Today’s computer hatred brought to you by INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR

Posted by  on 4 March 2005, 11:37 am

Generally, I really love working with computers. I can’t imagine what else I’d do as a profession if I wasn’t doing what I do. However, there are some bugs on some days that just piss me off so much I need a place to vent. Good thing I have a blog.

Anyway, it looks like if you’re trying to compile things on Windows XP SP2 using Visual C++ with pre-compiled headers turned on and your code is hosted on a network drive hosted by samba, you’ll cause:

fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
(compiler file ‘f:\vs70builds\3077\vc\Compiler\Utc\src\P2\p2symtab.c’, line 1609)

http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-January/099421.html

This is probably one of those bugs that is half samba’s fault and half VC++’s fault. That being said, I also found a report that looked similar, but with win2k and offline files.

Real Men of Genius

Posted by  on 1 March 2005, 9:46 pm

I really like the concept of the Bud Light ad campaign of Real Men of Genius. Not enough that I’ll buy that craptacular beer, but enough that I will blatantly steal it.

Today’s Real Man of Genius is the guy who figured out how to make frozen microwavable White Castle sliders (with cheese) and sell that at my local grocer. Its a great dinner when its just me and Dinah at home and she only allows me enough time to nuke something.

Jay Marvin’s new home

Posted by  on 1 March 2005, 3:35 pm

As mentioned previously, Jay Marvin has left Chicago after WLS asked him to leave. He’s now doing the 6am-10am (Mountain time) shift at AM 760 Boulder’s Progressive Talk.

For those of us in the Chicago area who still want to listen to Jay, we can hear him from 7am-11am (the central time equivalent) via the audio stream at mms://ccdig.liquidviewer.com/KKZN.

For those of you using not-windows (Linux in my case) I’ve found both xine and mplayer work perfectly with this stream. I’ve been using mplayer if only because I’m not forced to have a visualization.

Bud’s Images

Posted by  on 1 March 2005, 10:09 am

I finally stopped on my way home and took some quick pictures of Bud’s with my phone. The second one makes me nervous, even though I’m pretty sure its standard operating procedure. (Click on the images for a bigger view.)

FYI, I’m experimenting in this post with using the WPGallery plug-in.
