Ante litteram || Scientia vincere tenebras
I have started a thread on UbuntuForums to try and generate interest in developing an Angry Birds clone for GNU/Linux, using Ubuntu and Launchpad as the main vehicles.
If anyone is interested in working with me on this project, please use the thread as our central meeting spot!

Dear Roger, Armin and #TranceFamily,
Electronic dance music is a legitimate part of my life. I was introduced to it when I stumbled upon a house music channel on an Air Canada flight in 2004. From that flight, I began learning about trance music, techno and the various sub genres in all aspects of EDM. I also began following your (Armin’s) ASOT sets as best I could and watched it… Show me more →

“I want you to take over control,
Take over control, take over control.
I want you to take over control,
Plug it in and turn me on.
*ridiculous electro section, epic win* “
(Not so) Secret love of the Afrojack song, especially that mind-numbingly catchy electronic middle portion =).
Afrojack, Eva Simons, if you’re reading this, picture me giving both of you a big thumbs up.

I have troubles coming to terms with Android phones, but I am rather intrigued by the prospect of Android tablets. As someone who is in dire need of a relatively mobile PDF reader, I am eagerly awaiting the dawn of the Samsung Galaxy Tab and the wave of clones to follow it (it goes without saying that the iPad is out of the question).
Angry Birds has recently become available for Android, free of charge. While this game is simply a modern version of… Show me more →

Remember my Acer Timeline? The lovely thing that was the subject of various spats at Acer on tech support? Well, it’s died again. This time it’s found an incredibly creative way of doing so; the monitor backlight is gone.
So technically it works except I can’t see a damn thing.
Eff you Acer. Before an important deadline too.

Earlier today, Kalenree sent me this article. I must say that the solutions for the iPhone 4 reception issue are absolutely hilarious (the Band Aids are actually for sale). I notice that they get more and more absurd, culminating in the last suggestion of modifying one’s own appendages to use the damn device!
I showed the article to my techhead friend James (of the GTA4 potato chip video fame), and he quickly mocked this image up. I was rendered speechless for a few minutes and had to hold my nose so as to… Show me more →

One of the tales in the voluminous Hindu mythological canon speaks of a group of Yadava boys tricking a wise old sage into thinking one of them was a pregnant woman (a disguise – as part of the trick). When the sage found out, he got angry to say the least and vowed that the mace the boy was hiding under his clothes (to appear pregnant) would be the fall of the entire Yadava race.
The boys got frightened and ground the mace up into a fine powder and threw it all over the land, hoping this would dispel… Show me more →

Read and enjoy what I say; think not too deeply and detach all emotions save for the joy and pleasure of the act of reading alone.
