Poker Night
It's time like this that I really just love getting out of F-Town. I'm out at my friend Tyler's place just playing a relaxing game of poker. I just really like being out with Tyler and zorben enjoying decent banter between us. It's most shit about hacking and tech. Us geeks gotta stay together though, sometimes we are all we have for this sort of thing. ( Read more... ) -
Because Everyone Loves A Scratch & Dent Sale
This just came in over the Register feed. I just felt the need to throw my own two pence out there ( Read more... ) -
So Many SKUs, So Little Brains
Just caught this out of the Engadget feed. You know, gimme a day off and I will read tech news or play WoW. But I'm waiting until my flatmate's at work before the latter so I may use his gaming PC. For those that didn't hit the link, Microsoft is once again planning to release multiple SKUs of Windows 7. Now, while I don't mind this at all, the ( Read more... ) -
The Good Ones
Just 5 minutes ago, I just got ride in work from some random old guy. Kinda leaves me wondering why more people don't do stuff like that. I mean has the American public just gotten so fucking paranoid that they don't trust anyone anymore? It's a little sickening to realize that, but it is the truth. So when people like unknown driver do things like ( Read more... ) -
Playing Around In A Box
This morning I got my invitation to Boxee. I've been waiting patiently like all of the other people using Windows. Kinda nice to see Linux and Mac get something cool before Windows users. But I got my invite and started playing with it. My name on Boxee is the same as it is here. It's nothing more than a social networked front end to XBMC, so I ( Read more... ) -
Reading Comprehension
I'm left starting to wonder if anyone can read. Seriously. Earlier today, a customer asked me where the stuffing was. Thankfully for her, I was right outside that ailse and pointed her down it. The thing is, we have a general overview of what's in a given ailse, so someone shouldn't really be asking about the basics like beer, stuffing, or soup. ( Read more... ) -
Of The New Year
Well, here we are at the beginning of a new year. Now while I normally don't hold hope out too much hope for anything food, I am confident that 2009 will be a much better year. I hope that everyone's celebrations were responsible ones, bit again, there is the matter of diminished hopes.

Drunken Passions
Here it is, the end of the year. Guess what I keep seeing flying off the shelves here at work? Booze, booze by the cartload. So I'm just wondering, what is the appeal of getting utterly ratassed on the last calender day of the year? Really, I keep asking myself that and I can't seem to find any sort of good answer. So tomorrow, I guess I'm going to ( Read more... ) -
LANing It Up!
Here's a few pics from what I'm calling 'Fragington Geekmeet'. There are going to be a few more images as soon as Valen sends me what he's got. We started at 1800 last night and after a few annoyances with a shitty AP and some power cable problems, we got everything up and running with an epic bout of win. We had a grand total of 4 laptops and 3 ( Read more... ) -
A Matter Of Preperaton
Once again, I see just how dumb the average customer can be. It's the day before Christmas and everyone seems to be in a mad dash to get what they need for tomorrow. So I sit here just a little curious as to why more people go into this day so utterly unprepared. Year after year, we see this brand of chaos that seems to be all consuming. Yet we ( Read more... )
