Thu, 10 Sep 2009 12:40:36 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 Some horrifically overdue updates http://mostfoolhardy.org/2008/03/01/some-horrifically-overdue-updates/ http://mostfoolhardy.org/2008/03/01/some-horrifically-overdue-updates/#comments Sat, 01 Mar 2008 23:17:03 +0000 Alex http://madebyalex.org/2008/03/01/some-horrifically-overdue-updates/ It’s been several months now since I last said anything noteworthy (bar expressing my disgust at the science funding crisis) and it’s probably time that I wrote something. Thanks to AppleCare my ageing iBook miraculously changed into a macbook before Christmas by virtue of some faulty bluetooth chip, my mac mini has since transformed into a powerhouse of an Intel Quad 2 machine running Fedora 8, by virtue of Christmas and has now got two monitors (running fairly happily under compiz, which is as the internet leads me to believe; is a complete miracle or the norm- depending on who you ask). I am currently in the first year of my A level course studying Physics, Chemistry and Math/Further Math and have just taken my first set of module exams back in January and am expecting results imminently, and am just at the stage of looking at Unis and courses. Any University propaganda is welcomed heartily, especially if it discusses the merits of a Computer Science and Physics joint honours course or either of the two as single honours.

I expect to be posting reactions to my AS module 1 grades, the Asia concert tomorrow night and the hopefully upcoming Jonathan Coulton concert sometime this month.
And my driving test. >_< So until then,
Alex.

In other news, Kristopher Tate is rolling out another Zooomr update on Monday, which should be fairly awesome, and should see some concert photos from me. :D

Picture 1
All critisism welcome for the new design.

The new theme is also going to mark a whole new version of themak.org, the move from the brilliant PALGN free hosting to an ASO shared hosting plan where I will also move this blog from WordPress to a hand made django weblog platform.

I now only have 4 exams left until I’ve finished with my GCSEs, and I feel fairly confident about how I’ve done (which is good) and I’m now only a few short days away from purchasing my guitar and hosting package.

In other news: Statistics coursework looking less like a 50 tonne weight descending on me. Normal updates resume other end of the tunnel.

userbar- woot

Here’s a quick teaser of the website that I’ve been working on for a while.
As to what it does, I’m not telling quite yet.

Teaser 2Teaser 1

Oh and A Django site..

Will be custom building an inverted scheme soon, and enabling some fun features.
Nearly finished inverted theme, just have to tweak display of PNG files in IE and make a cool new slider image.
Also MAC OSX overshadows microsoft totally in the sidebar in IE, quite apt. ;)

Also congrats to Tim, who won the IT prize- quite deservedly I might add. Thirdly and finally- I’ve just got ahold of NSMB and apart from the nasty spine art that plagues EU DS games, it’s a wonderful game and makes me wonder why there are so many second rate DS-titles when Nintendo shows just how much better it can be done.

Also the comments are being moved back to wordpress which will take a while, and the dates will be wrong.

Now sxore is quite an interesting beast, I first heard about sxip when looking through the firefox roadmaps to see it’s potential to tempt me back :P but I read a comment which linked to this quite amazing presentation which I found really interesting so I signed up for sxore within 10 minutes. After watching another highly energetic and interesting presentation.
