Targeted ads is abusive by design. A website, app, or service can advertise just fine by knowing themselves and their customer base. Otherwise, ads can be “targeted” to the content of the page.

While tracking people like animals certainly does improve targeting, it’s a violation of privacy, unnecessary for the customer, and creates opportunities for abuse.

Disable tracking IDs on any system you use, Windows, Android, etc.

How I made almost $40,000 selling my card collection on Ebay

Bottom line, I found out my card collection was worth a LOT which made me nervous. I couldn't afford to insure them properly and I didn't want the risk of them getting stolen, damaged, etc. So I sold them and made enough money to buy my wife the truck she'd always dreamed of!

Obviously, my process might not work for you the same way, but I'm sharing my .... [Click here to read the rest of this post]

Screaming Goats in City of Heroes? Yup!


One of the more useful things you can do in the game is modify the sounds. Make the objective noise louder (and easier to find), quiet the ones that are weirdly too loud, or silence the ones that annoy you endlessly. Or, if you want to have fun, replace the sounds with anything you want! Goats, Cats, Laser beams… whatever!

City of Heroes – Making a generic Vulcan hero with Phaser rifle

I made a video explaining how to make a Star Trek Original Series Vulcan with Phaser rifle in City of Heroes. It’s fun to run around and blast things in character while saying on-theme things like “illogical” and “beam me up” 🙂

Ohmu-Rice – The best Ghibli/Japanese Food Mashup

Ohmu-Rice! Two great things, mashed together!

I'd been thinking about this pun for a while – mixing the giant Ohmu from Nausicaä with Omu-rice (egg and rice omelets from Japan). I set to work designing it and think it turned out really well!

Check it out on Teepublic.com! The default link goes to the tan color, but I like the soft-green best.

Windows Group-By Menace SOLVED AT LAST!

If I wanted it sorted by date, I would have DONE so!

Today, I had the misfortune of copying files from another computer on my network only to discover that they, and all folders below them, had been tainted with the Windows "group by" feature for some reason. I tried changing the view recursively, but that only changes between thumbnail or list view and doesn't affect Group .... [Click here to read the rest of this post]

General Safety

Avoid fake and nasty websites with my search engine trick.
Watch out for online addiction. Getting lost in fun online activities can be just as addiction as any drug.
So you want to write, publish, or share information online? Be careful. Things you say may be lost or forgotten, but things put on the Internet never are.
Don't fall for the well-known (or the new scams either) bad guys use to trick you into give away data or money.

Account Protection

Want to make an account with some online service? Read this first!
The newest, biggest risk online? Account hijacking! Don't become a victim by allowing your account to be taken over and learn to recognize when someone else has been.
Be sure transmission security is active before entering a name, password, credit card number, or other important information online.
