I love a good Jason Derulo diddy.

Going Simple
As awesome as my last theme was, it was kind of sucking in the performance department. Trying something new.

TSA Drama (Except Not)
While I’ve seen a lot of posts about it, I wasn’t really following all the TSA drama about the full-body scanners and pat downs that’s been all over the news for the past week or so. Last night while I was packing up for my flight this morning, I decided to do a little research and I was prepared for the worst.
When I got to the airport today, I had no issues. None. Same...

A Mac Boot Up And Shut Down Speed Fix →
parislemon:
A couple weeks ago I noticed something really odd. My brand new MacBook Air went from starting up in about 10-15 seconds to well over a minute. Shutting the device down went from something like 3 seconds to about 30 seconds. Something was up.
I had actually noticed this on a few other Macs I’ve…
After initially casting this off as something that wouldn’t be useful to...
Pet Peeve #390
esquareda:
When someone asks for my opinion on something and then, once given, argues its validity.
I think this "Friendship" shit on Facebook
colormelauren:
is trying to discourage people from wall-to-wall-ing. Mark Zuckerberg wants people to “comment,” but I still believe in the wall-to-wall. And I will continue to have my convos as such. Such is the way of Facebook. I will not succumb to change!

Getting Arrested
Unnamed member: So, I was wondering. If the ambulance picks up someone that works here, does that person get fired?
Me: No, we're not going to fire you just because you need an ambulance.
Unnamed member: Oh, okay. My 21st birthday is coming up so I wanted to double check.
An Open Letter to the Girl Next to Me at the... →
Dear Girl, First of all, let me say that I’m really glad to see you out here supporting our football team in their quest to become bowl-eligible for the first time since 2004. It’s pretty sad that a huge chunk of our student section is still empty, especially when we’re 6-3. That being said, please just…remain silent. Please.
Return AirPrint sharing to Mac OS X v10.6.5 →
Today, Apple released Mac OS X v10.6.5 which was supposed to bring AirPrint to any printer connected to your Mac. Only problem is, a last minute issue (due to patent trolling?) has caused them to pull support for AirPrint in OS X.
Don’t panic! You can return it, but you’re going to have to pull some files from a prerelease version of 10.6.5.

Netflix
I caved.
My roommate and I were bored the other night and decided it would be a good idea to purchase the HBO/HBO on Demand package from Time Warner Cable (which is quickly becoming one of my least favorite companies - but that’s an entirely different story). Anyway, the package is about ten dollars a month and we decided we would split it.
After a day or two of waiting, we finally got...

Barack Obama is president of the United States, but Dustin Davis is Foursquare mayor of the Oval Office. Mr. Davis, 30, is also mayor of the Pentagon, where he works as an information technology specialist, and of the John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame at Arlington National Cemetery, which he frequently walks past en route to work.

Break
As much as I’ve settled into the norm of just being in Syracuse, I really think I’m ready to go home for a bit. When I was a freshman, I went home at least two times before Thanksgiving break. As a sophomore, I probably went home once besides the normal breaks.
This year, I came to Syracuse a month early and have no time or plans to go home until Thanksgiving. While I don’t...

New Theme
I figured it was about time. Playing around with a new theme on Tumblr. So far, I really like it! Still have some more tweaking and further customization to do but I like it a lot.
