So I came across an animation I made when I was exploring Adobe Premier a few years ago. It’s about a penguin who sets off from Penguin Planet to colonise Earth, and a “bad guy” penguin who tries to stop him. So sit back and enjoy the mediocrity that is Pop Off the Penguin, episode 1.

There was an episode 2, and I’d started work on a third, but these seem to be lost to time and I don’t expect to see them again.

My toilet is revolting

3rd January, 2010 8:03 am

Toilets have simple jobs. They sit around all day, then when somebody needs to they come and defecate in them, and the toilet swallows it up. As jobs go, it’s hardly the most exciting, but surely more interesting than that of a basin or kettle.

Sometimes, the toilet’s job just isn’t enough excitement for a toilet, and it decides to revolt. In the case of my toilet yesterday, it decided to express its rebellion by slowly filling its bowl up to and beyond the point where the water overflows onto the floor. What a fucking bastard.

Nokia E75 bluetooth

27th December, 2009 6:42 pm

So the otherwise awesome E75 has some bluetooth issues. It seems it doesn’t want to connect to car kits.

One solution mentioned on the forums is to delete a bunch of saved SMS messages. It sounds silly, but for me at least it seems to have worked. I had some 2,000 messages in my inbox plus 200 sent messages. I deleted them all but the last 10 or so in the inbox and suddenly my phone connects to my shiny new MEX BT2750!

Publisher files on Linux

6th December, 2009 6:51 pm

Just putting this here for future reference, or in case anybody else finds it useful.

It seems impossible to open MS Publisher files on Linux (and I guess on Windows too if you don’t have Publisher), but convert.neevia.com will conveniently turn them into PDFs for free! Yay!
