I'd be more inclined to think you should rant about this one. Pun intended.

I used to flat with a guy that lived and breathed Linux. I still have him on MSN if you ever need me to question him about anything.

I got a blogspot the other day, too. It's not ready yet though ... some day soon it will be, I hope.
kye:
Sure did read it. Only the two most recent ones so far, but I've bookmarked it with every intention to start from the beginning on Saturday at work when things are quiet. I suspect I might get something out of it.

Right now, things are crazy. I can't remember the last time I had a day that I wasn't run off my feet.

Also, thank you re: mountains to molehills with your bare hands. Mean so much that one of my fave people will be there with me.

Invite is also extended to Sarah, of course.

Gah. I have to prepare a presentation now. Blergh! Talk soon. xx

I'm studying a unit entitled 'Virtual Cultures' this semester. As part of the assessment we're to keep a blog with entries discussing points pertinent to those covered in the lectures.

Last week's topic was open source software and, lacking any ideas as to how to comment on the field and, plagued as I have been for some time by a curiosity about it, I decided...

I know ya'll won't much care but I'm reserving tonight just for leisure. Fuck uni and fuck early nights for work...I need a little down time.

Constantly having to be somewhere else or having my mind forever on something other than the moment is draining me; it's not how I live, when given a choice.

I believe the moment you're in is the most precious...

I downloaded this last week and watched it last night:

Ben X



The subtitles in the copy I have aren't hard-subbed (i.e. a part of the movie file), I had to find them in a separate file and use Vobsub to overlay them. They don't seem as good as the subs you see in this trailer, but the story is still easy to follow, even...

Time to bitch about my work!

I HATE most of the people I have to work closely with. And one of them is my Auntie.
My direct team is predominantly made up of pushy, uninformed middle-aged women who think their opinion is the only one that counts, and if you think otherwise you're obviously wrong. I'm sure you know the type.

Usually I can handle...

Think you could get that interrobang by me, didja? Not likely!

Also, I bet they vote for the Liberal Party and are afraid of aboriginals and kids that wear hoodies[1].

I can't imagine what I used to blog so regularly about.
Either my life was much more interesting or I was much more boring...

You can't have been more boring than this blog post.

I suspect that you didn't have a young-twenty-something girlfriend then!

Love.. it is very consuming if you give into it.

Coffee/pancakes/late night mocha by end April. Okay? Cool.

EDIT: Holy shit! You like Day of the Triffids? Oh! I love that book! I may have recently acquired the dvd also. I'm yet to watch it. Perhaps that might be fun too... Yeah?!

I found this in the Futurism group.

It's a little long and off-putting at the start, but stick with it, it gets very interesting in the latter half.

Video that won't embed into my blog!

The thread also contained this interesting post. Please watch the video before you read it.

Haha actually, I don't mind the cardigan.

And yeah I guess there's some dishevelled traveller in there, but whatever I have isn't particularly distinct, y'know? And that's what I'm after.
cleverthings:
I have often thought this. It's exactly the sort of thing I mull over!! I have yet to watch the video, however, as I can't watch vids at work... but I shall have to look into it!!

In other news, you should come to this!!

Can you please let me know by today whether you can make it? smile
