If you’re like me, you have lots of passwords. More than you can keep in your head. So, you use an app like KeePassX to hold and secure them all. I keep all of my passwords securely stored in Dropbox so they are accessible via my computers and my BlackBerry device (via the FileScout Dropbox [...] Related posts:

SOLVED: Permanently setting “Hide Join/Part Messages” off in XChat

I’ve been using XChat since early year 2000 (loooong time BitchX user before that), and have found it somewhat annoying to have to manually and interactively disable the “Join/Part” messages in each IRC channel I am lurking on. To do that, you normally have to right-click each channel’s tab, go to Settings → Hide Join/Part [...] Related posts:

At 1:38pm today, I lost my best friend, my buddy, Dart…

He’s not really lost, he’s still alive and well, preserved in my memories, thousands of photos and the remaining energy he left around my home. He’ll live on immortal as long as I don’t let those memories fade. Dart lived a happy, bountiful life with his bigger brother “Monk” taking care of him every day. [...] Related posts:
