I’ve had Azureus running for 227 days, though not consecutively, and just passed 1000 GB transfer (almost exactly 500 up, 500 down). Now that is something to celebrate.
Also, I noticed that I can now get 8 Mbit ADSL, and I got all excited until I read the fine print and realized that you only get [...]

Easily one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time. And the Batman and indeed comic book movie we’ve all been waiting for. For as long as I can remember.
What I particularly like about Batman Begins is the contemplative issues that arise throughout the movies. Like crime and punishment. Revenge. Hatred. Vigilantism. Ideas [...]

Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Battlestar Galactica … what a weekend. And what a lineup for Sci-fi Friday.
I guess there is still hope after Richard Dean Anderson.
One thing that has been bothering me increasingly is the projected image of the US that is present in both SG-1 and to some extent Atlantis. I am irked [...]

Dismal acting, especially by Alba who just feels dead wrong for the part. Silly, and nervously humorous but a good summer super hero movie. Not a new hallmark for Marvel though. Just too superficial. The reviewers say it best …
“An overinflated B-movie with no grace, no subtext, no wit, and featuring beefcake/cheesecake actors who look [...]

I felt I needed the “latest posts” boxes. But they didn’t quite turn out the way I expected them to. At least I found a way to rid myself of images, if I could ever get it to display right in IE. Must have done something to break the concept. Oh well.
I’m thinking I should [...]

So I went to see it and all my preconceptions were just blown away. A little dull at times, sure, but beautiful, gloomy, dark and scary. Very few heroisms a la Independence Day. Very few, if any, comic reliefs. Instead, what hit me was the dysfunctional family that Cruise’s character is placed in. Definitely a [...]

So, I harvested the first strawberries of the season yesterday. It’s nice in a roundabout way to make things of your own. Even though the time invested in the garden hardly pays off in terms of harvested biomass.

Seems to be a problem with the bandwidth metering in cPanel. I’m getting 7.7GB which is quite impossible. Especially since the gallery* and movies* subdomains shows double the usage in the overview which also goes into the overall stats. I reckon the correct figure should be 5-5.5 GB but I’ll have to confirm this. At [...]
