🚗 Add an auxiliary jack to your car

I think I might have to do this to my car…. once I get it all up and running.

Many of us still use an old-school tape deck and cassette adaptor to hook our iPods to our cars. However, with some modding, a few bucks, and a car, you can make a permanent auxiliary jack for your car.

🏞️ WordPress 1.5.x w/Kubrick + Gallery 2

If you are like me, you want everything to go perfectly together… And now, with WordPress 1.5.x with Kubrick, you can use them with each other. This does require the Gallery 2 integration plugin to be installed.

All you have to do is install it, and then, in the plugin settings, add this text to the “Simple Header.”

<style type="text/css">
	.g2_column{
		line-height: 1.4em;
		margin: 0px 0px 0px 11px;
		width: 739px;
	}
</style>
<div id="content" class="g2_column">

After that it should blend perfectly.

🖥️ A couple of things.

I thought after all these random Life posts, I would post some tech junk. I just got dual displays working on my box @ work… Granted, the second display is next to worthless as its runs on a shitty 8meg S3 Trio card; it lets me do 1024×768 15bit. Anything higher than that will either

  1. Not display anything
  2. Locks up the computer to the point where I have to unplug the box.

All in all, it sucks and is slow as shit, but hell, it’s nice having my IM’s all on one monitor. Now, to get my FM/TV Tuner working, I might be able to make use of the second display.

I will post the XFConfig-4 file when I get back to work, just in case someone needs it for reference.
