Wow, what a great game ending
Lily and I are still watching Fox but the end of the game was great. I was sure that the Giants were going to lose possession of the ball and that the Patriots would just wait out the last minute. What a great end to the Super Bowl. Share this: Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon Digg
Bad mail queuing in Postfix

Back to Max Payne 2
I saw a commercial for Kane and Lynch: Dead Men and I had to get out my copy of “Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne” and install it. This game came out in 2003 and I still like playing it. It’s like Humphrey Bogart directed by John Woo. Very cool. I’ve only just [...]
Got Joost 1.0.2 to work with Vista 64
I’m home sick today so I have time to goof off. I got Joost 1.0.2 working on Vista 64, it was the simplest thing of all. In the shortcut properties disable Windows XP SP2 compatibility. That’s it. I’m watching Numbers right now. Share this: Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon Digg
Okay I think I got ATPP working
I think I’ve gotten the machine translation working to a point of good stability. Meaning my MySQL config is not killing the box with requests, caching seems to be working fine. Right now I have 65 translated pages in my database. When I encounter one that is munged (meaning the database timed out) I manually [...]
