Maybe after I upgrade / fix my laptop, I’ll have some time to probe all my book marks on delicious and remove the dead links and re-tag the ones I’m going to keep. It’s getting to the point, now, where delicious is almost useless to me.
*sigh*
and KDE 4 still sucks / pisses me off. [...]

Jamie and I and the animals are starting to outgrow the condo. We’ve been making an effort to eliminate things we don’t need, but it’s still pretty cramped. We even still have a storage unit.
So, at this point, the market looks so friendly for buyers (prices are falling, and interest rates are pretty darn [...]

Actually, w/ KDE4. I’m just sick of the instability it introduced into my laptop. I’ve had an old partition on my drive from when the laptop’s previous own was dual booting, which is currently going to waste, too. So, this weekend, I’m making another backup of my home directory, and moving it to another machine, [...]

So, I’ve been in and out of the doctor’s office a lot over the past couple weeks. Yesterday, I went to my eye doctor again, and to my general practitioner’s office.

There is a distributed computing project based on the boinc architecture that is working to interpret data from a couple of large intereometers in the hopes of detecting evidence of Einsteins proposed gravitational waves.
I joined that project a few months back, and also joined a “team” within that project. The concept of teams within [...]

So, I’ve been running Kubuntu on my work laptop since like my second week here (can you believe it’s been almost 8 months, now?). I gotta tell you, I loved KDE 3, and I was running Kubuntu 8.04. I was in love. The only things that did not work on the laptop were the bluetooth [...]

Yah, umm. I stopped working on that when I was still working at Cognizant. Also, as it turns out, the location based services in my evdo card are not supported in the driver for the linux kernel. And frakly, I’m just too busy, it’s not that important, and there are already similar products out there [...]
