Crossbrowser issues

Oh man! Ignorance is bliss. I just opened up this blog in Firefox 3.5.7. The result:

I usually use older versions of Firefox since the plugins I frequently use are slow in being updated. If I don’t check my websites when a new browser comes out, this is what you get. t_t WHYYYYY?

Starting to wonder if I were a gifted child

Okay, so it’s not the best site because I write better English than that if I actually try but… it summarizes a lot of other sites out there. What if I can check (almost) every single thing on that page? Also know that I withdrew socially at least in elementary and most of highschool with a very clear formulated intent: kids my age just wouldn’t interest me. My elementary teacher thought I was a dumbbell though, as he recommended my parents I’d be better off sent to a lower type education (Dutch system, hard to explain). A few years ago I found out my score actually did not match the advice. When I asked my parents about it, they said they got the advice because: “He feared I would not be up for the social challenges”. It actually gave me hell on earth just to deal with st00pid in the first place, so great going pall. Thanks a lot! Now, I’m pretty sure that what I’ve come into contact with for the past 10 years does not even fit ’social challenge’ anymore but ’social problem’ and I am so not exaggerating that I’m pondering whether/how to fix the real problem instead of people’s binaries. A part of my time as a minimum, because “the force is strong with this one”.

Luckily some options were still open to me to pursue something higher, which I did. Even then, I took astrology classes 2 times a month and skipped classes. I skipped nearly 70 or 80% of my classes by the time I reached the 3rd year in Information Sciences. I never really did study or at least I have absolutely no memory of having difficulty studying at that level. I sure did have significant trouble studying at lower level where my homework was checked. *hurl*. I ended up failing at everything simply because my attendance was checked and that I had to show my homework. It had a definite impact on my grades, which just completely slipped.

Weirdos

On my list, I got them. XDD. They’re actually quite amusing. I’m a magnet for those anyways. What never ceases to amaze me is that for some reason, while they try anything to let me see them wank themselves on webcam, they come back for more (pain and mild sadism). XDD. The internets is.. well actually quite harmless for the occasional weirdo that pops up here and there but they’re so amusing. I asked him about his success rate today, didn’t answer.

What I truly wonder about is… I mean you see them on the tv and such, they must have success somewhere. Whenever and where ever that is… it’s hilarious and kind of sad at the same time. Evil even, if they’re not chicks over a respectable age. So remember kids, have an old hag lady on standby or as a second personality to take care of these characters (I know my readers are mostly female and younger than I am myself). As for me I smile at the thought some old guy with a bald head, big beer belly is truly thinking “what the hell can I still use on her so she’ll fall for it?”.

D-addicts going down!

Disaster strikes! Number one source of RAW and Subbed drama’s going down, so it seems. At least in the way and manner which we know it today. Where this will take us? I don’t know, but it surely isn’t going to be an improvement.

D-Addicts has been the number one public resource for years. Actually for as long as I’ve been in fandom I’ve been on this site. So sad -_-.

There are many many drama fans out there, so I’m sure that – even if D-Addicts ceases to exist or is unable to provide the large community in a different form – it’ll be possible to get the distribution going again. The only problem with that is, “the flow of files” is going to get disrupted for a while there when they decide whatever they will decide. The only answer and power we have to counter that as users / drama lovers is word of mouth. So more on this news as it develops.

Edit #1: Tracker will be closed starting Monday, slowly letting the torrents die off. Going animesuki style, a way to keep “the flow of files” for the large part. On the other hand, other bittorrent trackers will again get a new user base pushed onto them. And so the wheels on the bus…
