There's a lot of interesting schoolwork I have to do at this time.
Digital fundamentals turned interesting today. We are apparently going to write a program that interfaces with a little peripheral device, a LED or something.
Cool, driver development! Alas, we do it in DOS(!) Hopefully they will switch to Linux soon.
My mother has said that her café, Det lune hjørnet, has one or more websites made by students as projects and so on. When I googled for it I found this picture. It's a friendly fellow mentioning the excellent book café "Det Lune Hjørnet" on a Virtual Tourist discussion forum. I wonder who this might be ? ;-)
The site of "Det lune hjørnet", however, is nowhere to be found. The closest I found was this picture.
Hah, I solved Rubiks cube!
Now I can begin practicing Speedcubing :-)
Ah, I like Wikipedia.
I stumbled upon a link to their pages on language origins and it's just fascinating.
I think my wife has a certain affection for languages and grammar (at least the ones that aren't ridiculously simple ;-)), I wonder if she will like this site?
I had been planning to write about the Miyazaki film "Spirited away" today, since I saw it again yesterday, but I forgot that I was working in IE, not mozilla. So I lost my entire article in one click at the "back" button.
Instead of starting again I wasted some time at This Miyazaki fan page, and refer you all to My wife's weblog.
I would like to buy that CD, but there are some tariffs/customs issues I have to work out before ordering it...
I went to the zetatalk site to view their nonsense in person, and I was a little shocked to discover that there were actually norwegians out there who had taken the time to translate a great deal of the site. However, they may not have been updating it lately, since on the page
http://www.zetatalk.com/norwegn/thub.htm
there is a cute little timer reminding us that the apocalyptic polar shift should have occured 1 year - 3 months ago (actually it says Countdown: -1 years 3 months but we have to use some goodwill here. After all, who could know that the timer would still be active today? ;-)
On the parallell page on the main site, the counter has been silently removed and all descriptions changed to "sometime after". Of course...
I wonder about these poor translators. Are they still believers? Will they fall for the next hoax?
They should have looked up on Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy
