Wow, that past week was hectic. Had 3 assignments due this week and the busy part is now over. I still have 2 big assignments left, one on Monday and the other one on the following Monday. The first one is nearly complete, just need to write another 2.5 functions and it's done. The other is to fit a GUI on the previous assignment so it's just a matter of fixing the connections.
Also, had slow internet for the past 4 days and it was excruciatingly slow. Loading mail and news is snail-like let alone some videos. It was so slow that I refrained from reading my Google Reader because so much stuff comes into my Reader everyday. And it doesn't help that this week I had an exceptionally numerous of news tabs opened on my browser.
Lightroom came and soon I will be able to edit the wedding photos soon. I am quite amazed how fast it installs on my computer. Barely a minute and the whole thing is done and ready to get a-processing. But having said that I really don't want to be like this guy. I'm scared.
There's been quite a number of things on my mind lately but I don't have the words nor the time now to verbalize it. I think I have been doing too much thinking for my own good. Unfortunately, these sorts of thinking doesn't benefit me in whatsoever way. Just to satisfy my intellectual side, but no applicational use. It will all sort of make sense when I do get around to saying it.
News of the week:
This popped out on The Age and immediately caught my attention. The arguments are all for the wrong reasons which further shows how far we can go to justify such bad ideas just because it's "beneficial" in some odd way. But it doesn't stop there. Oh no, it doesn't. Few days later, another link came up as sort of a follow-up on why polygamy shouldn't be a bad thing. A link to a forum of a site which is primarily for expectant mothers and/or mothers with very young children. Their responses to that article in The Age were, by and large, shocking. Sure some of them joked about it but some were like "I don't care as long as people are happy with it". Seriously??!! Mothers having this kind of response? This, folks, is hedonism at its core. Have we gotten so liberal about sex that we've stooped this low? Sure I'm not surprised about such things happening but it is still a pretty big deal when you do hear about it.
I am now living in the second best place to live. Nice.
Without these 3 people, we would still be using crappy internet services and no digital cameras. I'm OK with no digital cameras but internet...oooh let's not go there.
Richard Dawkins is coming to town. Possibly, just possibly, it may not be good.
So, does that mean if I glued the chip from a PS3 on my uber 40 inch LCD TV, I will get better TV recordings? Awesome.
It's interesting that 20-30 years of personal computers that design slowly crept in to PC makers to make things functional and stylish at the same time. Same with handphones, laptops etc. So basically, it goes like this "Make it work properly, then make it look nice". Too bad Windows didn't get that hint well.
Would you use it if you happen to be standing next to a person wearing this when a gas attack goes down?
The recent sex scandal on David Letterman was a very interesting one. From the way he was talking about it in his show, he knew what he was doing was wrong all the long but it's not wrong unless someone else caught him. When the heat's getting too hot for him, his senses came back on and confessed. There's a lot to learn from this, especially when it comes to self. Do we have that same mentality? It's not wrong until someone catches us in the act? Are we getting away with sin just because no one catches us?
There are some perks living in an underground nuclear missile bunker/silo. For starters, you'd never have to worry about a nuclear apocalypse.
It would be quite funny to see 550 geriatrics bowling on the Wii simaltaneously.
Daymn. I eat these fairly regularly. What foods are not considered dangerous any more?
Interesting article on first impressions.
If nonsense can sharpen your intellect, that may explain a lot of things. So, if I keep watching episodes of Spongebob Squarepants, Fairly Odd Parents, Family Guy, American Dad and other non-sensical shows, will I become an Einstein? And if that were true, what sorts of nonsense did Einstein have when he was growing up?
Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize. That's...a bit fast
