]]>A judge has ruled that three students can't unveil there findings on the gaping holes in the crappy public transit RFID cards. Fortunately, Defcon already distributed their paper and the lecture's PDF to the 7000 visitors.
Typical. Instead of fixing the problems, you just gag the people trying to tell about it. If nobody knows, there is no problem. Right?

Yesterday, flicking channels, I thought "What the hell am I watching, and what a fucking waste of time this is!".
Anyway, today I ripped the signal cable out of the TV and out of the wall-socket, rolled it up and chucked it 'where the cables go'. This TV will only show stuff that we want it to show from now on.
/me whippes out a book... No, wait. I have some Photoshop'ing to do.

This is the stuff I'm after:
No nonsense, no flash, pure images. :)

Kudos to Apple for not being the arrogant Mogul. Somehow I wouldn't expect this kind of e-mail from Microsoft, apologizing for their Fuck-Ups. 
First impressions so far:
]]>Normally, pubs would be packed. Packed with smokers and non-smokers. Happily living together having their beers, club-sodas, juices, waters, rum-cokes, gin-tonics, beers, whiskeys and fags, cigarettes, cigars, pipes and what not.
Not anymore.
Thank you government for killing social life. Thank you for being the royal pain in the ass. Thank you for lying about, well, everything. Thank you for killing the businesses of another group of hard working people. Thank you for deciding for us and everyone else who do not need deciding for.
For the sake of all these people working in the bars, cafés and pubs; I sincerely hope these 800.000 promised non-smokers will save these private entrepreneurs from bankruptcy. And if they don't, with their big mouths, here's already the big FUCK YOU to all of them. Support your local pubs, why don't you...
Ireland, 1400 pubs gone bankrupt. Manhattan, 800 pubs and cafés gone bankrupt. A few examples. I'm not glorifying smoking. I'm merely saying that smoking has existed for 3000 years or more and that 4.3 million people still support this bad habit where 80% of pub-goers do smoke. Non-smokers have had centuries to build their so badly wanted smoke free circuit, but it is not there. It just isn't there! Why is that? One of my close friends owns a café, and she can get fined for having a cigaret after closing hours! (first offense €300,-, then €,600-, €1200,- and so on until you lose your permit) Imagine having the police busting in to your own house for smoking a goddamned cigaret! Gawd, I'm pissed off. What the fuck is going on in this country!?
I can have my fag outside. Sure! But why bother, there is nobody to talk to inside anyway..
Freedom of choice! That, my friends, is what this is all about...
And in case you were wondering where this bullshit is coming from, take a load of this hero in the EU:
Our government has silently ratified this week. Thank you very much...

I've enlisted in one of the evening classes that are given at the 'Da Vinci College'. For 24 weeks, one night each week on Tuesday starting from the 30th of September, I'm on 'French 1' detail. That'll be getting classes, making homework and watching TV5 a lot.
Eugenie really knows how to speak French, but it annoys the shit out of me that I can't even follow a conversation about what the weather was like. Did you enjoy the duck? That was quite a nice walk, was'nt it? Where are you from?
Well, I'm looking forward to it. Somehow it's a nice feeling to start learning something again.
