So I went to a double feature last night.
Inglorious Basterds sucked. Seriously. It fucking sucked. If this movie is even remotely representantive of what Quentin Tarantino’s films are like then the guy is seriously overrated. I certainly don’t mind violence in movies, but 1) the acting was shit, could be the actors’ faults [...]
I wish this were Photoshopped

This is a sign that has been hanging on a local gas station since it opened over a year ago.
This gas station is on Washington Rd in Augusta, GA near I-20.

In either 2000, or 2001 I built a computer as cheaply as I could (but avoiding known-to-be-shit parts) and dropped RedHat Linux 7.0 into it. Thus was born The Headlesspenguin. A monitorless Linux box acting as an internet gateway, a file server, and various other capacities along the way.

Well, I thought I’d found a way to get my url, my web server software, and everything else working through my current network set up — port forwarding! It’s set up according to instructions, but doesn’t work. So I’ve just given up. PCs will no longer be used by me except for [...]

The rewritten 2nd chapter isn’t typed yet due to a) laziness, b) the power supply for my laptop died c) this is Georgia, officially summer, and therefor ungodly fucking hellified hot so is hard to work up enthusiasm to expend energy to breathe — let alone read my handwriting.
The unnamed Diary thing a) has [...]
Damned PCs

Well.. The Unnamed Diary Story… thingy is a dead link at the moment. Why? Because the damnable Dell that was the server for it decided it was great fun to shut itself off every hour or so. I moved everything to an old computer I had lying around, but it has [...]

So here I sit a little over 1 year from getting my shiny “new” PowerBook G4 and I think about what I’ve learnt.
First off, let me say that I’ve been using computers since 1989.
My first computer was a Packard Bell Legend IV with a 286 12MHz with 1Mb of RAM and a 40Mb HDD. [...]
