FUCK. This is one exciting blog I maintain here, isn’t it? I mean, where else on the vast interwebs can you go to read what some random dipshit has to say about computers, old music and his perverted sexual interest in female androids?
Nowheres, that’s wheres.
If you want a gateway to the new “Information Super Highway”, then all you need to do is type this into Netscape Navigator’s “U.R.L.” bar:
For all those who just lowered the newspaper, looked askew over their bifocals and shifted their tobacco pipe playfully from one corner of their mouth to the same corner of their mouth, just in a different position, yes! The “World Wide Web” will one day be the sum of human knowledge at your fingertips on a sleek and modern “Personal Computer”!
So, stupid anachronistic attempts at humour aside, did you notice that I can embed a YouTube link directly in this here blog?
Do you find this useful? Well too bad, because I’m not really fond of doing this. I much prefer you to open YouTube in another tab and load your video watching lilnk the old fashioned way… the way we did it when we were younger! You kids get off my lawn!!
Anyway, back to my idiotic attempts at humour, I remember when Lycos was taken seriously as a “Search Engine”. I remember when the best “Search Engine” around was something called “Web Crawler”. Ha!
Back in 2000, I think, Lycos was sold for $4.5 billion. Just recently, the domain and all its associated gobbledegook were sold (along with other properties) for $3.6 million. Oops. Guess they didn’t see Google coming.
And now I’d like to completely derail this current topic and get back to what I was going to post about in the first place. I’ve finally dun gone and upgraded my laptop to run Windows XP SP3.
See? It made them happy, didn’t it”½
That combination of exclamation mark and question mark is called an Interrobang. Somehow, I pictured something called an Interrobang to look a little different….
I’m rambling. I do apologize, though I am not actually sorry. So that makes me insincere. Oh well.
Anyway…. the mark of a terrible writer is the amount of times he or she uses the word “Anyway…”
Anyway….. I had been reluctant to upgrade that laptop to XP SP3 because when I had originally done that, it fucked up my custom theme and made me switch back to using the default Windows XP theme… which is fucking ugly. But this time I figured out that if I used the neat little UXPatcher application to remove the themeability of my XP setup before I upgraded… I could use UXPatcher to reinstate it once SP3 had been installed.
And it worked. Lets now take a look at how much of this post was actually on topic, and how much of it was merely rambling about nothing and making idiotic jokes.
So that’s about what you would expect from this blog. Let’s just do a quick check to see if I have anything interesting to say.
No.
I’m hungry. Goodnight!
