  • Integer Math – Converting to Binary

    Yes, I realize this is a beginning digital logic concept, but I need somewhere to write this so I don’t forget again.

  • Finally! An internal DNS server that works (for me)!

    So it’s been much too long since I wanted to do this, but thankfully, I have finally discovered the solution for which I can serve up my own DNS server for internal LAN things, but still have an external host that administers my public website! My scenario and quandry was this:

  • OpenVPN

    New project at work! Setting up OpenVPN. It’s great fun…except when it doesn’t work. I love the Windows interface for setting up the Server. It’s straight-forward, and following the tutorial at http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html works like a charm. Setting up the client is just as easy, and the connection can be made in a matter of minutes.

  • This Annoying Christmas Theme

    Amazing. I’ve neglected this site so much in the past year that I forgot to take my Christmas theme down and now it’s time to put it back up! Awesome.

  • Ruby on Rails – Success kinda!

    Okay. I’m totally going to try this again, just to see if I can’t figure it out. Ruby on Rails – A ruby based framework for web stuff. Basically, I haven’t a clue, but I’m going to at least try to get it running on Windows and make some rudimentary website things, just to see […]

  • IFTTT

    IFTTT – What in the world!? I just discovered this this morning while once again searching for alternatives to Google Reader, since it’s dying in about 2 weeks. I tried Feed Demon at home, but it just didn’t cut it; half of the problems being that it was yet another application (and a memory hog […]

  • A Domain!!

    At last!! I tucked in my shirt, tightened my belt and made the plunge. I am now the proud pseudo-owner of ppsstudios.com! For that reason, I’ve created this Google Sites …site, and then in addition linked THIS blog to blog.ppsstudios.com (mostly because I wanted to try subdomains, to see how easy they were). All the […]

  • My New C++ Endeavors

    Awesome news! I’ve been asked at work to start doing a bit of GUI development for our NASA projects. They’ve said that all of their stuff is developed using Borland C++. Now with my PennMUSH development experience, I’ve taught myself a bit of C++ (though my PennMUSH development experience has been mostly debugging and making […]

  • Petra

    So a few weeks ago, I was doing cameras at church. Or maybe it was during the 6:33, our Tuesday men’s group. In either case, the subject was brought up in the sermon that after Jesus’ crucifiction, Peter had denied Jesus three times, and all that, he basically got really depressed, dropped his calling and […]

  • Phil Keaggy – Maker of the Universe

    So I happen to like good “cosmic” worship songs. Hymns about space and stars and stuff just kinda get to me. Last night, my dad was talking to a guy about a Phil Keaggy song that was taken from an older hymn titled “Maker of the Universe.” Overhearing the lyrics just blew me away, so […]
