Sure it is difficult

This week is being far from easy. And my thoughts are in another place. Yeap, that place in Europe.
And to make things harder, this song started playing.
OpenSim – The definitive guide (sort of)
Sep 2nd
Aside from my M.Sc. degree, I am working on a project involving Virtual Worlds. For that, we are using OpenSim as the simulation server. While my server is fully functional now, not everything was easy. In fact, it was a bit complicated. Its configuration took more than a week (thanks to my ignorance and also probably laziness). Now that my server is up and running, I have compiled some instructions into this guide in order to help people overcome some problems in installing it. My focus is going to be in installing the server in Grid Mode with Hypergrid support on a machine with direct access to the internet, i.e. not behind a NAT (sorry for being so specific, but I’m only reproducing the steps I took to get it working).
Cine PE 2009
May 2nd
Pelo menos acabei indo para o Cine PE esse ano. O documentário “Alô, alô, Terezinha!” de Nelson Hoineff foi muito massa e engraçado, principalmente a Índia Potira dançando nua numa fonte, no meio da praça, em 2007 (imaginem a idade dela e a cena).

Ubunchu!
Apr 13th
Hiroshi Seo is the writer behind the Ubunchu! manga series. From the about page:
“Ubunchu!” is a Japanese manga series featuring Ubuntu Linux.
Three school students in a system-admin club are getting into Ubuntu!
The series is completely open sourced meaning that translations to other languages can be done. It is originally written in Japanese, but an English version is available at DoctorMO’s Blog.
I haven’t checked it yet, but I think it’s worth to follow his updates on this series.

Digg Dialogg is a internet show where Kevin Rose interviews some “notable leaders and luminaires”. The questions are submited by Digg users, so no editor or journalists drive the interview. The episode #4 has Trent Reznor as guest and the interview can be watched bellow.
Lego everywhere
Apr 8th
Lego nowadays is an ubiquitous thing. Seriously. Everyone can be impersonated in Lego.
See for yourself Stephen Hawking in his Lego version.
