The lists of people that died during the year fills newspapers, magazines and tv shows. Most lists show more or less the same people, e.g. the most famous terrorist in history and the guy that made electronics fruity. My list is not something I really prepared for a long time, and two of them I …

Bill Gates har sällan fått någon kritik i svenska gammelmedier (tv, tidningar etc), vare sig när han var chef för Microsoft, eller nu. Microsoft har alltid utmärkts för en sak: viljan till monopol. Se gärna gamla senatsförhör med Gates på youtube. Jag kommer att tänka på den gamla frågan från Nixon-eran som löd: "Skulle du …
För många svenskar innehåller en svensk jul det märkliga kulturella konceptet "Kalle Anka på julafton". Själv tröttnade jag redan som tonåring (vilket var flera decennier sedan), och har nog inte sett ett helt program sedan dess. Det finns en hysteri, som jag begrep när jag var barn, när det knappt var något "tecknat" (som det …
If this is your first time here, I suggest you first read my general post about distrohopping. 🙂 Lately, I been trying out Lubuntu, version 10.10, as my "test" distro. I haven’t tested it extensively, so this is not so much a review as my short impression from installing and using it a bit. Lubuntu …
Jag hörde på radio i går att det fanns en elev på polisskolan (inte filmen, utan den riktiga i Sverige) som använder religiöst motiverad slöja. Det sades också att det var en jättelång tråd på Flashback. Även om Flashback nuförtiden ibland får riktigt sansade referenser i de vanliga media, så hänvisas det ju också till …
This is not about instruments in the Underground/subway, but piano music found on youtube. There is a Swedish somewhat un-modern expression "ta det piano", literally "take it piano", meaning "take it easy". But I digress. The following is not CC or public domain music, but can be listened to freely, at least at the time …
Denna post har varierande tempus. Eller är det "varierande tempi"? Fast då låter det som man läser olika delar i olika hastighet? Idag lagade jag lax. Frysta laxfiléer i ugn med bara peppar, salt och några droppar teriyakisås. Det senare gjorde nog ingen skillnad, för smaken, men den förlängde denna blogpost. Smörklickar ovanpå och sedan …
If this is your first time here, I suggest you first read my general post about distrohopping. 🙂 Note from Dec 2021 Chakra Linux had changed URL, and I updated it, and erased some faulty ones. Still some old ones remains, but you may find them on wayback machine. Not that this post contains any …
Just for the fun of it, I decided to add feed links. Feeding is built into WordPress, but I just wanted to add visible links for clarity. Being goodness gracious unrealistic, I imagine someone actually subscribing to this blog! :O However, it took some effort and searching on the web. Some suggestions mentioned putting php …
In our family we regularly make cereals from roasted whole buckwheat. It is delicious and has the advantage of being a psuedocereal, not a grass like for example wheat and barley, which some (or even more than you think) people are sensitive to (Coeliac disease but also other). Regardless of that, eating pseudocereals makes food …
Saying that copying is theft is like saying taking a photo of my face means I lost my face Never leave culture to corporations and lawyers to decide.
