Lifestream: Upgraded to Wordpress 2.5. Better late than never.
I made a new category, tentatively called “Leechings.” For those really important notes on what is really happening on the grass root level in the P2P world. Namely what people (that is I) are downloading. Exclamations, recommendations, plugs, jeering about damaged files and such.
I traditionally felt this would ruin the format of the journal. But [...]
Postal reforms are a wonderful thing. Or so I’ve been told. But since the Swedish Postal Service (Posten AB) starting playing by strictly capitalistic rules a few years back, it doesn’t really matter that it is still owned and operated by the state. Here is an example of how drastically their so called service has [...]
Another late discovery. Someone recommended Pandora, the Music Genome Project, and after browsing wikipedia I realized that it was much like another technology that I had skipped, namely Audioscrobbler / Last.fm.
Yeah, I know, I’m probably the last person on the planet to get an account with Last.fm. I have always tried to program or [...]
As pretty much the last person in the world to pick up “Firefly” and the recent follow-up movie “Serenity” I still have to offer some sort of commentary. Mostly so because I did bash the series, having only seen a mangled TV-RIP of the pilot way back in 2003. When I actually sat down with [...]
Should have thought of that. Better to stick it to spammers than routing to :blackhole: and encouraging more unrouted email.
Now that turned out to be a complete piece of crap. The TorqueMaster Counterbalance System on the most commonly used garage door gave up after just 5 years. So much for Wayne Dalton’s superior American craftsmanship.
Political Ideologies and the Democratic Ideal Terence Ball, Richard Dagger. 5th ed. 2003. 320 pp. Longman.
Written with the firm belief that ideology is the driving force of nation-states, history, and politics, this innovative text covers the range of contemporary political ideologies, from the standard categories of liberalism, conservatism, and socialism to newly emerging ideological [...]
I got this notice in the mail (the “corporeal” mail you know) today from a company calling themselves Klassfest.com. Some class reunion solicitation. I do not know how they were able to procure my address but suffice it to say I have half a mind to put them out of business for good. I take [...]
I know I just noted just the other day how painless the install was and so forth, praising the Ultra133 card. Well, it took about a day for me to run into some major difficulties. Essentially as hinted here and here, the card DOES NOT support ATAPI optical units, i.e. DVD writers and reader. It [...]
