Well it finally had to happen. Turns out that either the power supply or IDE controler died I'm no longer able to boot up into MacOS X. Sigh. Bummer eh? Fortunately it still may be under warranty. If it is it looks like it will be able to be repaired. "Yay" If not, boo! It will be the second Macintosh to die on me and I'll be most displeased. One ( Read more... )

Okay I have just downgraded myself from *BSD novice to *BSD idiot. I keep getting an error saying that there is no route to my gateway when, CLEARLY, I see blinky lights on the router that state that the gateway IS active. Okay, now you are most likely saying to yourself "You idiot Herb! Why are you talking about your network configuration on a ( Read more... )

I am currently trying to decide if I should read a book on Game Theory or the Book Metamagical Themas. Hmmm... Think I'll go with the Game Theory book.

Hopefully, I'll have an interesting entry tomorrow.

However, I will not understand for the life of me how they can have such good CGI in the movie but totally ruin the effect with some totally shitty effects. WHAT GIVES! Also I never read the books so I really have nothing to compare to. Wait, actually I have ( Read more... )

Green Olives go great with Bread n' Butter Pickles. Quite tasty. That is all for now.

I doubt that I will pass. It is somewhat depressing that I passed all of the tests and quizzes but I will fail because I failed the final exam. Oh well. I should have actually studied and recieved an A or an B in the class. Maybe everyone will do poorly and he will just give us the grade that we have from the quizzes and exams. Nah, doubtful. We ( Read more... )

Another wonderful thing about free software is that...well...it's free. I tried to install OpenBSD 3.0 today but for some unforunate reason it is detecting the drive as a BSD4.2 parition when in reality its an MSDOS partition. Sigh. So now I am forced to install via a CD-ROM drive. This however is a pain since I have to ( Read more... )
