| Life is lame | |

| In life nothing exciting ever happens, nothing truly exciting anyway. I go through some levels of excitement but it always turns out to be not so great. Each moment I decide whether I want to go back to bed or not, to retreat into my room and watch some lame video until I forget that I have to do something tomorrow.
There are no great memories, just the memories that people decide were good for me, I really don't give them any special meaning other than their face value. I look forward to the future only if it means being past a mundane situation. It's like trudging through deep mud and not even knowing if its worth getting to the end. It's so difficult making any meaningful friendships with people when I constantly judge everybody and fear of being judged myself. It's not something I do on purpose, I don't know how it happens, it's automatic I guess. When you walk passed a retard you think "There's a retard!", am I right? extreme example but it's the same. And so everything is just boring, lame and unrelenting. There isn't much to look forward to, there isn't much to enjoy in the present and the past isn't part of the equation. I don't think depression can be cured, I think that its just a realisation of the world and human society, a state of mind that sees the world for what it is. To be happy is to be ignorant. Stop smiling, it's making me uncomfortable. |

| An experiment in colour | |

| Well I decided to make some changes to my stylesheet for no good reason. I think it looks pretty good. I need a new title image though, I don't know. | |
| Conky buses! | |

| So to show off my new code tags I'm going to show you a script I wrote to get the upcoming bus times displayed right there on your desktop!
There are three bits of code required here, first there is the code to fetch the timetable data for the current day from your local bus service. You're unlucky if they don't provide the data in html form, although if the timetable doesn't change often you can simply create the timetable file yourself. This is my code: getbusses.sh:
That one is quite simple, it shouldn't be hard to make one up for your timetable provider. The next piece of code is the workhorse. This one is executed every minute by conky. nextbus.pl:
As you can see it is rather strait forward, it cycles through each line on the "buses" file and determines if that bus is yet to come, if it is then it is printed. The program exits when $outputCount amount of buses are printed. The third and last piece of code is the easiest. Its the code to put into your .conkyrc file, here is my whole file to show context. ~/.conkyrc:
And that's it! All I need to do now is become social and want to know when I can travel to the city to go clubbing! Oh goodie! |

| Nullam rewritten! | |
| 24/7/2009 - 22:17:35 - 2 comments - By | |
| I have completely rewritten the code for nullam.net from the ground up. The site is now implemented using smarty templates, it is about a million times more efficient and comprehensible.
Its amazing what little oddities I found while reviewing the old code. Lets just say it's very evident that I am making progress in my programming proficiency. If you come across any errors or any odd behaviour I want to know about it! Please send a brief email to d47@nullam.net or simply comment on this post. As for functionality there is absolutely nothing new in the slightest! Enjoy it! P.S, I love smarty templates. |

| FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
It's happened again, my brand new 1tb hard-drive just died in a flurry of clicking and jerking. Why out of the four hard-drives I have does it have to be the one with all my anime on it! it was FULL of anime, 1tb of anime! One of the drives was completely empty but it had to be the full one. If someone I know dies I can shrug it off but taking my anime! I'm enraged! Well from now on there is no question that I will be backing up everything I have. Every gigabyte I buy will be two, the cost of hard-drives to me is double what is labelled. From now my computer speaks in raid 1. At least its under warranty =/ |
