Note to self #3

Monday, March 12th, 2007

Setting your maximum bittorrent connections to wun zillion because your connection and computer are teh fats is all very well until you find that the latest BSG episode has eleven thousand seeds.

Mental note that this shouldn’t be configurable even under expert mode. Which, of course, every single person who has Azureus installed uses. Fucking prefs monkeys.

Note to self re: curry

The best things truly do come to those who wait.

A medium heat over a long time is a bad idea. A low heat (low as sensibly possible) produces super results for the whole family.

Fucking XGL, by the way.

Stylish

Monday, January 9th, 2006

The Stylish extension is awesome. So useful. I’m using it on an almost sitely basis now, for everything. So much more suited to my level of hackery than Greasemonkey. np, get a fucking website.

Dear Chris

Monday, December 12th, 2005

While not hanging about with people who take you for granted reduces your immediate circle of friends, it is proven to (a) provide impetus for you to get off your fat complacent arse and talk to people who don’t and (b) result in a generally enhanced cordial relationship with such people in the future.

In addition, it is unlikely that you are ever going to have a collection of porn which you would regard as “complete” in any sense, so promising yourself that you’ll stop eventually isn’t going to work. Either you cancel your interweb subscription or you gradually fill all available disk with porn. Admit this.

This wysiwyg editor is still iffy. (just to ensure that all rants on this blog go on about wordpress’s fucking text entry widget.)

MY PHONE IS A PILE OF COCK.

I don’t want to have to spend Christmas money on something so fucking trivial.

If the en-GB (urgh) build isn’t updated to 1.5 shortly I’ll fucking do it. This is taking the royal piss.

Also, I WAS A COMPLETE SLACKER AT UNIVERSITY AND STILL KNOW DATABASES BETTER THAN ALL FREE SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS.

This party on Friday had better be outstanding.

JESUS CHRIST YOU INCOMPETENT CRETINS

Thursday, November 3rd, 2005

In the last 48 hours I have had to hack other people’s shitty PHP in no less than half a dozen packages because PHP programmers never grew up on real fucking languages where one learns how a function works before writing one.

Wordpress managed not to be immune to this, which annoys me greatly. Drupal, though. It will suffer.

This excludes those applications whose programmers are so lazy and inept that their applications currently require a legacy version of either php or mysql. Well, except Wordpress, but the problem there is that nobody actually writing PHP5 has ever tested it on mysql4.

At this rate, more chemicals will be needed for the big chemical fire.

Spork

Wednesday, October 5th, 2005

Definition: Ubuntu. All the benefits of a fork, and you can eat jelly with it too.

I really need to find out how best to mark up a definition.
