Side projects: Doggie Daycare Cams

It’s no joke: we love (love!) our pup Thatcher. So much that one or two days a week we’ll drop her off at doggie day care to enjoy the pack for the day. To that end, we’re big supporters of a local business here in Erie called Bowhaus, which also provides live indoor and outdoor [...]

…MS Flight Simulator back?

I’ve recently become re-hooked on MS Flight Simulator 2004 (since FSX kinda sucks in comparison, IMHO). Ask my wife where I disappear to every now and then and she’ll tell you: “He’s flying from Baltimore to Miami or something.” Well, that or a heavy thunderstorm ILS approach to Sea-Tac in a 737-400.

Awesome iFixit awesomeness now free

This is huge for anyone who owns an Apple product and has ever dealt with having to fix, say, a keyboard that your cat puked on (ask me how I know this…): iFixit has released it’s fixit guides for iPhones, iPods, Macbooks, and Mac desktops under a Creative Commons license. For the average person, this [...]
