While I'm mentioning changes, I stopped using Evil Spying Charter Communicatons yesterday and switched over to BTES fiber.

I'm using my thecus as an internet gateway since it has two ethernet ports. This is the first time since college that my internet connection has been a simple ethernet jack with no "modem". Quite nice. :-)

Trying to resist the urge to put a packet analizer on the house's other ethernet uplink jack, which is used for the new power meter they installed.
