My coworker Juha posted this meme that I thought would make for a nice waste of time:

1. Open your music library in appropriate media program (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc).
2. Put it on random.
3. Press play.
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing.
5. When you go to a new question, press the “next” button
6. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool

Not half bad, I thought it would get more embarrasing. :-) It'll be interesting to see who kisses the drunk girl at my wedding - and of course I've never been to a prom, but it'd be a hell of a prom if it would be accompanied by Fireside.

Pictured: the shoreline at Hernesaarenranta near where I live looked absolutely gorgeous when I walked home from work this week, with its big ice blocks that have been pushed up to land. Unfortunately my digital camera doesn't work so this shot by my mediocre cell phone camera will have to do. It anyway reminded me once again why I want to live close to the sea.

Interesting to note that even Macs have cosmetic bugs. In this case, some bug is triggered the first time a Preview window is minimized, but not the subsequent minimizations. I'm surprised I haven't seen it earlier - of course, maybe it just hasn't happened before. It reproduced on a newly-created account on the same machine, though.

Minimized Preview window looks ugly:

Minimized Preview window looks cute:

Why does my XML-RPC calls to Advogato return "403 Forbidden" suddenly? Have I been naughty?

Update: Not anymore.

By the way, the JS-Kit instant-comment-functionality-sniplet is cool, I added it to my both my blog-like sites. Hey, this Internet thing is maybe here to stay after all.
