By a stroke of luck I managed to score a cheap, small and good condition IBM 600e, a PII with adequate horsepower for minor coding and quite importantly, writing. It’s got Xubuntu now, and I’ve found out a battery repack will cost approximately Php1,600 and I think it’ll be good to go. I won’t post… Continue reading Trying to install USB NIC on PII Laptop (updated)

Sunshine is a story about a group of scientists and astronauts sent out to space 50 years from now to fix the sun via exploding a bomb into it. First they have to get there of course, and no they don’t resort to doing it at night, so let’s get that old, old joke over… Continue reading Sunshine
OpenDNS Rocks the Mike Right
John Roberts of OpenDNS was kind enough to drop by to educate my behind on OpenDNS’ ability to refresh their cache, and consequently pointed me to cache.opendns.com, where I found the culprit! I cleared that out, and apparently only Kikay had that problem. Mom, Basketball, Movie and the rest were ok. After checking them all… Continue reading OpenDNS Rocks the Mike Right
Just a few quick thoughts before I hie off to ZZZ land
Day 2 of the big server move is highlighted by three issues. Turns out php’s default 8mb allocation was the culprit when I was doing stuff like accessing wp-admin’s pages and it was returning white empty pages. I bumped it up to 16mb. and immediately, that wasn’t enough too. So I bumped it up to… Continue reading Just a few quick thoughts before I hie off to ZZZ land
Today’s the Big Day

That was a solid 8+ hours… Continue reading Today’s the Big Day

Where is Jonas Burgos?!
Sometimes I look around the local Internet as I know it and I have to wonder – are any of the things going on around the country of any consequence to these people? Of course it is silly for me to ask anyone to pay attention to anything they don’t want to pay attention to,… Continue reading Where is Jonas Burgos?!
