RMA'd two bad hard drives at the same time. The replacements were shipped out in two separate boxes at the same time with the same tracking number. One arrived week ago Friday. The other was MIA until Saturday when "a sorting exception occurred, ups has taken corrective action." Which sounds more to me like "we lost your package but recently found it." It'll be interesting...

Sometimes I think having a breathalyzer attached to sudo would be a good idea for some sysadmins...
What a terrible movie! I feel dirty for watching it...
I've wanted an HTPC for several years and finally decided to take some time and get started.
My original idea was to build a gaming machine and have it hooked up to my TV, but then I gave it a lot of thought over several months and decided that I want to keep the gaming on my laptop (that's what I bought it for) and...

In one of my computers I had a 3 terabyte drive that I was using for storage of important files and it failed. Most of the files were backed up, but not all. The drive started giving random I/O errors so I stopped using it on a regular basis. Then I started getting smart errors and decided it was time to get the rest of...

I can't really say I'm loving this new SG interface... It's a bit klunky.. sort of reminds me of something Apple would poop out on an iCrap product.

Why in the hell do I need to download an installer which in turn downloads the software I want?

After a lot of consideration, and I mean a lot, I've decided to open my own business in the computer repair field. It's just going to be a simple home-based business (sole proprietorship) that I can do in my spare time. At this point I don't plan on making it a full-time gig.

So it's been a week and a half since I quit my job at the computer repair shop. I've learned a few things working there and a few since I quit.
I hated the pay-based-on-shop-performance model. That was complete bullshit. It was a slap in the face some weeks! It forced us to suggest work that probably wasn't worth it for the customer just so...
