Sites Around Pittsburgh

Considering we were only there for 24 hours we saw a lot of stuff. I think my favorite part might be swimming at Presque Isle state park on Lake Erie on the way home. The water was so clear there there hat I opened my eyes underwater. Unfortunately I got no pics of it.

Fedora 17 Macbook Air 11in Native Resolution 1368x768

It was making me crazy trying to get it to the native resolution of the macbook air 11 inch. Hopefully this helps someone else looking to do the same thing.

$ xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00" 85.25 1368 1440 1576 1784 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync

Fantasyland Rave Pittsburgh, PA

The website seemed so promising Although I was was more than a little suspicious about the last minute venue change and the dropout of one of the headlining DJs.

I got these pictures in the last few minutes as the "police" were supposedly shutting down the party at 11PM shortly after it started. It sucked because the music was good and the floor was very danceable. At the same time it was about 150 degrees in there with no ventilation and no return entry.

Originally the party was supposed to be at a much larger venue. We I saw it was moving to the small Moose Lodge, I wrote and asked the promoter how 2000+ people were supposed to fit in there. He said, "don't worry we have it covered." Maybe, we have it covered meant we are going to cover all of the windows and doors and then pretend the police are shutting down after we steal all of your money.

It was pretty terrifying because they really had no exits. I didn't realize at first but the fire exists and windows were all closed up like on those horrible after school specials where everyone dies at the concert.

It was weird because as far as we could tell the police never showed up. So basically there were a bunch of drugged out ravers all over the street which was a pretty fun spectacle in and of itself.

Afterwards we ended up just crusing around Pittsburgh. We already had the hotel so we went to their version of Allentown, followed by their version of Chippewa. The dance club we ended up at called Diesel was pretty sweet on the inside. I feel like (e:lilho) would have loved it.

Toronto Pride 2012

At the last minute (e:terry) and I decided to go and ended up being able to book a hotel room only one block from the festival which was pretty amazing.

It was a fun time, I just love watching the people. It was so packed and hot the whole time. We pretty much jumped from shadow to shadow all day Sunday. Saturday night was also so warm.

It was so weird watching Canadians freak out over bud light! This was truck 3 and 4 too. They were cheering so much before I even got my phone out.

Pano's Double Lunch

The other day I went to Pano's with (e:samathon1986). I wanted the grilled northern bean salad. I also wanted souvlaki - so I ordered both. I almost finished it too.

The grilled northern bean salad always reminds me of (e:hodown). We used to eat it so much when we were vegan.

Tortoise Poop Compost

It is unreal how much poop those two tortoises make. This pile from this week alone and that's not even all of it.

Its pretty much just grass and weeds. If you leave it long enough it turns back into that. I read online that because they eat no meat, it makes great fertilizer so I have been composting it.

Fourth of July - Buffalo City Fireworks

We went back down to the outer harbor to see the fireworks. We had to bike down furiously because we didn't leave until ~10PM but we made it in time.

We got so close again. The pictures don't do justice to how in your face it was.

Gnome 3 Shell Extensions

Anyone who hated gnome 3 has not seen or tried out

It is so amazing how many plugins there are and how easy it is to install them. Not to mention that are made using the same technologies that fuel the web, meaning that ultimately they will flourish.

Everyone of my issues with gnome 3 has been solved.
