so I suppose I should post another blog

onefinemess | November 2, 2008

because it’s been a while.
It’s not that I’m having “bloggers block”, but I’m feeling kinda meh about it lately.
I need to blog for some kinda company or something, something with an audience and more likely to have discussion I guess…or at least that’s what I’ve been subconsciously thinking lately.
Sooo…yeah, election in two days – I’m [...]

Ubuntu 2 version upgrade in < 4 hours

onefinemess | May 13, 2008

So a few weekends ago I turned on my almost never used Ubuntu laptop.
It was running Feisty I think…version 6.something.  I just recently found out you could actually update entire OS versions from inside the OS – which I think is the boss shit.  I found the instructions here.
Anyway, it worked almost perfectly.
634 pm start

Friday links

onefinemess | May 2, 2008

Well, its the end of yet another exciting week of life – here are some of the more interesting things I’ve found to amuse myself with on the web this week.
Clinton or Obama: decision tree – a pretty neat graphic
CNN has a story up on how genetic information from Africa tells us that the human [...]

linksplosion

onefinemess | September 16, 2007

Man, I’ve been stockpiling this stuff for too long.  It’s always pain to type up these posts because none of the blog sites seem to play well with large lists of links – either they have a problem with the formatting of ONE of them but won’t tell you which, they randomly close themselves halfway [...]

Half-mobile baby blog

onefinemess | August 2, 2007

So I’ve got this great new PDAphone gadget (that I’ll blog a bit more extensively about at some point), and I think I’ve almost got it set up so I can blog from it. As a halfway test run, I snapped this pic of poor Zain getting his 2 month shots on the camera, [...]

Yay for shitpiles!

onefinemess | October 14, 2006

This week’s shitpile brought to you thanks to Google Docs & Spreadsheets! Does that mean I have a corporate sponsor? Nooo…it just means ZohoWriter kept crapping out for me this week so I shuffled my notes on over to Google’s handy online doc service – which has the added bonus of spreadsheets & [...]

xbox drama or: How I spent my labor day weekend

onefinemess | September 4, 2006

So…I don’t know why but I started thinking about Dark Wizard, this old school Sega CD (seriously!) game I used to really enjoy back in the day. (It sure beat the shit out of Sewer Shark!). Anyway, along with the Shining Force series & Warsong, it was one of the earlier turn based SRPGs [...]
