Not actually my first since I did go out with my youngest for a short trip around some of the main trail last weekend, but the first serious ride. It’s been so much colder than normal for so long now and I usually don’t start taking the bike out till its at least 50F (I [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3640/feed 0 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3606 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3606#comments Sun, 07 Apr 2013 04:05:44 +0000 Nate http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/?p=3606
I was looking into getting a minecraft account for the kids, and not knowing much about the game I started out on wikipedia just to see what the hype about the game was all about. I know what the game looks like of course and in my mind it was just virtual lego, but I [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3606/feed 0 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3514 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3514#comments Sun, 20 Jan 2013 19:10:13 +0000 Nate http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/?p=3514
Back in December, 2011 when I first got my ASUS Transformer TF101 it came loaded with android 3.2 (Honeycomb). The OS was pretty slick, though Honeycomb was only the first tablet-ready android so there wasn’t a lot of polish to it. Over time I accepted the various ASUS-vetted updates to the tablet and eventually got [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3514/feed 2 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3498 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3498#comments Fri, 11 Jan 2013 02:48:56 +0000 Nate http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/?p=3498
Ive got a small and very underpowered System76 meerkat hooked up to my LCD TV.  The meerkat is the first “net top” they released in 2009 which you can think of as the desktop equivalent of a netbook (remember those?) and shipped with an Atom processor, one GB of RAM and an 80GB hard drive.  [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3498/feed 1 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3494 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3494#comments Mon, 17 Dec 2012 01:27:30 +0000 Nate http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/?p=3494
Being brought up outside of religious dogma its very strange when I find that I am more conservative and in many cases more morally grounded than some of my supposedly religious friends. IMO, moral grounding has nothing to do with belief in a supernatural power, it has everything to do with empathy. You can easily [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3494/feed 0 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3477 http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3477#comments Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:57:08 +0000 Nate http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/?p=3477
Recently one of my monitors at work was refusing to go on in the morning. I’ve got two: a Samsung SyncMaster 940T and an HP L1950. Its sort of a wierd setup in that the (now quite old) PC I’m using came with a single VGA output, so I ended up buying an add-on DVI [...]]]> http://www.in8sworld.net/blog/archives/3477/feed 2
