There are two different types of posts: One in which a person writes about random thoughts or an aspect related to what they are working on or one in which a person can post about the things they do in a day or a week. I’ve done both however, probably more of the former. Most [...]

Yes I’m a geek. Bear with me: By the end of this month I hope to have a computer hardwired into my car. Yes a full size computer, with a processor a gig of ram, Windows XP, and sporting a 180 GB HDD. 7″ LCD Touchscreen, Custom Mount, Wireless Network Card, Verizon PCI card, Wireless [...]

Typing on a laptop is ridiculously fun. I really need to get a keyboard for my regular computer that types like this. This short clicky clicky feeling is great for typing at high speeds. This is a totally pointless entry except that I got to type it on my really short clicky clicky keyboard. Speaking [...]

Most of you know I’ve been offering hosting on my server for quite a while. But if you don’t here is the link: http://askthefool.com/host. It’s cheaper then 75% of the stuff out there, and more reliable then 97% of it. Oh and even if you don’t need hosting, I’m giving 20% referral fees to anyone [...]

Since when is it possible to have two screename online at the once? I’ve always remembered it saying “you have signed on at a different location”. Not sure why AOL made this change, but I’m not complaining. Makes working with bots so much easier, because you can have multiple instances without having them sign each [...]

In an act to postpone finishing a draft of my paper, I began to change the font on the parts I had already written. Since the past 2-3 years, for the most part I’ve been writing my papers in Times or Georgia pt 12 depending on how long I need to make it. But today, [...]

In the process of doing my 20 page research paper/final for English (grr), I’ve stumbled upon a fantastic resource for research. No its not Google. Several different search engines act as an easy way to search multiple search engines (meaning that when you search on them, they actually search other search engines and return data). [...]

I haven’t played Counter-Strike in a while, but it came highly recommended from one of my more critical friends so I decided to check it out and all I can say is that it pretty impressive. Other then the game, Valve has efficiently created a content delivery system that doesn’t impede with the game. One [...]

This is pretty low quality and easy to make set of scripts, but nevertheless http://remind.askthefool.com is online and working. Basically its just a reminder system that sends you emails the day before something is happening. Try it out.

I hadn’t checked the site in a few months, but I was surprised to find out that is has over 1000 users. I ran some stats about how many of those accounts are active and found that 623 are active and 32 have duplicate email addresses. Stats since v2 first opened for registration: I’ve decided [...]

I was downstairs working on my mom’s computer and I got bombarded with pop-up windows. I promptly cursed Microsoft again, shut down IE, and downloaded FireBird. I’ve been using FireBird for so long now that pop-ups have almost become a thing of the past. Not only is FireBird a web-standards compliant browser its not even [...]

In attempts to centralize my user database for most of my projects, I came across the problem of having different access levels. If one level were higher then the other, the solution would be easy and a level four could be considered higher then a level three. Level four would have access to all of [...]

Among other things, my blog has been reloaded. Been a while since I’ve actively blogged. I hope you all behaved yourselves in my absence. old photoBlog – here

View Visitors – View Hits Site has been picking up popularity as the months have gone by. In December I released “Food for Thought” (fft) and askthefool.com v4 (Fossil Fuel), thus the sudden increase in popularity. I wish I had a better stats program installed for nobox.org, but it gets too many hits to make [...]
