This was too good not to share. Oh, NeoOffice, how you disappoint me. Anyone running standard.dic on OpenOffice 2.4 or 3.0 want to test this word and see whether it’s wrong there, too?

Oh, and by the way, the title of the blog post contains a 3 in cuneiform: 𒐈. If it’s not displaying correctly for you, you can use this … Continue reading
Ever hear of Firefox 3? Yeah, so have I. Too bad NBC is still in the goddamn Neolithic. You have got to be kidding me.

I’ve been uncharacteristically lazy about maintaining my computer lately. My media and document drives are getting quite disorganized, I have dozens of no-longer-bleeding-edge application packages installed, and I’m not even running the beta of the newest version of Ubuntu. Today, however, at the behest of Shuttleworth himself, I decided to take the beta for a … Continue reading
The guys and gals over at the Mozilla Corporation have been making remarkable strides on the next version of everyone’s favorite browser. Firefox 3 has been in beta testing for months now, running late from its initial target of October 2007. (I can’t find any citations for that, so just take my word for it.) … Continue reading
My connection speeds to various services seem to fluctuate greatly. I spent some time this afternoon analyzing my network traffic and tried to figure out what could be done to keep things speedy. The first thing was to determine the scope of the “network” I’m referring to. I used the excellent bandwidth analyzer SpeedTest to … Continue reading
