FsPortal Development

Wow, I amaze myself yet again.

Managed to complete a whole load of the structure for FsPortal in under a day! I now have a template system to work with, plus a lot of the SQL stuff laid down.

Just need to do the user class and complete SQL classes, and then I'm ready to start on the fun stuff!

I will keep you lovely people up to date... but right now a Bristol session is calling!

Falklands 25

I must say, the Falklands 25 program broadcast by the BBC today was extremely good.

The sound quality was crap at best, and at times there was severe delay between the music and the singing, but the actual content was very good.

And yes, the flypast was late... but luckily the BBC extended coverage time to show it. So I was happy!

Safari BETA

I have been trying out Safari for Windows XP over the past couple of days, and my initial reaction is one of absolute loathing.

According to Mr Jobs, HTML and Javascript loading times are nearly cut in half from the ever popular FireFox. This may be so, I have not tried their testing program, but what use is this when communication times are so slow!

From what I've seen, Safari takes a lot longer to process the actual request, making the improvement of HTML loading times un-noticeable.

If Apple want to dominate this market, at least put out a piece of software better or equal to the competition! However, in my opinion: the layout of Safari for Windows puts it on a par with, or even behind, IE7

Trooping of the Colour

Most disgruntled at the moment... watched the Trooping of the Colour this morning only to find that the BBC stopped coverage before the flypast. "Never mind" thought I, "I'll record the highlights later on, that'll show them"

Bloody BBC then show the highlights late, and I miss the flypast on my recording.

I hate the BBC. Lots.

They'd better show decent coverage of Falklands 25 tomorrow afternoon (doubtful, my source says that the flypast is 1650, coverage ends at 1700) otherwise the shit will hit the fan big time!

Safari on Windows

Hasn't Mr Jobs just shot himself in the foot?

He always bangs on about how "crap" Microsoft is... but now decides to release a version of his browsers for Windows...

Hypocrite.

Still... if you can't beat them - join them :D

Prison Break over :(

Series 2 of Prison Break is over!!! Unfortunatly, it's going the way that 'lost' did, in that they're dragging it on asking more and more questions.

It's getting a bit surreal now.

Anyway, I've got a looooong wait for Series 3 now... so need to find some other Monday night activity to entertain me!

Best be off... D1 looms and still no revision!

Mac advert you will never see

"Watcha' doin' PC?"
"Playing a game"
"Oh yeah, which one?"
"Any."
"Oh"
[Silence]

Life.

Sucks.

Slowly coming round to the fact that I don't have a ruddy clue about most of the Physics course. Damn.

Looks like the next couple of days are not going to be fun... I bloody hate Winslow and Jackson.

Maths C2 seems to be coming along a bit better fortunately, so *finger crossed* that should go fine!

AdBux

Okay, this is kind of another pyramid scheme.... but it isn't a scam!

http://adbux.org/?r=WARlrus

Go there and sign up... you get money just for looking at webpages! It's so simple!

Freaky maths...

Just saw this on someones forum signature:

let a = b
a² = ab
a² + a² - 2ab = ab + a² - 2ab
2(a² - ab) = a² - ab
2 = 1

Ohhhh dear...
