Crazymazing

This page is crazymazing. Crazy and amazing. It’s a photo mosaic app, but it’s never-ending. Every image is used with other images to make one larger image, but the image itself is made out of tinier images which are made out of tinier images and so on…It does an amazing job of it, but it tends to repeat images too often, and it even uses an image to make a larger version of the same image, which is cheap. Still, it is amazing.

Computer Arrival Date

Grrr. For graduation I got a 15.4″ MacBook Pro, with a 100gb 5200rpm hard drive, 1gb of RAM, a Radeon x1600 Mobility, and also the 2-3 day shipping. We placed the order last night, and today Apple posted the estimated arrival date of my computer:


Click the pic!

That’s a full week from now. A full week. And I ordered 2-3 day shipping! I can’t believe that. It’s logical, though. It ships the 23rd because they have to put together my not default model. Then there’s the weekend (nothing ships), then 3 days (to be on the safe side, they use the larger of 2 possible estimates, because it’s 2-3 day shipping), landing on the 28th. I’m going to Cape Cod on the 30th for a week, so I might only get 2 days with my baby before I have to leave it behind…

To make matters worse, my girlfriend is going to Florida tomorrow morning and she gets back during the week I’m away. I might have to bring my laptop.

Also, I need a cool name for my computer. Any ideas?

Grad-u-a-tion!

Today I graduated from 8th grade (yeah I’m pretty young, never mind that. :P). I made a speech at the ceremony, and it was great. 😀

I wore a ThinkGeek tie, which says TIES SUCK in binary. Very cool 🙂 I’ll post some pictures later, but for now…ordering my computer! 🙂

Agebuilder.org Update

*Phew* After one day, forum.agebuilder.org and www.agebuilder.org are back online, with no hackers or malware present. I would recommend a virus scan on your computer anyway, especially if you’re using IE. 😉

Agebuilder.org Hacked!

Agebuilder.org, the hub of Age Creation for Uru, has been hacked…again. This time, the site has been given a .exe malware file that auto-downloads when you visit the site, so DO NOT VISIT AGEBUILDER.ORG! Thankfully no posts or wiki info were lost, but the site is currently inaccessible to anyone who doesn’t want a virus.

I’m an admin there, so I feel responsible, but there are multiple people working on it now, and I’ll hinder more than I’ll help.

This seems to be a trend now. This is the second hack against Agebuilder.org, plus the DJC was hacked not long ago and of course COBBS lost everything a year ago. There has been an increase of spambots as well. People seem to be plotting against the Myst community…:(

Happy Birthday, Blog!

On this day, in 2005, I opened my first (real) blog, Myst Otaku, which I left because I didn’t like the URL. I ported all my posts to my new blog, Love, Life, and Linux (Blogger Edition), which sadly met its demise on April 15th. From there I moved to where I currently am now on WordPress, because Blogger’s lack of support or functionality finally scared me away. So while this is not the birthday of this blog in particular, all of my blogs have shared the same 174 (including this one) posts*, so this is the closest I can get to the actual birthday of my blog. So, without further ado,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ZIB’S BLOG!!!

To celebrate, I’m going to bed and graduating tomorrow :P.

The reason for all the unsureness is that my first post on this blog has the ID of 5, meaning it’s the fifth post, I think…but it is the ‘Welcome to Myst Otaku’ post, so I don’t know…

*Total. Obviously this blog has more posts than the others, and there are progressively less as you go back. You get what I mean.

Happy Birthday to Darth Imperios!

Today is my good friend Darth Imperios’ birthday. He’s 15! Hooray, DI!

We’re celebrating by going out to a Thai resteraunt with a bunch of friends, then back to his house for cake and Republic Commando.

I got him a present, but I can’t say what it is here, in case he’s reading it. My hint to him is this:

It’s flammable.

(Tee hee)

Hey I spelled his name right!

Messing with the theme

I changed the theme of the blog again…It’s pretty fun, escpecially since I don’t have to worry about losing my css stuff. 😀

This one doesn’t identify what category the post is in, but it does catogorize them. Use the sidebar to see the categories.

Gone With The Earth, Wind, and Fire

This is a picture I whipped up based on the movie, Gone With the Wind and the funk band called Earth, Wind, and Fire (link requires iTunes).
