I generally shy away from posting this stuff on Clapboard because politics bore me and large industries freaking out because no one needs them anymore bore me and having discussions with the brainwashed bores me, but hey!

Complete!

With the decommissioning of my old computer, I really took notice for the first time of a strange limitation in WHS – there’s no way to export an image of…

I am opposed to SOPA & PIPA. I recognize that the government has outsourced the writing of laws to the highest bidder, and I recognize that music and movie execs…

I’m looking into leaving Time Warner for our Cable internet, and decided to check on my speeds over at speedtest.net. Turns out not to have sucked too much, really.  Faster…

okay, that’s not true, maybe, but installing it is hard on my Ubuntu VM, that’s for sure.

It’s January 2012, and that seems like a really good time to upgrade my workstation.

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a real overhaul on my computer system.

I’m going to play with themes-by-week this year, and I’m starting with soups.

I’ll be happy to see this one end, if only because of my mood at the moment. Soup week is around the corner, though, and that’s more than enough incentive…

It’s Christmas again – we’re reveling in holiday cheer here in beautiful, sunny Las Vegas. I’m stuck in a bit of a debate with myself about whether to go home…
