blog.iphone-dev.org | PwnageTool and QuickPwn for 2.1 Firmware
The folks at iphone-dev.org have once again been able to release a jailbreak app for the latest iPhone/iPod Touch firmware–2.1. Having just updated my iPhone last night to get some of the improvement benefits, I was very excited to see this released today. I have a terminal emulator again. 🙂
Today was my first day of classes. I came in to Rexburg yesterday (Sunday) and attended my first classes today. My schedule this semester is going to be a killer. Today I had three of the hardest classes I’ve had back to back. I brought my bike down, but I don’t really know where to go around here so if anyone wants to go let me know.
Summer went by way too quickly. By the time the snow left it was nearly half over. It was a great summer though. I was able to go on lots of rides with Carson and Matt. We had a lot of fun. I hope the school year goes well…
I don’t have the Internet yet, so I am posting this from my iPhone with the iPhone app. I copied my server (vmware fusion image) to a mac mini before I left. Seems to be working like a charm.
I went on a great bike ride up Caribou Mountain last Wednesday with Duston Turner, but I’ve been too lazy to write about it (I will later). I was, however, able to go out with my little bro Carson and enjoy a few minutes of the great outdoors. While we were stopped for a second I saw the biggest flock of Ravens I have ever seen, followed by a most beautiful sunset. It has been a great summer, and although I am looking forward to going back to school for a few reasons I have many things that I will miss about being in the beautiful Star Valley.
Although some may hate rain and bad weather, I know of two groups of people that love it. Farmers (if they have their hay in, as we do), and photographers. Although I am not much of a photographer, I have tried to make the most of it. here are just a few shots I was able to take. Most are from today, one is from last night.
The fun things you can see on a motorbike ride. Enough said. 🙂 Taken and posted from my iPhone.
Two days ago I got a new iPhone, and with all its web capabilities I decided to try and use some of the advanced features. So, I am currently in the tractor loading hay while updating my webpage. I took some photos too, hope they turn out. Note: not too sure what happened, but it doesn’t look like it saved the photos. To bad too, they were kind of cool.
My sister Katie graduated from BYU-Idaho last Friday night (18th), which also happened to be the night of the full moon. I took advantage of the drive home by stopping by the dam on Palisades and taking a few photos. My sister was with me and it was late (after midnight) so I wasn’t able to stay as long as I would have liked to have and gotten the exposures I wanted, but it was still fun to take a few moonlight photos. Photos were taken between midnight and One o’clock with an Olympus E-3 DSLR. The shots are around a eight to fifteen minute exposures. Moonlight photography is something that really needs a lot of practice to know what the proper exposures should be, so if you are interested in it my best advise is just get a good tripod and get out and practice.
Last Friday and Saturday I was able to go camping up Caribou Mountain with some of local church kids and leaders. I was asked to go because the main point of the activity was to go on a dirt-bike ride, and I know the area we went to very well. It was the first time I had been up there this year; the area fascinates me both because of the beauty and the historical importance of the old gold mine ghost town. It was also fun being with my little bro and friends. Update: Carson also wrote a write-up on the ride; if you want more information feel free to check it out here.
My friend Jesse just posted a how-to on changing OS X passwords from singe user mode. Working on lots of macs all the time it has come in handy.
Summer is in full swing, and I thought I’d post just a few things (through photos) that have happened the past week. We had a nice lightning storm, but unfortunately by the time I got ready I was only able to catch the tale end of it. Yesterday did pulled a calf, and unfortunately the calf did not make it. Today I went to Idaho Falls then to Rexburg. It felt weierd being on campus during the summer, but it was nice seeing some people I haven’t seen for a while. Then on the way home I took some photos at the Palisaids Power Plant, but I was a little early for the light I wanted.
