What a ripoff?

$15.36/MB is outrageous, I wonder how much it cost to text (e:matthew) last night?

Maynard wine gummies

I am a addict of non-artificially colored gummies. These ones were
made with. Tumeric and paprika.

The bug smells seriously disgusting like mustard but the gummis taste
good.

Oysters fight back

I ended up eating the oysters right from their shell but they put up a
serious fight when I was trying to kill them. Very unlike the clams
which just kind of surendered to the inevitable.

I think this might be the first time I was injured killing my food. I
guess it's only fair.

Fedora 12 Verizon USB 760 Setup

Verizon USB 760 dongle

setup for Fedora 12. As a side note, they are down to $9.99 online.

In order to get 3G working on fedora I needed to use the following setting with NetworkManager.

1. First insert the dongle but then eject the disk that automounts as a CD. If you don't eject the disk it sees the dongle as a disk instead of as a modem. I am pretty sure there is a way to prevent this from happening but I haven't figured it out yet.

2. right-click network manager icon - choose edit connections. Click the mobile broadband tab and enter

Number:#777
Username: your phone @vzw3g.com e.g. 000000XXXX format
Password: vzw

Then just left click the network manager icon and select the network from the list

Fedora 12 Recap

So today I was feeling under the weather and had some more time to play with Fedora 12 on the macbook pro.

Literally everything is working and I am pretty sure I am going to switch over now.

Working:
disk encryption
battery life is better
dual monitor
3d desktop
bluetooth mouse and keyboard
flash 10
netbeans 6.8
verizon usb modem
exchange on thunderbird via davmail
cisco VPN
wifi
citrix ICA client - just remember to remove

The best part is that aside from getting exchange into thunderbird, everything else worked by default. Its come a long way since the days when you had to spent a long time getting wireless and your graphics card to work.

Fedora even comes with new FOSS graphic card drivers which do an excellent job with 2D but you still the need the real nvidia drivers if you want to get a 3D desktop.

Honestly, it is totally amazing.

PBS donation

I called PBS this morning to make a donation. I wanted the Go Greener DVD that was currently advertised on the PBS pledge drive but the
person on the phone could not find it in the system for like 5
minutes. You would think that they would know th things currently
being advertised.
