Journal Journal: Huh, it has been quite awhile since I posted here 8
Anyone still lurking around this place? I see several people are still active here.... quite a huge pile of names I have not seen in a long long time.

Lately, I'm seeing more and more "reign in" on Slashdot and I've got to say, I'm disappointed.
I need a new system on which to run asterisk, bonus points if I don't have to configure it from scratch. I'd like to spend less than $200 (ideally I'd pick up something used if necessary for $100) but I have storage devices available, whether CF, SD, USB, or what have you. It can have wireless, but it doesn't have to because I have a routerboard for that. I have found my pogoplugs to be unreliable at best.
Turned 0x30 on Christmas Eve. That sounds better than 48. I expect to start acting 20 when I hit 50.

Not so well, huh? India is usually cited as one of the Green Revolution's successes, but it's easy to watch the ongoing failure.
I decided to try out nosupportlinuxhosting but they appear to have suspended hyperlogos.org without notice or explanation. I sure hope I don't have to issue a chargeback, that would be stupid. I'm already waiting for Amazon to process two returns that have been sitting around at their facilities for weeks.
I'm not talking about the content, that has always been shit
I'm talking about what happens when I try to modify my relationships.
OK

Of course I reported the error. Of course I never heard back. Now I'm seeing it again.
Slashdot is basically unusable without friends/foes lists.
Subject says it all. If I can't read your content without javascript, either you are an idiot, or you're evil, or you're an evil idiot.
Google will tell you that their collection of "anonymous" location statistics is opt-in. That is, technically, true. However, on Gingerbread it is not opt-out. Once turned on, there is no option to disable it, that was added later. That, or I have forgotten all I once knew about google-fu. I can find how to change your mind about this on ICS, but not on GB.
I became curious (about Slashdot achievements, silly) and searched to no avail. Anyone have any clue?

Pretty sure this time I offended an iFanboi.
Too bad you can't tag things "slashdot"
Every time I get a modtroll I get validation. Here are the five comments in question, all downmodded in a row by someone too lazy to even spread out their punitive moderation.

I should very much like to demand satisfaction from people who are badly in need of correction. Namely, those who use insults against me in lieu of argument. (I am not above answering insult with insult, of course.) When are we going to get internet VR boxing, so that I can realistically challenge some random dipshit who talks a lot of shit to a boxing match and announce his cowardice should he decline?
For God's sake, stop researching for a while and begin to think!
