  • Font Smoothing for Windows Server 2003 RDP

    A few days ago Peter Provost blogged about Brad Wilson's Dark Visual Studio color scheme. I decided to try it out (again) since I felt like I needed a little change in my coding environment.

  • How did I break Google Maps?

    On my Windows Server 2008 laptop, if I open Google Maps in the browser this is what I get: Everything is totally scrambled.  It used to work just fine in IE8, but now it is completely broken. I've tried turning Emulate IE7 on and off, clearing my browser cache, etc, but nothing seems to fix it....

    Yesterday I rode in the 2008 Tour De Cure which was part of my 2008 goals for the year. I rode the 65 mile route in 4 hours and 20 minutes (which turned into 67 miles after I took on wrong turn).

  • Longest Certification Title Ever

    I just recently found out that I passed the WF 3.5 beta exam (well, actually I passed it some time ago but it took Prometric, the world's worst test provider, a while to figure out how to send the score to Microsoft). So here is my new logo: Since they wrap a lot of the words, you really need to spell...

  • Don't Tell Me How To Run My Laptop

    I went to install Live Mesh on my Windows Server 2008 Laptop just now and got this lovely message: I had run with UAC enabled for some time but finally got tired of all the flashing and waiting that goes on whenever I start Hyper-V manager, want to change a network setting, or even when I just want to...

  • Riding for a Cause (or two)

    Back in January I posted my goals for the year of exercising, regular blogging, and better time management. I was doing pretty good on the first two until I was staffed on an out-of-town project which made exercising more difficult and took all my time for blogging. For time management I started using...

Knowing myself fairly well I new that I needed to take a phased approach where I would start with working out one day a week and doing one bike ride per week and then each month add one more day. That approach worked great...

  • Installing Subversion as a Windows NT Service

    Each time I set this up I always have to google to remember how to do it. The last time I set it up I came across James Kovacs' post on the subject which works great. The only thing I usually end up adding is the --listen-port=x since many clients do not allow me to open up a new hole in the firewall...
