I can do it in under a minute or so. I don’t even have closest to the fastest package either.

The biggest change that I like is the upload speeds. I can update MyBB via FTP faster than ever. Video? No sweat!

Now I used to have Comcast as my TV provider. It was nice, but the On Demand section felt old, clunky, buggy, annoying, slow, and outdated. The FiOS On Demand looks much more promising. It actually lets you search the on demand selection. Something Comcast didn’t have and was one of the more annoying aspects of it.

I love it. If it’s in your area, get it… Now. :D

PS: To avoid confusion I’m referring to the Verizon FiOS service. ;)

I seriously cannot wait! There’s a chance the installation might be done while I’m at school. I hope not. I wanna see this for myself. The technology is fairly interesting. If they don’t do it while I’m in school I might blog about the proccess. Should be fairly cool.

I hope I can write some less personal stuff and more tips, tricks, and tutorials soon! :D

It’s not a pretty thought. I gotta get the rest of my backpack together. Hopefully this year will be better than the rest I’ve had. I’m not sure how much homework will await me this year but um… it’s gonna be alot. Probably.

O noez! This means less time for blogging! This means less time for IRC! This means less time developing web applications! :o That’s funny, I just noticed that this post has an ID of exactly 700. Meh, more randomness. I can’t wait for the next summer break. :lol:

It’s gonna be really weird not being able to sleep in or no longer being able to not sleep. *Sigh…* Ah well.

Actually, I did think it would come, but it adds drama don’t ya think? Can’t wait for some awesome ice cream cake! Later today I’ll be leaving for vacation. I’ll be gone for a week, but hopefully there will still be Wi-Fi. :P

Happy birthday to me! :D

It’s now just seven days from my birthday. It’s on May 30! Nothing really special about that date but, according to Wikipedia, Joan of Arc was burned at the stake on May 30, 1431.

Eyewitnesses described the scene of the execution by burning on 30 May 1431. Tied to a tall pillar in the Vieux-Marche in Rouen, she asked two of the clergy, Fr Martin Ladvenu and Fr Isambart de la Pierre, to hold a crucifix before her. A peasant also constructed a small cross which she put in the front of her dress. After she expired, the English raked back the coals to expose her charred body so that no one could claim she had escaped alive, then burned the body twice more to reduce it to ashes and prevent any collection of relics. They cast her remains into the Seine. The executioner, Geoffroy Therage, later stated that he “…greatly feared to be damned.”

I’m not so sure that’s something to be proud of. Yay, I ended a sentence with a preposition and there’s nothing you can do about it. :P

I’ve been really busy lately mainly with homework. Unfortunately, this means minimal time on IRC. I wouldn’t be on at all if it wasn’t for my iPod Touch. :D Hope you guys are keeping it together without me. ;)

]]> http://blog.stupidpoodles.com/2009/05/7-days/feed/ 3 Spring! It’s upon us! http://blog.stupidpoodles.com/2009/03/spring-its-upon-us/ http://blog.stupidpoodles.com/2009/03/spring-its-upon-us/#comments Wed, 25 Mar 2009 00:00:59 +0000 Kevin http://blog.stupidpoodles.com/?p=556 Here it is. The fourth and final quarter of the 2008-2009 school year. (Not to mention the spring season itself.) It’s been fun, perilous, and just about everything else you can think of.

You might have noticed a sudden decrease in my Forum and IRC activity. I’ve taken that time to use for studying. I want to end this final quarter with some good grades I can be proud of. The kind of grades you’d expect of me. Let me tell ya, third quarter was anything but something to be proud of.

You’re probably wondering, “What’s gonna change?” First, you won’t see me on IRC much at all. Except for short random bursts when I have the time. As far as the Forums go I’ll try to make it on once a day. This blog? I’ll try to keep it updated but don’t expect any information rich long posts. After all, they’ll probably written on my iPod Touch. But hey, ya never know. Support from me will be on an as-is basis but Brad, Amber, Craig, and our other staff will be there to help.

Thanks and if you have any questions feel free to ask! ;)

Like an iPhone/iPod Touch or your standard cell phone. I’ll go into more detail on how I accomplished this later. But till then, why don’t you try it out! ;)

PS: At the bottom of the mobile version of the blog there is a link that will let you see the default blog theme. Just as if you were on your computer. :)

Yeah, that’s one day from now. Seriously though. I should be working on that and not tying this up. It’s gonna be some geek/ajaxy/php/coding thing. :P

I also recieved some great feedback on both, “Hooked” on XP and Infinite Blue Thanks for all your comments and suggestions. I’m happy that in, the XP post that I was able to show a few of you that we need to stop blaming everybody else on our problems. The release of my Infinite Blue theme was a complete success and was the first custom theme for my blog. I’ll probably push a new theme out sometime in May 2009. Yay! :D
