My new EEE PC 900
I just got it today and I’m very happy with it. It is exactly what I wanted; light, small, and powerful enough to do everyday things like web surfing and email.
The Linux install on it by default (Xandros, modified to work specifically on the EEE) is a bit of a pain to work with — [...]
Spore, SecuROM, and why DRM doesn’t work
I’ve personally never had any problems with SecuROM. If I ever did have a problem with it when trying to play a game I purchased legally, however, I wouldn’t hesitate to download an illegal, pirated copy of the game. I’m sure I’m not the only one that feels this way.

First, McCain criticized Obama for being inexperienced, and specifically for lacking foreign policy experience. Now, McCain’s running [...]
(unofficial) final episode of Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends
An alternate (unofficial, obviously) ending to the Cartoon Network show “Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends.” Impressive artwork and interesting topic, but sad.
I haven’t really seen much of the show, but I do know that the show is done almost entirely in Flash, which is pretty impressive. The artwork in this comic isn’t bad either, though [...]
Ad blocking in Google Chrome
I’ve been using Chrome for days now as my main browser in Windows, and I’m very happy with it. It’s ridiculously fast (around 3x faster according to this test). One thing it lacks, however, is an ad blocker. Luckily, I have been using Privoxy for a while, and it blocks ads regardless of what browser you’re [...]
