Since I have looooooooong, strong roots with debian (all my servers are debian), I decided to give it's desktop cousin ubuntu a try. It was easier than windows. Really. The latest example which prompted me to make a post was this belkin wireless G usb stick. I'm going on vacation and it's...

My laptop came with cyberlink dvd and a burning program called power2go. Been using it to burn some dvds. Saved the session and when I later re-opened it, all the files were greyed out. WTF. So I open the session file and the files are stored as "\File\filename.ext". No mention of a path...

Microsoft really screwed up. Vista is garbage. Utter garbage. Useless. It makes xp look like they actually had everything right. The drivers don't work worth a damn. The wireless connection keeps dropping out. Every single time you attempt to do something, it asks permission. And it...

I converted a 350W ATX computer power supply to provide me with a 12vdc source for some radio equipment (it's meant to be powered by your car). This will give me 15 amps @ 12vdc. Put the PS_ON wire on a switch that gets pulled to ground, put an LED with 330ohm resistor on the POWER_GOOD wire...

Forgot to mention...on Feb 10th I passed my written exam for a technician class amateur radio operator license. Waiting for the slow ULS to get my callsign. <P ID="signature"><marquee direction=right scrollamount=10></marquee></P>

Thunderbird is starting to lose my endorsement. Apparently when you have a LOT of email, it chokes. I SO don't want to go back to outlook...but at least outlook works. It will randomly stop displaying new message notifications...the folder doesn't show an updated message count and the popup...

I've been contributing to wiki...wrote a few articles on what I do for a living, added actual dates and links to the zd wiki, helped revert vandalism.....but the amount of vandalism is insane. EVERY SINGLE TIME you reload that changes page, there's 5 vandals doing something. It's like a losing...

I've never been on any meds. I'd occasionally need "the pink stuff" as a kid, and very rarely ever needed a prescription as an adult. My eyes are really dry and itchy. One eye got a little puffy. I went to the opthamologist, who happens to be a very cute young lady, and she said I had an eye...

Why is it that EVERY cd-r, dvd-r, cd, dvd, etc drive SUCKS? EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. Now this stupid dvd-r drive just disappears from windows...completely gone at random times. Do you think we could make a freaking optical drive that fails for an optical reason? <P ID="signature"><marquee...
