A slow night
Mar 28th
Quiet morning today. Not as many as usual. Normally this would be around the 3000 mark after a night. But this is why I forward all my email for all my domains to my Gmail account now. I just don’t have CPUs enough to spend dealing with this much spam in the space of…
New screenreader project for Gnome
Mar 27th
Hmmm… Seems I’m not the only one thats taking this issue seriously lately. PeteS noticed that there is a new scriptable Linux screen reader for Gnome (alpha level 0.1.0, Python), Linux Screen Reader 0.1.0 (Default), posted on Freshmeat by four alphaWorks guys at IBM. You might like to try it out. It was added to…
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion — I’m truly addicted
Mar 26th
I should be spending this weekend previewing Guild Wars: Factions yet I cannot draw myself away from Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion long enough to spend any length of time playing Factions. Addictive doesn’t even begin to describe it. I have a horse now, and can move around much faster as a result, but the lands…
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Mar 24th
Stunning. Simply stunning. Even on my dated and ancient equipment, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is one of the most impressive single player RPGs I’ve seen yet. I think it could quite possibly be the best I’ve played yet. But I’ve only been playing it 10 hours so far, so thats not necessarily fact. ;-) The…
Extremely Critical Flaw in IE… Again
Mar 24th
I had kinda thought I’d finished posting for the day till I looked in my emails and discovered something I’m not too sure I like the sounds of. Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user’s system. The vulnerability is caused due…
Vint Cerf returning to NZ
Mar 24th
I have great respect for Vint Cerf. I read his new blog (when he rarely updates it) and I have read much about his work over the past 20 years or so. His current role with Google is of great interest to me in that Google appear to pay him just to evangelise the merits…
C4 Apologises. ROFLMAO
Mar 24th
This is so funny it hurts my sides from laughing so hard :-) Complaints about the controversial “Bloody Mary” South Park episode are likely to be forwarded to the Broadcasting Standards Authority, after television station C4 declined to uphold them. C4 apologised yesterday for causing offence by screening the cartoon, which features a statue of…
Clark’s facade starting to slip a little
Mar 24th
This is made all the funnier because in the Editors notes at the beginning of the David Parker edition of the magazine (its easier to describe Investigate based on who the target is) Ian even went so far as to say this was what the government was doing. ;-) Asked about Mr Wishart on Newstalk…
To hell with it!
Mar 23rd
Lifes a bitch and things are getting way out of control at the moment. Everything is starting to boil over and things that started as a family issue are now affecting my relationship with other people. So fuck it all. I’m pulling my head in and going to keep to myself for a while. If…
