I’ve set up RADIUS and my apps are lucky.

Well, the Academy of Arts in Groningen now has a working RADIUS server and RADIUS-enabled access point. It was fun to set it all up. In case you’re reading this, hey Martin (I hope I spelled your name right)! RADIUS is just pure fun. I can’t encourage people to just go around messing with FreeRADIUS, but it’s actually quite easy to set up (not really has an up-to-date GUI solution yet, but that’s why people like me exist) and use. What it does out-of-the-box, for the Academy, at least, is ensuring people that associate with wireless access points get sandboxed, and people with a valid MAC address as defined in RADIUS’ users file get intranet and internet access.

Now, my apps (especially Fortitude) got lucky today. I’ve got my hands on the very first PowerPC Mac to ever be regularly in my house. I consider this Mac to be one of the best designs of Apple, and it’s quite iconic because of a female illustration made with this design. Without further ado, I present you the G4;

It’s a nice machine, that I can (and will) expand in memory, HD’s, and even it’s disc drive abilities. I can plug my existing GPU in there, which I know works well with Linux. It’s very cool. Now, to test out this baby…
