the joys of having a real keyboard again

[jazzfish]

Godot is up and running again, for the most part. Still haven't finished installing all the software I need but that's going to be a continual work in progress.

Also, the nice new speaker set I got secondhand from my parents has some serious bass buzz going on when there's nothing coming over the speakers. Oh well. I can just turn them on when I feel like listening to something.

The KVM switch I got is useless because running the trackball through a PS/2 connector and then running that through a USB converter to hook it to the laptop renders it incapable of talking to the Intellipoint software. The USB hub is useless because the cable is way too short. Stupid technology.

This weekend didn't really involve much chance to recuperate, but it was all worth it. Well, except for having to get up early to get uilos's car inspected. But other than that. ABG, jonny_law's housewarming (featuring big-screen Guitar Heroism, and also cheese), and more Race for the Galaxy with elf and company. Good times.

I came home today and napped for well over an hour. I think I must have actually been tired.

Goodnight Gracie.

A possibility, but then I can't use the volume knob on the speakers themselves, which is a lot more quickly accessible than the software control.

Well, you *can* (depending on how bad the system is)... it just requires accepting that your volume control goes nowhere near 11. ;-)
