It’s Saturday

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yes it is Saturday, and it’s springtime so I haven’t had any tech related news to blog about since I left work at noon yesterday. I still don’t, but I’m looking for suggestions. I’m thinking of taking this page and expanding it into a whole new section of the site, where each section of the page becomes it’s own page, and adding a “beginning Linux” page. Something like I did a while back with this page about setting up a website. Obviously, there aren’t enough sites listed on the page to make it into a new section, but I’ve got a short list of new ones that need to be added, and thought to myself “Duh, why not use the expertise of my audience and find sites that maybe I don’t even know about!”

So let’s see what you’ve got, give me your favorite destinations for “tech support” knowledge, be it general tech, Windows specific, Mac, Linux, etc.

    So, if there’s science behind the idea that angry/negative people can be bad for your brain, does working on a helpdesk constitute a mental health risk? 😉 I’m kidding, but there is something rather serious to think about. If you can’t learn to not take things personally and let things roll off your back so…

    Only in this case it wasn’t a pet peeve before, because I never considered that someone would do this. Someone actually forwarded me a spam they got with the message “This doesn’t apply to me, I must have gotten it by mistake.” What, exactly, do they expect me to do about that? Follow these topics:…

    Given the date, and also considering my promise to not make myself part of the remembrances, I still feel the need to say something. No, not about Sept. 11, or anything like that, because those thoughts are private, and personal. But to take a moment, as we all should this day, to appreciate all the…
