Mobile

I've finally ordered that brand new Asus P750! It's to be in my hands in approximately ten day! Yihaa! I'm planning to purchase an 8gb flash-card and a Sony Ericsson bluetooth headset for it. =)

Locales

I hate it when I gotta use such kind of coding. =(

   1: String name = rs.getString("name");
   2: String nm  = new String("");
   3: for (int i = 0; i < name.length(); ++i){
   4:     char[] ch = {(char) (name.codePointAt(i) +
   5:             ((name.codePointAt(i) < 192 ) ? 0 : 848))};
   6:     nm = nm.concat(new String(ch));
   7: };

Spring

Huh, it's spring here already... and that damn torch upon the skies is pissing me off. It blinds and dazzles me -- I can't see anything for several minutes after coming back from outdoor.

Though I'm glad it's not snowing as it is in Moscow. :)

The Graveyard

 

Belgian game developers have produced a weird game called The Graveyard. Here's what their site says:

The Graveyard is a very short computer game designed by Auriea Harvey and Michaƫl Samyn. You play an old lady who visits a graveyard. You walk around, sit on a bench and listen to a song. It's more like an explorable painting than an actual game. An experiment with realtime poetry, with storytelling without words.

Nicely done indeed... costs 5$, but the only difference from the trial version is that the lady may die in full version. :)

Oh... here you can check it out. ;)

Believe in god? they can fix it!

I love that guy's style! :) though I don't think I'm going to use Ruby in any way...

...But your computer will be well-cared for. And you, Smotchkkiss, will have nourished it with your knowledge. In the eons you will have spent with your machine, you will have become part-CPU. And it will have become part-flesh. Your arms will flow directly into its ports. Your eyes will accept the video directly from DVI-24 pin. Your lungs will sit just above the processor, cooling it...
