iBurst Modem For Sale

Tuesday, July 19th, 2005

If anyone is interested in an iBurst Desktop modem, drop me a line at i386 at kruel.org. Its less than 2 months old and comes with whatever came in the box. I’m getting ADSL at my new house so there is no need for me to keep it around.

NOTE: Modem will work - Its being unlocked this week.

The Taxi Club

Saturday, July 16th, 2005

I found my cross dressing friend “Victoria” out last night on Oxford St - all her friends had left her because she forgot her photo ID. So we snuck her into a tranny bar - it was soo weird at the Taxi club. They had a huge mirror on the dance floor so that the “girls” could dance and look at themselves at the same time :D. Oh and some gross dude thought Victoria and I were sex workers.

Geek Bands

For some reason today I was thinking up names for good geek bands.

The most excellent one I came up with was CTRL + K + C and the Sun SPARC Band.

[Rant] Worse than outsourcing

Wednesday, July 13th, 2005

Recently at work I’ve been doing a lot of refactoring to allow my framework to be a little more flexible and scalable for a new job we are about to commence. Anyhow, another team had to build a specific part of our framework to allow us to-do the job - the code does not fit our design correctly nor is it really up to “standard”. So I guess I have to change 10,000 lines of code before the fucker is even usable and not prone to System.OutOfMemoryException’s on fucking 2GB+ RAM Developer machines.

10 types of people I hate

Friday, July 8th, 2005

Yeah, I decided to compile a list of the types of people I hate because once again I don’t have anything constructive to say:

  • 1. People who wear sandles with socks
  • 2. Those people who say hateful things about other cultures at Town Hall and expect you to convert to their beliefs
  • 3. Emo’s. They always have something whiny to say about their life on Live Journal then randomly write poems about death.
  • 4. People who wear socks during sex.
  • 5. 13 year old Girls who shop at Supre and walk around with their g-bangers hanging out.
  • 6. The way snooty cashiers look at you when you buy condoms.
  • 7. Homeless people who spend all their money on meth
  • 8. Journalist Trolls (John C. Dvorak for example)
  • 9. That guy who thinks he has everything better than you. And does.
  • 10. People who stop using languages like JAVA when they can’t get the undo functionality to work in their customised text editor
  • No software patents in Europe, requests EPO review instrument

    Please Don’t Call Me

    Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

    One of the advantages of not having a mobile back-in-the-day (Two weeks ago) was that people couldn’t call me. It was awesome. I could go home/out and relax.

    Someone who shall remain un-named but strongly linked told work my new mobile number which has proved fatal on this date I’m having. Im sitting here with my boyfriend, in a net cafe on George St - working.

    Romantic.

    Oh and if you don’t like my english skills, sit on something nasty.

    What thee, thou say.
