Merry Consumermas!

With a couple of caveats, this is a great cellphone. Basically, it’s cute and full of Dick Tracy fun, but it’s also a cellphone only a geek could love sometimes. Pros: Fun.Cute.Your phone is always handy on your wrist. No more beeperlepsy!It comes with...

Gadget lust!

Check it out! It’s a teeny tiny laptop that runs linux. I could even carry it in my purse if I bought a bigger purse. I fondled one at the store today. People kept asking me if I needed help. No! Go away or I will replace you with a very small shell script! I...

Laptop switch from Ubuntu to Debian Etch.

Geek post! I’d been using Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire 3624WXCi laptop for about a year now. I really enjoyed my Ubuntu experience until I fell victim to this obnoxious bug. It took a while to manifest itself, too; the problem seemed to get worse every time they...

OpenID–it’s ba-ack!

Thanks to Mark Paschal (the author of OpenID Comments for MT), OpenID is back. I’ll probably never know why Brian’s OpenID stopped working–my guess is that it’s just borked–but the LJ account I was using to test was missing a piece in the...
