Nexus 7
Two years after my last attempt at getting an Android tablet (the Eken M001, see here and here), I got a new tablet, the Nexus 7. In short, the Nexus 7 is everything I wanted then. Of course expectations have risen over the last two years, but the Nexus 7 generally rose the occasion there…

Zoup (but not salad)
A resturant chain called Zoup is about to open at Park City (local mall). Deb and I got invited for a pre-opening meal. In case the following sounds like an endorsement, I will comment that they did bribe us with free food. Zoup is a soup, sandwich, and salad place. Deb and I got a…

Video Game High-School, Episode 9 (spoiler alert)

Frequency
Last year I wrote 26 posts. That is only half the number I’d hoped for (52), especially since some where just one or two lines, but it isn’t as bad as I thought I was doing. I think part of what makes me feel that I neglect this so much is that some are multiple…

How I like to build for Windows
I’ve seen a growing number of free software Windows programs where the recommended (or only) build procedure is to cross-build from Linux. I really like this idea. The latest I noticed that did this is the Clementine music player (which I’m rather excited about). This is a fork of amaroK, with the KDE parts stripped…
