On Vox: Online financial software [May. 31st, 2009|08:41 pm]

Has anyone found an online financial software package that allows you to add your own accounts and transactions?

I've tried three of them; mint, wesabe, and quicken online. These all depend on handing your security credentials to them and they will pull the data for you. I want a piece of software that doesn't violate the basic rules of security and lets me add accounts that I want... importing my old information would also be a plus.

All of this brought on by the fact that Intuit hasn't put out a new version of Quicken for Mac in almost three years.

The test results are in! [Sep. 18th, 2008|03:12 pm]
There's nothing physically wrong with me. Hurray *waves tiny flag*

There are chances it will occur again but hopefully not for a long time, and the doctor said that people don't die from atrial fibrulation.

To celebrate, I think I'll get myself a motorcycle. :)

I took today off. [Sep. 15th, 2008|06:28 am]
and I just got back from the ER. I had an atrial fibrulation (sp?). Apparently my heart was running at about 200BPM and skipping beats. It's a long overdue bedtime now.

Update...

They gave me drugs: Toerol XL 50mg.

They had a nickname for this of "Holiday Heart". So named because people will often come in with it after binge drinking or something. I was in Napa yesterday tasting wines so that could be a possible cause.

I hate software [Sep. 9th, 2008|06:14 pm]

OSX: The item "bigfile.sparseimage" cannot be copied because there is not enough free space.

I check, 500GB free on the target, 20GB file. I try making a directory.... works fine. I try copying a small file.... same error.

After checking logs and whatnot I realize that this is probably a machine that hasn't been on in a very long time. Check the clock... It's 1999, fix it. Error goes away.

I'm sorry, Apple... how can a clock set to before the turn of the century make it believe that there isn't enough disk space. Do the greater-than/less-than operators change meaning depending on the season?

So, the ipod touch has no mail or feed client? It seems even more useless to me now.

Accent meme [Nov. 10th, 2007|12:40 am]
[Tags|]

What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)

Neutral

You're not Northern, Southern, or Western, you're just plain -American-. Your national identity is more important than your local identity, because you don't really have a local identity. You might be from the region in that map, which is defined by this kind of accent, but you could easily not be. Or maybe you just moved around a lot growing up.

UFO? Roach motel? Drum brake? [Oct. 5th, 2007|09:44 pm]


It's actually a crisping sleeve that came with a small microwavable (but I'm not using the microwave) pizza that I just bought. I'm now wondering if they offer engineering degrees for microwave food. I'm also never paying money for one of these pizzas again.

Saw "Stardust" today, and liked it very much. Love the story and characters, and I would recommend it to anyone who would like fantasy films.

Also, a few weeks ago I was visiting [info]ovaltine8, [info]pimento amd [info]julsey in Seattle. We went and saw the wonderful show "Young Frankenstein" at the Paramount theater, and that was wonderful as well.

I've got like 500 or more burned CD/DVD media with data on them. Data which I don't think other people should have, but not sensitive data. Anyone have ideas on how I can dispose of them?

(At least with 3.5" diskettes I could erase them)

Caltrain... you fail this. [Aug. 6th, 2007|08:16 pm]
Apparently there was a train accident around 6pm on southbound tracks. I arrived at the Caltrain station at 6:50 to find the 6:33 train waiting for boarding. We cruised down the peninsula to Millbrae, made one stop and then stopped near San Mateo.

Now the lights have gone out, and the engine pulling us has apparently failed. We're waiting for the train behind us to link up, and push us into the next station. Then we get to disembark... and get on the train behind us to finally go home.

I guess I might get home 2 hours or more after I left work... bleh.

I've never done this before. [Jul. 23rd, 2007|05:36 pm]

Dear Lazyweb,

I need to drive 4 (or possibly even up to 8) SATA disks from Linux with software raid and am having a difficult time finding any decent controller cards.

I've gone poking around on/at Newegg, Buy.com, Central Computer, Frys, CompUSA, and Best Buy so far.

Any suggestions welcome, but I've already tried the Promise controllers (big mistake).

Love,
hachi

Harry Potter OOTP [Jul. 23rd, 2007|03:01 am]
[Tags|, , ]

I went and saw Harry Potter on IMAX in 3D this weekend. I liked it, the 3d effect was a definite good thing to add to the end of the movie. IMAX does make the film better though because there were zero previews before the film, and the guys who run that projector seem to actually care more about focusing the image on the screen. Oh yeah, and the screen is bigger.

Would have liked to see Transformers on that screen, in 3D. Oh well.

Upgrading disk space. [Jul. 23rd, 2007|02:13 am]

I did not have any good luck with hard disks this past week. )

I do not like Promise SATA cards at all. )

It was somewhat worth it though when I got to the end and Linux reported this:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/red-all 2.1T 198M 2.0T 1% /red

I just shaved. This really wouldn't be noteworthy except I accidentally had the trimmer facing the wrong way when I took the first pass at my beard, which took all the hair off down to the skin.

D'oh.

Guess I'll try not having a beard for a few days.
