whatever an erver is… it's mine!

So, I try to log into Facebook tonight (about 12:45AM Western Australian Standard Time) and I get a “Service Unavailable” message regarding a DNS Failure. Sure enough, all interpretations of Facebook.com (including it’s various cnames) don’t work…

So I decided to do a whois… and well…

So, yesterday I said I was attempting to get Mac OSX (iDeneb OSX86) working on VMWare Server 2. Well, I didn’t have any luck. None of my attempts loaded any further than the grey screen of doom and gloom. Time to do a bit more research, although by the looks of things, VMWare Server 2 just doesn’t cut it for running a Hacked Macintosh OS!

So, it’s nearly 5AM. You’ve pulled an all-nighter, finished Crysis (what a shit ending too…), watched a heap of military videos on youtube and have caught up on all your series. What do you do? Well my friends the answer is simple: Attempt to install a hacked foreign platform operating system into an even more obscure platform!

I am using iDeneb 1.5.1 which I acquired from <insert location here>. I’m not going to tell you where to get it but if you have half a brain you should be able to figure it out. Heres a little bit about the specs of the host machine;

AMD X2 6000+

4GB DDR2 @ 400Mhz

ASUS M3A78 EMH-HDMI

2009 was the cruellest year, breeding forums out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring a barren wasteland of posting activity. The forums kept us warm, a bastion of refuge in forgetful snow, feeding the curious masses with a trickle of information. Summer surprised us, coming over the impassable alps of silence and fear, continuing into the garden of nothing, and went on in sunlight. The patrons drank energy drinks, and spoke of the mystery that is WALAN.

Well, for some ungodly reason I didn’t sleep, and amongst other lucid non-shane specification items, I was for some reason reading about the former Prime Minister Paul Keating.

After reading his many speeches, obtaining an understanding on his point of view on many many issues that were and are still current in Australia, I come to realise that our Prime Ministers of late are ratshit; well, at least in my mind. It’s a shame I was too young to vote when Paul Keating was last up for election, because he would of had my vote in an instant. He was known for his great use of the english vocabulary as well, used in both political fashion and as an extra kick in the teeth when he was hating on the former Prime Minister Howard.

There is a heap of speeches on his website, Redfern Speech and his many speeches on Australian Economy and Society, especially his one regarding the media and it’s quality of reporting, and it’s influence in Australia.

All in all he was a great person, and I wholly believe we need a politician like him back in the reigns, to steer us away from the xenophobic, dumb, racist, ignorant and ill-informed nation we are becoming (at least, in my relatively young and underexposed mind…)
