Miscellaneous Features

Welcome to Eugene:
Home of the friendly bicycling tree huggers!




Uh oh, you found my outdated page. You would think after having my own site for what, at least 7 years now that I would know something about making a website. Ha! My specialty is still the hardware side of it all.

I think I will try to get in here and add more content. Once in a while I like to write and I can write to some length. Not book length mind you, just article length. Check out my latest (as of May 2012) on Apple.

Why EvilTechMonkey? Well, because it was hard to come up with something original
and at least here I can say how I really feel about Micro$oft <insert evil laugh here>.

More than 90% of what you find here has been done in Linux with programs like VIM, the Mozilla Composer and NVU. The only exception is the "Concert" link and the original page layout. Though I am sure the page layout was probably done from scratch. I am gradually reworking that as I learn more.

The following links are random things I've done. You'll find power supply modifications, watercooling, and other generally geeky stuff including other pictures of my computers and perhaps even things unexpected.

"Heavy Objects" details a little trick I learned from a fellow geek. It involves wiring a water pump directly to the power supply switch of a PC so that when the switch is flipped the pump is running before the computer is even on. Of course you can do the same trick on a non-switching power supply but it would involve having the pump running as soon as you insert the power cord.

Caution, more highly antiquated crap! "Oh, the memories" will bring you a short review done on my 256MB Ultra II Compact Flash card from Sandisk. All I can say is it's fast! I would recommend the Ultra series or any other "high speed" series flash cards to camera owners.

"Sandwichwiki" gets you to another of my longer rants. This time about the annual festivities that come at the end of the year.

"My Machines" can only be described as complete geek. Really, how many other  people like taking pictures of their computers? Updated as of August 2005. Holy crap that's old! I will eventually rework it! I think I will leave the original page for the history and humor and create a new machines page.

"Ride Hard!" is another one of my toys. An indoor bike trainer that interfaces with the computer for quite the workout. Check it out if you're a cyclist. I look forward to using it for at least the next few winters. And so it is, I barely use it. Not because I don't want to, trust me I do. Having a wife, child, house, and a million projects reduces my time with my toys. I really really want to get back to cycling a lot!

The other links point you to a few sites I'd recommend. Userfriendly.org is simply one of the best geek comics available. Of course that was before 2006. Now it's all about XKCD!
DangerDen is an Oregon based company specializing in watercooling products for computers. Air1 is an awesome Christian radio station that is available all over the U.S. and around the world via their site.

Enjoy the content.

Obviously not everything works just yet. This page is very much a work in progress!! Click around, explore, and don't tell your parents. More will come along soon.

Ha, I used to own a Mac Mini and I was even excited about it. Man, that thing was boring. Except for maybe that marble game it had but really, that was it!
Oh look, Ads!

I am Apple Dos. Simple and primitive with a good understanding of the common man. You're still a work in progress, but a good start.
