Malware in my theme

Up until a few days ago, when I made my last post, I thought I had a very nice theme worked out for my blog. The only issue was, posts kept loading really slowly, as if they were waiting for something. I didn’t know enough about it to figure out what could cause it, [...]

Pixelhobby: Mario

Recently, my mother opened her hobby shop. One day before opening she got an offer from someone at Pixelhobby, and she decided to sell it along with the stuff she’d already stocked. Pixelhobby now accounts for a large part of her profits.

But what is it? Well, remember Ministeck? Pixelhobby works the other [...]

Mario 3 in Java

One of the greatest old-skool games I remember is Super Mario Bros 3 on the NES. I bet my mother remembers it even better as she actually beat the game before I ever got to :>

MacTijn stumbled upon the coolest thing since Mario on the NES: Super Mario Bros 3 in a Java [...]

iStuff gets you guys (or chicks I suppose)

In the train this morning I took out my brand new iPod, since I needed a good dose of metal to wake up with. There was this really cute guy sitting across from me, who kept looking at it. As I usually do when people stare at me (it happens, although it’s probably all [...]

YMCA

Sometimes my friends can be rather weird. My friend Sim has dedicated her time to positioning her kid’s male Barbie dolls in the YMCA-positions and taking a picture of that. I wonder what other strange hobbies she has ;)

Shopaholic

Sometimes a woman has to stop and realise ‘my god, I bought way too much stuff’. On a sidenote, this trait is no longer only characteristic for women. However, my sin isn’t shoes or make-up, but hardware and gadgets. Because I started getting an income in April and my geek side has been browsing [...]

Evil scheming (or just finding a place to live)

My friend Bram and me have been planning to move for a while now. Not like moving in with each other, just in the same area if that’s possible. As soon as I get a stable income we can put such plans into action, and since that won’t take too long anymore, we went [...]

Killah Sudoku!

Yesterday I solved my first killer sudoku. I bought this nice red and black book which looked dangerously complicated, because regular sudokus have me yawning within five seconds. I must say, this is a whole new way of making a sudoku and quite tough at the start. Look at this example:

The idea [...]

Wii replaced

As many of you might know because I only whined about it a million times, my Wii broke about 3 weeks ago. It wouldn’t go past the starting screen, and if it ever tried, the system would hang after that. I doubted which way I should go: send the Wii directly to Nintendo, in [...]

When you wake up and feel like deleting stuff, stay in bed

So I felt like deleting lots of stuff, or something. Or I just didn’t think about it when I accidentally deleted wilgje.net from my domains list on GoDaddy (thank heavens that they fixed that fast for me, or I would have been unable to blog this!). Or when I deleted my whole phonebook along [...]
