My dad is one of those people. You probably know
a couple. They never watch commercials. Never. They switch between channels, often missing a lot of the show (unless they have PiP).
It annoys me. I miss so much of the show when I watch television with him. I also hate commercials. I’ll watch ‘em, but I [...]

Firefox is screwed up…
July 31, 2007It seems a lot of people have had this problem.
Firefox, the worlds best browser has been screwed up. Mozilla released 2.0.0.6. My add-ons are screwed up.
For you Opera, Safari, and Flock users (and the IE suckers), what is happening is that Fox is saying that the add-on will be installed (I already installed it!) and [...]

A usability standard proposal and a rule for forum owners.
July 23, 2007You know how the nice people put
a warning when they link to a PDF? I like that. You know what else should have a warning associated with it?
JAVA!!! I cannot stand this: osphp.net’s 404 page includes an applet. It’s like punishing you for a 404. Do you know how LONG it takes for an applet [...]

What have they done?!?!
I’ve played videogames where I checked email, yeah. But not email where I had to play a videogame!
Imagine this exchange:
Bob: Hey, Bill, did you get my message? We changed the time of the bowling game.
Bill: Yeah, I played your message. It was a half-naked girl in a [...]

Screw SEO, I have it already!
July 17, 2007People say, “Oh, you gotta SEO your blog if
you want traffic. It’ll get better results and BLAH FREAKING BLAH.
Blog indexing sites refer enough traffic. I’ve gotten quite a bit of traffic from Technorati (but still no comments…why do you people not comment?) and other sites I’ve never heard of. And the oddest search queries, [...]

The right way to install Vista
July 16, 2007Fastest installation I’ve seen…
Whoo! That’s a nice system. B-e-a-utiful!
In all seriousness: don’t buy Vista! Linux is the best PC OS and so many distros to choose from.
Linux DistroWatch
Sincerely,
Sam

Alyson Stoner, what have you done? A star in serious need of a good nerd.
July 13, 2007
IT BURNS! Alyson Stoner’s website is a site
to make sore eyes. Using a remotely hosted blogging platform (who uses Blogger on their site anyway?) and too much Flash (not even a Low-Fi version available) and little to no scripting, it makes a mockery of a website….but, I don’t blame her.
I blame the de-de-de behind the [...]

Harry Potter and the Questionable Country Song
July 12, 2007Today, I went to see Harry Potter and the
Order of the Phoenix. I must say, director David Yates did much better than the other directors did in the previous flicks. The acting is top-caliber, as usual, and with great special effects.
Of course, as with all Harry movies, it was too short and not detailed enough. [...]

Chester Cheeto, you piece of crap racist!
July 9, 2007I just saw a newish Cheeto commercial and man
am I mad! It’s so racist!
First of all, people listening to Spanish music. This is freaking America! I find that offensive, but not racist, per se.
My problem is with the two floors this idiot goes to next (after burning holes in floors from eating … cheetos?). He [...]

Is this good-bye? (Another busy post day!)
July 9, 2007It seems I’ve been threatened
and will die in a couple of days.
From lyrics.com video comments:
