Follow-Up

31-May-06

I’m working at American Health Care, Inc. in Philadelphia, a family owned business. My family. It’s kind of weird, but natural at the same time to work there. I could’ve skipped years of wandering and just started working there – lord knows the place needed help. But for some reason I just never got drawn [...]

Hey, My Life is Boring Too!

29-May-06

But I’m too egotistical to not write about it! — Prakash XXXXXXXXXX 7XX XXXXXXX XXXXXe XXXXXXXX, XX XXXXX Monday, May 29, 2006 Greg XXXXX [snip] Dear Mr. XXXXX: Effective two weeks from the date of this letter, I resign my position as Advanced Products CAE. My last day here will be June 9, 2006. Sincerely, [...]

Lost the Cereal Challenge

28-May-06

I will admit that I lost it, fair and square. What irks me is that I answered exactly in reverse of what my gut told me. And fairly speaking, I still lost. I will go on record as saying there is no ‘difference’ between the two. Good night.

The Drive

27-May-06

We needed to look at neighborhoods where we would potentially like to live. There’s no doubt in that. Lisa wasn’t native to PA, so her familiarity was pretty much isolated to the main line (which isn’t a bad place to be familiar with, mind you). —- When I was a young lad, off on my [...]

The Challenge is Set

27-May-06

Mare is a cereal junkie, so she’s going to buy the stupid boxes of cereal. Go figure. I’m pretty adamant about this, so I figure to win this challenge. Nerd. — Ok, I downloaded and installed kubuntu. Amazing piece of work. You run the live cd, hit install – and you can browse the web [...]

So It’s Not the Drive

23-May-06

I’m installing SuSE 10.0. I rather have some form of Linux running that I can tool around with rather than nothing at all. Odd. So, it’s either the CD/DVD media or the installer itself. I’m leaning towards the DVDs I bought – garbage, likely – they were $4 a pop on black friday. They’re good [...]

SUSE 10.1 – Survey Says?

21-May-06

I don’t know. I can’t get the damned thing to installed. I burned 2 DVDs, and neither would work (is it the DVD? Is it the DVD drive on the laptop?). I checked the MD5Sums several times, they came out clean. So I downloaded the CD versions. At some point on CD 1 the whole [...]

Another Wait

20-May-06

Basically I’m waiting to burn the SUSE DVD again. I should’ve known that it wouldn’t work when it said something to the effect of “Nero managed to avoid buffer underrun errors 5 times!” Not a good sign when you’re installing an OS. — The problem with weblogs is that if you want to mention something [...]

A Long Entry Without Internet

18-May-06

This entry was started at 1.35 on May 17th, and may or may not be relevant. — Outside of my anger for Democrats being spineless bastards, my energies have been devoted recently to the car. Sadly I managed to damage the lcd in the front, where I was working on spray painting it to match [...]

Quoted / Good News

12-May-06

“Kashi, you are not putting 22 inch rims on your car!” – Leesie — SuSE 10.1 was released yesterday, and next week the DVD iso will be released. If you have a powerful computer (2.4Ghz or better) and an Nvidia card (since ATi isn’t very Linux friendly) you can demo compiz and Xgl, the latest [...]
