If this is your first visit to my blog, you may want to read about my distro-hopping. Caution: This review is short as the drive I had installed it on was acutely needed for other stuff. So I used Deepin for only a few days on and off. "Review" is an exaggeration, the follow is …
When I was making dinner, by necessity, the Cajsa Warg principle had to be applied again. I really had only one thing to make a decent dinner from: frozen pieces of salmon. Yeah I know, a rather boring form of salmon, but good to have when living in the countryside, the shop is far away, …
One of the more famous creators in free culture is Nina Paley. In my humble opinion, she is brilliant. She recently published some new Mimi and Eunice cartoons. Here is one: <img src="http://mimiandeunice.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/ME_530_Sorry-640×199.png" alt=""Eunice says to Mimi: I am sorry you make me so passive-aggressive" /> Source. I thought that was mind-bogglingly hilarious. Then I …
Nota bene: Denna post hade först titlen "Perkele polis", men jag har 29 nov. ändrat den för den blev lite missvisande. Finsk polis stormar in och beslagtar nioårings laptop. Detta efter att hennes pappa vägrat betala 600 Euro till maffian, förlåt, insamlingsorganisationen ska de vara. Insamlingsorganisation ("collecting society") har ju klang av euphemism. Så man …
Ja, vad ska man säga om hela soppan runt Thomas Quick/Sture Bergwall? Jag har läst Hannes Råstams Fallet Thomas Quick – Att skapa en seriemördare. Det är svårt att tro att så många domar varit fel. Vad som gör det möjligt är att de handlar om samma person. Det är ju inte ens säkert att …
I just finished Piknik na obochine (1972) by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. I read the Swedish version Picknick vid vägkanten (transl. Kjell Rhenström). The English title is Roadside Picnic. My sci-fi reading has over the years been rather limited, so I hadn’t even heard of the brothers. The book is very good. It is truly …
Schpam schpam schpam! Recently most s p a m that is (attempted to) be placed as comments here are about stuff I’ve never written about. It is not even the usual crap about v i a g r a, fake e x a m s and genius b u s i n e s s …
If this is your first visit to my blog, you may want to read about my distro-hopping. I once tried installing an earlier version of OpenSUSE, but it was extremely slow. That was on my previous hardware (processor and motherboard), where quite a few distros failed to install or were just bad in one way …
En ny statlig utredning har sett dagens ljus. Det som är lite märkligt med statens utredningar är att de verkar var minst lika mycket förslag på åtgärder och förändringar som en utredning. Jämför exempelvis med "brottsutredning" där man försöker med faktainsamling och analys fastställa vad som hänt, vem offret är, om ett brott begåtts och …
For today’s dinner I made chicken in oven. As usually, I improvise. It turned out really good. Alas, not something that happens every time, even if total failures rarely occur 😉 I mixed the following: Saffron Grated fresh ginger Dried chili flakes Ground black and white pepper. Chopped garlic Sultana raisins Salt Ground cumin seed …
If this is your first time here, I suggest you first read my general post about distrohopping. 🙂 WattOS is a distribution based on Ubuntu with the LXDE desktop environment (as e.g. Lubuntu is, too). A more lightweight system, that consumes less Watt. The default install is a fully functional system, but with rather few …
I’ve written about cranes in autumn and spring. Today I heard and saw the cranes’ southward migration for the first time this year. It was a big V-formation (skein) of about fifty birds. In Swedish we call it "plog" ("plow") formation. They do plow through the air, abandoning us ground dwellers for greener pastures. I …
