Random Geekage » question http://kevinisageek.org Randomness, geekery and whatever else I feel like Thu, 20 May 2010 10:29:06 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Pillows http://kevinisageek.org/2009/08/12/pillows/ http://kevinisageek.org/2009/08/12/pillows/#comments Wed, 12 Aug 2009 13:38:19 +0000 Kevin http://kevinisageek.org/?p=617 At home, I have a very nice (if a tad too large) memory foam pillow. This makes for very comfy sleeps. However, it is very impractical to bring such an object into the wilderness, thus a substitute needs to be found.

So far, I have tried many different objects to rest my head on: clothing “footballs” (see Patrolling s1e08 AWOL bag segment); cheap inflatable pillow and tried a camelbak last night. None of these provide the amount of support I am used to. Maybe I’m being too picky but I do find it affects my sleep while camping (wake up far too often, take ages to nod off and I always wake up far too early) so it is something I want to get sorted asap.

Suggestions?

The updated code is available for criticism/comment.

I still consider the script to be in beta. It would be nice if folk could test it and report on any errors you encounter (particularly file size related).

I am blocking php asp and python scripts as they are most likely to run on the server and are capable of owning me (which I do not want happening. What other extensions should be blocked on a Linux server?
