I was writing a post and spilled juice on my keyboard. It's one of those bluetooth ones from Apple. Apparently is has very good range. Went to the kitchen to clean it off and then came back; the post was gone. This is all you get. I'll probably do a proper post tomorrow. :-/
Anyone interested in an OS X shell account perhaps? New machine, more storage, and no willingness to do any of the stuff I did before leads me to think about this. Will actually need to think this out more as this is a dual boot machine ...
Long time no see
Love Letters
Excerpted. For your reading pleasure.
So I've been bouncing between reading 1 Peter and 2 Peter, in no
particular order recently, and it seems today that it was more fitting
for you than it was for me. I encourage you to take the time to read
chapters 4 and 5 now, then go back and read chap 1 to the end at your
leisure.
(NIV version below)
1 Peter 4: 12 starts "Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful
trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to
you.13 But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ,
I like curves
And who doesn't? Like curves I mean. I'm not just talking about any old curves here though.
The QtCurve style for KDE is, as far as I can tell, an attempt to unify the desktop UI experience between Gnome and KDE, and a darn good one at that.

Remember, remember
*sigh*
It's september again. School's started. Unlike last Spring semester, where I had one class, was complaining about working and being a full time student, I now have two classes and am working while being a full time student. S'kinda neat. I should be finished w/ coursework in just a year, assuming I don't fail miserably. Master's research? I don't really think so.
New 4.3.0 thingies in Macports
Some kindly soul has updated KDE 4.3.0 in macports (jeremy, not me). Some other kindly soul has updated the dependencies for amarok-devel in macports (yup, me). Maybe one day (hopefully, before 2.2 is actually out) Amarok itself will also be updated.
Heeeere he comes to save the daaaaaaaaay!
For 10.4 users oh yaaaaaay.
That should be sung to the tune of the Mighty Mouse jingle btw.
I committed a change to macports which should allow users on OS 10.4 to compile KDE 4.2 – once they sudo port sync. Enjoy. And uh, lemme know if it actually works. Only tested this out on automoc which, let's face it, isn't the most rigorous of evaluations.

Reset
I had promised some huge revelation to a countdown I randomly started. Randomly started and randomly guessed at what it was for. Unfortunately I didn't, as promised, regale with tales of God's goodness, the miracle of prayer, and how faith in Jesus brought me back to life
.
Amarok 2.2 svn on the mac
Apparently if you go through all the trouble of typing that one command: sudo port install amarok-devel, amarok trunk will be thine.
Why don't these things ever work so well for me? Don't I deserve it?
As things seem to be working I'll update normal amarok to 2.1.1. Someone should tell me if it works since for me, it'll probably not work without some haxxxing. You know, because I don't deserve it.
I wonder if it's because I'm getting an android phone...
Do they know?
Macports Updated
The KDE group of portfiles've been updated to 4.2.4. This might fix the massive breakage that occured when the 4.2.0 tarballs disappeared into the InterEther months ago. Or not.
Some other changes are the addition of liblastfm, taglib-extras and qtscriptgenerator. That's right, everything you need to get your bleeding edge fix of amarok. Except amarok itself.
Installing it requires stuff I'm not going to put in a portfile because Saturday's pretty much done and I've already got it working for me. Muahahahahahahahahahahahaahaaaaaaaaaah.
Look before you leap!
The following pertains to Aaron's blog post. It is in direct response to this sentence That means you'll look and work native on Windows, Mac, KDE and GNOME if you write using Qt.
To which I replied via comment.
NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.
I've said it once and I'll say it a thousand more times: Qt does not look native on Mac OS X.
As a matter of fact it currently (4.5) looks like the bastard step-child of 10.3, 4, 5, and something else.
The Unfinal Countdown
A while ago I started a countdown to I didn't know exactly what. I just felt like doing it. It was expected that as I got closer to the time that I'd know what exactly it was that I had been counting down to. Turns out I was right :-) And also wrong. I thought maybe the countdown would have been an announcement that I'm going back to school. Graduate School. Again. I'm already back however and have almost survived one full quarter. As the time has gotten closer I have been ...
April's Fool
I feel like I should blog about something but have nothing particularly compelling to say. As that's never stopped me before, and for no other reason than it's the end of the month and my sidebar tell me I have no entries for May, I'll do it anyway. Time to retreat to the good ol' standard then: Bitch, bitch, moan. You were warned.

so nice, I had to talk about it twice (today)
Psalm 118:18 or, how I managed to give up porn and eaked out enough courage to talk about it tangentially.
Prologue
So I've been attempting to read the Bible, the whole Bible, for years now. It's a remarkably boring prospect though. Call me sacrilegious if you will but that is honestly how I felt and sometimes still feel about it. I believe if you're honest you may just admit the same.
