Skunky Acre Farms: The Raccoons must be Starving...
http://skunkyacre.blogspot.com/2010/01/raccoons-must-be-starving.html
Organically grown farm fresh family living. Sunday, January 17, 2010. The Raccoons must be Starving. The night before last, our local Raccoon posse decided to invade our rooster pen. It did not go as planned. Even though carnage and death was involved, it was funny to see those three roosters open a can of destruction on the raccoons. We stopped it and scared off those furry little marauders. Posted by NM Illuminati. October 15, 2011 at 5:56 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Been Away Far Too Long.

churchmouse: el cheapo PJ arrives
http://muedemaus.blogspot.com/2011/07/el-cheapo-pj-arrives.html
Wednesday, July 13, 2011. El cheapo PJ arrives. Got the projector. Took less than a week from paypal to Chinese seller to delivery via DHL. Double boxed and packed quite well:. Since we were in the middle of playing Halo when the other PJ died we picked up where we left off:. It was dusk outdoors and you can see light from the windows in the top of the pic. Our first impressions of the hardware:. It's not a small projector but fits on the small table we were using before. Another fine SUV driver. Netflix...

Saturday, October 30, 2010. For years I have been begging vending machine operators to fill up one slot with random stuff and mark it "mystery", "random", or "guess". I in this morning's web browsing that somewhere someone finally did it. Thursday, October 28, 2010. 1st easter egger comes online. First egg from the nameless, spazzy EE. We call her "brown chicken". Whenever I pick up eggs from the nesting boxes I always thank the birds. Sounds silly but I think St. Francis was on to something. In the very...

Friday, May 20, 2011. Optimizing podcast playback on Optimus. I ran CyanogenMod Froyo 2.2.1 on my old G1 but am trying to keep the vanilla 2.2 on the Optimus T. The only thing I miss is the CM hack that allows you to do a no-look skip to the next track by holding the VOL UP button even when the screen is locked. I have reclaimed 90% of the CM podcast goodness using $3 of android apps. 1) will remap your hard buttons to your liking. I remapped my completely-unused Search. Hard button to be Next Track.

churchmouse: September 2010
http://muedemaus.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 27, 2010. I tore up my right shoulder earlier in the year and it finally got bad enough a couple of months ago to go visit the VA orthopedics team. My reading suggests rotator cuff. Scheduled for an MRI on Sunday and got it done. I was surprised at how loud it was and how long it took. The tomb-like nature of the thing didn't bother me; I fell asleep a couple of times during the imaging. Saturday, September 25, 2010. If you haven't looked at Tasker, check it out. This may be particularl...

churchmouse: Chess
http://muedemaus.blogspot.com/2011/07/chess.html
Saturday, July 16, 2011. Although I tend to work solo overnight, there are brief periods of. Overlap with other humans. One of those overlaps sometimes includes a break period. A cow-orker. Asked if I would like to play chess during this time. I said I wouldnt /like/ to, but I would do so. I have chess dyslexia. And I dont care for the game much. I cant. Tell if there is a chicken/egg relationship there or not. I cant see N. Moves into the future and I dont /care/ about N moves into the future. These are...

Friday, December 24, 2010. Over the past few weeks I've heard folks talking about a somewhat-lighter distro called antiX. Took it for a spin in virtualbox. Came up quickly with no drama. RAM usage in the screenshot above is 96MB with the browser open to m.cnn.com (accidentally typed the mobile version by habit). I'm impressed with the snappiness and memory use of the livecd version. I didn't try to install it yet. ISO, minimum ram, minimum HD, WM/DE. Antix: 484MB, 128MB, 1.2GB, IceWM/Fluxbox. Hangs for l...

Thursday, June 30, 2011. I have been researching small solar setups, of the type that feed a. Couple 12v deep cycle batteries. I am interested in using a small panel. To charge and maintain a deep cycle battery in my camper shell. The most interesting piece has been the charge controllers, the piece. That takes the varied level of power from the solar photovoltaic panels. PV hereafter) and keep the batts optimally charged. Both the inputs and outputs can be complex. Output is generally. 258a = 50 watts.
