Ok, so I've used FreeBSD for years now. I think the first version I used was 3.2 or so. I've done custom kernels, Samba, NFS, DNS, email server, apache with PHP, all kinds of fun perl stuff, and more. However, I've never done anything with disks beyond the initial installation of the system. Whenever I installed a new FreeBSD, I had the disks I was ( Read more... )

1. I noticed just now as I was checking my email and noticed that I am now using 2% of my 2050MB. That's new! Did anyone know that Gmail upped the storage to 2GB? The last time I remember noticing that, it was only 1GB. Cool ( Read more... )

I've decided that spring is by far my favorite season. This morning as I walked to my car, I found the smell outside from the previous nights rainstorm mixed with the sun poking through the soon to be blooming trees marvelous! I can't wait to see how beautiful the ATL looks in the spring. This morning reminded me of how much I missed spring in ( Read more... )

This is the second event in the past few weeks where a service I use regularly has been acquired. The first instance was Six Apart acquiring Livejournal. That's something I happen to really be in favor of and I'm looking forward to ( Read more... )

I could not believe my eyes this morning when I woke up to find it snowing like crazy! I mean c'mon people! It's mid-March in North Carolina. You'd think I was living in Boston or Michigan or something. Oh well, at least it makes driving somewhat interesting ( Read more... )

One of the many things that has impressed me about FoMoCo is the guy at the top - Bill Ford Jr. Here's a guy that didn't have to do anything to be sitting on loads of dough, but felt a sense of duty towards the company his great-grandfather founded over 100 years ago. The last few years, when Bill Ford has received compensation, he's donated it to ( Read more... )

Today at Costco I came across Guava juice. Holy cow! Now that brought back some memories. When I was growing up in the Philippines that's about all I used to drink. It came in little green juice boxes. It was soooo good! Drinking that can of guava juice tonight reminded me of riding bikes around the subdivision, taking the jeepney (that's a whole ( Read more... )

It's been quite an eventful few days. All spent at this great resort on the coast of South Carolina on Kiawah Island. Yesterday was getting ready for the event to start and the afternoon was spent at one of their 6 golf courses for a tournament (no, I didn't golf - figured that was not the place to learn). That evening, Atlanta Falcons Coach Jim ( Read more... )
