I think I may have found the NAS/router/server I have been looking for, it's got 4 hot swappable sata bays(raid), 3 usb ports, 2 gigabit lan ports, and you can get a usb wifi dongle and have it act as an AP, software wise it has; print server, ip cam support, lots of protocols for media streaming, FTP & BT support, mounts ISO files, some client side remote backup/restore software, web server. I wasn't going to post this but for fucks sake it does everything, and some of you could use one, 350$ + whatever you want to spend on drives.

I just started my first batch of hard cider, the apple juice is in the carboy pasteurizing(campden) and I have the yeast starter going, I was hoping to have this ready for the 6th but I missed the pressing at the cider house last week and they just pressed this week(~4 hours ago, because if I'm going to get ripped of on cider prices I'd rather have it fresh from my local orchard strait to the carboy than price rite crap with god knows what in it). I will give it a taste test on the 5th and if its palatable and alcoholic I'll bring some, but no promises.

The enthusiasm my freinds show for raining beer amazes me in an intriguing fashion.

The list includes a coleco vision, odyssey2, a couple of 2600s multiples of almost everything Nintendo made(inc VB) up to the GC, same for sega I may even have a nomad if you want me to look for it, a couple of questionable xboxs and playstation +many accessories, adapters, spare parts, and games. Some of it is modded, some of it I can mod, if that's of interest email me.

yeah so you can rest assured that boondock saints II is not a craptastic sequel, in fact I would say it rocks.

50X campden tablets - 1.95$ we could have dechlorinated ~1000 gallons with that much, never having to figure out what to do with ~500 gallons of over chlorinated/contaminated drinking water in the middle of the desert again - priceless.

Oh omap 4 why must you always be passed over for arm 11, that makes 3 gadgets that I was interested in that have gone old hat rather than new sexy.

EDIT:
I'm disappointed because I want a smart phone with enough power to double as a netbook, being as I plan to grab a redfly when they start to show up on ebay cheap.
But on the bright side the Acer Liquid looks drool worthy.
Acer Liquid specks:
- 1 GHz Qualcomm 8250
- 512MB ROM / 256MB RAM
- microSD (up to 32 GB)
- 3.8" 800x480 WVGA capacitive touchscreen
- 5 MP camera with AF
- WiFi / Bluetooth / miniUSB
- GPS / Accelerometer
- 3.5mm jack
- GSM/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900
- HSPA 900, 1900, 2100
- 1350 mAh LiIon
- 118.6 x 63 x 12mm
- 130g


I wonder if it can do USB host mode, it has everything I have been waiting for in a smart phone except for a physical keyboard, now for the waiting.

I just realized what the creepy thing about FaceBook is, have you ever been told a story about your self from one of your friends that they heard from a someone else? So the creepy thing is if you ever look at an event none of your friends have been invited to and see people you have mutual friends with but don't know listed as confirmed and realize that each and every one of them can potentially retell stories to your freinds, fucking creepy, but maybe its just me that likes to keep my social circles fairly isolated.

So after a little bit of experimentation with my 1.5 kw teakettle and inflatable dome tent I have real hope of owning my vary own inflatable steam bath. =P After about half an hour it seemed to stabilize at 105 Fahrenheit(60 outside), about 70 shy of being a right proper steam bath temperature. Now I either need more insulation or more power, possibly both. I have only taped the window flaps shut for this test, long term I should cut out some foam board to plug them with from the inside, I also need to make a better door, the zipper got fubared at burning man, for now I have been using some bubble wrap taped around the door, it loses less heat than you would think.

So I think my next step shall be to properly insulate the thing and if that fails I'll just have to bring in another heating element, in theory I can pull 900 W more before blowing a standard breaker. I can also try putting the reflectix wrap on but I don't think it will make a big difference in this situation, throwing more power at it is by far the easier solution.

So I'm debating if I should go out tonight, I just had the cold from hell, sore throat migraine and coughing up more flem than I thought was possible. Since Wednesday morning I have only managed to get out of bed for food, but today I feel much better(read ~normal) and have it in my mind to get out and be sociable, but I don't want to make others sick so do I stay home or go out and avoid coughing near anyone?

My Hobie: not giving a shit when your phone/computer/gizmo goes ring/beep/boop and woke you up/interrupted your meditation/bothered you because I texted/emailed/imed you. Control Your digital lifestyle, RTFM and learn how to set up selective beeping or use the mute button when you mustn't be interrupted, otherwise kindly STFU.

I find this ad rather humorous.
