get tired and wanna go back to sleep. This isn't particularly good.

Current Mood: Restless and Confused

Music: Shinedown - All I Ever Wanted

I lie here alone and wonder why
That I come alive, just before I half to hide.

Because I believe I'm losing my nerve
But could I ever do better than this

Because all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
All I ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines and the storms feel free to roam

I listen if only for a while
But I can't decide if I'm aware that I'm on trial

Because I believe I'm losing my nerve
But could I ever do better than this

Because all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
All I ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines and the storms feel free to roam

If there's a way to a remedy then lead me straight to it
If there's a path or a door I missed, then show me now, show me this

Because all I ever wanted was a place to call my home
To shelter me when I am there and to miss me when I'm gone
All I ever wanted was a place to call my own
Where stars will dance and sun still shines and the storms feel free to roam

Feel free when I am gone

I don't think I've been doing all that well lately, though you'd probably not be able to tell by looking at me. I seem pretty normal on the outside, just a little more detached than normal..

Well, it appears RoadRunner has decided to up the downstream speeds again, this time to 5mbit max, prevously it was 3mbit max, when I first subscribed it was 2mbit. heh. I'm quite pleased, especially considering I was doing at best 1mbit before they upgraded lately. :-)

Well, irc.mozilla.org now has services, thanks to the work of Stuart.

I'm not particularly a IRC services champion, but so far, it appears that with little effort on my part, the status quo is maintained and I don't have to change any behavior on my part. (register nick, register channel, add identify command to chatzilla on startup.)

The bots were another matter though, wolfbot got a new module enabled (ServicesLogin) which works nicely with a single command to configure. Firebot, on the other hand, needed new code so he'd /msg nickserv on startup.

Though, now that firebot/wolfbot aren't needed for channel op help anymore (firebot helped out with keeping docbot +o'ed, and wolfbot did similarly to firebot in other places), I'm wondering about the practicality of keeping 2 bots running 24/7. Firebot's primary goal is Bug status announcements (for #firefox, #thunderbird and #wolfbot.), and wolfbot's is informational, RDF announcements in #spreadfirefox, tinderbox in #firefox/#thunderbird, bugzilla in #wolfbot, etc. Neither goal requires a fully dedicated bot, so I'm thinking about merging the two bots into one. They'd be more manageable, and less channel clutter. Most likely, that'd require porting firebot to be a mozbot module, bzbot.bm, and then enabling that in wolfbot (which i'd rename firebot.). I'm sure there'll be some major reason why this won't work, but its worth a shot.
