I have fond memories of HyperCard from school growing up. Our school computers had a locked down shell to restrict us to certain applications. However, it was trivial to write a script in HyperCard to close the shell application, exposing t

From the page, it appears what they'll be offering is basically a VPN tunnel with a routable IPv6 address. Also, it appears that they'll give you some additional control—custom firewall rules, private subnets, etc. I can see many

Depends on the task and my mood. Classical and prog-rock are the most common for me. Lately, I've found myself not having any music most of the time—I'm better able to concentrate without it. I think that's partially because

Gentoo was the first distro that I used full-time on the desktop. It was my distro of choice through most of college, running on my trusty (albeit excruciatingly slow) Fujitsu P-2046 laptop. This laptop (really one of the first netbooks) ha
