A while ago I wrote about how to do a wifi iPhone tether with a SOCKS proxy. Now, I’ll be writing about a Bluetooth tether on 3.0/3.0.1 with a 3G/3GS. To make this work on 3.1, you will need to enable tethering separately, which can usually be done by installing the “Internet Tethering” package in Cydia. This does NOT rely on that uit.sh script floating around, and will work on any Linux system with bluetooth. I used my Fedora 10 laptop for this.
I’ve attempted to write a complete OpenWRT setup tutorial, since many out there lack certain parts. This will cover the basics and the more advanced things you can do with OpenWRT. Read more for the tutorial.
Mattventura.net and all of its services are back up after a power outage last night.
The WordPress theme Roundicity that I made (well, actually modified, read the style.css file) is sort of complete, just needs better IE support. If you want to help, just send me an email. (mattventura.at.mattventura.net)
Feedback is welcomed in the comments, along with any questions you might have.
This theme does not work well in IE6. If you have IE6 users visiting your site, you should probably tell them to upgrade.
This is what happens when you follow the instructions in the previous post.

Since it’s near the 4th of July, I thought I’d post a safe (as safe as any other firecracker) way to get a nice big bang out of $5. Read on for instructions and photos.
After I wrote my previous post, the complaints I got were mostly along the lines of “well, a $2500 computer is a nerd computer.” So I decided to do a much more reasonable comparison. I will now see what I can get for $999. This will be a comparison of desktop computers again, since trying to get a laptop for $999 would leave certain companies out in the cold.
You have $2500 to spend on a computer. How could you spend it? Let’s find out. I’ll see what kind of desktop I could get from Dell, HP, and Apple for $2500, and I’ll compare it to what I got about 7 months ago. Read on for more.
Read on for some nice pictures of my workstation.
This site will soon be getting another server in adition to the main one. This on could be a database server among other things.
