fighting the lack of good ideas

Month: September 2009

almost drr…

Posted on 14 September 2009 By antipaucity

With the new iPod nano from Apple, it looks like someone is starting to implement a digital radio recorder. It’d be nice if it wasn’t just the “skip” or “pause” protection, but it’s a start.

one month update

Posted on 12 September 200911 September 2009 By antipaucity

It’s been a month since I last posted on my weight loss attempts. From a month ago, I’ve dropped 11 lbs. For my metric-bound acquaintances: I have no idea, so look it up 😀 Now I have a good (but somewhat costly) problem – I need new pants 😀

more help from stackoverflow

Posted on 3 September 20091 September 2009 By antipaucity

I realize I asked this question a while back, but in reviewing some of my history, I was reminded of how helpful the site has been for a variety of issues. And I’m sure that questions like this one regarding VMware and VPNs is something “I should have known” – but not knowing where to…
