Updates: Zend Optimizer, Flight 93

Was able to install Zend Optimizer. Updated PHP, and used another install script. Went perfectly.

Flight 93, as predicted was in the news again

Need some gaming

Games, games, games, games, games.

Americas Army 1.9 is Gold. Was able to find a copy already posted. Got medic certification. Surprisingly identical to Red Cross certification (just shorter). Awesome update. Great work on behalf of the AA:O Team. Definitely worth the wait!

My favorite game of all Time F/A-18 Hornet has been updated yet again! F/A-18 Operation Iraqi Freedom. Seems like a sweet game, at a real low price. Check out some screenshots. I loved 2.0, and 3.0 (never got into Korea). This game appears to be a “must have”… since I must have it!

Better go to sleep.

California Govenor

I have to admit, I’m for Gary Coleman. Check out his agenda. How can you not like the guy?

I’d bet that Arnold (official site) will win. But will end up like Jessie Ventura.

More proof that the dot com’s would have done better on the east coast, where people are a bit more rational.

Mozilla Foundation’s Asa Dotzler is also running. Awesome!

Flight 93

Interesting report surfaced about Flight 93… wonder how long until people sue the federal government claiming the FBI made it up.

Zend Optimizer

Trying to get Zend Optimizer running successfully. So far no success. Will try again tomorrow with a clean installation of PHP. Perhaps that was the problem.

Can’t find reports of it working, or not working, so I will assume the best.

I’m sooooooo tired

I’m so tired, I haven’t slept a wink
I’m so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No,no,no.

I’m so tired I don’t know what to do
I’m so tired my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you but I know what you’d do

You’d say I’m putting you on
But it’s no joke, it’s doing me harm
You know I can’t sleep, I can’t stop my brain
You know it’s three weeks, I’m going insane
You know I’d give you everything I’ve got
for a little peace of mind

I’m so tired, I’m feeling so upset
Although I’m so tired I’ll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid get.
– John Lennon

Me tired… need sleep

Programming Web Development

Neet little effect and other html related goodness.

This little effect seems pretty cool. I think I’m going to have to try implementing it on the new design soon.

So far all is well with the new design. Tested in the following browsers:

  • IE 5.5 Windows
  • IE 6 Windows
  • IE 5 Mac
  • Netscape 4 Mac
  • Netscape 4 Windows
  • Mozilla 1.x/Derivatives
  • Safari
  • OmniWeb
  • iCab
  • Opera

All browsers render the site properly. Amazing what some valid HTML does.

Over the next few days I will try and consolidate some code a bit, as well as implement the design on the remaining pages.

Networking

IBM Access Connections

For those without Macs. IBM’s Access Connections is what makes Thinkpads feel a bit Mac like.

It allows the computer to change network configs real nice and quick. Kind of like Location manager. Also is capable of automatically finding your network between multiple network adapters. Much more mac like than Windows XP is by default.

Not quite OS X, but it saves me a TON of time.

WiFi is sweet. Perhaps one day I shall document a bit more of good home networking.

Web Panels

Asa’s got some cool screenshots on webpanels for firebird posted

Can’t wait to get my hands on those.

Sidenote: Seem to be linking to Asa quite a bit. Good blog, and of course he’s great at informing the Mozilla community about what’s going on. Thanks Asa!
