Miranda 0.3.2

This is as good a time as any to join the Miranda crowd. Experience the excitement of running cutting edge software with no bloating nor ads. Customizable with layout, virtually every protocol and dozens of handy plugins.
For no particular reason I compiled a list of plugins that I have installed. You’ll have to find them […]

LOTR: ROTK ticket date set

Gotta love Sweden for being inflexible. Everyone knows what rating it is going to get. But due to regulation the damn thing has to be screened by some pesky government agency. And since they refused to do it on a workprint for various reasons the ticket release date has been drifting.
Since the actual release date […]

Tradition and decadence

One busy weekend researching the popular culture of one of the major universities in Sweden (and Europe).
Sounds pretentious doesn’t it? Well that is exactly what I was gonna say about the city and the experience itself.
Not even universities are free of cliches. In this case the grand motto is: “Att tänka fritt är stort, att […]

New 411S Firmware

Look here if you want the .bin file to use with LTNFlash. The new firmware is designated FS0F and “improves the playability for the Home-use players and XBOX”.
Haven’t had time to try it out yet but initial reports claim that the firmware is a complete success. Among other things it solves the Ritek G04 problem […]

Away: Uppsala

Just for the weekend. Getting a breath of fresh air and seeing old friends again. I’ll be back on monday.

Academic update

Note to self: Consider renaming “The week when the house of cards fell asunder .. again”.
Ahh, I’m sick and tired of all you stuck-up clowns in academic attire. You know who you are. For more reasons than I have time or desire to list, things have become unnecessarily complicated around here. New courses are are […]

DVD-R

Another stunning delivery by DiscAtOnce. I only ordered 2×25 Datawrite Classic / Yellow but I think that it’ll keep my occupied for a while .. I hope. For starters I’m gonna waste 12 discs on getting 6 seasons of Stargate SG-1 off my harddrive. Same goes for MacGyver even though I’m only half way through […]

WAP Archive Updated

I did a little work with Cubase to alter the midis to better suit cell phones. Some are still a little hefty though.
I think it could be worth checking out if you have polyphonic ring tone support and WAP via GPRS. The selection is limited but for a good reason. I’m considering adding this as […]

Hitachi RMA complete + Mobile

The replacement harddrive arrived by UPS today. About three weeks after initiating the RMA. The replacement unit was a 7K250 although sadly only 40GB, just like the RMA:ed unit. I guess they have a surplus of those drives since no one seems to want one. 40GB just doesn’t cut it anymore. Oh well. At least […]

DVD-R Media test results

They are all available in the forum. 4 coasters, 4 fully functional and 1 disc that I wont bother with right now since SmartBurn speed limit for that disc is currently 1x.
As you can imagine I’m fed up with wasting time and money on coasters. But I had to do this in order to be […]
