SSH without a password

Matt — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 05:36:38 +0000

I always forget this, so I’m putting it here in case I need to refer to it in future:

cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub | ssh remote_host 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'

If I was a member of the Basem...

If I was a member of the Basement Jaxx I don’t think I’d tell anybody about it.

The photos just keep on coming

Pop Off the Penguin

Matt — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 07:24:27 +0000

So I came across an animation I made when I was exploring Adobe Premier a few years ago. It’s about a penguin who sets off from Penguin Planet to colonise Earth, and a “bad guy” penguin who tries to stop him. So sit back and enjoy the mediocrity that is Pop Off the Penguin, episode 1.

There was an episode 2, and I’d started work on a third, but these seem to be lost to time and I don’t expect to see them again.

What's my IP address?

Matt — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:02:13 +0000

Do you often sit around wondering what your IP address is? You totally do, don’t you? Don’t lie. Well, wonder no longer, and head on down to http://ip.mmizzi.com/.

My toilet is revolting

Matt — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 21:03:51 +0000

Toilets have simple jobs. They sit around all day, then when somebody needs to they come and defecate in them, and the toilet swallows it up. As jobs go, it’s hardly the most exciting, but surely more interesting than that of a basin or kettle.

Sometimes, the toilet’s job just isn’t enough excitement for a toilet, and it decides to revolt. In the case of my toilet yesterday, it decided to express its rebellion by slowly filling its bowl up to and beyond the point where the water overflows onto the floor. What a fucking bastard.

Nokia E75 bluetooth

Matt — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 07:42:37 +0000

So the otherwise awesome E75 has some bluetooth issues. It seems it doesn’t want to connect to car kits.

One solution mentioned on the forums is to delete a bunch of saved SMS messages. It sounds silly, but for me at least it seems to have worked. I had some 2,000 messages in my inbox plus 200 sent messages. I deleted them all but the last 10 or so in the inbox and suddenly my phone connects to my shiny new MEX BT2750!

Ooh, pretty

Hey look, the whole site’s a little bit less ugly.

Publisher files on Linux

Matt — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 18:51:16 +0000

Just putting this here for future reference, or in case anybody else finds it useful.

It seems impossible to open MS Publisher files on Linux (and I guess on Windows too if you don’t have Publisher), but convert.neevia.com will conveniently turn them into PDFs for free! Yay!

Ultrasound

Matt — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 19:56:20 +0000

Had an ultrasound on Friday, turns out the baby’s a girl, so now it looks like we don’t need to worry about boys’ names.

So check out these, the first photos of Amelia Rose Mizzi, due to be born on April 21 next year.
