You Can't Stop Da Funk by Binärpilot

So Ubuntu Karmic Koala, 9.10 was released, and I was at the launch party in Oslo, hosted by Redpill Linpro.

been using it off a memory stick for a while(beta version) and installed the final today using wubi, and it’s pretty impressive.

and I got Google Wave, which I have to say is just as impressive as Ubuntu, so far only used it for chatting and solving sudoku, but getting started to write about it on a more practical view and see how, and what it can be used for, seen from a programmer, designer and/or webmaster’s point of view.

If you know any, or are yourself either of these, please message me: t…@g…e.com

Adult Only Sensoria

Yep, I finally(!) fixed the blog… and quite frankly, no idea why the fuck this happend…

so anyways, whats happend since Immersiva?

Not all that much… I’ve taken some more pictures, which I’ll get around posting on my deviant art page when I sort it all and fix up anything bad etc.

Other than that, my friend Othilicius moved to dundee(UK).

And I’m going to be more active on the Fribit front, both as a developer and fronting them a little.

I got a new phone, not that fancy but it works… A Sony Ericsson W980i

I’ve successfully killed 0 people in any game the past month(thank Secondlife for that lol) (oh and BZFlag as well, me totally failing at shooting, and Under a steel sky where I only get killed)

oh and we had a election here in Norway, and guess what, Venstre(liberals) failed epicly(damn them, I voted for you!) and we got the same damned goverment that I don’t like(except for the prime minister)

The Rabbicorn Immersiva exhibition at IBM 3

“What are you?”
The boy said to her
The Rabbicorn thought
Then replied “I am not sure”

“Can I ride you
Like my bike?”
“I bet you could
If that’s what you’d like”

So he grabbed her horn
And climbed on her back
Pointed at her sister
And yelled “Attack!”

That how this scene starts, in the exhibition “The Rabbicorn” by Immersiva at IBM 3

The other day I was walking through IBM’s Sim in SL when I stumbled across this exhibition, called The Rabbicorn.

The maker Bryn Oh makes these kinds of stories in sl, as well as Machinimas. The point is to make a immerse experience for the viewer.

I was stunned over the visual quality of the scenes as well of the details, the story is just brilliant and it’s worth to join sl just for this.

You’ll find the exhibition here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/IBM%203/57/51/24

you’ll need SecondLife to view it, and I encourage you to join in.

Be quick though, the exhibition closes 1st September!

You can find me in SL under the name Thor Furuseth, drop by and say hi!

Sis' girl

I better get used to that soon….
Sis just got a tiny little girl ^_^

anyways, lovely girl, and I can’t wait to spend more time with her

(I guess this is the shortest post I’ve made ever lol)

Gabranth speedpaint by Jonepone

Momsepomsen for tagging me in this kind of anti jante thingy…

the whole point is that you are to write 10 things about your self that you think is good.

and SHE tagged me -.- (and my friend Othilicious)

let’s just jump into this and get it over with:

1. I’m good with languages

2. I think I’m pretty good with my camera(see previous post)

3. I’m good with computers

4. I’m pretty good with security, though I ignore my own advices.

5. I’m good with maps

6. I’m always on the front with new technology

7. I like to share my knowledge

8. I love to make things with my hands

9. I’m good at reading (but not always understand it lol)

10. I get interested in problems easly and want to find a solution to them(if that is a good thing always)

So I guess I’ll tag Joe and Wyrihaximus it’s you two’s turn to write 10 positive things about yourself and pass it along to someone else

I have to admit, this is maybe the hardest blog post I’ve ever done lol

Beautiful couple

here’s a sneak peek on a upcomming post

So a lot have happend and there is a lot I want to post about but some things just don’t make it, here’s the things that I orignally planned to be posted about.

and we’ll start in the “wrong” order.

21st June  Medieval festival Oslo(20th-21st June)

The left Image was among the last I took, close to the end of the day, met this couple while taking pictures of the dueling arena, they caught my eye cause they both looked like they popped out of a time machine ^_^ (click the pic for the DA page)

a few months ago I posted some twitter bookmarklets for ipod and iPhone, and Sorry to say, but they won’t get any updates any time soon Just don’t have time for it when I work on my new profile portal thorerik.com and the sudden shutdown of my old host(and then return to the old backup host, which is outdated ).

Also posted a youtube video a while back where I explained a idea I had, basically being a more secure version of for example what wordpress is.
The concept code is continusly developing, and I’ll probably open up the source either this month or some time during April (might work on it during the Gathering 8th-12th April, drop by if you’re there, seat 1 @ row 31 )

btw, just quickly back to the project over at thorerik.com, that might(!) also be open sourced, We’ll see

still trying to be active on twitter, mostly end up reading tweets(with over 200 followers and following over 300 there’s a lot of tweets O_O)

also on the plans is to create more tests of apps for iPod/iPhone, as I use that all the time, and think there is way too few tests of actual apps(many write very subjective reviews, I try to be some what objective when I review things )

one review that is also coming up is Safari 4, and Firefox 3.1(now renamed 3.5 according to some news sites), and not to forget final version of IE 8, the beta’s have been very impressive(considering IE7 was terrible).

Also trying to get listed on a norwegian blog listing called Blogglisten.no, and hopefully going to get some more traffic If that happens, more posts will come, and they will be WAY more frequent as a treat to all of you regulars

Last but not least, I will begin to vlog too, as It’s a bit easier, and it’s a bit more lazy :p

Again, thanks to all of you who visit regularly :) <3 you

I’ve been thinking of doing a Vlog, as I got lots of thoughts, but I always tend to find it hard to put it into writing

what would you guys think of that?
