Who put in the black cartridge??

November 29th, 2005

I went to see one of my customers today to stop in and see how things are doing. Of course, as soon as I get there, everything seems to break down at once. One of the printers was printing horribly. So I checked it out. Looked in the network status page. “Black ink cartridge missing” [...]

May It Go to a Better Place :’(

November 26th, 2005

I am feeling down. Today I must get rid of the second computer that I owned. It was an AST Advantage! 614. It sported a Pentium, at 100MHz, 8MB of RAM, and a HUGE 850MB hard drive. I had upgraded from a 386/25MHz with 4MB of RAM, and only a 40GB hard drive. I had [...]

Success!

November 14th, 2005

Well, I now have my new IBM server up and running. I’ve transfered everything over, users, web, email, MySQL, awstats, etc. I also changed from XMail to Courier-IMAP/Postfix. It took quite a while. I’ve also rewired my closet a bit. The new server is much faster. It’s a single (but dual-ready) Xeon 3.0GHz, with 1GB [...]

Kittens

November 3rd, 2005

I want them gone…. shelters say they must be 8 weeks old. Paper won’t put an ad until 8 weeks old. Can’t kill them, because that’s cruelty. It’s a conspiracy. They want you to be stuck with them and are forced the spay/neuter and keep them. Please take them. We can pretend they are 8 [...]
