I buy a lot of stuff, and sometimes my highest hopes turn out to be the biggest disappointments. I’ve evaluated the things I’ve purchased last year, with an eye to what I use on a regular basis that Gibberish readers may use often as well. Sure, I “use” my Keltec PF-9 every day when I [...]
Earlier in the year I posted How fast can you type? I hit 98 words a minute, which seemed pretty realistic. The test took two minutes and used a combination of letters, numbers, and case (take the test here, Java required). Someone on Ars Technica inquired about typing on the Asus Eee’s keyboard.

I am going to write a more lengthy review of the Asus Eee super-small laptop after I’ve logged some more time with it. In the meantime, I wanted to post instructions on how to fix what I considered the most annoying design flaw of the unit: the position of the right shift key on the [...]
I posted about my Rock Band drum troubles earlier in the week. The good news is that EA was super quick about sending me a new drum kit: second day air at their expense. The bad news is that the new drum set still has the same problems as my old one. I guess I [...]

So, my file server was giving me problems around the end of July. The system was rebooting randomly and was exhibiting generally weird behavior, such as not burning DVDs. I hypothesized that my power supply was underpowered and was taking a shit on me. I bought a mo’ beefy one and sure enough, everything was [...]
I’m going to be honest. My Motorola E815 was working flawlessly. It was almost cosmetically perfect. It did everything I wanted it to, except it was lacking a little bit of the sexy. The camera sucked, but I wasn’t aiming to become the Ansel Adams of mobile phones. Everything was great, until Lady Jaye bought [...]
As we enter tornado season in the midwest and 2007 projected to be a big year for hurricanes on the east coast, Gibberish readers may want to investigate purchasing an emergency radio that does not require AC power or batteries to run. While we have a stockpile of batteries in the Gibberish HQ, it’s worth [...]
