Apparently, there is an EXT2/3 driver for the win32 platform (well, NT4/2K/XP). Bout damn time, says I. And since it is a kernel mode driver, well, yay. Access across the board! Sweet. I have some FAT32 formatted partitons for my shared data, since NTFS writing using the 2.6.x linux kernel is still a bit shaky.… Continue reading EXT2/3 on win32?
Delial.
For those of you who have read House of Leaves, I present unto you Delial: This picture, which is the one Danielewski described in his book and credited to his character Will Navidson, was taken by Kevin Carter in Sudan. It won him the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography in 1994. He commited suicide a… Continue reading Delial.
where’s belen when you need her?
tonight’s dinner consisted of three pints of guinness from Molly’s, and two orders of tater-tots from 13. next month, ill have time to ride, pushing me to eat better. tomorrow morning, my A/C will be fixed, facilitating the cooking of hot foods (pasta, chicken, etc.).
And on a not totally unrelated note…
There is a special place in Hell, just down the hall from Hitler and RealMedia Player, for (powder) Non-Dairy Creamer.
Penalty! Roughing The Drinker: Ten Yard Penalty.
Alt Title: Andrei, you’ve lost _another_ submarine? Sweet Merciful Crap. Those were the fist words out of my mouth this morning, as I glanced at what was not my alarm clock. Stupid phone and stupider phone alarm clock. I awoke this morning, with a new label. Not labels such as “Linux Geek” or “Stargate Dork”,… Continue reading Penalty! Roughing The Drinker: Ten Yard Penalty.
Four Down…
Between Ben, Haley, and Erin, I gave away four pieces of pizza leftovers away tonight. I still got my fill, and have three pieces left for myself, currently sitting in my fridge. Such is the spirit of PizzaNight™, at least in my opinion. Spread the love. Well, not necessarily _the_ spirit, more like a sub-spirit.… Continue reading Four Down…
They’re off to find the hero of the day…
It’s August in New Orleans. It is currently warmer in my apartment than it is outside (80°). I have shutdown most of my development servers, my workstation, and even my switch. Running on absolute minimum hardware. I feel nekkid. Luckily, the ever-awesome A/C man is due to arrive and alleviate said problem. The plumber has… Continue reading They’re off to find the hero of the day…
World of Warcrack
Now, I’ve never played this game. Never was one who was much for RPGs. Well, there was Legend of Zelda and LoZ:A Link to the Past, but other than that, not so much. And for the record, LoZ II: The Adventure of Link sucked balls. I’m sorry. I’m a dork, geek, nerd, etc., but I’m… Continue reading World of Warcrack
Pop Tarts, Not Pop Ups or Popped Collars
As you all know, our beloved Firefox does a great job of blocking pop-ups. However, some still get through, despite the default settings These little buggers are from flash or java/javascript applets. Luckily, there is a pretty easy fix: Type about:config into the Firefox location bar. Right-click on the page and select New and then… Continue reading Pop Tarts, Not Pop Ups or Popped Collars
