The SUN side of life: Thanks Igor (or how to get VT-x on a Sony notebook)
http://phaedrus77.blogspot.com/2009/03/thanks-igor-or-how-to-get-vt-x-on-sony.html
The SUN side of life. Monday, March 16, 2009. Thanks Igor (or how to get VT-x on a Sony notebook). I already ranted about Sony disabling VT-x in all notebooks (except for the BZ line). They also don't want to release a BIOS were one could actually change settings other than boot device order. There have been tutorials about patching the NVRAM on models with a phoenix bios for quite some time. Unfortunately mine uses an UEFI based AMI Aptio bios so until now I was out of luck. Thanks a lot Igor! I too hav...

Windows 7 DPI scaling: my 7 is bigger than your 7 | istartedsomething
http://www.istartedsomething.com/20081029/windows-7-dpi-scaling-my-7-is-bigger-than-your-7
October 29, 2008. Windows 7 DPI scaling: my 7 is bigger than your 7. You may not know it, but you are very likely to be using a high dots-per-inch (DPI). Display today, especially if you use a laptop smaller than 15-inches. The fact is, if you use Windows XP, or even Windows Vista, you are actually not getting the most out of your monitor. If you have to squint or lower the resolution then you know what I’m talking about. You know how high DPIs look in Windows Vista. So how does it look in Windows 7?

Windows Vista DPI scaling: my Vista is bigger than your Vista | istartedsomething

December 11, 2006. Windows Vista DPI scaling: my Vista is bigger than your Vista. As anyone who uses an ultra-portable laptop would know, reading ultra-minimalistic weblogs with 9px-sized fonts on a high-resolution 1400×1050 display panel spanning an entire 12″ is like an everyday blessing for eye-care companies. Now’s a good time to invest in the laser eye surgery business. The more pixels, the clearer the image. I’ve put together this comparison to show you exactly that. As you can see, the interface s...

A Somewhat Integrated Life. Aka how I attempt to integrate technology into my life. Friday, September 10, 2010. OpenWRT 10.03 on TP-Link WR-1043ND wifi not accessible.

This time, it immediately detected the wifi interface, and I'm now happily using and exploring OpenWRT. June 27, 2011 at 5:10 PM. Theres been a numbe...

The garbage lady story | Schrockthehouse
https://schrockthehouse.wordpress.com/the-garbage-lady-story
The garbage lady story. The garbage lady story. This story is an account of my first (and so far only) foray into private detective work. These events took place in the summer of 2003, since which time my friend. Has been bugging me to post the story so he can link to it from his blog. Don’t say I never did anything for you Raymond…it only took 5 years…. A plastic grocery sack full of garbage appeared across the side street from my home. I thought this was dumb. Why would someone be so inconsiderate?
