		<title>Installing su/Superuser.apk in ICS/Android 4.0 emulator</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To avoid the Out of memory error when trying to copy the su-executable to /system/bin, you need to start the emulator manually with a large &#8211;partion-size argument: $ emulator -avd MYNAME -partition-size 300 Then: $ adb remount $ adb push ~/Desktop/rootfiles/su /system/bin/su $ adb shell chmod 06755 /system/bin/su]]></description>

		<title>Storing times in UTC in Django</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just want to store my time values in UTC, and render them in Europe/Berlin for display, as supposedly one should, and Django, in 2011 and with 1.4 looming, still does not support this (although things may be happening). I&#8217;ve found that the simplest way to deal with this is to use a filter which [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I learned</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Gnome 3 is actually quite nice, I think I prefer it over Unity. Only if it weren&#8217;t so buggy. And had better multihead support. Unity has some pretty nice touches as well. Like the ALT+TAB&#8217;ing into a specific window of an app. Even the propriety Catalyst fglrx driver can&#8217;t properly drive a 3-head 6400&#215;1440/1200 setup [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPython with virtualenv</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ll find a bunch of different approaches to this on Google; Using an iPython boot script that extends sys.path with paths from the current virtualenv. Or calling the iPython script with the virtualenv&#8217;s python binary (python `which ipython`). They all tend to be problematic; for example, the latter doesn&#8217;t work if the virtualenv has been [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ubuntu app indicators when using PyGObject</title>
		<description><![CDATA[PyGObject and the Python appindicator module don&#8217;t agree with each other. As soon as I import &#8220;appindicator&#8221;, all objects from the gi.repository.Gtk namespaces seem to reset to what might be PyGTK, not sure. However, with gir1.2-appindicator-0.1 (on Natty) installed , you can do: from gi.repository import AppIndicator ind = AppIndicator.Indicator.new( "send-to-kindle", "indicator-messages", AppIndicator.IndicatorCategory.APPLICATION_STATUS) self.menu = [...]]]></description>
