Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: April 2012
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Sunday, April 22, 2012. An Ideal Dieting Strategy - Lazy Dieting. DISCLAIMER: I am no doctor/dietitian, and everything in this post could probably kill you, and you cant hold me responsible for it! Oday I came across a news report about extreme dieting using a fricking feeding tube. So why do we cheat on a diet, when we know we want the results so bad? It is simple. dieting is TOO FREAKING HARD. Right? For example, earlier my diet used to consist of sprouts, but...

Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: March 2010
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. 32 bit build environment on 64 bit Linux machines. Generally we come across many application which were designed only for 32 bit operation. Although any 32 bit program can be compiled in a 64 bit environment, sometimes the makefile design makes this a huge pain to do. So sooner than later, we end up with a program which just would not compile in a 64 bit environment. Ln -s /etc/mock/fedora-12-i386.cfg /etc/mock/default.cfg.

Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: Sakleshpur Green Line Trek - Childhood dream come true
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2010/07/sakleshpur-green-line-trek-childhood.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Tuesday, July 13, 2010. Sakleshpur Green Line Trek - Childhood dream come true. Ever since I visited Araku Valley by train when I was small child, I loved the railway ghat sections. The huge number of tunnels and bridges (since trains cannot climb anything more than a 1 in 100 grade. Compared to automobiles which can easily do a 1 in 10) make for a very entralling experience. So when my trek mates from the Kottebetta trek. And everyone scrambled to the side of t...

Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: Fixing high pitched audio in youtube video
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2010/04/fixing-high-pitched-audio-in-youtube.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Fixing high pitched audio in youtube video. Anyway, I used the Download Helper plugin of firefox to download the video. But when I tried to play it with mplayer, the guy giving the lecture sounded like a chipmunk. I was unable to understand what he was saying since the voice was very high pitched and was like a tape being forwarded, but when I played it on youtube, it sounded fine. Use the opensource project scaletempo.

Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: The Bursting Oil Bubble - Aftermath
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2008/09/bursting-oil-bubble-aftermath.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Tuesday, September 16, 2008. The Bursting Oil Bubble - Aftermath. The Oil bubble has more or less burst for now as expected. The dent made by the spike of oil prices, made the American consumer more aware of the risks of owning a gas guzzler. It will be a while before this harsh lesson is forgot, which is good news. The American consumers at the Pump still see Oil at more than $4 since Hurricane Ike destroyed the refining capacity on the east coast, resulting in...

Holy Cow's "Moo"sings: January 2010
http://holycowmoos.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Whatever the Cow feels like moo-ing about. Tuesday, January 5, 2010. I have become a fan of Google Calender, and have been using it non-stop to help me remember the list of things to do etc. I previously tried to use offline stuff like M$ outlook etc, but they are well - offline. So unless I am in office I cant use them. Google calender is the next best thing after a blackberry kind of device for these alerts. Since I do not have anything close to a blackberry, I am relying on Google calender.
