World in conflict

Published by admin under Gaming

Got my copy yesterday.
Not too sure about the game play yet. The cut scenes are nice and the packaging is the best I’ve ever seen.

Not fussed even if its shit. It has the best gimic ever.
I’ve had keyrings, music cds, posters, metal cases. All that is shit. This games comes with a piece of the freaking Berlin wall.

Bwall

The other crap is nice too. It’ll be the first game box I’ve kept in years, its made out of flag material.
It comes with a history dvd that I’ll actually watch.
It comes with a 10 day multi player trial disk.
It comes with a nice manual.

Game might be shit, dunno yet but all signs point to good.

Migrating eats balls.

For the last few years I’ve been using a simple php script for posting stuff. I like it as it uses flat files rather than needing backend databases like sql.

Made it easy to move between hosts, update and edit stuff myself.

Its not getting developed anymore and its not opensource anymore so it cant just fork. Getting hit by spammers every day and its missing stuff I want. So I’m bailing.

Installed word press.

Setup a rss feed from cutenews.

Opened feed. Saved content locally.

Deleted all my articals.

Imported my arvhives, rssed and saved, delete and repeat until all content is acconted for.

Import rss feeds into wordpress.

Clean up broken ass code elements from each post, repair EVERY image link, set categories.

Hmmmm need to replace my gallery too, does not support a plugin I want.

Replaced gallery.

Imported old data.

Cleaned up mess from import.

Deleted all my old content.

Fixed as many broken links as I could find.

Deleted shiteload of legacy content.

Stupid internet.

I hate the fucking cat.

Published by admin under Pets

So I’ve had a weird smell in my computer room for awhile.
Really frustrating..

Its all old cat. She either loves me or hates me. Hard to tell with cats.

She likes to sneak into my room, bonus points if I’m in there and shit on the floor. In the middle of the room.

Great fun, I’ll be gaming or watching a movie and be interrupted by the smell of piping hot catass. Sometimes though she makes noise and I catch her. she skids around the house (Tiles)� while I call her names.

Naturally I clean, mop and disinfect.

The wierd thing is as much as I did that, even with fuckface locked outside or in another room the smell came back.

Its not like I was lazy or dirty, I tried all sorts of cleaning shit, in desperation I even took to using� bleach, vinegar� and RUBBING ALCOHOL. Perhaps it was in the tiles or something.

I had candles going.
Windows open.
Nothing helped.

Like Ben’s room I imagine :) Hi Ben!

So eventually I get super pissed at it and resolve to move my desk so I can close my door when I’m not there. It blocked the doorway slightly.

I start moving desks and tables around, investigating while I do so.

I found:

* WHORE CAT HAD SHIT UNDER A CUPBOARD.
This means she either crapped on the floor and moved it under or climbed ontop and crapped down the back.

* PISSED MY FUCKING FILING CABINET RUSTY.
This is why I started moving stuff in the first place. I caught her with her� front legs flat on the floor, ass in the air as high is it goes spraying on it.

So clean and clean and move the cabinet…stuck to the floor. I move it and clean it. As I moved it the cabinet made grotty marks on the tiles.

My room is closed now. The cabinet however still smells and I’m screwed, its full and the drawers don’t come out..I really need to turn it upside down outside and sandpaper the base.

*Sigh*

Fucking cat.
