Jordan Hofker

I'm a .NET and X++ Developer, and sometimes I take pictures.
Puppy on my lap? Check. Ice cream in a bowl served by my wife? Check. Good movie on TV? Check. Friendfeed loaded on my laptop? Check. I'm living the dream, folks. Living. the. dream. ;-)
Suppose I should keep commenting to keep you interested. - Clark Baumgartner via iPhone
lol, you didn't head out to Holmes Lake or anything to watch pretty explosives? - Jordan Hofker
I was in Norfolk for a bit, caught a ride home, one of my roommate's had to do something. I uh, don't have a car, so I'm kinda stuck here. Anyways, I was told they canceled the show because it rained yesterday and they canceled it today because Larry the Cable Guy was here. - Clark Baumgartner via iPhone
Larry the Cable Guy > Cool explosives at the lake? That's a bunch of crap! I'll be selling my car at some point probably in the next year if that helps. :-) - Jordan Hofker
Probably not. Unless you wanna cut me a deal. I should try to get another job or something -- I'm limited to how many hours I can work at UNL. - Clark Baumgartner via iPhone
This car would not be that one I was trying to sell before. :-) I drive an '87 Buick. I'll let you know when I'm selling it I guess? - Jordan Hofker
Yikes that's old. I had an 89 Cadillac before I started college. I loved that thing. If you've got a good price. I'm sure I'll be interested if I don't already have a car by then. - Clark Baumgartner via iPhone
Hi, I was getting drunk with two other married couples instead of commenting. Sorry. - Derrick Stolee
The Imogen Heap song and fireworks in Boston were pretty nice looking.
Hmmm, I love Imogen Heap. I saw her live and saved her from a spider crawling on her powerbook. - Clark Baumgartner
Hahaha, awesome. Did she record herself saying "thank you" and play it back while saying "thank you" at the same time? - Jordan Hofker
No, she screamed and ran away..., :( However, she did do "Just for now" like that. It was -amazing- live..., nothing like the album version. - Clark Baumgartner
Yeah, watching those videos of her live performances blow my mind. - Jordan Hofker
Is half the challenge of Crysis to get to the next checkpoint before the game crashes or what?
My buddy from home has a super powered gaming rig. I'd cheat, make myself invincible and give myself infinite mana and would use the speed rush to powerboost my way through the whole game. It was so pretty, so fast. The narration couldn't keep up. - Clark Baumgartner via iPhone
Haha, that's not a bad idea. My box is running it at 1080p and High settings and doesn't lag out. The ATI driver seems to crash every 20 or 30 minutes though. ATI drivers crashing are no surprise, I guess. :-( - Jordan Hofker
I never had issues with Crysis crashing.... but that's the challenge to Fallout 3 for me :( - Ryan Versaw
Also, crashing only every 20-30 minutes is much better than every 2-3! - Ryan Versaw
I don't know...20-30 is like teasing you. You sit down, all ready to play the game for extended period, you get really into it, you're JUST ABOUT TO KILL THAT GUY AROUND THE CORNERRRR YEA----aw crap, the game crashed. 2-3 minutes for crashing would make me just not play it. :-) - Jordan Hofker
For instance, I'm about to start the game again just so it can crash and disappoint me! - Jordan Hofker
It crashed, just like I expected. I did manage to kill both the tanks, though. Took forever to find where they kept more rocket launchers. - Jordan Hofker
Anyone watching Boston's fireworks? Why isn't CBS broadcasting in HD? (Or am I just crazy?)
Happy Fourth, everyone. Don't blow a finger off!
Oh...hi there.
Wait, you brought a what where? Why?
Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi

OMG - cuteness overload. - jlt-Janet
http://cuteoverload.com <-- that's a cuteness overload fer yeh.... - Clark Baumgartner
That is one cute puppy. I want one! - Seth Swanson
There is a puppy asleep on my lap. Kirby is less than pleased, as that is usually his spot, even if for just 5 seconds.
Cute comes in small packages I guess. http://www.flickr.com/photos...
@natehenderson Congrats! Moving is easier when it's just across town, eh? :-) I have a feeling I know what your pic will be for Saturday.
Quick question: King Charles Spaniel - good dog? What's a fair price if they're from a breeder? :-)
Anyone? - Jordan Hofker via fftogo
Zee? We probably need to decide shortly. :-) - Jordan Hofker via fftogo
The extremely social nature of the Cavalier KC Spaniel means that they require almost constant companionship from humans or other dogs, and are not suited to spending long periods of time on their own. (Even though they will be very patient and obedient) This breed is one of the friendliest of the toy group. It is important for Cavaliers to have a hand-reared puppyhood to ensure... more... - Clark Baumgartner
Prices for a puppy I found were anywhere between $450 and $900 - Clark Baumgartner
Thanks Clark. :-) - Jordan Hofker via fftogo
Make sure you get one from a breeder this guide says. Apparently they suffer from absolutely fatal genetic conditions that a breeder would weed out or not sell. It's not a big deal, I just used my GoogleFu. - Clark Baumgartner
Fallout 3 is $25 on Steam this weekend.
If I didn't already have a few copies this would be great! - Ryan Versaw
@stolee Does it have a web browser yet?
TweetCraft is probably just what you didn't need: http://tweetcraft.codeplex.com/ (Yes, it's exactly what you think it is)
I'm not sure if I find that awesome, horrifying, or convergent. - Sparky, king of carbs
"Yes" - Jordan Hofker
@tysonj Find one friend, add all their friends, repeat. (There doesn't seem to be a search feature) #gdgt
@tysonj Really only care about the last one there. :-)
@natehenderson I'm filtering out all the tweets containing a hashtag that starts with #m. Of course, then people like @kielo cheat. ;-)
Main thing being filtered from tweets today: #m
Lack of access to an Arabic keyboard or lack of familiarity with one are two of the most common problems preventing Arabic users from communicating in their own language. Microsoft Maren is a Windows extension that comes to the rescue, allowing you to type Arabic in Roman characters (Romanized Arabic, Arabizi, Arabish or Franco-Arabic) and have it converted on the fly to Arabic script. Maren integrates seamlessly with Windows and works in most Windows applications and websites. - Jordan Hofker via Bookmarklet
Hardly helps me, but it's still pretty cool! I'm sure there's some folks on FriendFeed that would like it. - Jordan Hofker
News on #gdgt so far: Walkman (?), iPhone, USB, iPhone, Apple, iPhone, Sharp, Apple, iPhone, Apple. I think there's a trend here...
@natehenderson I wish there were a way to only share that knowledge with friends on there. #gdgt
@natehenderson Yeah, I haven't decided how I feel about that yet. I've added the things that it's pretty easy to figure out I own. #gdgt
@tysonj Did gdgt finally launch or something? About time!
yeah, but the website went down instantly. - Clark Baumgartner
Which is something you'd think they'd prepare for, really. It's a short week, so for everyone that would usually check a site like that, every day is Friday, so they have no reason not to check out the new-shiny asap. I know I did! - Jordan Hofker
@tysonj @natehenderson It worked long enough for me to sign up for an account. #gdgt
Amen, same here, but I got "clark" as my username. - Clark Baumgartner
@PHARA0H Nah, that's easy*. (*If the diagonal of the peg is shorter than the diameter of the circle!)
