I actually did something today besides crawling too many news sites and web logs: I helped someone with Computer Networks assignment [again], and set up a forum. Yeah people, that's right: aquariusoft.org has a forum! Now you can dump you annoyances about aquamorph, GNU/Linux and windows in one …

I'm starting to sound as a fulltime web developer/designer right now, but while I was playing with Apache's mod_rewrite to get cleaner url's, I came along Why link to index.php?, which - besides being a nicely designed blue weblog - has some points in favor of this. I'm planning …

There we go again; another midterm. I hope I don't feel like her this time. At least Distributed Systems is a cool subject. Not very trivial however. Ok, now stop configuring this pc and go studying stupid.

And it keeps on coming. Fixed some IE stupidities [archive was b0rked, navigation buttons wheren't shown properly]; when does that browser learn CSS? Added admin functionality: delete comment [moderating is fun ;) ], edit posting. Fixed some minor bugs when I was at it too.

Alex has made a good point in his Silly dead-tree media corp posting; lots of dead trees are spent at that incredibly low-level newspaper, the Kut Krant. I dunno, but I always have reservations against people reading that paper seriously, it's just so full of crap [exaggerating almost everything and …

Just hacked^Wimplemented e-mail notifications into the comment functionality. Check the box to receive an update when someone else comments too. Please provide a valid e-mail address ;) Now I'm really off to my appointment :D

I don't know why I repeat the word "Fresh" in the title, but I revamped the looks of this weblog. With a white background for the main body and better navigation [try Alt+] it sure looks refreshed. In my opinion. Well, please give feedback for the likes and non-likes …

I mentioned earlier that I was thinking about merging the software of this weblog into aqute, but I'm currently updating and extending it seperately. I don't have that much time currently and probably won't have it in the upcoming months either, so I'll just implement some features I want badly …

Websites are nice. They are interesting as they are an expression of your creativity, thoughts and/or skills. They contain loads of useful or useless information or only contain some pictures you took a while ago with your shiny new digicam. But maintaining them, keeping them up-to-date with new information …

I find myself checking my e-mail after been to two parties while having made a kind of bet with a friend of mine to not use a pc for the weekend. Hmm, am I that addicted? I only wanted to send an e-mail and check up a small digicam I …

I've discovered Skype. I had it installed some time now, but never used it until a friend of mine told me he always holds group chats on it. Well, installed the latest version and made fun until 3AM. Quite cool to have a headset on your head, make jokes and …

Well, surely been busy this week. University eating my time as always, been offline [almost] the entire weekend [spending those days with my girlfriend made up for it bigtime ;) ], looking for a new chair and a chest for clothes. Eating pancakes on a restaurant ship, drinking way too much beer …

Looking good as always, check the new and improved xfce4. There's a beta version of the compositor too; check the translucent panel at the bottom. Gotta get me x.org 6.8.x some day :/ Get it at xfce.org. I myself hope it hits Debian's repositories soonish.

Life is fun. Even pessimists know life can be fun, if only for having a great girlfriend and being able to having good times with her. But life can play it's tricks upon us. Enter the younger brother of my gf and his own girlfriend. They are both 19 years …

Added a 120GiB hdd drive to my workstation Saturday. I had it lying around for a while, and when I came to build it into my trusty AMD Duron 750MHz workstation, I figured it wasn't going to fit. Well, not in the drive bracket that is. There are already 2 …

University and work really have me in a strong grip, so here are some tidbits I gathered last week. Our national technology proud - Philips - has a new slogan: "Sense and simplicity". Their previous one, "Let's make things better" lasted ten years, and now they where in for something new. They …

Finished my breakfast at about 3PM today after about 12 hours of sleep. That twelve hours compensated for the about 2.5 hours of sleep I got the night before, at Alex' place, after a night of drinking beer, wandering around looking for a train [missing the last one home …

For those wondering, the wonderful thing called University has opened it's gates again and is sucking up lots of my precious time. As I'm planning to actually get my bachelor this year [that's about two years late :/ ], I've dived headlong into it. So, I'm not dead, only a bit occupied …

There have been quite a few protests against Bush in New York lately. The Axis of Eve Panty Flash Protest I like the best, but there are lots of others, like the bicycle rider protest. Lots of people where arrested, over 1500 as I heard. Now doesn't that seem a …

I hate it when my browser goes belly up on me. It shows how dependent I've become on the thing. Thank $DEITY it happens only twice a year or something, but it just happened to me. I only had about 35 tabs open [all very interesting stuff, really], and then …
