Just a bit of posting, today I spent the AM sleeping in, something I don’t get to do, I had to move my music lesson to a later time so I could sleep in. Then when I got home I did more work on my Linux Laptop to get FVWM to look the way I[…]
Thanks to thomas_adam in the FVWM chat room on the FREE NODE irc network, I have gotten FVWM much closer to looking the way I want it to look. See the Screen Shot below. If you want to mess with my config file for FVWM (but as Thomas said it has alot of FVWM 1.x[…]
I am resetting up my Linux systems, and I am going back to my roots in Linux going back to Slackware and will be using FVWM for my windows manager, I already know how I am going to set it up. I am going to do a 4×4 pager with the pager in the upper[…]
Well I have started to clean up my LinkedIn account might take a few days, deleted a bunch of “contacts” in there, last night I cleaned up my Delicious account. Going to try go get all the social network stuff I have going organized correctly. Also I am not going to be one of those[…]
Remember when blogs were the thing (kind of funny to ask that on a blog) well I have moved my RSS reading from a program to Google Reader so I can not only read it on my computer but also I installed the Google Reader on my Android Phone so I can keep up with[…]
Well it has been over a month now since I ditched Direct TV in favor of the cheaper Ruko. I am enjoying it, plus the savings of $80 a month is nice, I have had to put a block on my cell phone against their “customer retention” number as they are calling 10 times a[…]
I know it “old” but I still think it one of the nicer windows managers out there for X-windows and as of today I am back using it. What is nice about it is that it is light and does not take many system resources. I really do not like where Gnome and KDE are[…]
Years ago I got an iPod, and since then I been enslaved by iTunes. Well in the last year Apple has said that they are going to kill the iPod classic, and one of their executives has been quoted saying that the iPod had a good run but now it time to buy an iPhone.[…]
Well it is day 5 with the Roku device, and I been working with it. In my last post I noted that the 2 shows I wanted that I could not find on Roku are The Simpsons and Regular Show. The second one I have found on Amazon’s Streaming Video service, so now the only[…]
I don’t like paying so much for a TV subscription. I am thinking of ditching the TV subscription, so today I picked up a Roku 2 XD. I also got a NetFlix account, and added a bunch of TV series. So far there are only 2 shows that are currently on that they don’t have[…]
Just because this is something that should get out there, a while back some hackers broke into peoples computer and did some DNS look up changes to victoms computers. See http://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/2011/november/malware_110911 for info on how to check your computer. If you use IE you really need to check to make sure you are safe (I[…]
I have suffered with this issue for 4 days now, where even with a active internet connection the facebook App for Android will report “no internet connection” I finally solved it, first this will require that you have your device rooted, and a copy of Titanium Backup (not sure if you need pro or not,[…]
I have lived with this for over a year now, I went out to find the solution, and found one that worked for me, and I will post it here so others can find it. First connect to a WiFi spot, when it is unable to get data, reboot. Next leave the WiFi area, and[…]
I posted over the weekend about the new tablet I got, I am impressed with the battery life. It probably has a longer on since it not connected to the cell system, and that when it “sleeps” it turns of the wifi, so it better with the battery then my cell phone. Today I unplugged[…]
I got a new Tablet today, a Toshiba Thrive. It is a nice system it has a 10.1″ screen on it, I also got a bluetooth keyboard to go with it. I have a case that can convert it to a stand up, making typeing stuff on it nice, without having to have a fool[…]
Well as I wrote a bit ago I would be posting here more then on facebag and twitter. Well that has held true. Ot also means I am posting things a lot less as a blog post takes a bit more thought. Also the key here is I have not gone on social “media” as[…]
China is no friend of the US, in fact they are still officially an enemy of the US, and here is what their state media said. Now why would a enemy the the US be happy Sleepy Joe won? Could it be they have bought him off (via Hunter)? Could it be he will sell[…]
I know people are excited about digital only consoles, but there are many good reasons to avoid them. First what do you do when the store closes down? Try to go download a game you bought on a Wii from the digital store now. You can not as it is completely shut down, you can[…]
Looks like others have realized we do need to decentralize the internet again. Tim Pool recently got “demonitized” by facebag. He has setup his own site at https://timcast.com Tim Pool is a person that does commentary on the news. He is one of the places I get my news from, another is the No Agenda[…]
There is is a major problem brewing on the internet, and that is of big tech censorship. And we are to blame for it (yes i am guilt of the issue i will state here too) WE have allowed the internet to become centralized. The internet is no longer a decentralized network of computers where[…]
I got the PS5 back on Nov 12, 2020. I have played a few games on it. As I don’t see much for updated graphics from my PS4 Pro, I am sure they are there I just don’t see them, I am seeing a massive improvement on the load times. One of the games I[…]
First Connecting the controller well that was a pain, apparently stadia does not like it when you use Pi-Hole (a good anti-ad in home DNS server that runs on a Raspberry Pi) I had to disable the Raspberry Pi to get it connected (I was able to re-enable it after the set up, but mind[…]
The new PS5 is coming out. And this is the first time I very tried to pre-ordered a game console. I see many content creates complaining that they did not get first dibs on the new consoles. For that I am thankful as it means us no bodies had a chance to get one. I[…]
