I’m a nerd. Everyone who visits here should know that. As such, I tinker with everything I have and usually find its limits sooner or later. This is how I have come to appreciate the .Net framework from Microsoft. Honestly, such unity is awesome. It seems rather large and...

Catching up and I’m a moron
A while ago I promised 2 little scripts. Well, one of them is the source of the index file i use for the cardamar mirror (Source Code). Since I wanted a bit of writing to go with it, i’ll just put it in here: the script is reletively simple....
Tales of Simple Overclocking
Anyone who knows me knows that I generally won’t make my computer unstable for any reason. This doesn’t mean I won’t help another person do it. The following is our little adventure with an AMD Athlon X2 3800+ (Stock 2.0 GHz) on an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe. As usual, try...
Site Status and Imagine Cup
Yesterday, the entire server was offline for a few hours for expected maintenance. Sorry for any inconvienance. It appears that the server upgrade will go on at the same time as this server is running so this site shouldn’t go down again until I go to transfer it. The...
Zend Studio 5: More or Less Review
I can’t call this a full fledged review because I don’t have anything set up to really review the new features. At first glance, the improvements seem small. They are not by any means. CVS/Subversion has been integrated. If you happen to be working on a server with this...
Zend Studio 5
It’s officially out of beta! Latest and greatest version of Zend Studio is available. You can go and see a list of the enhancements on the linked page. I’ll download it and try it out later and then write up whether someone whose liscense ran out should re-up. (I...
Spammers, Please read. Rest, Just skip first paragraph
Again to spammers: I will allow you to have your own personal link as your website. Hell, you can even say something along the lines of “Nice site. Check out mine.” with or without ONE link to your site but not with an ad for it. If I continue...
Old Habbits
I’ve always tinkered with media players and so forth. I was thinking that if I do change servers, I’m probably going to want to run a shoutcast type server for kahvi stuff. I always loved jetCast for that (from jetAudio). It’s not the cleanest, but it’s super easy to...
Bye Flock
Well, I put in my time with Flock. I tested and left feedback for the developers. Now I’m back in Opera. I like it here. It’s stable, renders things, has most of what I want built in. I miss some of the features of Firefox… but I’ll deal. Hell,...
Operating Systems
While doing other things, I frequently enjoy playing with operating systems. My latest trial was with Arch Linux. I was trying to get this set up on my laptop. It seemed like a reasonable request. Installation was annoying. It failed half way through installing the packages the first time....
