did something to crash my HA server. If you’ve tried to access the HA pages or weather station info, sorry about that. Took an hour or so to restore from backup.

BBS
Took down the web portion of the BBS. I will replace it with phpBB to use for my forums. I have started work on the BBS itself. It is available via telnet at shadowscope.com. When I took the board down three years ago, I had no real backup to speak of except for a mirrored hard drive, which is now bad, so everything is pretty much the default settings and menus for the time being.
Mindless
Solitaire. What a mindless game. $5000 piece of electronic equipment. P4 1.8. Over 1 gb Ram. 128 meg vid card. TV tuner. Serial card. HA software. Firewire. USB 2.0. CD Burner. 15″ Flast screen LCD. Custom case with lots of huge fans, Blinking LED’s, side window with inside lighting.
What am I doing? Listening to 30 year old music and playing frigging solitaire. what a loser. Think it’s time to eat lunch.

Government
“In general the art of government consists in taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give to the other.”
