The other day I was playing around with VirtualBox. I had downloaded an image for a router OS called pfSense. This is what we use at work and I wanted to do a little playing and experimenting to see what I could do with it. That’s all great but it really doesn’t matter. What matters… more

The Art Of The Screenshot
| October 19, 2011 | Posted by DevonSchreiner under Tech |
I’ve learned a couple of tricks in the last couple days that I can’t believe I didn’t know. I was always happy with Apple’s screencapping key combination. A quick Command+Shift+3 and you’ve got yourself a screenshot. I have never been happy with Windows’ alternatives until now. I thought I would share them and hopefully make… more
My Experience With LDAP, AD and SVN
| October 17, 2011 | Posted by DevonSchreiner under Tech |
At work I was tasked with migrating an SVN server from one failing server to another, livelier one. I’ll be honest, I didn’t know what an SVN was before I started this project. But I did a little reading and was off to a good start before long. I found out that the old server… more

I must be the best and absolute worst boyfriend in the whole world. It was Katie’s and my two year anniversary on Friday. No, I didn’t forget about it. Let me explain. I ended up going down to Vermillion for the weekend because the weekend also happened to be DDays, USD’s homecoming. Katie and I… more
Thank You Mr. Jobs
| October 7, 2011 | Posted by DevonSchreiner under Personal, Tech |
So I tried writing last night after I had heard about the passing of Mr. Steve Jobs, but I couldn’t bring myself to it. I didn’t know what to say. Honestly, I still don’t know what to say. I’m just sad and really confused. I’m not sure why I’m sad and that’s why I’m confused.… more

You Still Only Have An iPhone 4?
| October 5, 2011 | Posted by DevonSchreiner under Tech |
Pre-order October 7th and receive your new iPhone 4S on October 14th. Wow, that was quick. It seems like just yesterday the original iPhone 4 was released. But that was a whole CEO ago now. Aren’t you glad you bought a Verizon iPhone 4 in February now? Aren’t you glad that you can look at… more
One Man’s Trash
| October 3, 2011 | Posted by DevonSchreiner under Personal |
I have started to fail myself already. Just over a month ago, Katie and I decided to start blogging together. We made the deal that we would write something every single day. It’s harder than it sounds and I’ve started to fail. I’ve skipped a few days. But it’s ok, I was with Katie in… more
