For years I’ve been using the Logitech MX Revolution mouse and it’s gotten long in the tooth. The pointer would stutter, the mouse buttons wouldn’t click, the click would release at the worst time, etc. I could read the signs and it was time for it to go. I was leaning towards getting the Performance [...]
So while I was putzing around with my SSL sites and getting some grief with mod_gnutls, I realized that my life really would be much easier with a valid wildcard SSL cert. So naturally I went to StartSSL and went through the process for a Class 2 Validation. I had meant to do it for [...]
ThinkGeek has something really good coming in December. Seriously, I’m thinking of getting this for the holiday season!
Google’s car navigation for Android phones is pretty good. The majority of my work is 9 to 5 weekdays but when I need to make (fully approved, vetted, it’s-not-my-fault-and-I-won’t-do-it-again) production changes I have to wait for after 5 PM. Depending on the potential impact, I have to wait until Saturday. This weekend the group I [...]
That was quick. I’m now able to turn on Google+ on my Google App domain. If your Google Apps then try logging into your “Manage this domain” link, select “Organization & Users”, then Services. If the option is available you will be able to scroll down, find it, and turn it on. It’s that simple. [...]

Edit: Geez. Since I set up this post, I noticed that the compaq8000.conf example was missing small bits like oh, the mod_gnutls parts. This update now contains the missing portion. I’d read Ipstenu’s blog post “Request: Multiple Domains, One IP SSL Certificates” and thought that that shouldn’t be too hard. Simply put, this is a [...]
That Virgin Atlantic Airways commercial made me think how much I like Nina Simone.
My son received a camera from his uncle, a cool Fuji STX-2 SLR with a 50mm lens. The girl wanted to have a camera too. So rather than get another film camera from eBay, I went to Makershed and ordered a Gakkenflex kit. I mean, fair is fair right? This is a TLR camera meaning it has [...]
It’s amazing what can happen in a few months. The whole family and I went to China for 21 days and it was a great trip. In order we flew from JFK -> HKG -> PEK/BJS -> XIY ->PVG -> CAN -> Zhaoqing -> HKG -> TSA -> HKG -> JFK. In plain English we went to [...]
When IPv6 day came around, I installed Squid3 and a IPv6 tunnel setup on my in-house Linux server. I used the instructions from Ubuntu’s Wiki and made some minor configuration changes to Squid3 and that was it. You need to use version 3; version 2 of Squid lacks the right support. The tunnel broker I [...]
