Interview Part 2

I am writing this from the new Linux server I installed in my office. Soon students will be able to use it for production work. I had my final interview with the Dean today. It seemed to go quite well. I really hope that it all works out with this job, I have never been more excited about anything in my life.

Tablet PC

So my Fujitsu Stylistic 3500 came in the mail yesterday. I love it and don't love it. I love it because it's a tablet PC and its way more fun to navigte the OS with a pen. It's form factor is also great. But no ethernet, win 98, no wireless, no keyboard kind of sucks. I tried to upgrade the OS to WIN XP but I couldn't type in the serial with the handwriting software, which I can't get without going on the internet. It's like a vicious circle. I have to play with it some more.

I did, however, make me realize that I do want a very modern tablet PC as my next laptop. Here is a sketch made of the statue of liberty in GIMP. The pen is not pressure sensitive without the driver which I can't get without the internet.

Sleeping?

I should be sleeping but instead I am proofreading my presentation. I think it has the potential of being the best ever, as long as the whole computer projector connection holds up. They have me teaching in a room that does not have the software I am teaching, so I am stuck with resorting to teaching from my laptop. It is very non-hands-on, which is awkward for DMA, but it has to be done. Yay for Tuesday, I take back what I said last week.

I'll keep you all posted after it happens.

Great Buffalo History Site

Who would have ever thought that Buffalo and Blackrock were competing for the mouth of the Erie Canal. Here

you can find out about Beginnings - The Village of Buffalo - 1801 to 1832

Here is a link

to a much larger history directory on the same site.

It also has a link to the Buffalonian

What is The Buffalonian?

As founder Steve Powell puts it. "We are a "NOT-COM" dedicated to the dissemination of historical information... We are a nonprofit organization creating an online community and archive."

Stealing The Internet?

(e:maidencateyes) , what do you mean stealing your internet [inlink]maidencateyes,292[/inlink] ? Is there not enough for you to use?

Think about this analogy. You have a stereo, you blast it really loud and then call the FBI because your neighbor is trying to listen to your music but didn't buy it. It is the same thing as what you are saying.

I always leave my networks open so other people so that they can freely use the internet in my network. It is really no problem unless they are causing some sort of network problem or trying to hack into your computer. Is that what was happening to you, or are you just upset that someone was using it?

Why not share the internet? It is totally ridiculous to invlove the police and/or FBI for something that you have totaly control over. They will have no idea what you are talking about, and we don't even have enough police to deal with real emergencies, let alone "stolen internet" problems. Just put a password on the network if you don't want poeple to use it. If you complain enough you will end up drawing the attention of the people that think you are actually invading his privacy by sending your radio waves into his apartment.

Being able to share the wireless internet is what makes it so great. Multiple people can use the same connection without any hardware overhead. Instead of trying to get him busted for using the radio waves you are sending into his apartment, why don't you just ask him to split the cost with you or put a password on it.
