A while ago, I installed Fedora Core 5 on my server. The only problem I had was that my gigabit ethernet card wouldn’t work for some reason. It was really frustrating because my Mac has a gigabit controller, and I wanted to be able to transfer files between the two really fast. [...]
For all you folks in the States this Thanksgiving, I’d like to say that I’m thankful for…backups.
I don’t know what happened yesterday, but I was having a problem with the MySQL server. It appeared to be taking up way too much RAM, and that was causing problems with some sites on the [...]
In an earlier post about iTunes, I wrote about how it would be nice to be able to assign keywords to songs to make smart playlists more powerful. Well, I came across a script called TuneTag for Quicksilver that does just that.
It’s pretty simple. Once you have the script in ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions, just do [...]
Well, I got a new iPod today. It’s a 1GB second generation Shuffle. I know, I said I couldn’t imagine wanting an mp3 player without a screen, but after using an iPod video for a few months and taking care of my music collection, a Shuffle kind of makes sense for situations [...]

This isn’t too big a deal by itself, but beside each of these song suggestions, there’s [...]
I said we’d probably be moving to Fredericton come spring next year, and that means it’s time to start checking out the market. The last time we bought a house it took us 3 or 4 months to find something we liked. Granted, we were looking in a pretty specific area, and that’s [...]
We’ve been seeing an awful lot of wildlife on the way to work in the past month. I’d say we’ve seen about 6 Moose and at least a dozen deer on HWY 7. Usually it’s no big deal, but about 3 weeks ago Erin was driving, and we were just past the Petersville [...]
