So, ironic that just after I post something about my site being down and I may not keep blogging my site goes down again. I don’t know how long, could have been days–I haven’t getting emailed site backups for days. I didn’t think it was a problem with my blog setup, I thought […]
So, with the addition of my Asus EEE, I now have a total of 5 operable computers, 4 of which I regularly use. One is my download computer/DVD player/media streamer for my television. One is a laptop that is no longer portable (bad power port) so it is permanently resigned to a dock […]
I don’t know if any of you out there use Celtx for your script-writing/preproduction/planning needs, but I have a little tip for you if you do.

They’re versatile: perfect for warehouses to track cases, scary as hell when they talk about putting them in people. They’re stupid when in credit cards. Stupid and dangerous and […]
A long, long time ago I wrote an article on RepRap, a self-replicating rapid prototyping machine. It could theoretically work with metals (metal clays) ceramics, plastics, and probably way more than that. I wondered if it would at some point be possible to create processors using this technology. I know years ago […]
The New York Times had an interesting article about Google’s seemingly overblown response to Microsoft’s bid on Yahoo!.
