		<title>lardvo 2.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently bought an HDTV (Samsung LN40A630), I thought I might be able to survive for a while with the SD lardvo, but watching 480&#215;480 MPEGs captured from analog cable and displayed over S-Video was unbearable, so time for an upgrade. Hardware: EVGA 113-YW-E115-TR Motherboard Hauppauge HVR-1250 Tuner Intel E5200 CPU 2x1GB Generic RAM The [...]]]></description>

		<title>windows gripe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In Linux I can do /etc/init.d/networking restart, and it successfully reinitializes my crummy WL-167g USB wireless adapter, without interfering with any of my open connections. (The adapter locks up frequently, although not as often as our Scientific Atlanta cable modem.) Windows, in contrast, seems to go out of its way to reset all my network [...]]]></description>

		<title>ipod in my car</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend I installed an ipod hookup cable in my car, which for the sake of google I&#8217;ll mention is a 2003 Civic EX. I used a mish-mash of the Honda instructions here and here, and the blog posts here and here. Although my car is a 2003, and I went out of my way [...]]]></description>

		<title>new hosting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m mostly moved to new hosting at Future Hosting. It&#8217;s the same price as my old VPS at JVDS, but the specs are much better. Most notably, 10 GB of storage vs. 1 GB. The comments at webhostingtalk seemed generally positive about the service, but time and experience will have to tell.]]></description>

		<title>look what I made</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently built a PC-based DVR running Linux and MythTV: I&#8217;ve never actually used a TiVo, so I can&#8217;t compare directly. Here are some selling points: It has a good system for specifying what to record and the relative priorities of different programs. The scheduler is intelligent; if an episode airs multiple times it will [...]]]></description>

		<title>they don&#8217;t make them like they used to</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My alarm clock died because I smashed the snooze button one too many times. I bought a new alarm clock at Fry&#8217;s for $15. The new one is great. It projects the wrong time on the ceiling, and the alarm goes off based on the same incorrect time. Remember, we put a man on the [...]]]></description>

		<title>mayday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I ordered 14,400 calories of &#8220;Mayday Emergency Food Rations&#8221;, and they arrived today. The box was surprisingly heavy, about 7 pounds. I ordered the 3600 calorie bars, which are divided into 9 pieces. Each piece has a full day&#8217;s worth of most nutrients. On the packaging it recommends eating 1200 calories per day. Presumably this [...]]]></description>
