  1. Building an HTPC was an awesome idea. Alright have ROI after a year and can record nearly unlimited shows. Next upgrade, 4tb drives.
  2. I just saw that app idea from either Ars or Hacker News. I like the idea. Never played with Bluetooth before so I'm not really sure about it
  3. An app to bump pics from your phone to your computer? Bluetooth maybe? I've never really thought about it. Might be fun to build.
  4. I'm a fan of some of these ecards. twitter.com/_neckbeard/sta…

  6. Altered to remove the PK and index and added it back. Now its ordering correctly. Also updated to InnoDB. Was it just MyISAM causing it?
  7. I honestly miss working with MS SQL server. This MySql stuff is messing with my head. Even after 2 years of it. Some strange behaviors in it
  8. A #MySql unique primary key isn't also an order? Why must you be so difficult to work with MySql. Or did 4 become the 3?
  9. By all of this "logic" I'm not from Michigan. But apparently people think we're all inbred idiots based on this. twitter.com/_neckbeard/sta…
  10. @scottgal also we have outbound interfacing that works over TCP that's also in VB6. It's interesting to say the least.
  11. @scottgal the company I work for uses TCP sockets to talk to a server running on an AIX box. Everything now is in VB6 w/ WinSock. Not pretty
  12. Seeing @scottgal talk about socket stuff makes me want to go learn it. I'm going to need to eventually anyway. Hmm now do I have the time to
  13. My voice is doing much better today. Perhaps it will be totally resolved by tomorrow.
  14. 3.2 miles on the bike in 10 minites. Needs to be faster. #gottagofast

  16. @gshackles excellent! Maybe I'll see about it here on my long weekend....
  17. @gshackles I'm taking notes and learning from successes here. I'm needing to brew my own as well.
  18. @ensuhingchaos haha never thought of it like that before. So is the park. But unless you have kids youd look like a creeper. Thx pedophiles.
