Vista Woes
Thursday, 03 May 2007

Here I am again for my monthly update!

I really need to find more time to blog. Once a month is pitiful. So, what's my problem with Vista? Typical Linux incompatibility that's what.

Gnome has a pretty good disc burning tool built in. If you pop a blank disc into the drive it notices and provides a virtual directory you can drag and drop files into. Once you're happy with the layout you can burn the virtual folder onto the disc. Simple.

T +9 days and counting
Sunday, 01 April 2007

What to say. I've been busy with work lately, not much time for blogging. I really must make more of an effort.

PS3 rocks, a bit like an uber PSP. I've been thrashing it through the undergrowth in the Stuuka on Motorostorm. You can find me on PlayStation Home under mallchin.

I played the Wii last night too. A whole different beast but watching little Superbunny fly can be just as entertaining.

So that's about it. I'm enjoying a lazy Sunday in the sunny weather. Adios.

PS3 - 5 days to go!
Sunday, 18 March 2007

I popped into Lakeside today and pre-ordered my PS3, just 5 days until launch!

Owen reckons the Xbox 360 is the King of the Hill but I have my bets on Sony. There's been a lot of bad press surrounding the PS3, little interest, too expensive, but the proof is in the pudding. This little fanboys sticking to his guns.

I have a small 14" CRT for now. It hardly does it justice but at least I'll have something to look at. I have my eyes on a 42" Sharp model sporting full 1080p HD, rawr!

Meow.

I got a new job :) More of an old job perhaps -- I used to work there before but have been freelancing these past couple of years. Its all good though.

3.03 downgrader finally out -- w00t! I've downgraded my PSP and back up to 3.03 OE-C, and have been playing with the custom waves and such lately. I had hoped to update Lua FileManager but I've been really busy with the new job. That kind of explains the lack of posts too hehe.

Spam - Get your own back!
Tuesday, 16 January 2007

Who doesn't wake up to find their inbox full of Viagra and small penis advertisements?

Let's face it, spam sucks!

I just happen to have noticed a new Email Marketing community site open its doors recently. It bills itself as a resource for email marketers to share tips'n'tricks of the trade. Most notably, methods for working around spam filters, harvesting email addresses and the like!

What does this have to do with me? My suggestion is make yourself heard!

BF2 Freeze Fix
Tuesday, 09 January 2007

Battlefield 2 has to be one of the best games I've ever played, I even bought a new GFX card to play it -- Eye-popping graphics, jaw-dropping game-play and mother f*#&ing bugs! Yes, even silver linings have a cloud.

It all started with an nVidia update in what seems like a lifetime ago (I blogged it here). Having spent a few days getting BF2 (somewhat) working in the first place I was a little hesitant to start changing things around, but curiosity got the better of me and I found myself updating to spanky new drivers. What a mistake that turned out to be :(
