WHOA! SuperFuture switched to vBulletin!!!
VERY NICE!!! I hated the old forum software they had at SF, now with vB it’s MUCH MUCH better!! 😀 The downtime was def worth it (it was hard to go a weekend without SF though, I must admit)…

Another raw denim progress update
My RRDS are 9 weeks old, APC NS are at around 14 weeks, but I rock them both so they are really 4.5 and 7 weeks old respectively. Using available light this time, but they don’t look that much different, and I skate in them every day, I guess I need to learn how to ollie to help add some crazy wear on them…

This was a really cool lens
Another one on my wishlist… Not all that useful, and I don’t really wanna buy more Canon lenses in case I switch to Nikon. 😉
Not having an effective aperture readout is really pissing me off…
Server rebooted
I am uneasy every time I have to reboot my server remotely, my Treo wouldn’t stop ringing if my clients’ sites are offline for an extended period of time. Yesterday I had to upgrade my kernel due to several remote and local exploits, I used Aptitude to upgrade my kernel packages and the installation script advised me to reboot ASAP as some of the kernel modules were modified. I guess I didn’t have any kernel modules that are reloaded on the fly, so my server actually worked fine without a reboot. I waited til 2am PDT to do a reboot and it magically came back up. Kudos to the Debian kernel packages maintainers. 🙂

Kaws x Reas Figures
These are DOPENESS, I am really digging KAWS stuff now… I tried to draw the KAWS’ed Mickey on my whiteboard at work but I failed miserably. When Sherry is back I’ll ask her to draw it for me…

Getting the Evo ready for track season
I’m gonna bring the Evo to San Rafael Mitsubishi this Friday to get diff and tranny fluid flush, brake/clutch line flush with Motul 600, and a free oil change. I just found out my car has “free maintenance”, but it doesn’t cover fluid flush until 30k miles.
I also got a K&N drop-in air filter coming in, and I need some new front tires as they are worn down to the wear bars (again!). After that my car should be ready for the track. 😀 I should probably get some dedicated track wheels and tires, coz these Advan A046’s only last about 1-2 weekends and they’re crazy expensive.
It really sucks to be without my tools and a garage.
SRM has been highly praised at the NorCalEvo forum, and they have a “speed shop” next door that carries good stuff like WORKS products. I’ve talked to a few of the SRM guys on the phone and they were all Evo enthusiasts, and best of all, they are very mod and track-friendly.

PLAY
The specialty chipmaker, whose audio decoder chips have found their way into the nerve center of Apple’s most popular iPods — including the iPod nano and fifth-generation video player — has laid off 45 employees. That’s about 14 percent of its total staff.As a result of the move, PortalPlayer expects to incur a restructuring charge of $850,000 to $950,000 in its current quarter, according to the report. But in the long run, the company figures the lay offs will save it $6 million to $7 million in expenses.

SlingPlayer for Mac delayed by a quarter
JeremyT (Sling Media)’s Blog – Mac Update:
Well, I have a bit of news. Unfortunately, while it’s probably not exactly what you wanted to hear, I hope you understand just how tricky some things are to manage for a small company. Bottom line is despite our initial intent to deliver a Mac/OSX version of the SlingPlayer in Q2’06, we are moving our target to Q3’06.
Well, no Slingbox for me til Q3’06. 🙂

How to add Flickr banners onto sites like MySpace and Friendster
So you use Flickr and you built your cool Flickr badge, you’re all ready to show it off at your MySpace profile, only to find out that most of these sites don’t like JavaScript (nor iframes), mainly because whoever created these site didn’t really know what they were doing… Here’s a way to display some of your Flickr pics dynamically at these sites:
- go to Organizr and tag some pictures with a unique tag, I use “slide.com”
- if you don’t already have a Slide.com account, get one
- view your Flickr pics by tags, and click on “slidecom”, (the direct URL will look like http://www.flickr.com/photos/your_name/tags/slidecom/), it should display a list of pics tagged with “slidecom”
- near the bottom of the the page there should be an RSS feed link, copy the URL
- go to http://www.slide.com/feed, paste in the URL you just copied
- It will then generate the code you’d need to display these pics at your MySpace page
So, now when you tag your pics with “slide.com” at Flickr and they will show up at your Slide.com Flash photo banner, obviously, to remove pics just delete the tag. Unfortunately there is not an easy way to batch-remove tags at Flickr at this point.
