A friend showed me this site today. Just spreading the word a bit.

With Internet Explorer 7 and 8 out and active, there just isn’t a need for version 6 anymore. Version 6 doesn’t support transparencies in images nor does it really fully support full standards-compliant CSS.

Enough rambling. Everyone who has XP needs to upgrade to at least 7. I don’t recommend 8 because it’s slightly unstable in XP. But definitely 7.

I know we keep needing more and more passwords as life moves on. Face it. As the Internet gets more and more interactive, the more and more we, the users, have to actually login and create a password. For the heck of it, I wanted to test my PC password strength tonight. To my surprise it not only gave it a low score, but it also wouldn’t accept the whole thing! It limited it to 16 characters. But I found out what makes a good password and, long though it is, my computer’s password just doesn’t cut the strength these days.

So, the place I found was here: http://www.passwordmeter.com. You don’t have to submit the password, it uses JavaScript to analyze the password you type. That ways it stays where only you will see it. But because it limits to 16 characters, I hit the download link and modified it slightly here: http://www.adamh.us/pwdmeter/

So have at it and enjoy trying to find a good simple password that you can use that’s secure.

Many people have wondered if I’m really done with music videos for Kim Possible. And the answer is “Yes, I am.” It’s time to move on. That was my last one. I may still use my YouTube for other things, but not for uploading KP videos. So here it is:

I appreciate the support and everything, but I have to be done. There’s nothing else. The show’s ended. Over. So don’t ask me for episodes or videos.

Thanks!

I have to say I agree with him. Obama isn’t cutting it. Don’t get me wrong, like the guy at the beginning, I don’t agree with all of the solutions in the video, but it’s time something happens. And it only will if we make it happen.

…Not! At least not in Windows Me… Has anyone ever heard good things about Me? Has anyone really had good things to say about Me? I certainly haven’t heard any. Anyway, the reason I bring this up is because about 3 years ago (March 2006) I was working part-time at a computer repair place and there was this HP laptop that someone had brought in that had Me on it. I stuck in my utilities mini-CD to run some stuff. That’s when I noticed a slight discrepancy with the size pie. Windows is notorious for getting sizes wrong on a burned CD-R anyway, but this was just ridiculous! The CD has 146 MB of data. And here’s the screenshot of it. Not modified in any way. Straight screen shot.

So, enjoy!

Hello all! I know that this blog doesn’t really match the color scheme of my site, but I’m too lazy to do anything with it. I’m not sure what I’ll be using it for, but we’ll see. For now, I guess I’ll just use it to post updates.

Enjoy!
