ah, the weekend approaches - weekends seem silly when recently riddled with family bouts of stomach flu...& in a not-so-distant vein... would anyone out there get annoyed if their job started following them on Twitter?... I mean "normal" type companies/entities (not social-media saavy/understanding companies) - enough of these guys have already shown their inability to cut the big brother act on their employees off-work time... I've made it a point to not be revealing of where I work online for these reasons... ... but if they're following me on Twitter, to me, there's a specific line that they have crossed. I won't ever believe a workplace deserves more trust than they show their employees - not ever.

Octopus Gets Totally Owned by 5 Month Old!
so, Jackson (my 5 month old son) has this octopus that you can put on the bath faucet so he won't bang his head during bath time.
During tonight's bath, he goes nuts kicking on the thing (with calm resolve, not freaked out, mind you), making it fall off. I pick it up & put it back on the faucet, not thinking too much about it. He then proceeds to kick on it again, knocking it off. This time, while we were staring amused, he quickly starts peeing on the newly sunken plastic octopus.Really, it can't have anything to do with him watching the UFC fight this weekend, right? ;pwoohoo! fixed video playback on my newly updated Linux Mint DE!
after several recent updates to my Linux Mint DE system, videos weren't playing... even in swiss-army-knife-player VLC...
"No suitable decoder module:VLC does not support the audio or video format "mp4v". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this."after googling it, I found this Ubuntu Forums thread pointing towards a "libavcodec52" file which may need to be installed. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=c24cadc3d9800ddde2dcea47a3520e6c&t=1306803&page=2 Although it was an old forum post, I checked in Synaptic, & it did indeed have an upgrade available for that file - done & done... problem solved.
