Aug. 27th, 2003 11:45 pmOk, damn it, I need help from the computer savvy out there. Here's the million dollar question: Can I connect two computers to the internet through a DSL modem using just a router or do I have to also purchase a hub? I'm well aware that I have to establish some kind of network, but I'm just talking hardware here.

Aug. 20th, 2003 03:20 pmThat stupid ass SoBig.F virus has latched onto my public email address. I think one of the computers I used on campus to check my email had the thing, and it started using my email to send the damn virus out. I've gotten at least 30 copies of it back to my email after other people opened it on their PCs. I'm about 85% sure I didn't open the file and infect the computer myself, because it looks a lot like spam. I don't read spam. I delete it.
It looks like the big blackout affected my life in one way afterall. Iowa State University gets its Stafford loans and pell grants from NYC, and the money was supposed to be wired here on Friday night. I don't think anything got wired out of anywhere in New England Friday, so naturally, there's a delay. Looks like I'm buying my textbooks with my credit card...

Aug. 12th, 2003 03:57 pmEverybody go to Google Search right now. Type in "weapons of mass destruction" and hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. You'll get an error message, but I want you to read the error message.

Jun. 5th, 2003 12:00 amNo, I didn't get eaten by coyotes. Dial up internet just sucks ass.
You guys haven't missed any major action going on in my life anyway. In about two weeks, I'm leaving for about three weeks to help out with my grandparents' wheat harvest, and I will be COMPLETELY without anything resembling internet. So yeah, that's just so you know what I'm up to.

Feb. 28th, 2003 01:17 pmIs anyone else having problems with Tripod? I've been trying to uploads some pictures, but it's being a pain in the ass. If it's not working by tonight, I'm switching to a different image host.
I need to go buy a battery for my camera and watch. Once I get my camera up and going, I'm going to start posting all kinds of pictures. In fact, I might as well just start a little webpage to post all my pictures on. Wheee! Project!

Feb. 23rd, 2003 11:21 pmI am never EVER eating Spaghetti-O's with Franks ever ever again. In fact, I think it has turned me off to Spaghetti-O's in general, which is a sad, sad realization. Was that processed meat or ground up rubber from bouncy balls? Ick.
WinMX sucks ass, but it doesn't have spyware or a lawsuit. I can't express enough how much I miss Kazaa. I've been downloading Silence by Delerium and Sarah MacLachlan for at least four hours now...and it's still at 4 fucking percent.
The smell of those Spaghetti-O's are still in the room. I think I'm going to be sick.

Everyone better start making drafts of my eulogy, because I just died of a heart attack. I've tried to reboot AIM four times now and I keep getting the same message.
...Better make it a stroke, too.

Dec. 18th, 2002 01:16 amI'm so frustrated right now that I could rip all my hair out. I've tried TWICE now to download LOTR: The Two Towers on Kazaa. That's about 3 hours of waiting, mind you. Even though the integrity said they were excellent, they both were fucking ZOOLANDER! What the hell am I supposed to do with that?! I've had it with downloading movies off of Kazaa. I'll just go see it in theater thanks. The quality's better anyway.

Nov. 30th, 2002 10:32 amMy new computer kicks ass!!! I can't wait to get it hooked up to the ethernet and see how fast it is. It took less than two seconds for it to burn a 3 MB song file to a CD. That's pretty damn fast. I'm having way too much fun with it. :)
I don't wanna go back tomorrow!!!! I have a 6 page paper to write about the creationism vs. evolution debate, and it's due Friday. I haven't even started on it yet. Why me?

Aug. 22nd, 2002 01:14 pmI'm moved in! Everything's unpacked and set up. Unfortunately, I found out yesterday that my hall doesn't have a computer lab, so I'm stuck going to a different hall to check my email and update my journal. AKA, less internet time.
Rawbery, I'm sorry I didn't stop in and see you Tuesday like I said I would. Putting together a loft and a futon takes longer than I originally thought. I will stop in soon, I promise.
