What others are saying about the Joggler

“Well the O/H was not impressed that I bought one as she said its just a useless gadget but now she listens to the internet radio through the aux input on her kitchen mini system. She has all her fav stations saved and as I type she is dancing around the kitchen and just said this thing is fantastic”"

Brad Google Wave 1256816593911 490x331 Started using Google Wave today

Thanks to Avron for the invite, I’m now able to have a play with Google Wave, first thing I notice is that you can’t hook it up with your Google Apps account – and you need to come up with a new username just for the Wave.

Lets play!

It’s important when you are selling something online to secure the page where the customer gets the goods so that search engines dont index the page, many webmasters make this slip-up, heres a couple of quick queries you can tell your friends about – or just send them to this page where I will add more as in time…

If you understand the principle – you are looking for pages indexed in google that confirm someone has paid for something and are now offering the links to the goods, you can start playing…. here are some queries to get you started:

The problem with Linux

Posted by Brad | Posted in Ramblings | Posted on 26-04-2009

So I have ubuntu la de da 9 on my vista laptop courtesy of a virtualbox partition so I don’t have to worry about fucking up by beloved windows laptop that I have setup to do anything I need so I can do business online.

And time after time I get the same shit with linux (which I have been having a stab at once every couple of years since ages ago), you want to do something, so you must find out a program that enables you to do it.

You look around google for people that wanted to do the same thing and you end up with a program name that means nothing to any normal human being, which you then install through a command line using lots of “flags” that again mean nothing to anyone that does not do this sort of shit all the time.

So you think, great, now I got my program, it’s even open source and thats amazing… but wait a second, the installer fucks out because you didn’t have some other stupid thing installed, so you go to some ugly wiki shit to get that, work out how to get hold of it and put it on, but then oops… that shit needs you to install something else from some other place.. and so it goes on and on and on… until yet again you go mwahhhh fuck it, I will just stick with windows where I can actually get stuff done rather than pissing about with installers and getting nothing actually done.

For those wondering what the hell I am trying to do, I’m wondering how to crack WPA wifi network passwords with ubuntu and aircrack-ng.

And have lots of things installed that may or may not be related to eachother, but ultimately from all these shitty youtube tutorials made by people who do just spend their lives on the command line rather than producing things that are intelligible to someone new to linux… anyway.. I have achieved nothing so far.

But at least I have a work in progress that I can choose to go back to whever I can be bothered to have another stab, at least I found that this virtualbox thing is a nice way to virtualise an OS to play around with.
