fail0verflow Ninja Sneaks Linux Into a PS3 Slim and Puts Videos On YouTube

I have absolutely no desire to run Linux on my dinosaur of a PS3, Steve. I’m geeky but I don’t consider myself that geeky. That and I’m pretty sure Steve would catch on fire. However, I am geek enough to get just how cool this is for folks who love them some Linux and for… Continue reading fail0verflow Ninja Sneaks Linux Into a PS3 Slim and Puts Videos On YouTube

Today we make the not so long journey back to Arkansas. Don’t come to our apartment and steal our stuff since the only electronic thing we’re leaving is our TV and that dude is huge and heavy and you’ll herniate yourself and you’ll still be on the floor when we get home. And then you’d look… Continue reading Real Live Facebook and Christmas Lights Videos

This is a derivative work. I added the text, changed the color levels and cropped the image.

Ever since I got my Samsung Captivate, I’ve been using it to read ebooks. I don’t see my phone and the digital version of books to ever completely replace paper books for me, but the digital version does come in awfully handy. After trying out different ebook apps, I’ve decided Laputa Pro is my favorite.… Continue reading Christmas on the Cheap for the Booklover

Baby Feeds Taste Like Crazy

The feeds don't REALLY taste like crazy...cause you can't eat them.

They don’t really taste like crazy. That was just low hanging fruit. But now you’re thinking, “Amy, what the heck are talking about and why are you writing an entire post about these ‘baby feeds’?” I’m glad you asked! First off, baby feeds is what I’m calling the category feeds I’ve set up. The ones… Continue reading Baby Feeds Taste Like Crazy

What have I gotten myself into? You might have noticed the little pink box over on the right that says, “I’m speaking!” Yay and stuff! Except talking to a group of people scares the crap out of me.

Jeopardy!’s Ken Jennings & Brad Rutter Take On IBM’s Watson for 1M Bucks

This is a geek/tech/dork thing. If you’re not interested in increasing your dork authority, then I suggest you head to my archives and check out the stuff there since I’ve written some cool stuff—if I do say so myself.
