After having tried drupal for a couple of years on an unrelated site, I came to see that it would be a great way to develop a new site for drop the bomb productions. After about two days of converting the site over, you can now see the results. I think it results in a [...]

I’ve tried a bunch of times, but apparently something’s wrong with the Syllable VMWare files and LiveCD because I was unable to get either to run. They both appear to be missing a bunch of necessary files.

When most people think of the GPL, if they think of it at all, they tend to think of Linux and perhaps other operating systems. However, there are many benefits to using the GPL for programs on a smaller level. For example there is a Go Application in Facebook. This programmer could have gone [...]

KDE 4.0 was released today! After seeing screenshots like the ones I want to share with you, I can’t wait to try it. Too bad Fedora won’t be including it until Fedora 9 in April.

Long time readers will know how much I love building computers. And I have been given the chance to build another one! This time it’s for Danielle’s aunt who saw the one I built for my father-in-law. Her old computer is not fast enough for what she needs it to do so she asked me [...]

I received Super Mario Galaxy for Christmas and I must say that I’m quite happy with the gift. This is the most talked about Wii game for the end of 2007 and not without reason. Everyone who’s into gaming kept mentioning that Mario Galaxy is the true successor to Super Mario 64 on the Gamecube. [...]

This year I decided to mainly support technological causes. I donated to the Free Software Foundation and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. I think that rms and the rest over at the FSF are really doing a lot of great work to preserve our freedoms. I especially like the Defective by Design campaign they’ve been running. [...]
