Disloyalty day, 2006

Tue, 02 May 2006 01:49:49 GMT

So, it seems our fearless leader has seen fit to declare May 1st Loyalty Day.

...

There's not really much one can say to that; it really speaks for itself.

That said, I for one do not feel much loyalty for our government. I mean, sure, the idea beind america is great, free speech, for the people by the people, but, let's be honest, how much of that is actually true?

So, that's why I'm singlehandedly and arbitrarily declaring May 8th "Disloyalty Day". On that day, show how much you're fed up with the difference between the ideals and reality in whatever (peaceful, hopefully not too illegal - we're against the government, not the citizens) ways you can. Burn flags, hold a protest march, write letters to your representatives, or just whine about it in your blog, whatever. Hopefully it'll cause some small semblance of change. And, if not, well, it feels good to flip off The Man, even if he doesn't really care.

(do I have an FBI file now, I wonder?)

Google authentication problems?

Tue, 21 Mar 2006 21:18:35 GMT

It seems that google's having some problems with their login infastructure - I'm getting 5xx errors on a number of service login pages, including pages.google.com, gmail, and finance.google.com...

So apparently the people who run the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes website are cease-and-desisting anyone who links them. I just couldn't help but test it myself.

Google's RSS cache

Sun, 25 Dec 2005 20:44:44 GMT

Interestingly, the google feedfetcher cache can be accessed by other programs, and very easily. Simply URL-escape the true feed url, and tack http://www.google.com/reader/atom/feed/ onto the beginning. For example, http://www.google.com/reader/atom/feed/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.livejournal.com%2Fusers%2Fbdonlan%2Fdata%2Frss . The resulting feed will be cached and converted to Atom. Sites having trouble with RSS feed bandwidth usage might want to try this tactic ... Then again, who knows how google would feel about this being widely used.

Unfounded rumors

Thu, 08 Dec 2005 04:39:24 GMT

It has come to my attention that there are rumors floating about that I have a livejournal. I would like to take this moment to assure you that such rumors are entirely unfounded. I have not, and will never lower myself to that level; it would be a betrayal[1] of all that I stand for.

I hope this has helped to clear up some misunderstandings.

Blah. English term papers suck.

Must try to crank out at least two more pages tonight.

Tired. Easily distracted.

Oh, I'm here now.

Thu, 25 Nov 2004 04:27:12 GMT

Well, I finally created a livejournal account, because it seems all the cool people have them now.

...

I suppose I should write something about my life here. Meh.
