My campaign to produce Shakespeare's Sonnets: A Graphic Novel Adaptation needs your help! Please sign up at https://www.patreon.com/fisherking for access to exclusive content and the opportunity to be a part of the magic!

I'm also producing a podcast discussing the sonnets, available on
industrial curiosity, itunes, spotify, stitcher, tunein and youtube!
For those who prefer reading to listening, the first 25 sonnets have been compiled into a book that is available now on Amazon and the Google Play store.

resolution!



belarc advisor - you complete me! two seconds is all it took; for that it was worth putting up with the jibes in irc:

[current topic: why do all the real wierd questions come from the 3rd world?]
<totalwaste> does anyone know of a tool that i can use to identify my motherboard model and / or sound card when windows fails utterly to do so (onboard audio)? this is a question from the semi-first world :P
<stranger> semi-first world?
<helpful person> Canada.
<helpful person> You can try belarc advisor.
<totalwaste> belarc advisor? what / where?
<helpful person> You may now remove the word "geek" from your nick.
<totalwaste> lol
<totalwaste> *hangs head in shame*
<totalwaste> doesn't it count that i'm a software engineer who doesn't do hardware problems?
<another helpful person> google for belarc
<totalwaste> alright - thanks guys :)
<helpful person> Not in any kind of way. Your first reaction should have been to google not ask what/where.
<another helpful person> I don't think that's gonna work tho
<another helpful person> cause I think Belarc's gonna tell you the same stuff Windows can tell you
<totalwaste> sorry, but "the googles" have been unhelpful in terms of "driver detection"

not they're wrong about not googling, but whatever :P

yay!
