Lasers in Engraving and 3D Printing

November 17th, 2014

I almost can’t apologize enough for not posting this sooner. I peruse Kickstarter often whenever I’m looking for the latest in technology. Sometimes I get lucky, but more often than not I find something after the campaign ended, with no update from the creator for years afterwords. This time, I had an idea, hoping to […]

3D Printer Update

November 20th, 2012

Way cool new news! Solidoodle has announced their Solidoodle 3 with their 8 inch^3 print space for $799! “What about Makerbot’s new Replicator 2? How does it compare?” I guess it depends on how big you need to print. Rep2’s print space is a whopping 11.2 inch x 6 inch x 6.1 inch. However, Rep2’s […]

I present to you the very first Em2a Cartoon vinyl decal: For the record, I don’t remember tiny letters being that big of a pain in […]

Back-Up Crash and Burn (update)

June 23rd, 2009

So I realized that I forgot to give an update as to what happened with the pitiful external hard drive. “TS” took the HD to a local disk repair shop, who (after some confusion) opened up the case to discover that when the drive landed, it grounded out in 3 places. This means that there […]

When the Back-Up Crashes

January 22nd, 2009

What do you do when your back up crashes? I’ll tell you what I did.. Freak out! Most of my crap stuff are backed up on DVDs and my .5 TB MyBook external. Had I known how crappy fragile the MyBook was, I would’ve jumped on my annual back up a lot sooner. Here’s the […]

FavIcons = Important

November 24th, 2008

I updated the favourites icon (FavIcon) on the EmaCartoon.com page last week.  I told a friend subsequently thereafter, and was promptly thanked on behalf of all System Administrators. What?  Why?  How could a measly 16 pixel x 16 pixel image have such an impact to be thanked on behalf of all SysAdmins?  So I did […]

My manager had previously installed Netscape Navigator onto his work computer, and since we work on web publishing, he later installed Opera so we can see how webpages will look in the different browsers. Makes sense, right? Well, turns out Opera overwrote the navigator.exe file and has it […]
