2010

I’ve worked here for 5 weeks now, and never went down the slide from the 2nd to 1st flr. Decided to change that today. Mission accomplished.

All my new system parts have arrived, picking up my iPhone 4 tonight, this is going to be a good weekend for me (my wife, maybe not as much)

Fired up Google Chrome this morning and the toolbar has changed to gray. Trying to decide if I like it or not.

Sweet! Getting my iPhone 4 back tomorrow.

Life was so much easier when my users had quotas on their network drives

I think it’s odd when people add a bunch of …… to the end of email messages. Did you fall asleep at the keyboard, should I be concerned?

Little bro had his first day of high school! Yes I have a brother “that young” – it actually make me feel really old that he’s there now.

New Google Contacts is a huge improvement over previous version, and the Exchange sync to the iPhone is so fast you’ll freak.

Man when Newegg finally gets their stuff in gear they don’t mess around. Case should be here tomorrow and the rest of the parts on Friday!

The Corsair H50 CPU cooler that I ordered on Thursday night from Amazon the same time my Newegg problems started arrived today. :P

Newegg seems to be over their fussiness. New system has been ordered, hopefully will all be here by Saturday to give me time to build.

Just talked to Newegg Preferred Account peeps, things should be fixed. Submitted order for system, waiting to see if it gets denied. :P

Newegg’s inability to process my Preferred Account order has given me more time to reflect and tweak my build. I guess it’s not all bad.

Damn, now the memory I wanted is sold out on Newegg… wish they’d get their shit together and let me order!

Their customer service reps seem to talk about it like it’s something everyone already knows, never have that problem from any other place.

Looking at how much cheaper iPhone plans are on Orange UK than on AT&T, makes me sick how bloated the costs for US mobile plans are.

I would love to see who “sources with knowledge of the situation” really are are re:Verizon iPhone. They have never been right in the past.

Guy I work with pointed be towards CrashPlan instead of Backblaze when I asked him, I actually may go that direction. Anyone use that?

Anyone have any experience with Backblaze? Looking to switch off S3/JungleDisk because it’s getting pretty pricey each month.

Getting my Newegg problem sorted out, guess it had to do with shipping to work and billing from home. Should be corrected today.

Newegg apparently didn’t like my Preferred Account, going to have to call them in a little bit and figure out why my order was denied.

And the Corsair Obsidian 700D case with their 950W PSU, and self contained hydro cooler, it will certainty be pretty on the inside, for sure

Ordered all the parts for my new PC tonight. It’s going to be a monster, 6 cores, DDR3 1866, SSD, RAID for data, nice GPU, I can’t wait!

Channeling best MM voice: “Happy birthday, Mr. President”

Best thing about the KS primary vote today the end of the “I’m a bigger Tea Bagger than you” pissing contest between Moran and Tihart!

The whole load a site and jailbreak your iOS is nice and all, but if it’s that easy to do, what’s stopping the bad guys from nasty stuff?

Here’s to not burning bridges at previous employers so you can go back and ask for favors later, or just get help.

Oh AT&T how I hate you so. Sporting the iPhone 3G I used to have at my previous job until my contract mess is sorted out. (Thanks ex-Boss!)

It’ll be nice to have a system I can actually game on again, instead of my almost 5 year old build.

Spent the majority of my free time this weekend fine tuning my new home PC custom build. It’s going to be a beastly yet cost effective PC.
