More New Hardware

Is it that time already?

After playing through most of Crysis (more or less) at High settings, I finally hit a brick wall with the last level where the machine simply wasn’t up to the task of doing the boss fight. So, here it is, new hardware on top of the old shitty stuff. This ought to carry my computer along for another few years until I’m ready to go 64-bit multi-core.

This summer I took a course called “Advanced Pastries I” which covered all sorts of desserts from low-fat European cakes (not that they’re really really low in fat, just that the cake component does not rely on fats) to bavarians, charlottes, truffles, molded candies, and various confectionary involving caramel and/or marshmallow.

The products we turned out are generally fairly high-class classic desserts, and a lot of them took quite a bit of work to do, and we generally started from scratch during daily production. The only shortcuts we used were using pre-made tartlet shells and truffle molds.

I’ve uploaded some pictures of the stuff we made in class here and here. I’ve probably mislabeled some of the pictures in the first link, since those were done hurriedly before the course midterms. A small sample of the total:

Windows Live Writer Beta 2

Apparently back in June a new beta for Windows Live Writer was released that added the functionality to add/edit a WordPress blogs’ user-written static pages. So that’s good.

Windows Live Writer Beta

I’m writing this post using the Windows Live Writer beta and it seems to work pretty well. You have to enable the XML-RPC functionality for Wordpress to be able to use the software on it (basically chmod +x the xmlrpc.php file) but after that it works like a charm.

The only problem so far really is that Wordpress doesn’t let you edit any of your static “page” content through xmlrpc.php but maybe eventually they’ll do that.
