  1. Watching my favorite Christmas movie of all time. http://bit.ly/72HO57
  2. People purposely defaulting on mortgages. Some states actually have laws preventing lenders from seizing other assets! http://bit.ly/5TsM3K
  3. Really strange watching Fringe last night and seeing a character named "Matt Jarvis" http://bit.ly/637Tpl
  4. @kbalhoff Congratulations!!!
  5. CA approves efficiency standards for TVs > This is just crazy. What's next? Limit # of TVs / household? computers? http://bit.ly/2x3pOa
  6. Interesting statistical analysis of Belichick's decision to go for it on 4th and 2 against the Colts: http://bit.ly/4alJGi
  7. Makes sense since RFC 952 and RFC 1123 don't allow '_' in hostnames. Lesson: conform to the spec when you name your server. :-)
  8. Just tracked down an interesting customer problem. Apparently, java.net.URI doesn't like hostnames with '_'. URI#getHost() returns null.
  9. It's depressing that I need to turn the lights on in my office at 3:30pm because it's too dark outside.
  10. Anyone having issues clicking Eclipse buttons in Ubuntu 9.10? Here's the solution: http://bit.ly/2PQG2i
  11. Think I have a fix for my Notes problem in Ubuntu 9.10: http://bit.ly/4D2lKM... Thanks to @jcw5002 for the pointer! Will try it tonight.
  12. Anyone who does manage to get Notes working in Ubuntu 9.10, I'd be interested to know how. I suspect an xulrunner issue, but not sure.
  13. I don't recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10 if you use Lotus Notes. Was up until 1:30am reverting to 9.04 to get Notes working again.
  14. Just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10. Looks like Eclipse 3.4 and xulrunner 1.9.1 don't play nice together. Installing xulrunner 1.9.0.14 fixed it.
  15. Lenovo support is awesome! Reported problem on Thurs, got a pre-paid shipping box Fri, sent my ThinkPad to TN at 1pm Fri, got it back today!
  16. IBM 3Q: EPS and revenue beat forecast, IBM raises EPS outlook for FY2009... and the stock is down $5.00 in after hours trading. Huh??
  17. Just increased the timeout on a BuildForge command that was timing out after 5 minutes. How long was a successful run? 5:01 :-p
  18. Surprised at how easy it was to swap the hard drives between my Thinkpad and the loaner Thinkpad I got while mine is being serviced.
  19. Trying to remember if I did all 500 things I was supposed to do today... Why do I have a feeling I only did 499?
  20. @eric_andersen Re: climate change summit & pollution... Reminds me of U.N. leaders feasting at their hunger summit: http://bit.ly/2TOX50
