This is a good “dicslaimer” when you have to post something sensitive on your blog. Warn the readers that what they are about to read is purely a rant. Then you go bash something (or someone), perhaps swear & mock some Micro**ft product, without fear of getting ridiculed. Why? Because it is a rant. As…
This is funny. Forwarded by mail.. . and i have nothing better to do. Whoever wrote this, well, this one’s to you. English translation after the original text. so don’t worry. 😀 ITO NGA BA ANG ALAMAT KUNG BAKIT NAGSISINUNGALING ANG MGA LALAKI? Karpintero itong si Jojo at isang araw eh gumagawa siya…
weee.. . my blog zeroing in almost always lands on the first page of Google & Yahoo!, The search giants. just type the keyword “zeroing in” and it should be there. how wonderful! it should depend on the data center in Google’s case. but i’ve also tried using IPs from the US & Canada and…
i just heard of this new Linux distro that supposedly sold out @ Walmart.com. it’s name.. . gOS. sounds like a Mac eh? and from the screenshot, it looks like one too! but wait, all over the desktop you can already distinguish familiar icons. going over to the gOS website, you can find more subtle…

Halloween. Sly does it. Tiptoe catspaws. Slide and creep. But why? What for? How? Who? When! Where did it all begin? “You don’t know, do you?” asks Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud climbing out of the pile of leaves under the Halloween Tree. “You don’t really know!” —Ray Bradbury, The Halloween Tree we’re gonna have a halloween…
i was not able to watch the cool trailers on apple.com/trailers tonight. bummer! i’ve already installed (via apt-get) the plugin to fix this.. . no luck! googled for a fix and i find out in a matter of seconds that i’m not the only one with this problem. this one even goes way back in…
23 seconds. this is the fastest boot-up time i’ve attained so far, not including X-server + KDM start up time. the 2 alone takes another 20 seconds, the latter taking up the most time to initialize. bootchart only keeps track of the boot time before X starts. give or take a second or two, my…
i seem to be behind the latest news on the latest release of the Ubuntu Linux operating system. Ubuntu 7.10 Beta, codenamed “Gutsy Gibbon” was released last September 27, 2007. this newest release of the popular Linux distro boasts of an integrated compositing window manager backed by Compiz Fusion, automatic printer installation, fast user switching,…
partying has never been this crazy for me! at least not like this.. . and it is, by far, the longest one i have had. come to think of it, this is just no ordinary party. this is the party in NeverWinter Nights 2. a party of five individuals that would highly unlikely come together…
picture this: you were editing some document using one application of OpenOffice.org’s office suite and suddenly it crashes! (yes it’s happened to me a few times.. .) well thank the heavens it has this Auto Recovery thing. but wait! that document you were editing wasn’t really important. it was just a test document. so before…
adventuring takes up a lot of one’s time. something like a month’s worth of time.. . blogging time. i’ve been neck-deep with NeverWinter Nights 2 for the whole month of august that i was just able to make one post on this blog that month! talk about neglect. right now, i am still not done…
