Isn’t CSS just tons of fun

Obviously, I have upgraded to a more recent version of WordPress. Unfortunately, my ideas on how best to use the horizontal on a display are different from 99% of the WP theme makers. What’s more, my original, favorite style by Sasa Jovanic, simple-blue.css, seems to be missing for the latest WP. So, [...]

Restaurant Review: Satchel’s Pizza

Being Friday, I thought it would be a good night to head out for a pie. Well, that’s not entirely true. But, after some prodding a group of us headed off in the general direction of Satchel’s Pizza. We were only somewhat vaguely familiar with the directions to arrive at Satchel’s, but [...]

Cingular has the worst… signal… ever…

Worst cellphone company ever.
Topic says it all.
Jimmie, a Cingular customer, emailed me on October 8th his craptastic experience:

Cingular has the worst customer service ever. Billing errors over $100.00 in one month, several layers of management with no continuity. Stated we will be sending out your new phone and should arrive in 3 days. A week [...]

Cingular Service Sucks

Wow, Cingular really sucks. I’ve been a frequently user and abuser of a Cingular customer every single night, without fail.

Yes, that’s right, my conversation is interrupted on the balance [...]

Telemarketers, I luv you

If you have a particularly amusing conversation, feel free to tape it and send me an MP3.
Thanks!

Silent Hunter Perl Foo Spawns Improved Convoys!

Still undergoing playtesting, my recent Perl foo on parsing Silent Hunter III’s random campaign mission layer has resulted in the ImprovedConvoys mod. With a few more changes, I’ll move on to modify the few task forces represented in the random layer such that they’re seemingly more realistic, or at least less boring. Task [...]

dropbear and no auth methods

Trying to ssh into a box with dropbear I am finding no joy:

ssh: connection to root@10.8.0.6:22 exited: No auth methods could be used.

You need to change the following to true in /etc/ssh/sshd_config for joy again.

PasswordAuthentication yes

This seems new. I had no problem with an older version of dropbear from earlier this year sometime.

Gregg Reference Manual LOL

How cute. The Gregg Reference Manual contains a decoder for the basic online acronyms.
