“Java 4-ever” Movie Trailer
Jun 25th
A co-worker sent me a movie trailer entitled Java 4-ever. The movie is filled with a 5-star-status cast: Eddie Larrison, Scala Johansson, William Windows, Mona Lisa Harddrive, and Lenny Linux. We all wondered what happened to Lenny Linux. Glad to see Lenny in a movie and not another IBM commercial.
It’s probably not a real movie, but I love it. I would certainly spent my money to support a movie like this. It’s in a different language so make sure you can read the captions.
Open Source + nVidia + WoW = No Playtime
Jul 15th

You like my mathematical equation for dead playtime with World of Warcraft on a linuxbox? When I first installed Fedora 8, I ran Wine 0.9[something] with nVidia’s proprietary drivers. I had no problem playing World of Warcraft. I did notice something though – that every time there was a kernel update – when I restarted my Xserver that things would be kind of haywire. I would normally have to reinstall the video driver and then I’ll be back to status quo. So; now I’m a bit more seasoned with linux and open source or non-proprietary software means a little more to me than before – and getting that to work with WoW has proved to be quite difficult.

Whatcha’ Say!?
