Update 2014-07-19: I found the solution. My original fix wasn’t even doing anything it was just using the 4x AA I set in Race 07’s Video and Language Options application. The real fix for me was upgrading drivers and then things started to work. Before upgrading my drivers NVIDIA Control Panel changes to AA didn’t…

In this smile, this beautiful creation, joy bursts forth from the form of her comely curves. From lush strokes of warm pink she speaks harmony into the world. Her song fills this place.
htpasswd limits passwords to 8 characters (or: read the manual dummy)
Turns out htpasswd limits passwords to 8 characters in length by default prior to Apache HTTPd v2.2.18. I run CentOS 5 with HTTPd v2.2.3. I don’t rely on .htaccess password access for anything serious but I do use it as an https ‘front door’ for one of my addresses which does have its own properly…
Sim Racing – 2014 Thrustmaster FSR World Championship
I’m really fascinated by this FSR World Championship sim racing series I just found. It’s a complete world series, complete with professional drivers and sponsorship, including call-by-call qualifying and racing. It caught be by surprise that we already have a fully virtualized, top-tier, professional sporting event that is a copy of a real word sporting…

Far Cry 3 Benchmarks and the Sweet Spot for SLI Price Points
Far Cry 3 is a great game and I play it quite a bit even after having already finished it twice. It’s a great open world to explore. I decided, recently, to upgrade my NVIDIA GTX 460 SLI setup and went about researching new video cards. A little background, when I was buying the 460s…
How to Install Amarok 1.4 on CentOS 5
Update 2014-11-11: I have fixed the instructions as I discovered the old instructions no longer work smoothly. This worked for me earlier today when I needed a fresh Amarok install. How to Install Amarok 1.4 on CentOS 5 I love CentOS 5 particularly because of KDE 3.5, which I just can’t seem to get on…
The Fourth Year
The fourth year is a dead, dry sea of shifting sands. Each week is a new staggering climb to crest a new mountain of sand, to be greeted again by another vicious valley and one more dead, dry sea of shifting sands.
