My TCS site

So now I have a site at the Theoretical Computer Science Lab in HUT.

Internet on Train

I`m writing this on a train from Tallinn to Viljandi (operated by Edelaraudtee). Yes, we have Internet on trains, although available only to passengers in the first class. The difference between first and normal class is extra 10 krones for the ticket and loud radio music. And WLAN Internet access.
It takes approximately 2,5 hours to get to Viljandi (as much as by bus) because the train stops very frequently. Still, I prefer going by train, because there is more room for legs and no worries about the crazy traffic on Tallinn-Tartu highway. I only hope that someday there will be smooth tracks and less stops which would make traveling by train to Viljandi even more appealing.

Ubuntu Trash

Recently I noticed that my laptop's harddrive fills up for no apparent reason. Although I deleted all the files from Trash, the harddrive was still filling up. As it turns out, the reason for this is that some applications (in my case Wine) use .local/share/Trash instead of .Trash in user directory.
The solution was to delete .local/share/Trash (which freed ~20 Gb of space on my drive) and replace it with a symlink (shortcut) to the .Trash directory that Ubuntu uses. This way all files sent to the "wrong" trash folder end up in the right one, where the user can manage them.
