I usually try not to repost articles like this, but I never imagined an Xbox 360 in laptop form either!

School

mgs0008b221 — Tue, 08 Aug 2006 02:16:46 +0000

I start back tomorrow. So far all the classes I got are the ones I wanted. I noticed some on my schedule also, hopefully we get more of the good ones. If things go well I can get my OJT/ACE stuff worked out and go back to work the next day and get that cycle started. I guess I’ll find out how it goes tomorrow.

Update: Yep, I talked to the school about OJT and it’s all getting set up as I type.

New Job and Flock Update

mgs0008b221 — Mon, 31 Jul 2006 23:13:02 +0000

First on the agenda… I finally have a job now! I’m no longer in the lazy bum category. Hooray for me. So far it’s been fun, and everyone has interesting nick names and conversations… and the pay is nice as well.

Also, Flock 0.7.4 has been released, which implements the 1.5.0.5 Firefox security update, as well as smooths out some minor issues and making features more use friendly.

Flock 0.7.3 Released

mgs0008b221 — Fri, 21 Jul 2006 10:41:44 +0000

This is an incremental release that has some bug fixes; but notable new features include Photobucket sub-album and Flickr set browsing and uploading, photo comment signatures, and OPML export of news feeds. You can download it now, but we haven’t turned on the auto update yet because we’re probably going to release a small update to this one to fix a few bugs we found, very soon.

From the release notes:

0.7.3 maintenance release for 0.7 has bug fixes in several areas:

Photo
- Photobucket sub-album and Flickr set browsing and uploading. Allow users to refine photos displayed in photobar by album.
- Several bug fixes for photobucket and flock integration
Extensions
- Allow extensions that haven’t been modified for flock to be installed. Users will be warned that the extension has not been tested with flock but will be allowed to proceed. Note that this feature has been partially available since 0.7.1. If you have installed unmodified extensions you will see a warning, “This update will cause some of your extensions and/or themes to stop working until they are updated.”, during the upgrade which can be ignored.
Spread flock feature. Allow flock users to opt into adding a flock tagline to photos dragged from the photobar or the from the desktop into a text area
Setup (First Run) experience enhancements
- Bug fixes, better discovery of current configuration and UI treatments
- Added option to allow anonymous statistics to be gathered during initial setup. This will allow Flock to further streamline and simplify the setup experience.
Other
- Added OPML export to My News
- Blog Editor fix for editing text in source view window
- Updated to use new deli.cio.us API

Notepad – Old Fashioned Logs

mgs0008b221 — Fri, 07 Jul 2006 22:37:22 +0000

“Here’s an odd little feature I never knew was in Notepad, Microsoft’s otherwise featureless text editor: It can be used to make log files. Give it a shot: Open Notepad and type .LOG on the first line, then save the file as whatever you want. Now every time you open the file the current date and time will be appended to it, which make it super-quick to create simple texty log files for whatever you want. Of course, every word processor and many text editors have shortcut keys for inserting the date, but simplicity does have its appeal. The Microsoft knowledgebase says this feature only applies to Windows 98 and ME, but it seems to work fine in XP as well.”

Oh jeese.

So I made another MySpace last night.

Yah I know, I deleted the last one, and I still hate the site with a passion…

… but I had to make one for the band MySpace, so I could actually check out stuff without having to log into the band account.

Neglected Information

mgs0008b221 — Wed, 05 Jul 2006 02:23:13 +0000

It seems as though I’d forgotten some relatively important news.

A few weeks ago I made a decision to leave Tempest. It wasn’t caused by any one person, or any one thing, but more of a chain of events that led me to think it would be best for the guild, and myself, that I left.

It seemed more often that I was frustrated, and less often I had good quality fun, but the guild still thrives and I wish them all the best luck… as if they’d need it.

You can now find me rolling Horde sidew on Burning Legion – more specifically a Troll mage named ‘Quepasa’.

Cheers!

PS Here’s some screen of old Fio, and here’s the gear he used.
