I should’ve been doing something productive, but I was wasting time on a stupid quiz site. Surprise! I always score high on the “guy side” of these stupid things because they assume that if you’re not a neurotic, overly emotional wreck, you must be a man. I got only 80% on the punctuation of this […]
Ah, it’s so difficult to be a fucking genius…I don’t know how I manage. 😀 Someone else fixed the Music plugin for aMSN so that it had support for Rhythmbox, and since I do use Rhythmbox as my “music manager”, that was fine, but when I just want a player, I use Audacious. The plugin […]
P. wants to learn Spanish, and it will be easier for him if he has someone with whom he can practice. I don’t necessarily give a shit about speaking Spanish, but…meh, whatever. I have Rosetta Stone, but it wasn’t installed, so I decided to install it. Of course, it runs only on Windows, so I […]
Jesus has an iPhone. So does Lars. Dork sent me this (well, a full-size version) from the beach on Friday, the beginning of a two week holiday, which began the day he got the iPhone, which came two weeks after his three week holiday. I replied with “i h8 u & u suk 2,” because […]
I’m so awesome that I can’t even stand it! Hee! I told L. yesterday that I’d love to have a MBP like he does, and I suppose on some level, I would, but I think I’d still keep using Linux because it’s almost as awesome as I am. If you’re willing to sort through the […]
I’m actually glad I decided to install openSUSE 11.0 because….YaST is usable! If it’s significantly slower than Synaptic, I can’t tell, and since I enabled Packman and a couple of other community repos in addition to the official ones, I was able to install Skype and aMSN without having to install dependencies package-by-package. All I’ve […]
I had openSUSE 10.3 on the laptop, but I hate YaST so much that I vowed to put Ubuntu 8.04 on there this time. Then, I thought I’d “just check” the current version of openSUSE. It turned out to be 11.0, and being something of a nerd, I couldn’t resist “just getting the torrent”, then […]
Can I help it if I’m constructed of 110% pure nerd-awesome? Of course not; I must simply accept my fate. 😀 After WebcamXP crapped out on me for no reason (I didn’t do anything, it just didn’t work after I’d shut down one day, then booted the next), I tried to figure out what was […]
I wanted a video from PBS because it had Alex the African Grey parrot in it. I didn’t want the rest, so my plan was to let it load in Mplayer within Firefox, then save a copy and edit out everything except the bit with Alex. PBS, however, doesn’t allow their videos to be saved, […]
I hadn’t checked Scout in a while, so I did on Monday. The reason that B. makes such a big deal out of it is because he is in some sort of competition with S.. Why? It’s a guy thing, I guess, though I don’t think S. is aware that there’s a competition. Anyway, there […]
