so what is irony?
I see irony in many things
Being hit by an ambulance that was meant to take you to the hospital
Going to war to make peace
Getting sick from a medicine

I also find irony in being able to access things easier after a system is set up to prevent access to it.

or shall I say, well done sir you just wasted much needed resources on something that is guaranteed to not work intended.

It's kids stuff

Ok today I went to youtube to watch one of those caramelldansen clips (yes ok I'm rather retarded that way) and enka videos only to find it inaccessible, thinking it was down for a bit I tried again a few hours later only to hear that it was blocked over some video the Indonesian Government found offensive. This may sound odd to those who know me but I'm going to try and be neutral here.

I think they're missing the big picture here, they spend enough time talking about and deciding to ban some website and ignoring the real issue the country's facing, like lack of widespread education or the widespread malnutrition for example. This youtube thing is a non issue and it should stay as a non issue, any call to pull the video down just shows the inability to take crass, offhanded criticism like an adult.

I just hope this is just a knee-jerk reaction like all those other times otherwise they can continue the ban and stop calling themselves a democratic country at least that way they'd be honest.

for those with simpler minds: If you don't like it, don't buy it!

May I have your attention please...

I can has Internets!!

In all seriousness, I'm finally connected to a proper internet at home, no long dangly cables, no more going to internet cafes and most importantly no more constant dial-up disconnection, ok so it still has limited download limit but it sure as hell beats 20 minutes to download a 1 mb file, so now I have less reason to go out of the house and in a very short period of time I will be able to describe myself as the 21st century version of a caveman.

As I always say, increased technological access means decreased mobility (or the need to be in this case)

multi tasking

I am currently surfing through the net with 3 different browsers opened, Firefox, Opera and IE, out of the 3 I actually prefer firefox but for some reason it's extremely unstable on my office PC, it crashes, quits for no reason and shows computer languages on some pages.

Opera is by far the most gimmicky browser I've ever used the tab browsing and built in search engine is a standard in any browser these days but the rest of it are probably things I won't even need, nifty but that's about it, the upload time is definitely slower than firefox.

With IE I don't have that much of a problem except its excessively slow loading time which the main reason why I switched to the other browsers.


Post Scrpit: I just had my fears confirmed, it's not the browsers that are unstable, it's the damn OS.
