Right here is where I should have some elaborate excuse for not blogging much this year so far. Something good, like writing a book, or community service, or studying. Sadly the only real reason for no blogging is a twisted combination of school and WoW. I’ll just leave it at that. As for following a [...]
Procrastination II

We’ll see who has the last word on that…

No Surprise
Last week a rumor spread saying my work was to become a Piggly Wiggly by the 24th.

Last night after chillin at Steve’s for awhile, I drove home and got out of my car. As I was walking into the garage, I landed on my left elbow and my laptop. I got up, went inside, and checked my [...]
ATi in Linux…Finally
It took a very long time to figure this one out, but I finally got ATi accelerated graphics to work in Gentoo. Of course, preliminary tests still show that my nVidia cards are faster…

WoW on Linux
There is a petition online that is aiming to gather 20,000 Linux users willing to buy World of Warcraft and play for full year with a monthly subscription (or run on top of their current subscription).
The petition is for Blizzard and VUGames to make a Mac OS X-to-Linux port of World of Warcraft. Mac OS [...]

It was dark outside. A distant rumble could be heard. Slowly it got louder, and louder, and louder. Soon the ground was shaking, the skies were lit up in a burst of flames, yet a man stood and beheld what was occuring in front of him.
Jaker’s Blog 3.0 had reached it’s 200th post.
