My roommate and I have started a podcast called "GeekNights with Rym + Scott". He's Rym and I'm Scott. It's sort of a late night talk show for geeks. We cover all sorts of topics including, but not exclusively: anime, video games, technology, gaming, science and just about anything else geeks like us are interested in.
Do you like to play board games like Puerto Rico, Settlers, Tigris+Euphrates, etc.? Are you located anywhere in the vicinity of Dutchess County, NY USA? If so, me and my roommate are looking for you!
I wrote something in my blog that I think is really great, so I put a linky here in the journal.
I think the title of this says it all. I'm having trouble finding a USB switch that satisfies my needs. I basically need to switch two USB2.0 devices (keyboard and mouse) between 3 or more computers. The solution has to be os independent, none of that windows software for the switching. Normally I would need a KVM, but my monitors handle the V quite nicely on their own. However, I wouldn't be opposed to a reasonably priced KVM solution if it did the USB switching properly and the price was ri
I realize I haven't put anything here in a long time. I've pretty much completed my transition from
There is a new anime called "Speed Grapher". I wrote a review of the first episode in my blog. Its not fantastic like FMA, but its the only new show I know of that's worth watching.
An article sayign software patents are good.
Everyone e-mail this idiot to shut him up. He's got the same old economist arguments that ignore the fundamental differences of software. He actually seems like a reasonable intelligent person, so enough intelligent e-mail might actually turn him over.
Not only did I completely redesign my website and my blog but I got a job also.
As I am graduating and receiving my BS in Computer Science very soon, I need to find a job before I have to make student loan payments. I wrote more about it in my blog.
I got a domain, yay. Now despite all my constant moving that will happen after college you will still be able to find me. the domain is apreche.net. So don't bother visiting protoman.rh.rit.edu, even though that will still work until I move out.
Update all your links to apreche.net so http://apreche.net/blog is my blog, etc.
I will setup e-mail later.
I made a new piece of software today. It's a rather small ruby script. It goes through my gaim logs and parses out any URLs for the current day. Then it creates an rss feed from those URLs. I use cron to upload this rss feed to my webserver every half-hour or so. It's very helpful for myself because if someone sends me a link it ends up in my live bookmarks. It can also be helpful to others who want to see what everybody's talking about.
I switched my parents to Linux. And all is well. Could it be that the best way to switch people to Linux is to force it upon them? I envision it like windows users have a disease and Linux is the best medicine. But it tastes bad and they don't want to take it. But once you force it down their throats they are no longer ill and they'll thank you for it later.
If you read my journal or blog you know what I think of most MMOs. You might also know I have been searching for a new MMO idea that would really blow them away. I wanted an original concept for a new game that would truly be a work of art.
Rejoice. That idea has come. And to commemorate this event I am doing a three-part blog series.
Yeah, that's right. You heard me. FUCK THE TROOPS
If all else fails, lower your standards.
