Loved this video for the wing commander intro Eve Online Pirate 101

New firefox default tab behavior, thoughts on why you should use it and how to change it.

Jan 21, 2010 @ 11:22 pm by phosphers

I just upgraded to ff 3.6 and did not like how tabs were handled, some quick google’ing led me to This link on CNET. Rather informative.

Sprint picturemail website is useless now.

Jan 21, 2010 @ 06:20 pm by phosphers

Some point last year sprint updated the picturemail website for some stupid reason. Now it’s pretty much unusable with a horrid layout and a lot of clicks to do anything. To make it worse you can’t download all the images in one big damn zip file, you have to download them all individually! BAH! Bad sprint!

Hah, screw you best buy.

Worth a read, Best by “optimization” a waste.

Change $PATH on your chumby.

Chumby is a bit weird and keeps the main profile in /psp/.profile. /psp survives reboots so it makes sense.

DDO and 404/403 errors.

Dec 28, 2009 @ 09:31 am by phosphers

For the sake of poor fools that come looking for a fix to this problem, I’ll post this. DDO uses the .net framework, and the .net framework uses the proxy settings from IE. Yes, this whole issue is due to the proxy. Not sure what exactly the problem is, but if the proxy is enabled in IE you can’t login to the servers (avoid poisoned cache maybe?). The DDO launcher will happily check all the data it needs to launch, and even download/apply updates, but it won’t login and the error it gives really doesn’t help. So there you go, turn off the proxy and you’re good!

I’m such a nerd…..

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUURGH!!!!! Or, which irssi binary do I use?

Nov 07, 2009 @ 06:10 am by phosphers

I got bored and decided to try pimping out my irssi once again. But the bugger just wouldn’t load any scripts at all. Turns out I had two versions on the machine and one didn’t have perl support. Wonder how long ago I did that and why.

I couldn’t stop giggiling.
