Uwe Hermann | A slightly paranoid Debian developer

• Finally. I finished the Battle for Wesnoth campagin Heir to the Throne. If you're interested you can download replays of my games (425 KB). Level 23 is missing, as I accidentally deleted the replay file :(
• Some of you might already know this - SNES Mega Man X & X2 played simultaneously. "This movie is essentially constructed by taking one controller and wiring it into two SNES emulators at once. The same input is used to play both games to completion. In other words, the player plays two games simultaneously with one controller". This is a 48 minutes video. Absolutely insane!
• Interesting concept - Multi-Cursor Window Manager, "allows multiple users to simultaneously interact with a Unix desktop environment".
• Hm, invisibility...

• Back Door Found in Diebold Voting Machines. Really? Who would have thought?
• You can now say apt-get install sun-java5-jdk (and a few other packages) in Debian, as Sun has finally relaxed its license a bit. Note that it's still not free, it's just free enough to be distributed in Debian's non-free section now ;-)
• Can We Make Operating Systems Reliable and Secure?, by Andrew S. Tanenbaum. Or: How to restart an ancient flamewar...
• I reached the last level of Battle for Wesnoth, of the "Heir to the Throne" campaign to be more precise. Replays will be available when I'm through...

Battle for Wesnoth seems to become a real threat for the Debian project. More and more Debian developers get sucked into the world of elves, dwaves, orcs, zombies and mages — and only few return...

On a related note: I uploaded my Wesnoth game replays (210 KB) for everyone to enjoy. I'm currently playing the Heir To The Throne campaign and finished 16 of 26 levels so far.

For those of you who want to save the money they usually spend in the cinema — grab some beer and watch Wesnoth replays with your friends ;-)

Update 2006-06-01: Added link to the canonical location of my replays. I now provide replays for the complete Heir to the throne campaign, others will follow.
