A new blog...

Yeah, I know that we've been taking this blog for granted. Haven't been posting much for the past months. But hopefully, things are going to change. I've been procrastinating upgrading the blog for so long. Currently, the blog is on Yahoo servers and I'm using Movable Type. When I applied for Yahoo hosting, I was expecting that Yahoo would update Movable Type to it's most current version as it comes out as they have an automatic update option on the control panel. After 4 years, and many releases of Movable Type, Yahoo still hasn't updated my installation and would be stuck with MT 3.2 forever if I don't do something about it. Updating to the latest version of MT might also be a hassle as I've personally modified the theme and it might not be compatible to the latest MT. In other words, MT is not really my option at the moment plus if I'm to really upgrade it, I'd rather upgrade it to Wordpress since it's being developed more and is now more robust than MT. I've been tinkering with it for a while and tested it on my PC. I've done some import/export tests and though I'm going to lose some of images and links, I can live with it. So that's it, if all works out well, the blog would have a new look and feel after the holidays. And more so, I am hoping that I'd be able to post more than what I've been posting the past few months.

Adjustments

Last night, Xianelle was having a difficult time doing her hand writing homework. It turns out that her new school teaches a hand writing style different from her former school. She had a hard time making her writing slanted as she was used to it straight. We had to rub off her work several times, even had to make her write on a separate paper just so she could practise. I wonder what other things she needs to adjust to. Well whatever it is, I am confident that she will be able to adjust in no time and whatever it it we will be here to help her....

Things I've been doing the past months

I've been quite busy the past few months. Here's the list of things that I've been doing:

1. Revived my old laptop which haven't been working for the last 2 years. Got it repaired on the last day of my vacation in the Philippines. Gave it to my Mom to use at home.

2. Revived my Xbox 360 which had a GPU failure early this year, I think. Opened the case, applied some thermal paste, and "baked" it for some minutes. Result: a working Xbox 360!

3. Soft -modded the Xbox 360 DVD Drive. I can now play burned "backups" on my revived Xbox 360!

4. Cracked the WEP key of my neighbors WiFi for Backtrack Testing. Don't worry, didn't hack their PC's. Just wanted to know if Backtrack works and how easily a WEP Key can be cracked. Took me 10 minutes.

5. Jailbroken 3 iPhone 3Gs. redsn0w 0.8, Cydia, Installous... Whatever you do, don't upgrade to 3.1.1!

Next on my list would be installing Windows 7 and Divx Beta so I can play MKV files on my Xbox 360!
