Tomato

New Router Firmware I saw a post on Lifehacker about setting up a different firmware on my home router. I’ve tried this before with DD-WRT, HyperWRT and Open-WRT. The only version that I was able to get set up easily was HyperWRT.  HyperWRT was alright (read functional) but it certainly wasn’t fantastic.  In setting up… Read more »

New Year’s Resolution

Posted by & filed under Front Page, Personal, Tech.

This posting is a little late in the year but my current excuse is that I have been sick (fevers of 102) on and off. Most years I have laughed off making resolutions saying that I am resolving to not make a resolution. But this year I have come to the decision that if you… Read more »

Listening to Podcasts on Linux

Posted by & filed under Front Page, Linux, Tech.

Last week one of my coworkers told me about Synergy (which lets you use a single mouse and keyboard with multiple computers across a network, and is cross-platform so I can use it on my laptop and my work computer) so I have been able to use my laptop more at work and I would… Read more »

Alright everyone! I know, I haven’t posted in, like…, forever. We have been very busy listening to the sweet, sweet music of our little Mary screaming all night long. In fact, Saturday night was the first night that she slept through the night. Mom has cut dairy products and green leafy, gas producing, vegetables out… Read more »

First Night Home

Posted by & filed under Baby, Front Page, Mary, Personal.

Mary didn’t want to sleep last night. Perhaps it was the new house, maybe she slept too much during the day or it was too much excitement coming home from the hospital. Or it could have all been gas. Who knows? I doubt even little Mary does. We, foolishly, let her sleep until 2000 (part… Read more »
