GTK+

Back in October I started work on a new app for PiBox: an XM radio player. The hardware is an XMPCR, a device sold in the early 2000’s that connected over USB to a PC. The device didn’t last long. I think there was some concern that people would steal […]

I'm still a Fedora user, even after years of releases that seem to cause more headaches than they solve. I understand it's a bleeding edge distro. But at the current rate of change it's bound to bleed out by the end of the year. Systemd is a pain for me […]

Today I released a complete rewrite of XNotesPlus, which I've renamed XNotesNG. This version was properly architected (well, mostly) and implemented in Java.

I placed an order for a gray Peek from Amazon. The gray Peek’s are$2 less than the colored ones. Who needs a colored one for hacking? Anyway, it should arrive by Saturday. In the meantime I’ve been watching the videos and scanning online resources to learn about the internals of […]
