Happy unbirthday!

Oops, I guess today is not my unbirthday. But yesterday is my unbirthday. My 9106th unbirthday, to be exact.

What’s an unbirthday? Why, it’s any day that’s not one birthday, of course. It’s a term first coined in Lewis Carrol‘s novel Through the Looking Glass.

Now, how do we check how many unbirthday has passed? If you’re using Debian/Ubuntu or their derivatives, you can install python2.6-examples package, which include a script to count your unbirthday days. For other distro or OS, please refer to included manual :P

$ sudo apt-get install python2.6-examples
$ python /usr/share/doc/python2.6/examples/Demo/scripts/unbirthday.py

If you’re interested on the novel, you can download it for free from Project Gutenberg website.
