Geekyness

Have had somewhat of a geeky evening spending most of it on my laptop in front of the tv (watching Ghana beat USA in the World Cup). Got some photos of my lovely iPod Nano with Skullcandy Inkd headphones, and (not intentionally) matching Nokia 5310. The case on my iPod is a iSkin Vibes Flower [...]

Second interview, new job (whoohoo!), and stuff

[Insert tired babbling and waffling alert here] As I wrote a few posts ago I had an interview on the 17th of November. I ended up getting a second interview which I went to on the 11th of December. I didn’t think that the second interview went as well as the first one, but then [...]

Blog spruce up

Spent the evening fiddling about with the template for my blog. Updated the template with the new one made for the latest version of WordPress. Had fun finding all the changes I’d made to the previous template :P Mental note to self: comment the files properly and save yourself some work next time ;P Anyway, [...]

Horrible colds and geekyness

Been home from work today with a horrible cold (blocked nose, cough, and hardly any voice left) after having foolishly gone to work yesterday. Trying to do telephone support when you have hardly any voice left is a bit hard. :PToday’s diet has mainly consisted of Camomile tea and honey, orange juice, summer fruit squash, [...]

Geekyness ftw ;)

I’ve now installed VirtualBox on my laptop running Ubuntu 8.04. In the VirtualBox I’ve installed WinXP Pro, and it’s currently running an installation of Service Pack 2 in the background. :) The main reason I’ve installed VirtualBox and WinXP in it is so that I can test my website in Internet Exploder without having to [...]

Varying degrees of success

Decided to make an attempt at plugging in my KVM switch again this weekend. I sort of got it working the way I wanted to. Had some problems when connecting it to my desktop machine with the VGA to DVI cable (I won’t go into details as it’ll probably bore you to death or make [...]

Somewhat of an epic update

Need to update more often I think :P Prepare for a bit of a long post.. So where to start.. Shortly after my last update (probably only a few days tbh) me and Charles went to Birmingham to go to a Jean Michel Jarre gig. I wouldn’t say it’s the kind of music I’d normally [...]

Come to the dork side..

..we have cookies ;) Have a had a rather geeky last two days :) Now running Ubuntu on both my laptop and my desktop pc :) I’ve got only Ubuntu 7.10 installed on my laptop, and I’ve got dual boot with Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha 6 and Windows XP Pro on the desktop pc. Got everything [...]

C'mon you Spurs!

Been a good weekend :) Spurs just won the Carling Cup! :D Beat Chelsea 2-1, and they well deserved it :) Now we need to get a dual layer dvd-r so we can record it off the Sky+ box and put the dvd next to the one with the second leg of the semi-final (when [...]

Time flies..

..when you’re having fun, as the saying goes. Well, at least time’s been flying past. Feels like I blink and the week is gone. This in itself isn’t too bad, but unfortunately the weekends disappear just as quickly. ;P Not sure an awful lot of interesting things have happened since I last updated, but hey. [...]
