KV5R’s Articles

Practical solutions…

On Christian Themes

Chrisitanity is widely despised today, possibly because it has largely devolved into religious entertainment, social function without power, tradition without benefit, and rules without mercy. Sometimes strong and loving words of rebuke are in order. In these articles I will seek to reestablish biblical doctrines that are being neglected.

On Web Design and Development

With iconoclastic zeal, we’ll toss out both tradition and fads and explore the practical. Beware! No false assumption is safe in this section. “Out with web-safe! Down with xhtml! Give me fluid layouts or give me death! Help stop DIV and LI abuse!” quoth the curmudgeon…

On Windows Stuff

Windows is a mess! The best way to keep it running is to maintain it properly. Update it, clean it up, defrag it, fix it, network it, and back it up. In one article, see how to remove about 2 gigs of unnecessary fluff from Windows. In another, how to set up a LAN and share your broadband around the house. Yet another one fixes that annoying blinking tooltip problem.

On Linux Stuff

Linux is ready for the desktop, and Ubuntu is on the cutting-edge. Are you ready for Linux? See my Linux articles and decide. Personally, I like it—the software is great, and the community concept is appealing. Gnu/Linux isn’t just free software, it’s software freedom. Several articles about installing Linux on USB sticks!

On Ham Radio Stuff

Dozens of my popular articles on ham radio, imported from my Athens A R C site. Build handy gadgets, experiment with antenna designs, learn emergency communications, get a license, talk around the world—with Morse, voice, teletype, digital radio modes, repeaters, satellites and more. It’s a great hobby, with something for everyone. Ham is to radio what Gnu/Linux is to software.
