Slyck’s Guide to BitTorrent

People ask me how I download TV shows so easily. I’ve written about it before, so if you still don’t understand, maybe Slyck’s Guide to BitTorrent will help!

Quick File extension

In Asides, Open Source, Software, Thunderbird on 23 January 2006 with 2 comments

I’m using Thunderbird instead of Gmail right now. (More about this later.) For now, I just had to write this out. Quick File is an awesome extension that I wish I would’ve seen before I purged and sorted 73MB-worth of emails (with lots of attachments). I’m not seeing much documentation, so basically, press Alt+Q, type the first couple letters of the folder you want to move the email message(s) to, choose it with your arrows, then press Enter. No need to use a mouse for this one – awesome.

I’ve switched from ZipTorrent to µTorrent. Scary looking, but it seems much better. I barely changed the settings. Beauty and the Geek S02E01, come to Bryan!

Hamachi – What can you do with it?

Hamachi success at public WiFi

In Asides, Security on 9 January 2006 with no comments

I just had to document this: I’m at the Arcadia Public Library, and I’m connected to my home computer via Hamachi/Windows XP Remote Desktop perfectly. I came only to test it out, and to see how the speeds are. I basically feel like I’m at home, despite the chatter around me at the other tables. So much for a library being quiet, huh? Anyways, I’m stoked!
