I have no problem identifying with being a geekette (as is obvious with my domain name). However, I do have a problem with one of the more recent geekette shirts to hit the public (this one courtesy of Telerik): Most geekettes I know dress like a typical geek. We like our hoodies and geek tees [...]
SUX Adventures with the Dell Latitude E6520
Posted by: sarah on: September 5, 2011
While in the middle of surfing a web page in 1 tab in Google Chrome, with nothing else in the background, my favorite blue screen came back. It’s frustrating that this blue screen doesn’t stay up long enough to get details and also doesn’t log to the Event Log. But the KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE errors continue, even [...]

Posted by: sarah on: August 26, 2011
Just a few weeks before devLink, I purchased a new laptop to replace my ASUS G51JX. I ended up getting a Dell Latitude E6520. Within the first few days of getting it, the laptop had a KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE blue screen and lost sight of the hard drive. After rebooting a few times and working with Dell [...]

Gamer Background First of all, I’ve been gaming since Intellivision, when my dad introduced me to console gaming. From there, I’ve seen many console systems and played many games. Whether [...]

My last post got me thinking… Why am I using such a primitive blogging system? As much as I like to blog, I don’t like having to troubleshoot my blog software if something goes wrong. For the past few years, I’ve been using WordPress for my other blogs, and I’ve loved the stability of the [...]

As many of you know, I’ve had issues with these guys in the past. I had a credit card that got flagged with fraudulent charges a lot - the problem though was that they were flagging normal everyday spending or monthly recurring charges as fraudulent.
