End of Quest for Perfect Window Manager

It seems that I have finally come to a decision about the perfect Window Manager (at least for me), and that is just simply vanilla enlightement. I am not sure what else to ask for, I have tried fluxbox, blackbox, windowmanager, along with several more. Some had nice features, like the fluxbox/black box with the […]

Automatic Class Scheduler

A&M has a nice registration system, where you simply enter the Department/CourseNumber/Section number and if there are slots open it lets you register for that class.

Hitachi on the other hand, just did a press release on their new technology to orient the bits in hard drive a different way to increase the data density, causing more data to be packed into a single hard drive, almost […]

A Basket Case

This was done about a year ago, when I was too lazy to carry my whole computer to some event due to its size and unease of carrying. When such situation comes up one starts to think of ways to reduce the weight. The problem with it was the steep computer case, which accounted for […]

Its Alive

As you can see, I have finally set up and organized website. I had one before, but the only thing it said was it was under construction. Expect to find ideas and projects I am currently working on, and other interesting things. This will not be a site where I come to whine about my […]
