Cutting carbs out of your diet really works. My good friend Beej Das has stopped eating carbs entirely and has lost about 30 pounds. He is my height. He looks great now. I’ve been trying to find ways to cut carbs out of my diet too, but damn I love me some good bread and pasta.

Check this out: replace your morning toast with a pita bread. It tastes good (my pita bread has high fructose corn syrup ! Yummy) and has a fraction of the carbs of two slices of toast.

My Morning Eggs

The Pita Bread makes a wonderful lid to help the eggs cook faster. Remember your Physics 103: Thermodynamics? The Pita heats up and keeps the hot air below it to cook the eggs. It also avoids folding the pita to fit it into a toaster oven.

A little butter, a little pepper, and voila! Delicious low(er) carb breakfast!

I’m getting a streaming error “DRM Error” while trying to stream netflix. I watched an episode of Lost when I got home last night, soon after midnight, and it worked fine. What could be causing this error today?

Since everyone knows that Microsoft Silverlight is a piece of crap, it is the immediate culprit. I noticed that a Silverlight update was installed by Microsoft today or last night.

The Update number is KB982926 and it seems to have broken Netflix’s Streaming capabilities. It contained Silverlight Version 4.

FIX:
1. Go to Windows Update Settings and change it from “Automatically install updates” to “Download updates and ask me when to install” (otherwise silverlight will reinstall itself again)
2. Close your web browser
3. Go to Control Panel -> Uninstall a program -> Remove Silverlight
4. Go to netflix.com and start streaming a movie. It will prompt you to go to microsoft’s site and install Silverlight Version 3.
5. Restart your browser and it should work. Just worked for me on Windows 7.
