The Idiots are at it Again (Media ind.)
Wow….
So I was reading today a little on the Best Techie website, they cover quite the topics. One of them that I read today was RealNetworks forced to stop selling their DVD copier. I found that… idiotic.
Why?
Why can’t people have the ability to copy DVDs and CDs? Some scramble feature prevents us from doing this? [...]

Linux vs. WINE vs. People
I was reading today a post from eWeek saying “Wine Is a Long Shot at Solving the Windows-Apps-on-Linux Problem” – Yes that is the case.
I believe that when using an OS you should use whatever that OS is meant for. Linux to Linux, Windows to Windows, OS X to OS X, AmigaOS to AmigaOS, SkyOS [...]
I’m liking my external 1TB WD so far
More space!
Recently I purchased a 1TB My Book Essential HDD. I’m quite happy with it. But I think I will get a longer USB cable maybe. I bought the HDD $100. I would’ve purchased the 2TB instead, but no.
Drawbacks/Drawforwards
As I’m a Linux user, the software that comes on the hard drive is useless to me. [...]

Must Have Applications for OS X
Finding good applications for Mac OS X that’s free is not that easy as it is in the Linux world. I did some searching here and there for software that did the job for what needed to be done. For the most part I found some really great applications that do a really [...]
Is Proxy Privacy? Or is Privacy without a Proxy?
Don’t look at me! Better yet..
For some time now I’ve been using proxies on and off–heck, I even host a proxy server for myself, and a few of my friends. But who is to say that maybe one day their information could be leaked? I wouldn’t betray them, but… what happens if they didn’t know [...]
The Haunted Flash Player
WoOoOoOOoO
So I put the flash player on pause, packed up my take-with-me stuff, and headed out the door. Only to receive a phone call a few hours later complaining that my laptop was making strange sounds.
At first I thought it was my Hard drive, or maybe the fan broke, but then I asked if the [...]
I Upgraded the Vonage Plan
Oooo, more calling!
Well some of you know me, I’m normally a relaxed person – I find services that are obviously beneficial to me and those around me, and then I stick with them because they are just “solid.” Sometimes (maybe 1/5 times) service may not be good–If it isn’t, so what? Move on.
