So here I am, sitting behind my desktop workstation as usual, hacking away at my aquariusoft.org website [I use a s3kr1t url for the prototype ;)], reading my daily overload of news and blogs and trying to figure out how I can do a 20 minute presentation of a 5 …

Heh, well I've got my share of computers anecdotes from the last few days. First of all, my server died. It turned out to be a bad motherboard [and maybe a too light power supply], but at first I thought the main HDD drive had died. That would have been …

I just booted XCalibur, my server, successfully. I replaced the motherboard [the other was b0rked, if I'm right], so now it has a nice Asus A7V8X-X heart. However, this has onboard LAN, so I left out the ethernet card. But then the Woody install didn't have LAN anymore. Turned out …

It's now Thursday evening. Finally, that paper is done. Typed frantically yesterday to get a nice piece which was of submit quality, and I must say, it's quite nice. I'll post it later this week, because the subject [Digital Rights Management and Fair Use by design, and freedom of content …

What is it about me and writing papers? Well, papers about subjects I don't really, _really_ care about? I just don't get them done. Well, this one doesn't have to be lengthy, so I'm going to act tomorrow like it has to be submitted that evening. Guess I'll be finished …

I keep on posting today :) I came alongNerd Attention Deficiency Disorder [short: NADD], which, erm, fits me fairly well. I don't know if that's good or bad, but it enables me to sift through huge amounts of information in a short time. A follow-up story, In Defense of N …

Alextreme's fun with referrers and porno links. I guess they found his hidden pr0n site ;) I'm currently [well sometimes, when I'm in the mood] implementing a log digging script, so I can marvel at the useless information my logs remember for me, so I guess there are a few pearls …

Went to TINE yesterday. It was a little bit boring, except for some of the smaller stands and the [somewhat forced] discussion about Open Source and Linux in commercial use and with the government. We came along the stand of Amaze, a small company building a CMS in Python. Maybe …

While sleeping in Breedster, I got raped by a girl - Pink Babe. Talking about a weird game :) Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2004 23:39:42 +0200 (CEST) From: Breedster To: aquatix Subject: Breedster - Pink Babe -PinkFam- has mated you Hi aquatix, Pink Babe -PinkFam- has mated you. 2 …

It was a lovely day today. First of all: the sun shined while it wasn't quite supposed to. Second, I'm currently copying 3 albums to a 256MB memorystick I bought earlier today so I can listen to them from my pda. I got a fresh haircut [boy that was needed …

While it's not that bad as this girl describes, my grades aren't great either. I'm doing some classes now that just aren't interesting, but I want them finished before I go on and do the far more interesting Master courses. Maybe I should have a change of scenery too [move …

When will ISPs finally realize that the replies with "you've send an e-mail that contains a virus to one of our addresses" [in this case Netsky.Q] are futile? Those viruses contain made up From: addresses, so you don't even know who send it at all. I don't want …

Reversed the order comments where sorted at: now it's chronological and that's far more logical ;) Now that I'm at that point: top posting in an email or usenet message seems to be considered not done. I was a little confused when I saw the strong reactions someone got when he …

I updated the comments design today. It looks a lot cleaner now, shows linebreaks as actual breaks and the system sends me an email when someone adds a comment. Neat :) A lot of internal code cleanup makes it actually a nice package I could release. I'm wondering if I want …

It's kinda sad: I just don't feel right when I don't have some electronic gadget with me. It doesn't matter where I'm going or what I bring with me - cellphone, pda, laptop, whatever - but I just have to bring some of my gadgets to feel at ease. Some example of …

[Anybody who's played WarCraft III, remember the Orcs saying "Work work" - that's what's playing in my mind now :)]. Anyway, setting up a new website with a co-worker at the moment. Converting html designs into java jsp's, setting up xml files and stuff. Big fun :| Ah well, we've planned to play …

Just updated the whole thing. Have fun with it and please mail me [or react :)] if anything b0rks! BTW, notice the new blogmark feed :)

Working on tons of new stuff, so stay tuned. Maybe I'll even finish it tonight. Hm, then I'll be kinda sleepy at work tomorrow; maybe a bad idea. I'll see :)

First of all [text borrowed from Debian.org]: protest against software patents in Europe. Most software will become illegal to use in Europe if this dangerous directive is adopted without proper amending. The Commission and the Council of Ministers are covertly pushing for unlimited patentability of software, heavily lobbied by …

Installing [or updating, actually] winxp on a Dell with a cracked screen. Ow, and a b0rked space bar. Why do people always have to abuse pc's? It has such a nice resolution [1400x1050], but it's all fscked up [pictures will follow]. Ow, did I mention the spacebar is fricking b0rked …
