It's a bugger to upload photos to LJ's scrapbook, though I love the large storage space I have there. It's another bugger to then put them into a nice format for posting, since LJ's interface can only produce a table. *shudder* I apologise for using a table for layout, but I'm too tired to manually remove the table markup OR to manually produce a ( Read more... )

I didn't even want to read my flist before seeing the DW season finale, so I busied myself with other stuff while waiting. How geeky was I? Geeky enough to make a function for computing the height of the shelves in an IKEA wardrobe depending on how many shelves I decided to buy. ( want it? come and get it! )

For my and whosever needs it reference: how to be able to select any LJ viewing scheme, including Xcolibur and Dystopia. This can't be easily found, and not at all in the FAQ, which is the most annoying of all things, I guess.

If I had ever wanted to play puddle hopscotch under the pouring rain and among a forest of umbrellas ready to hit, Bucharest in autumn would be my wish fulfilled. As I never entertained such masochistic thoughts, it's just a bloody inconvenience.

Mind you, I never had the chance to see an authentic European city in the rainy season, but it surely ( Read more... )

A new Opera version is available (and recommended, if you use its mail client - they just found a vulnerability in it) and I can't download it because of the stupid evil firewall. So, if any merciful soul can download it and send it to me (and comment here, to let the other merciful souls know the task is done ;-) at enigel at gmail com, you'll ( Read more... )

Correction to the previous post: too busy to eat, but not too busy to waste all morning trying to remove all traces of ZoneAlarm Pro, so I could re-install the trial version - the only one good for setting special rules for eMule and BT ports. I call the time wasted because I failed - RegCleaner, Internet advice from forum gurus, nothing helped, ( Read more... )
