Whee!

I'm enjoying a bit of geekiness here in the Computer Science lab. I've logged into my laptop from my lab machine, and forwarded X11 apps back to the lab machine so I can run Everybuddy (my AIM client) on the laptop, but have it display on the lab machine. That way I'm able to do everything with the nice monitor, but I get the program and the logs and stuff where I want them. Similarly for forwarding my web browser (because the one we have here in the lab is inferior, and doesn't have my bookmarks), and reading my e-mail. This is really cool!

Sorry, no attribution. I don't know who wrote it. I keep telling people it exists, though, so here it is in one place.

Hey, you need to show me how to do that. I'm so bored sitting through coaching hours sometimes (when they're not keeping me hair-pulling busy). Kept wanting my AIM client today.

Hiya!

Geeks of the world untie... no, wait, wrong quote. ;)

Good to see you around again, hon. Do you have YIM, or just AIM still? I've been using YIM a lot more lately. Typical username. ;) I think I'm addicted to 'deyaniera' as a nick. Silly, huh?

*hugs*

Yes, I do, with the expected username. But I'm not sure how reliable my connection is - I think it comes and goes. I use the same client for that as for AIM and ICQ, so I don't care what you contact me with; or know, sometimes.
