Google unsupported browser error Fixed!

Submitted by rhelwig on

For several weeks now I've been getting error messages on all the Google sites I use. They all seem to have some problem with my browser being "unsupported". I know this is bullshit, because 1) they say my browser is supported in their documentation, and 2) it worked before - same browser.

One laptop to rule them all?

Submitted by rhelwig on

Today I got my new OLPC "green" laptop. I'm using it to write this blog entry, even.

So far it seems pretty cool, but it does have a few drawbacks. The keyboard, while spill-proof, is a bit small. Also, since it is totally open and free software, it doesn't have Flash. I think it can be installed - I'll have to figure that out later.

The browser has all the basic functionality you need, but I think I'll try installing Opera (which is already available for this special system) because it has all the "bells and whistles" I've gotten used to.

Liberty Dollars

I have been a Liberty Dollar associate since 1999.

I am the webmaster of the NH Liberty Dollar website, and am working with other local Liberty Dollar supporters to help grow the Liberty Dollar economy here in New Hampshire.

If you would like to get some Liberty Dollars, or just would like to discuss them in person, I am almost always at the Taproom Tuesday events at Murphy's Taproom in Manchester on Tuesday evenings.

Firewood Available

I have a lot of dead trees on my property, and some live ones that need to come down. I have the equipment to process them into firewood, and the space to hold it while seasoning.

I have one client who ordered wood for this year and next, paying for it all now.

Working Online

Recently my laptop's hard drives failed. They had been set up as mirrored (both having the same data in case one fails) and I was able to limp along for a week while new hard drives were on their way. Thankfully I had been moving more and more stuff onto the web. When the laptop finally croaked, I did lose all the data on the hard drives, but it wasn't much of a loss.

So others can benefit from my example, I'm putting together this page that explains how I'm "Living on the web".

The hard drives on the laptop finally failed, but luckily I had already ordered replacements and copied all my valuable data.

I tried out a Linux variant, but apparently the drivers for my RAID controller are insufficient. Thus I had to re-install MS Windows. If I could have gotten it working with Linux, I would have also had to install something called cedega - that supposedly would allow it to run the Windows version of Civilization 4.

I do have Civilization 4 installed and operational, which is key. It didn't work until I applied the 1.61 patch.
