spam rules

By Hal Canary

These are my new spamassassin rules. If your configured email client fails to have a valid DKIM or DK signature or SPF record, I’m probably going to mark you as spam.

#### .spamassassin/user_prefs
required_score -1.0
score DKIM_VALID_AU -10.0
score SPF_PASS -5.0

99% of my legitimate correspondents are okay already.

not lost; zoo; bike

By Hal Canary

I bought an inexpensive GPS Friday. It was $45 (plus $5 for a case) at CompUSA/TigerDirect yesterday. It is not the easiest thing to use, but if you make a point to bookmark all the places you are going before you leave the house, then navigating to them is fairly easy.

I’m tired of getting lost on the expressway.

We went to the NC State Zoo Saturday. It gets extra points for lots of walking paths. No reason to crowd the animals into one small area for lazy human’s benefit.

Craigslist may have destroyed the market for used bicycle shops.

I’m getting my bicycle fixed up at the shop. Probably something I should have been keeping up on over the past decade. When I’m done it’ll be like having a new bike.

sunrises

By Hal Canary

I will be moving 2.7° to the east. Therefore, sunrises will, on average, be about eleven minutes earlier! Sunrises, like tea, make it easier for me to be awake. Due to differences in Latitude, this should vary over the course of the year. For instance, today the sunrise there is 21 minutes earlier.

save the world

By Hal Canary

“I’m not sure how into the whole saving the world thing you are…”

Given a lever (truthfully) labeled “save the world,” I will pull it. I’m not confident about which levers are within my reach. I suppose I should explicitly make that one of my goals.

the plan

By Hal Canary

As of this week, I have officially made my decision to attend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill starting in the fall. I will be a graduate student and research assistant in the Computer Science Department. I have been offered a summer job in the department, and will be moving up next month to start it.

take a load off.

By Hal Canary

I now own no TV.

That thing was heavy, and I never have to lift it again.
