here's a better one: read the whole post ;)

The amount of redundancy is how you know he's really a system admin. Laptop/Ipad/KVM/thumbdrive, moleskin/notebook, pens/sharpies/pencils/crayons, toolkit/toolkit.

Yep, self-promotion is important. I'm angling for a vacated position at my work right now that is completely aligned with my career goals, but my superiors were "surprised" to find out I was interested. I think they're still seriously considering me, and while this opportunity popped up sooner than I thought it would,…

I'm firmly in the rooting camp, but I think most people here have that argument covered for me. Instead, I want to share an argument/tip for the more middle of the road crowd:

I lead a life of embarrassing missteps punctuated by excelling at esoteric skills when chance arises. Such is why I need life hacks. I'm pretty good at befriending cats though; there's no doubt about it.

His name is Bother. He's quite the sassy fellow, but he's also quite charming. :D

I adore my Mohu Leaf, but a word of caution if you're using the amplified version with a DVR. A lot of TVs don't push power through their USB port while turned off, so you'll want to use the regular AC adapter if you want reliable recordings when you aren't home. I found this out the hard way :)

As someone who actually does professional work using GIMP, I can say for a fact that you are wrong. GIMP is comparable to Photoshop on a number of levels. It can't do absolutely everything that Photoshop can do, but it can do a heck of a lot, and certainly enough for many professional artists. The areas where…

Why: so far it opens everything I throw at it. (Period)
