So I visited Vanderbilt University today(where I’ll be attending college.) It was quite an awesome school - the campus is beautiful, and the people are generally quite kind. However, I’m clearly going to need to adjust to a different kind of culture when I get there. 5/6 of the other kids on the tour had [...]

As someone in the computer industry, I meet an incredible number of people with, shall we say, not incredible social lives. They tend to spend much of their time inside, playing WoW or Halo or some such, not really interacting with the outside world. Now, I’ve played WoW, and I love Halo - but obviously [...]

So, I’ve been trying to get into shape prior to going to college. I’ve been hitting the gym 6(well, 3) days a week, and running a few miles as many days a week as possible. However, I understand that most people don’t work from home and might not be able to do that - so [...]

PennyWise PCs sells entirely desktop computers. This is because we build every computer on site. The unfortunate thing about building a laptop, is that its absurdly difficult. Not simply because its smaller parts - but because you get things like the monitor being welded into the motherboard, and the processor soldered to the socket. In [...]

Well, I’m 17, so I don’t really have any dependents. In fact, I’m apparently a dependent myself, so I didn’t get a refund check or stimulus payment from the feds. *ssholes. But if you are/do have any dependents, you might want to look into getting a life insurance policy. That way, if you die, your [...]

I’ve always thought of myself as a cat person. My family’s always had cats, and I got my first one when I was 7. Named it Bilbo Baggins - yeah, foreshadowing my future nerdiness, I know. Anyway, about a year ago, we adopted a dog. And Andy has been the joy of my life ever [...]

So I’ve been thinking about getting a home theater system lately. As an avid movie fan and someone who’s very conscientious about price, I did some math and found that it would be much cheaper for me to make one, and I’ve thought out everything and even plan to invest in a home theater [...]
