I don't have the words...
Fuzzy sent me a link to this video: I really don't even know what to say about it. I actually watched the whole thing. I've long been of the opinion that, if you took all of the time that people have used to create things like this, and devoted Read More...
Another Saturday Night...
I really hate that fucking song. Come to think of it, I've developed a strong distaste for a lot of the "Oh-woe-is-me:-I'm-lonely-tonight-and-I-wish-I-had-a-nice-girl-who-could-bake-while-I'm-out-with-my-chums" style songs of the Read More...
The life of a developer
I just got home. Ok, that's not strictly accurate. I got home about 20 minutes ago. Before I sat down at the computer, I took a shower because, well, I needed it. Without getting into too much detail, I'm the tester for Komponent Y on Feature Read More...
Aw, fuck it
I've given up on Ubuntu Linux for now. No matter what I do, the title bars, control buttons, and frames of the windows disappear shortly after I enable Compiz Fusion. I've seen all of the suggested fixes for this, and none of them work. So, with Read More...
I have people skills! Don't you understand that? What the hell is the matter with you people?
People have often told me that I have fairly good people skills, and that I get along well with others. This is amazing in and of itself because I typically detest other members of the so-called Human race, and try to avoid them whenever possible. Especially Read More...
The Zune is Seriously Weak
I've tried really hard to say nice things about the Zune, seeing as how I went out to buy one (actually two) when I really didn't need one, but this is pretty much it. I also have a Zen Vision:M. And it is better than my Zune in every way except Read More...
Not to be elitist or anything...
There's a post on Craigslist tonight from a girl searching for a man with an IQ somewhere between 125 and 135 so that she can find "someone at [her] own level." For greater clarity as to why I'm posting this, here's the text of Alberta Read More...
Use the source, Luke...
Ok. So, I hate Star Wars, but I thought that was sort of a valid reference. I just downloaded the source code to a Windows Media Center add-in that I wanted to use on Vista, but the binaries didn't work. I figured, "Hey... I'm a Software Read More...
Bring back the mints
It's almost 3 in the morning, and I'm still not asleep. The pills are working, sort of. I can feel parts of my brain going off and on line, but I'm not falling asleep. Being sick sucks. However, had I not been sick and unable to sleep, I wouldn't Read More...
Long nights
Since Thursday of last week, I've been working an gut-wrenching number of hours. It's crunchtime at work, and the feature that I'm working as a developer on is rather behind. Not because of me, might I add - there have been a huge number of Read More...
Well, that was fun
The move to the new server has taken a lot longer than I thought it would. The main issue I was having was with the data migration. My new provider wouldn't let me import directly from SQL server to SQL server, so I had to do an insane amount of fucking Read More...
