Nooo… My uptime :(

After 3 months uptime, I accidentally pulled the plug on the server while reaching for one of the other cables >_<

Goddamned magic quotes

Such an ass feature in practice, runtime magic quotes especially – automatically protecting things going into an SQL statement may have a use, but adding slashes to things that come OUT of the database? WHY!?

And they’re not even magic quotes; they’re magically appearing backslashes>:P

I wish I didn’t suck at German :(

First I had a dream that I was a spy in Nazi Germany, and my inability to speak the language was making it hard to keep my cover; and then I find out that to be a tech dude at google you need to know a foriegn language.

Looks like both my literal and metaphorical dreams have gone sour…

Getting linkage

I would seem to have been discovered by someone from the land of .br, and mentioned on their forum. How rare.

Mmmm… first gig -_-

I pretty much accidentally went to see the mad capsule markets yesterday when my sister’s friend got ill; too much noise and not enough music for my tastes, but it was fun anyway. I got home at ~2am after several hours of jumping round, knackered to the point where I would for once be appreciative of an early night, but nay. Now in school, so tired -_-

McQueen were supporting; they weren’t as good an act (I’d guess it was just the audience not getting into it as much) but I liked the music more ^_^
