Snippet: Funny comment on Slashdot
January 21st, 2003Snippet: Packet Loss
January 18th, 2003*snippet* I’m currently experiencing around 75% to 100% packet loss from my main ADSL ISP to several sites across the internet – including the server my blog is hosted on. Obviously this is causing a severe impact on my connectivity (sustaining a connection where less than 25% of the data reaches you is unmaintainable) and hence why there is a chance there may be no more entries today (and I had around 3 to finish off). Drat. It’s taking around 5 minutes just to get confirmation that my blog server has accepted my post 
Snippet: Over 100k words!
January 18th, 2003*snippet* Looking at my statistics, I’ve just passed the 100,000th word mark in my blog! Yes, I’ve written over one hundred thousand words on this ‘ere blog (the previous entry took the total to 100,466). Wow – that’s a lot of typing (and it doesn’t include the images: but if a picture is worth a thousand words and I’ve got around 200 pictures – than that’s around 300,000 words 
)

Snippet: Nooo! Spam!
January 10th, 2003*snippet* Nooo! I was just checking my email before taking a bath (email last checked 30 minutes ago) and there are 760 spam emails awaiting me. Over 600 of those have already been “Blacklisted” on previous occassions. I’ve now got to spend 10 minutes updating my filters to try and catch the rest of them automatically.. *grrr*
