Kahlerisms

Urgh. I’m starting to really hate the free to air networks.
It’s not bad enough that most of them are too arrogant to even broadcast an EPG to my digital STB – it’s more their scheduling. It’s just no longer convenient. Who wants to come home and have what they’re watching dictated to them? That’s like.. oppressive and shit.

So, I like to get my shows via other means. Recently I found a little app that makes it easier than ever. It’s called TvShows. It’s really pretty cool – you open it up and it’s got a list of like a kazillion TV Shows. You click on one, hit ‘subscribe’ and it’ll prompt you for the last episode you watched – you tell it and then it does the rest!

As soon as the next episode is seeded it’ll launch your bittorrent client and automagically download it for you. How awesome’s that?

Legalities aside, for such a simple app it sure is one of my favorite things.

So according to the little calendar thingo – I’ve updated five days in a row!

I reckon this must be some sort of new record – I don’t think I’ve updated as frequently since arkspage 1.0 back in like ’98.
Using my new found motiviation I did a bit of maintenance too. Updated to the latest version of WordPress(2.3.1), made another backup, installed some plugins, did some theme hunting. That kind of stuff.
Unfortunately the wrapping problem still exists in this version – so I have to continue to be aware of it. If I just write what I wanna write in TextEdit though, then paste it in it usually formats properly. I also find the WordPress editing window thingo double spaces…

Maybe it’s an Opera thing. I dunno.

Anyway, incase anyone’s actually reading this I’m trying to keep the content coming. I’ve even already started working on content to post tomorrow. I might even get organised enough to have a content-reserve so I can just login and hit ‘publish’ and all my rants I’ve saved in draft format can be automagically published. That’d be cool.

Ooh – I added a new category too – CarCam. This category will be what I tag upcoming posts which contain pics I take while in the car (and I take a few of either interesting cars, Mercs, or annoying vehicle behavior)

Anyway. That’s all for now I think.

Lenore, the best girlfriend in the world, recently returned to blogging. It would be amiss of me to not include her blog on my blogroll!

So, welcome Brethred to the blogroll.

Awesome awesome awesome.

It doesn’t get any better.

Is there anything Hello Kitty can’t do?

Please welcome Lost City to the blogroll.

From the site: “A running Jeremiad on the vestiges of Old New York as they are steamrolled under or threatened by the currently ruthless real estate market and the City Fathers’ disregard for Gotham’s historical and cultural fabric.”

Fascinating. Almost inspires me to do one for Melbourne

I added a new category so I can track shit I want.

So, the first item for the official wishlist:

Rotaliana Multibook

Is it a book, a charger, a clock, a readling light, a calendar, or just really expensive?

ALL OF THE ABOVE!

ayayay woot yay.

Awesome
