I do not often use warranties because I have rarely had a need to do so, and usually warranties on computers I pretty much ignore anyway because it’s easier—and far faster—to replace computer parts myself, but I am really glad that I had a warranty this time to use. A little while back, the HDTV [...]
I have been going to school for awhile now. However, the longer that I am in the school that I am in, the more that I realize just why some recruiting agencies and employers put these types of schools at the bottom of the list when it comes to prospective employees, and why other college [...]
Yesterday was a good—if not exhausting—day. By the time I went to bed last night, I was quite tired, and was very happy. The first part of the day was where Erica, Leesa, and myself exchanged gifts. We then went over to Leesa’s parents place and hung out for a little while, and exchanged gifts [...]
I do sometimes wish that I were more eloquent in the ideas that I sometimes wish to convey. The whole idea of freedom is what drives me, and when I see things like this, where a student gets detention for using Firefox. Now, the school claims that it was a falsified document, and it might [...]

I am going to be so tired tomorrow. I have spent the majority of tonight setting things up here so that Erica has a computer that won’t shut down randomly and so that we have Wi-Fi in the apartment again. There is still more work to be done there, and hopefully I can get that [...]
Clearly, Paul Campbell doesn’t have a clue what he is talking about. Sounds about right for any of the idiots running the various levels of government in this country. When it comes to technology, the government knows just as little as the average citizen. That’s not to say that not knowing your stuff is bad, [...]
Happy belated birthday to Indigo! And totally unrelated to that… it seems that the whole process of business registration now costs more than it did the last time I looked at it. Poopy.
