Yeah, I sure am. First of all, a late happy new years to you all. Second, I got my Google Voice invite today. I’ve been waiting for like, two months or something, but it was worth it. Anyway, I did the first part of the Android Notepad Tutorial, which is the full-blown, [...]

Well, I got my media center to work. It involved switching OS’s AGAIN. Now I’m on Element OS, an alpha-stage derivative of Ubuntu (elementmypc.com). I bought a Wii Remote and Wireless sensor bar (which really just means it’s battery powered) for $60, and ordered a USB extension cable (15 ft), a usb hub (4 ports) and a [...]

The update finished successfully. The gosh darn index.php got me again, but I sure fixed it! (Oh, how much I hate that blank PHP script… SILENCE ISN’T SO GOLDEN!!!)
Anyway, it works

I am going to upgrade Wordpress, upon which this site is based, to version 2.9 TODAY. It requires that I disable all plugins, so the site’s “image” may change dramatically back and forth in the next few hours.
Just letting you know.
Plugin dissablement should start in about 40 minutes, so I thought I’d let you know!

Well, let me get the sad out first. My grandpa died this afternoon. The good news is that I got the Droid this weekend. I’m out for winter break starting Saturday, and plan to pick up a tower defense game that I started this spring, and never really worked on. I also plan to play [...]

I don’t really have that much to say, just updating you guys out there.
I’m switching (right now) my linux installation from Linux Mint to Mythubuntu. No, I like Mint, but I decided that I wanted a good HTPC. Boxee was having weird issues running on Mint (I have no idea why) and I had to [...]

Well, before I get to the whole Linux deal, I might as well mention some changes to the website. If you look up, you’ll see a cool image, which I made. There are also minor improvements with the site, and I’m setting up forums (I may decide not to, but you can check them so [...]

I’ve moved the site from the old subdomain to the main domain, added a redirect, and caused it to become a real website, instead of just a blog. The only thing that is really affected by this change besides the site itself (which is set up to redirect anyway) is the RSS feeds. Simply switch [...]
