Dear Apple, As I heard the news about the death of Steve Jobs this morning I shed a few tears. At that moment I was unable to explain to myself why I felt so sad, since I never met the man. But as I write this message I’m figuring it out. When I [...] A while ago my friend Wouter posted something about the Humble Bundle (part 3). For those who don’t like clicking links: the Humble Bundle is a bundle of games you can play, and you can define your own price for them. So if you feel like the amount of games you get are worth [...] Nothing to see here: this is a post for my own reference. I’ve been trying to rid my irssi of the script nickcolor.pl for literally years now. It’s a handy script in theory, but very often it’ll display nicks with equal length in the same colour, or it’ll display a lot of (non-bold) [...] I’ve never bought a console for one particular game. There were always several reasons for me to buy them. Until now. Long ago, in 1998, I owned a Nintendo 64. At that point I was a geek at my school newspaper (we worked with Macs ^_^), and my friend the editor had this game [...] I almost never plan a holiday. The last one I planned was 3 years ago and consisted of 3 days in Denmark, which ended badly; long-distance relationships suck, especially when you try them with insensitive a-holes.

Now it’s never been a health issue to me, I might be less fit than the average person but otherwise I’m perfectly ok. Until I get depressed over something, and then the whole idea of being overweight just [...] As the title probably suggests, I’m about to tell you a disaster story. When I just moved into my new place I had grand plans concerning the technology I wanted in my home. I’m a big fan of watching TV series, so I needed some system through which I could just stream all downloaded [...] As of today, I’m a freelance translator again. My own little business is back, and today is my first day at work again. I’m back at IBM, and enjoying the familiarity and calm atmosphere. I work four days a week, leaving one day to do other things and socialise. As I indicated before, I [...] It’s been quiet around here. Very quiet indeed. I’ve been meaning to update, I’ve had many posts in my mind regularly, but I’ve been too busy with other things to do it. It’s the age-old excuse everyone has for not updating their blogs, but however tacky it may be, it’s true. Not all things [...] |
