I got this list from here. I just wanted to post this list here in case it goes away one day.

Does anyone else remember “Battle Chess”?

I lost more hours than I can count playing this game.

Found on Miro: Stump the Chef

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

I have been using Miro for a while now. Some of my favorite things to watch are things that would never make it to the ol’skool TV, but I think Stump the Chef has a shot. The theme of the show is as follows: The chef is presented with three seemingly random ingredients. He then has to take these three random ingredients, and mold something that the panel of three judges would pass as not only edible, but actually good. The difficulty of this task is usually exacerbated by how terribly the three ingredients would mesh traditionally. I really like the idea, its the kind of edutainment I wish was around when I was a TV watching kid. What do you think?

Posting with the wordpress iphone app

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

This is a test post with the iPhone app. Already I can see that one would need to be pretty bored to use this everyday. Typing with the iPhone keyboard, while not too hard; became a chore before this post was done.

Upgraded wordpress to 2.6

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Basically I just backed up my data and followed the instructions on the wordpress site. It seems to be all good.

Seen on slashdot today: goosh

Its the most awesomest thing ever. Article I want an app that does the same thing locally.

That switch to kickstart that you always forget is likely ksdevice=link

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

It means use the ethernet device that has a link, and if it missing you will likely be prompted. It doesn’t matter much to me anyway now that I know how to properly manage a PXE environment; but it took a while to get it stuck in my head.

MySQL mangled my wordpress data.

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

I browsed to dacrib.net only to discover the wordpress initial install screen was being displayed. WTF? It must be the database I thought. Sure enough after running mysqlcheck against it I saw that one of the tables was marked as crashed. So I fixed it.

mysql> repair table wp_options;
+————————–+——–+———-+———-+
| Table | Op | Msg_type | Msg_text |
+————————–+——–+———-+———-+
| xxxx_wordpressdb.wp_options | repair | status | OK |
+————————–+——–+———-+———-+

All better now. Maybe I should set a cron up to do that every few months. Anyway I got a dump in case everything goes to hell sometime soon.

Not that its news, but half a million 13 year olds messed up digg.com today, then Kevin Rose stepped up and said a very grown up thing about it. It boiled down to look, we built this site for you, if you would rather get us into some shit that may make us go away, then so be it. We will do what we can. I admire, and agree with his position. That is all.

I am supposed to be relaxing.

Gabe decided that he wanted to make some videos. Being the proud father I am, I posted them here, and here. If you are not related to him and you still care to look, you must be bored.
