Redbox rebooting

Posted on September 7th, 2009 @ 3:09 am

Sadly, my very first post wasn’t quite nerdy awesome enough to accurately represent me, so I’m reposting something I put on my family blog, ThePriebes.com, earlier this year. Back in January, Brent Fuchs and I happened to be at a Redbox right at 1am, and found it rebooting automatically. Cool stuff, even though it didn’t have our movie.

Since I posted this originally, I’ve talked to a guy who works for Redbox, and he assures me they’re all Dell computers. Kind of makes you wonder why they didn’t go with a Linux distro like Ubuntu. Probably would have saved them thousands and thousands of dollars.

Hey, my own website!

Tim with two thumbs upThat’s right, I’ve finally created my own website. I bought the domain timjpriebe.com quite awhile back, and have been meaning to put a blog up here. This will have both personal and professional information, and will likely be of interest to every single person on the planet.

Oh, thanks to Emily Spirek for assuring me that my design looked fine. Thanks to Komodo Media, Rogie King for the Social Network Icon Pack (more info on site credit page). And thanks to myself for coding it.

You’re welcome, Tim.
