Rebloggin' init butt
I can already see how reblogging is going to sky rocket it now, before it was just the things that people you followed, posted. But now it’s everything and anything, one hand good, one hand bad. One hand is “my strong hand!” I did my part in letting them know how much I wanted the feature on the dash, not just the login screen. They listened… To me… Personally.

Nothing to say, something to type
Finally going out tonight, haven’t gone to town and it’s sad that this will probably be the last time in a while thanks to exams over the course of next month. Being back in University has been pretty good so far, I forget what I do day to day, but always recall enjoying myself, so that’s alright. Only the one lecture today, so afterwards I set off down to Subway grab a foot long to prepare for...

dangurewitch: The Dark Knight: 1960s Version. Written by me and Ben, directed by Josh. I can’t speak highly enough of the 1960s Batman series & film — I love them unironically. So it was fun to parlay that enthusiasm into this homage. Digg it.

Baby Steps
Started following random people who posted cool shit on the mainstream which is easy to view if you log out of tumblr, I can’t wait to be able to view all tumblr post like they should be. The radar view is cool, but doesn’t work well, have the option of both would be super. Using my own url is causing some glitches on the following front though, need to find a fix but in the mean...

Haxor
Right, whenever I’ve found the time to sit at my desk today, I’ve just stared at this piece of paper filled with words that have no meaning to me. Haskell is utter rubbish when compared to Java and it doesn’t help that the lecturer who is meant to be teaching us it is utter rubbish himself. At least the greater majority of the class is also struggling, that sort of makes it...

Windows 7 RC1 Wallpapers →
These are the default wallpapers that will ship with Windows 7. As a boy man who loves wallpapers, this is a big step for Windows7 trying to be cool, like Mac OSX already is. So far, they’ve really stepped up their game with Windows7. I might buy it straight away when it comes out as it is looking so good on the Beta and this latest RC1.

I'm not an animal, I'm a human being
Apart from going over to University, I’ve barely left my house this week which is nothing short of depressing. Even if I’ve spent the majority of my time putting off doing coursework, I still blame the amount of work due for forcing me in. Quite a bit due this week and I still need to fit revision in as well. It’s a bit of a joke to be quite honest when compared to other...

Link to the newly released version of Ubuntu. I installed the Release Candidate (The version after Beta testing) and loved it so I’ll be playing about with this later when I’m home without a doubt.

Getting the internet to work for me
A couple of years ago I had a Webcam for Christmas when they first came out. As a child, I decided to test this camera by dancing in front of it like a fool. Last year, this video was brought to my attention at my sister’s wedding. The original plan was for my family to either show this at my wedding or at my 21st, then upload it to YouTube but they couldn’t wait and shortly after returning...

Crank That
So yeah, Crank 2, not good. Not a surprise, but I found it even worse than I had imagined. I know I was meant to laugh at how bad it was, but I couldn’t even do that, instead I just became increasingly annoying with everyone involved in the making of it. Jason Statham has to be the worse actor in a film I’ve seen, period. He’s making million dollar movies; I’m stuck here...

For your consideration
Oh hey, I didn’t see you there. Did you just join tumblr? Well, if so you might want to think about to adding a comment feature to your blog for an interactive process for your readers and other bloggers. The easiest and most featured way to implement one is via Disqus. Simply go to the website, sign up and enter your details along with your blogs details. If you want to add more functionality,...

It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks...
Ah, back to good old’ text based blogging. My day started like any other day, unrefreshed and late thanks to oversleeping. I had to be in at 9am, I woke up into this world at 8:30am, I ate my cereal of some variety of the Weetabix brand, but not necessarily Weetabix itself. With each mouthful, I thought “I’ll just eat this, dress and go straight there so I can be on time. Wear a hat if need be.” I...

Okay, so I found out yesterday that it is indeed possible for a barcode tattoo to work, as the above video demonstrates. Getting white lines in-between the black will also reduce the blurring as long as I it get topped up every year or so. So now I just have to think about whether I’d actually be able to live with myself if I had this done and how much time I would spend scanning myself in...

Part the first
Before reading, press play, and begin stretching your empathy out for this heart warming/ breaking/ raping story. Now they say that man’s best friend is dog, that might be true, but Miles’ best friend is his car… Picture the year, 1992. Japan apologizes for forcing Korean women into sexual slavery during World War II. Windows 3.1 is released by Microsoft. Sweden wins the Ice Hockey...

Compatibility
I realised today that the background of my blog won’t show up in Internet Explorer. I’ll take a look later to try and fix it, but in the mean time: Use a real fucking browser. Update: Done, fuck thank me later.

It's beer o'clock, and I'm buying.
Okay, so today I’ve done nothing but watch Battlestar Galactica (some more) and coursework. Okay I went for a haircut, played with my niece and watched Memento for the first time (The title is a quote from the film), but mainly I did nothing. I’ve had the sides and back shaved off to the same length I shave it all down to last month so it’s pretty cool to see how much my hair has grown,...
