Our AVG subscription was expiring and I was having 2nd thoughts about renewing – it was periodically crashing Bette’s underpowered computer. Ralph at work recommended Kaspersky Internet Security, and I got a trial of that and ESET Nod32 Security to try out. Both were well reviewed. ESET has a more techie interface, and a [...]

So I am trying to archive the check scans. TIF files named “donation-2010-DEP01-01.TIF” to identify the year, deposit batch number (01) and the scan number within the batch. I first just entered the keywords using Thumbs Plus 7. Pain. TP8 is not much better – cannot keep the image open while I add the keywords. [...] I need to do some testing, so let’s try installing Windows XP Pro into a Virtual Box VM to avoid trashing my production system. Which is pretty trashed anyway, and has a big frosty pre-ordered (cheap) Windows 7 waiting when I finally get around to researching a driver for my now non-supported HP LaserJet 3150 [...] SO I have } The Mockito doc “Real Partial Mocks” says to do this: when(mock.someMethod()).thenCallRealMethod(); we get the error “The method when(T) in the type Mockito is not applicable for the arguments (void)” After 1/2 hour of hunting I found a hint, and refactored: Mockito.doCallRealMethod().when(s1).assertEquals(s2); Or, Use SQL Squirrel and JDBC to dedupe MusikCube playlists I use MusikCube a lot.

Since MusikCube runs on SQLite, why not do it [...] I was working on the trideltamc.org wordpress installation and tested uploading pictures. Error 500. Huh. A little googling. Found this article on Error 500 Wordpress 1&1 Web Hosting. I already had a .htaccess file, but added the two lines – the first time I forgot the space and it blew up everything. Thanks dude! I found some photos of a rock climbing group from work. They were named “Cora At Top.JPG”, which is great to look at the once, but they don’t really fit into the archival scheme. Plus I didn’t want to have to reenter the caption, since it was encoded into the filename already. I reached into the [...] I use KeePass to track hundreds of passwords, securely. I also use Replicator to synchronize the files between my USB flash drive, home and work PCs. Sometimes it gets confused, mostly when I make changes at both ends. Replicator realizes this and stops. It creates a copy of the file, renames it password~1.kdb and replicates [...] Karin from work and I attended a one-day course, Presenting Data and Information, by Edward Tufte at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. I had read some of his stuff a year or two earlier, tried to go to the Chicago course, and our crack clerical staff missed the deadline and it was full. So here we go! [...] So when I try to use the latest Gallery Remote 1.5 I get an error message: Error: http post failed (http 404 not found) Using Wireshark to sniff the request from GR: POST /gallery_remote2.php HTTP/1.1 cmd=login&protocol_version=2.3&uname=XXX&password=XX The response: So it seems to be looking for a file [...] |
