As always at the beginning of the new year I look back at the previous
year in numbers. This year 2011.
Car
In 2011 I drove over
41,739 kilometers by car. An increase of
8.49%
compared to 2010. Based on the average diesel oil usage of my car this
amounts to over
2,343 liters of diesel oil used.
The highest speed reached with my car was around 170 km/h a decrease of 13.26% compared to 2010.
I got a total of 2 speeding tickets,
for a total amount of 108 euro (a 107% increase compared to 2010).
Speeding saved me around 71 hours, which makes the cost of speeding
around 1.52 euro per hour saved (Which still makes it economically feasible).
0 persons managed to damage my car, while it was parked. Which is 1 less than in 2010.
I cycled more than 1,089 kilometers an increase of
478.72% compared to 2010.

Speeding saved me around 77 hours, which makes the cost of speeding
around 0.67 euro per hour saved (Which makes it economically feasible).
1 person managed to damage my car, while it was parked. Which is the same as in 2009.

I am doing a lot more then before with IPv6 lately. And one of the things I ran into
was adding reverse IPv6 entries to bind. i.e. 2001:980:5e60:1:f2b5:796f:fe12:9389
should have a reverse dns entry in the 0.6.e.5.0.8.9.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. zone.
To be more precise:
9.8.3.9.2.1.e.f.f.6.9.7.5.b.2.f.1.0.0.0 PTR test.ipv6.jeroen.se.
I made a simple perl script to reverse the IPv6 IP address for me:
ipv6reverse.pl
Usage:
ipv6reverse.pl 2001:980:5e60:1:f2b5:796f:fe12:9389
Output:
9.8.3.9.2.1.e.f.f.6.9.7.5.b.2.f.1.0.0.0.0.6.e.5.0.8.9.0.1.0.0.2

Finally some time to finish this blog post. I already wanted to write it in
June. It is about how I integrated voice memos in my GTD workflow.
When I do not have access to pen,
paper or a computer I capture most ideas
and todo items in the voice memo recorder of my nokia 6600i. To make sure these
voice memos are processed I use some scripting on my Linux server at home and a
bluetooth dongle to automatically fetch these memos from my phone to the inbox
folder on my computer.
First I had to allow my Linux server (Debian Sarge) to connect to my Nokia:
- Install the bluez-utils.
- Scan for devices:
jnieuwen@sigrun:~$ hcitool scan
Scanning ...
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX jnieuwen 6600i
- Note the bluetooth address. XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX in this case.
- Connect to the device. In my case I first needed to compile the
passkey-agent
cd /usr/share/doc/bluez-utils/examples/
make
./passkey-agent --default "1234"
obexftp -b XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -l
- Type in the passkey on the Nokia (1234). This has to be done only once
fortunately.
Then I daily run to following script from crontab on my linux server.
#! /bin/bash
PATH=/home/jnieuwen/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games
export PATH
cd $HOME/inbox || exit 1
DATUM=$(date +"%s")
# TODO Get all the file names
obexftp -b XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -l "Opnamen" | grep "<file name=" | sed -e 's/.*name="//' -e 's/".*//' | while read FILENAME
do
echo ${FILENAME}
obexftp -b XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -g "Opnamen/$FILENAME"
obexftp -b XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -k "Opnamen/$FILENAME"
mv $FILENAME ${FILENAME/.amr/.${DATUM}.amr}
done
exit 0
