36 + 42 + 51 = 129! ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE PUSHUPS IN ONE WEEK. Not in a row of course, but I'm quite proud! I did 20 in a row just now, which was the last workout for the week. I've really surprised myself with this, and I actually feel pretty good, too. I've slept like a baby the whole week, and though I know it might just be coincidence, I like to think that this little effort was all it took (I usually get one or two nights a week with shitty sleep)

While I know there are a ton of these available on the web already, I've not found anyone covering both setting up UTF-8 and getting Home/End working properly (as in, jumping to the beginning of a line and to the end of a line, instead of scrolling to the beginning and end of the buffer, which for some reason Apple thought was brilliant). I'm also going to cover how to get word movement (ctrl+arrow left/right) working, as well as getting backspace and forward delete functional.. This was all tested and is fully working even with SSH and GNU/Screen running. I'm using OS X 10.4.11 Tiger.

Haven't updated for such a long time.

To summarize: Wine is good (right now), so are studies (in general), work is decent (as usual), girlfriend is the best thing ever (nomnom) and there you go.

Actually, I think I'll elaborate this a bit more. In the past months it's been kind of hectic. A lot of things has happened. My former relationship ended back in November, whereas we both moved. She moved away, I moved a whole story down. I like it in my student block, so I figured I might as well stay for a while longer.

Haven't updated this blog for ages.. But lately I've been busy with school (tons to do) and work. And I really haven't had anything to talk about.

I'm back on Firefox cause Flock crashed a lot, we eat meat now and then and I still use Openbox. That's about it.

So, the last couple of days I decided to give Flock a go. So far, it actually works fine, too. Seems like it's a bit snappier than Firefox, and these social networking features aren't really anything I've tried, until now.

I'm actually writing this throug the "Blog this" feature when you right click a web page in Flock. Works flawlessly with Drupal and a range over other systems providing an API.

Not sure if I'm going to end up with this as my normal browser, but I'm still willing to give it a try even longer.

Here's a very good video I found on reddit by Douglas Crockford from Yahoo!, covering the history and basics of javascript. I found it quite interesting, perhaps you will too. Video below.

A friend of mine just showed me this extension called Googlepedia. For me it was just what I needed. When you search for something on Google, perhaps only to have it display a link to Wikipedia, it also displays a wikipedia article alongside the results. Quite nice! Screenie is below.

Screenshot!

You can also expand and hide the article entirely, if it keeps getting in the way. Nifty.

I know there are people who not necessarily know about these, and they sure as hell make life easier.

First, there's the issue of the two clipboards existing. One primary, which saves everything you mark (not dependant on X), and the other, often used by GTK+ and others, where you copy and paste text using more widely used methods, mod+c and mod+p. I've noticed that if you try to paste text you marked, then mod-copied, and then try pasting it by usign the normal middle-click, it won't paste, because the ctrl-c actually overrides. Atleast, that's what frequently happen in my experience.
