This place is freaking haunted. NO JOKE :cry:
SMCC is a community college that is built on the grounds of a 200+ year old fort. It's been around since sometime in the 1800's or earlier, and saw the Civil War, WWI, and WWII. Before the fort was a settlement from some of the very first Maine...
So, our brilliant IT department down here in SMCC had implemented a new measure to aid against illegal computer activities within the dorms.
Every internet capable device MUST register with the IT department and hand over their MAC addresses in order to connect to the internet.
Normally, I...
Well, I guess that time has come in my life... or, at least, it's getting very close.
I've been giving a choice as a campus Security officer. I can stay down in Portland all summer in a mostly empty dorm and work straight through the next semester, or I can go home for the summer like...
This was so random, I just HAD to blog about it :rofl:
and it shows the mental state of my friends and I... not good! :rofl:
I had to make a fake book cover for my Photoshop class. It got some good reviews, even though I was forced to use an inkjet printer :P
Covers and spine. Applied a filter to that ruins image to give it more of a dusty/foggy effect, and drew the arm, hand, and blood by hand. I also found a...
So, the shoulder buttons on my old DSi died. Apparently, they shorted out due to condensation from when I used to blow the dust out with my mouth (yes, a very n00bish and idiotic thing to do, and I'm pissed at myself for not realizing that would happen until it was too late :hateit: ).
It was...
I was having a couple of problems in Firefox. Every once in a while when watching Hulu it would freeze, while the audio kept playing.
So, I decided to follow the hype and switch to Chrome.
Bad idea.
Chrome has so many problems, it is funny. Funny how so many people think it's great.
1.)...
As we all know, one of the best ways to fix the DSi shoulder button issue is to blow under the buttons to remove the dust.
However, I live in an environment where doing so causes instant condensation under the buttons, where there are important cable connections and circuits. In short, no...
So, when I was a kid I had a game called LEGO Creator for Windows 95, then later 98. I loved being able to create with it, then be able to print out instructions and try to build my creations in real life.
It was extremely limited, however. It didn't have many hinges or ways to hold bricks at...
I don't understand why COD: MW2 is so popular.
I can empty an entire magazine into somebody's head (true story!), then he'll turn around and get me in two shots. Then theres the rifle grenade.
People use them all the time no problem, but when I use one they only get scratched then kill me...
Luckily, most of my classmates suck more. We had to make CD jackets for class tomorrow, so I figured Playstation jackets are the same.
I wanted to make a new logo, but Photoshop is time consuming, and I want to get other stuff done. So I just recycled my old one ^^
FRONT COVER:

So, I cloned my hard drive onto an external 2.5" that's 2 1/2 times bigger, added a TON of space to the Windows 7 partition, and intalled Ubuntu Ultimate Edition 2.5 on the remaining 117GB partition.
Anyway, whenever the drive is idle in Windows 7 (I haven't checked if it does it in Ubuntu...
I just noticed this the other day. Maybe I just missed out on the announcement, but ever since Hadrian announced the retro review thread, many people have been replacing their avatars with retro, obscure boxart.
And I'm no exception, lol!
Anyway, how about we get as many tempers as possible...
Do you have a class where the teacher/professor insists on putting an overlay over your screen? ("eyes to front", showing somebody else's screen live, etc.)
I found a workaround during my professor's lecture on stuff I already knew. The program she uses is called SynchronEyes 5.1, which...
Unfortunately, due to classes, work, and homework, I haven't had time to work on the first episode all week. And at this rate, I won't be able to for quite a while.
As such, I don't believe I'll make the Februrary 15th deadline and must postpone the first episode of the Empire of Steel.
This...
I ordered an external hard drive from newegg, and it's going to arrive tomorrow (w00t!)
This external is 640gb, an upgrade from my 250gb laptop hard drive that's filling up fast.
I want to clone this hard drive onto the external using Macrium Reflect Free edition. I'm hoping it will allow me...
Original Story
IMO, seems like they deserved it... They thought they could go to another country, then transport orphans without permission? How suspicious (and stupid ) is that?!
Haiti has been dealing with child traffickers for a long time. Now a group of religious Americans goes over...
The campus library has no good books. So, I decided to give eBooks a try.
I got dsLibris, and found out how to convert ebooks into .xhtml (specifically, .rtf to .xhtml. If you know how to convert .prc to .xhtml, it would be much apprecitated!). I then found out that Baen Books has a free...
I was looking for ebooks, and stumbled onto this:
Glitched price?
There is NO WAY that's correct... I hope :blink:
A couple other books from this author are like this, too!
I made a really basic website for my Flash series:
The Hidden Hangar
I started it freshman year in high school, then literally forgot about it. I spent the past couple of days literally overhauling it, so now it's almost what I want it to be. :yay:
I'll continue updating it as I make more...
