Ever operating system has its pro’s and cons. Well some have more cons then pro’s but what the hey. And since i’m a cross platform slider, I get to play around with both Linux Osx and Windows. In every OS there is something I like, something I wish I could "port over" to the other…
With all this holiday stuff I completely forgot that I needed to put my holiday pictures online ! Should have done that a few days ago. Especially since I took the time to shoot a LOT of pictures in the South of France AND I organized them all into sets on Flickr. So…
One of the cool things in Linux is that you hardly any hardware to interact with it. No fancy GUI, no hardcore processor etc … If you just run in command line mode only you can run linux on a slow machine or interact with machines over a slow connection. Putty and the terminal are…
It doesn’t happen a lot, but from time to time it does. I have some time to kill and quickly flip out my laptop to write up a little post. A quick scan of the wifi-area makes me realise that … damn.. this is a wifi-free zone. So there you are. A computer full of…
You know these stupid questionnaires .. about how the average "Computer Geek" might know 15 people on the other side of the world but does not know what his or hers next door neighbour looks like ? You might call me one of those yeah. Well, both of us really. Our cellphone hardly rings with…
Every good rhythm needs a good break. Every race car needs the occasional pit stop. Every server needs a reboot. Every cyber-Citizen needs the occasional vacation. And thats exactly what I"ve been doing. I could say I would have been overly busy, swamped with real life or even write up a convincing post about an…
Hmm .. Thursday morning. Quick cappuccino before we are off for a day to Antwerp. As Nyana is getting ready to present her lovely sellf to the people of planet earth, I softly send tapping sounds along the silent kitchen, tapping away on my Ibook. Many of you who may read this might be in…
There are things you dream of, Things you aspire to own one day. Things that linger behind shop Windows and call out your name when you walk by. Most of these things we pass up on. We look at the price and gently remind ourselves that there are bills to be payed and there is…
Its almost ten o’clock on this lovely summer evening. I sit outside, in the comfortable deckchair that overlooks our garden. The dramatic, almost pathetic screams of one of our neighbors peacocks echoes eerily through the silence of the city. A pale pink moon turns its face towards the setting sun over our ever rotating planet.…
There is a point in time where things change, where a balance tips, ever so slightly, from one side to the other. Where a moment in time, even so briefly as a day ago .. seems like an eternity. Where tomorrow becomes today and yesterday becomes a long time ago. Today I feel, is such…
I take a look at my computer screen and brush my gaze through the myriad of icons on the desktop. Each one representing a file i’m working on, a piece of music I like to listen to, or a picture I made with my digital camera or downloaded somewhere from the internet. Below my menu…
Having installed hardy heron on my little EEE-pc I was very pleased to have a complete version of Ubuntu running on my little white companion. Gone are the native Xandros days where I would have to poke and pry to find a snippet of useful ( or interesting ) software in the EEE-repositories they had…
Having moved recently I find it peculiar to see how there are small but subtle differences between cities in the same region. We have moved south about 20 miles from Hasselt ( District capital of our province ) to a smaller town near the border. Where Hasselt can be described as a modern thriving city…

A running gag ever since me and Nyana have been together .. is the fact that we don’t have any decent pictures of the two of us as a couple. It got that bad that we even have offered up a bottle of champane to whoever got a cool picture of us taken.…

As if people are reading my mind, I came across this awesome post on nerdbusiness.com . Talk about an overload of screens and stuff. Meanwhile the quest for the ultimate setup still continues. Meanwhile drool over some GeekPron with the Top 96 Kickass home office Setups. Related PostsNo Related Posts
Whow .. That was another busy weekend as we prep and prod to get the whole move on the way. Can’t believe its all going so fast. Even today I am beginning to realize that this will probably be the last "Monday-evening" we’ll have in our house here. By this time next week we will…

With the move coming closer and closer, more an more cardboard boxes are stacking themselves up around me. The spacious office upstairs has been taken apart, and i have retreated to the living room, mounting my macbook pro on a dodgy cheap-ass dinner table. But I am however into full "planning" mode. The practicalities of…
a roadwarriors day at the office. Today was another perfect example of mobile computer done by the average slider. Having to go on assignment to deal with two clients i was out the door at the crack of dawn. The crow had not managed to belch its tune and I was already on the train…
