I finally got a new photo out! Admittedly it was under duress from a self-imposed deadling, but nobody is perfect. I’ve had a fair number of people asking me for a wallpaper version of this image, if you would like one then please contact me using the “contact me” form on this website, or leave a comment on this thread. It’s available in sizes down from 1600×1200 to 1024×768 for CRT users and 1280×1024 for the TFT crew.
…Got outta bed…
Sound like the blues? Yes. That’s my poor explaination for the lack of updates. Feeling blue, poor and stressed.
Normal service to resume soon, those of you who know me will know what I mean when I say I’m putting an edge on that sword ready for the bailiffs 😉
Anyone who wants to put some cash towards some decent personal defence, my paypal address is a hotmail one in the name of Denyerec.
Get it while it’s hot!
This thread details the incredibly quick fix for the firefox/IE security hole. I doubt this will be the last, but it’s encouraging just how fast the remedy came out.
Just thought I’d do some cross-site pimping, and add a link to a chum from #eve-online to the links list. Go, now, check out Rinnyweeeeeee!
I keep resolving to add more photos. I keep failing. Cheer me up and send me some money perhaps? 😉
This amused me, so I made it today’s quick update: The Infinite Cat Project
It’s damn cool if you ask me, but then I like cats.
Look.
I know there are some of you out there who insist on using Internet Explorer. My stats tell me this.
Some of you may not realise there is life beyond IE, some of you may simply not have known there were alternatives.
GO HERE and install Firefox. Yes, it’s a different internet browser! *Shock*.
Still don’t believe me? Have a look at this article and think again. Yes that’s right, now even respected US Government security type people are actually telling people to switch away from IE, their reasoning is that it’s simply so vulnerable to exploitation that it’s crippling things left right and centre (Though many of the people who’ve already moved will simply tell you it’s because it’s crap.)
Do the right thing. Set fire to a fox today.
Yesterday my girlfriend went into Barclays Bank to try and get her almost-useless VISA Electron card switched over to a VISA Debit card. For people in the UK who know, the Visa Electron is about as useful as a 1923 issue Deutschmark note. In fact marginally less, as at least you could still use one of those to wipe your arse. (Though plastic cards are useful for spreading thermal compound around and, rumour has it, grouting.)
The upshot of the affair was this. My girlfriend could not have a VISA Debit card because her credit rating does not exist. She can, however, have a BarclayCard Credit Card with a £2500 limit. If she uses the credit card to build up some credit rating she can then apply for the debit card.
Hands up who sees the issue we had with this?
They won’t give a debit card to someone who has no credit record, but they’ll happily throw you a two and a half grand creditcard your way. Errr, hello? This I don’t understand. Surely your credit rating doesn’t matter if you’re using a debit card as you can only spend the money you already have anyway!
Barclays are idiots and I think this only goes to show how hopelessly lost in “Credit Card Culture” the UK has become. Gah.
I’ve totally failled to keep the pictures regularly updated. I’m so hopeless.
My stats showed 1,800 unique hits today, which I thought odd. I’m going to install AWStats at some point this week to find out what’s going on, as I really can’t believe that many people would be passing through here. Something must be up with BBClone.
As for the photo updates… Apologies 
I’m going to try, really I am, but for some reason things keep distracting me from posting, it’s not like it’s a hard job to post one either. Gah, so damn hopeless.
